Quote from greg_slideways :

Because neither of us can have both feet touch touch the ground it is a bit high. My dad took the motorcycle endorsement course, and the instructor said you should be able to have both feet on the ground. makes sense to me, although this is our first bike and to be honest I would think that is a bit of a safety thing.

31" seat height is not very high. You don't need to be able to flat-foot both feet. Toes work fine.

What is your height and inseam?

I'm 5'7", 30" inseam. My bikes over the years:

- 2002 Kawasaki Super Sherpa: 32.7" seat height
- 1990 Kawasaki Ninja 500 (EX500): 30", raised at least an inch with aftermarket, performance-oriented dogbones (added height at the rear grab rail was 1.5")
- 2006 Suzuki SV650: 31.5", raised at least an inch or two for more aggressive steering geometry
- 2006 Suzuki SV1000: 32"

Quote from greg_slideways :

1991 Honda CBR 750 Nighthawk

All stock, but I do plan on lowering it, and getting a few bits for it.

My dad bought it so we are going to "share" it haha but I plan on doing a lot of riding. (:

Lower it? Why? So you can totally screw up the handling?

Quote from Inouva :

I like the new hair style =)

Adorable.

No worries, logi.

Yeah, first bone I ever broke at age 25. It felt very weird, didn't even really hurt immediately after it happened, so long as I didn't move. Adrenaline's funny like that. I was wincing the whole 4 hour drive home, though. Then I had to very carefully slide out of bed in the morning because I couldn't sit up. The good painkillers I got worked nicely. I still have some I've been saving, just in case.

I've been told I'm an idiot for going to races by myself due to circumstances such as those, but I don't have anyone else to go with me.

I got back on my street bike 8 weeks later and was back on the racetrack 12 weeks later. Nowadays it only bothers me a little in the shower and in bed if I lie on that shoulder.

Yeah, same club, same classes. I may get bumped up to Expert, though. We'll see. If I'm offered Expert classification, I'll probably take it.

My pace is at least mid-pack Expert already and there are only a few guys in Amateur right now who can run with me and I them. They may go Expert next year, too.

Donington, Silverstone, Cadwell Park, Brands Hatch, to name a few off the top of my head.

The Dandy Warhols - This Is the Tide

Apparently these guys have been around for a while. I just found them, though, and I'm really digging their sound. Way more popular in the UK than over here, apparently.

Well, it's been a season of some big ups and downs. Won a race in my first race weekend at NJMP Thunderbolt, then went and broke my collar bone in a big off the following round at Summit Point back in May. Went back to the same track 3 months later and did okay, about 1 second off my previous pace. Then followed that up 2 weeks later with the final round at NJMP Lightning.

First race went well with a 2nd place after the guy in first with his monster motor making 30 more HP than me pitted with engine problems. Second race I started from the back of the combined grid of middleweights and ultralights. I dispatched with the whole ultralight grid in a single lap and started to go after the middleweight guys for the hell of it. Then I put myself into a bad spot setting up for a pass and got run off the track, at which point I was faced with a choice: slam into the steel guardrail at 90 mph, or hit the ground. I chose the latter. I just rolled a little while the bike suffered only minor damage. Still sucks crashing out of the lead for being stupid.

I ended up 2nd overall in the Amateur Atlantic GT Lights championship, 15 points behind that guy on the Ducati 1000SS with the worked motor.

Still got a great pic from the first race.

Hopefully arrives tomorrow. I heard this thing must have an insane sound lets hope its true because it wasn´t that cheap..

probably not worth it.
nowhere near hifi quality... its just headphones with leds, buttons a mic a logitech logo and a hefty pricetag

I concur. Logitech isn't exactly a name associated with good audio quality. Passable for most people, sure, but by no means on par with many others.

If there can be a Christian Church, a Jewish Temple, and a Church of Scientology in New York City, why not an Islamic Mosque as well? Just because a small group of idiots claimed they committed a terrorist act in the name of that particular religion? As if they're representative of the whole.

I live about 25 miles west of New York City. I could see the smoke rising from the towers in the distance on the day of the attacks. Why should it bother me if someone wants to build this structure near where the attacks took place? This isn't a holy war as our right-wing media would have us believe. The motivations of the attackers 9 years ago had little to do with religion and more with US involvement in the middle east.

That all who accept such irrational ideas as those present in religion are nuts is beside the point.

Quote from BAMBO :

Religion could offer us so much if we would actually use it towards what it should represent. Studying the possible existence of a creator force, trying to define life and existence, searching for meaning and many other.

See my previous link to the wiki page on Absurdism. Part of this school of thought is that life has no inherent meaning, only that which you create on your own.

Quote from justasimfan :

It is implied ! (There are some hd texture and model updates too ! )

Also don't forget other amazing games made by these people like deus ex (There is a dx9-10 render update,there are more complex maps updates,hd textures,an hdr plugin-enbseries and even some hd models.... )
i played the original deus ex at least 3 times and i am thinking replaying it as it looks fantastic with the updates...)

And ofcourse we have the thief series with my favourite being 3 deadly shadows.

Tribes Vengeance was nice too with a great story.(I just wish the someday make a terranova remake as irrational has the only remaining people that made that game.

And don't forget Bioshock...and Anachronox and last but not least....the current UFO remake ! (Its made with another company as the main devs but many people from irrational (ex looking glass stuff) are working with them and helping them.

I find it odd that anyone who played System Shock 2 would enjoy Bioshock. Take SS2, dumb down the gameplay a lot, give it some whiz-bang graphics and a steampunk setting, and you have Bioshock.

Virginia International Raceway (VIR). Opened in 1957, closed in 1974, reopened in 2000. Same layout, just wider. Several configurations have been added, too.

Quote from http://www.virhistory.com/vir.html :

VIR was a cow pasture for almost 25 years and was reopened in 2000 - the current track follows the center line and elevation of the old track but has been widened slightly. The new VIR facility is truly spectacular.

Summit Point Raceway (the Main circuit) was opened in 1970 and that circuit has only seen one change.

Quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summit_Point_Motorsports_Park :

The original layout did not include the "Carousel", presently denoted Turns 6 and 7. In the original layout, Turn 5 was a ~90 deg. left-hander leading to a 90 deg. right-hander at the entry to what is now denoted Turn 8. Therefore, the original layout had 8 turns (or 9 depending on how you counted them). The "Carousel" wasn't added until sometime after mid-'73.

It's okay to make fun of someone's English when they come from one of the following countries (in no particular order):

- United States
- Canada
- United Kingdom
- Ireland
- Australia

Others don't deserve it. Stop being a dick.

I'm not that good with the FOX, but if it's with intake restriction, I'm sure everyone will be pretty evenly matched. lol I'll start practicing.

You'd be wrong. The fast drivers will win, the slow drivers will lose. It never fails.

It's not like the FOX really needs less power either...
