  1. I'm jealous of all you motorcyclists out there. I would like to get one at some point, even if its just for a little while but alot of people, including my fiance and my parents are totally against it and aren't too supportive of me ever getting one. I would also be completely new to the 2 wheeled world, so I would have a lot of learning to do.

    best option take a motorcycle safety course, i took mine when I was 16. In Wisconsin you are required if below 18 to take the class, plus its good way to learn basics about riding. They are held on closed courses so no other cars or anything to worry about. They teach you the basic skills how to handle a motorcycle and make some simple maneuvers. Once you are done the only thing you have to take from the dmv then is a permit test, which is quite easy. You read a small book and then take the test. I'd recommend a cycle. You feel free and once you ride one you never want to stop!

  2. I mean I spent 1100 getting it going again including taking it to a shop and having them redo the carbs and tune it up.. 6 months later it started dying :( so i decided it's either getting sold or I'm going to strip it all down, clean it and restore it.. Definitely needs to be re-wired because I'm pretty sure there's a few shorts..

    yeah i wouldn't doubt that. one of the spark plug connectors on mine was a dud, took a while to figure out. the electric starter it had wasn't working as well had that looked at however the shop couldn't quite figure it out. then I had issue with the tail light going out as well, only to find the wires inside somehow came loose and disconnected themselves. worse part i didn't know my tail light was off when i was driving at dusk on my way back up school! lucky i made it there without an accident.

  3. I still need to rebuild mine.. or sell it and get something else, haven't decided yet :(

    74 Honda CL 360

    Pipe Side

    wow i have a '75 Honda CB360. It was running two summers ago until I took a trip up north and a loud bang. Have to replace the kick starter at minimum as I can't get the engine to turn. Since then I've acquired another 360 that had been sitting in someone's barn for who knows how many years but might be able to do engine swap as the bike has fewer miles on it. Just haven't gotten around to it. Another reason being the 4 summers I had her going before every summer there seemed to be something new wrong with it that I found. Got a little bit old spending a month to figure out what was wrong and fix it before getting her going. Great fun bike to drive when she ran right though!

     

    Oh one other thing. My uncle had brought this bike brand new then my dad brought it from him about 15years ago. It had sat for 5 years in our garage before I got it. It was quite the project to get it going again but we did after some time on figuring what all had to be replaced.

     

    When you say rebuild what does this all involve? Or is that just the stage you are at located everything to figure out what is up? I know when we got mine going after sitting fix one thing and then we would find something else that was also an issue. It was fun getting it going again but a few headaches along the way as well.

  4. Just finished the 2nd season......WOW! I'm on the edge of my seat, can't wait for the 3rd season

    Yep quite the show huh? amazingly awesome i think so anyways!

  5. Oh yeah, this show rocks! Been waiting for the next season to get here. When is it suppose to start? I just streamed the first 2 seasons as I got into it when I saw part of an episode on TV.

  6. I have an 8800gtx that I just replaced with a 280gtx.. no idea what it's worth used though..

    pm let me know how much sounds reasonable to you

     

    do you have > 500 W psu? I smell trade.. if not, anybody else have one? we can circle je.... i mean 3 way trade this thing

    No, only spare computer parts I got are 2 1gig sticks of ddr2

  7. all this talk about bikes is making me want to get mine out for the first time this year....

    dude, how are you not on your bike year round? lame dude.

    I might live in the south, but it does get cold here. We actually had a colder than normal winter, many days in the 30's, but it mostly mid 40's....too cold for my blood.

    I have a couple friends who took out their bikes when it got in the 40s and the sun was shinning. its all about your blood. you people way down south think 40 is cold that is the problem =)

     

    on the other note that bike does look pretty sweet .fx for myself i've been eyeing up BMW F650 similar style to what you are looking at.

  8. hmm after using arctic silver on this still hitting 82C after 10min of playing... one other thing I've noticed is that if I go to steam chat my fps drops down as it loads steam chat. i've also noticed after I minimize my game that it drops below 30fps and pretty much stays there.

     

    memory leak not really sure where that would be coming from. i have mcafee antivirsus and skype running in the background. Otherwise that is all...
