that my T-shirt I ordered just showed up...several months later. I have no idea how or why. Thanks and sorry it got out of hand. All the best, Tom

I'm calling AMEX right now since you've pulled this shit you thief.

OK, you'll no doubt delete this and ban me. I've been looking since Sunday night to send a PM, but guess what? I have no buttons anymore to reply to or send a PM. They have all disappeared. I guess since you "warned me" about not asking a question about a shirt sold by this site by the...

Done! And to the lone rider in Moscow, I'll be coming through there in about 8 weeks. Not on my Max, of course, on my way to Nishny. Privyet! Kak du la komrad? Pahka! Tom

I would wait until your warranty expires before I took that plunge. Contrary to popular belief, any addition of non-Yamaha factory parts WILL void your warranty. That's why I'm waiting to do anything to mine as well. Regards, Tom

Doesn't bother me as I can't ride anyway! lol If you don't mind my asking, why is that? Are you hurt? Regards, Tom

I would call/email Yamaha and complain. They do listen. After my EXCELLENT experience in getting my '07 Max, I emailed Yamaha corporate about Michael Jiminez and Millenium Cycle Works and told them exactly what I thought of them. How well they had done their job, how professional they...

learned I can't play with a Blackbird, Busa, and a ZX14 unless I plan to be 4th out of 4 That ZX14 is lights out, isn't it? :biglaugh: Congrats on eating the 350Z up. I had one kind of shoot me a look the other day, but he thought better of it and just slowly pulled off from the light. I...

I was thinking that would have to be the case, KJ. I mean really...how many times have we seen a cashier with that same gun have to move that laser all over the bar code in order to read it properly? There's no way you could do that with the bike moving. No way. Regards, Tom

It's gotta be A. And man, you can really tie that in with the rest of the bike...like maybe part of that beast tail down the back fender, maybe another beast claw up the front fender or on the side panels or even the scoops, etc. That would look DEVASTATING! Regards, Tom

It looks like a buddy of mine's old Rebel. If so, if the shifter EVER gets a bit clunky, there's a bearing inside the casing that is pretty historical for failing. It locked his gearbox up when it went. He knew other folks with the same bike with the same problem. (This is about 10 or 12 years...

Harley Davidson Sportster (not sure what size...it was laughable.) Late model 600RR GSXR 750 (think it was about a 2000 model...not new) Some sort of chopper. I have no idea. It was pretty rediculous. My buddys SV1000S (2006) A late model Vette (Probably around 2003 or 4) A late 60's SS Camaro A...

It's stuff like this that makes me REALLY glad that there are so many REALLY knowledgeable guys about this bike. Although mine is new, it's very comforting to know that in the years to come when things do go south that folks that really know what they're doing can help you out. Really cool...

It is a cool looking jacket. It would be great to have to wear around after you get off the bike when it's chilly out....or in the winter when you can't ride and go to a bike shop or show or something. Reminds me of my old West McLaren Mercedes jacket and pit crew shirt, only those are real...

Now that sounds cool as hell. That might be worth doing for asthetics even if my wife never sits on the bike in her lifetime. (Presently, she wont even set foot into the same side of the garage.) Regards, Tom
