  1. I’m an motorcycle Ohio instructor. Just to get you an idea, it’s roughs about 350 a weekend. There is an am “instructor prep course” in a few months that could get you certified and teaching next year and it still has open seats.
  2. As and owner of a Ninja 650, I can tell you that they are well put together. And should withstand wind and rain just fine. But, for the winter I would do what I could to get it inside.... as some one els said, won’t it fit in the door? Park it in the living room
  3. If your not doing the 30min workout in the "30 minutes workout" area GTFO!!! there are 2 more of every machine out on the gym floor. AAAAAAAH!!
  4. Yes, I too have a garage full of cool tools, and even a welder now. And I can weld. But weld what? I would love to come up with a side job. I have always wanted to get into vacuum forming stuff, like farings, and other things. The machine can be made and the material available. But what the heck can be made. I keep telling myself i need to piggy back onto one of these pyramid scams that keep going around Facebook. Take for instance these stupid LipSence shit... or whatever they call it. I could make an accessory not offered by the company and start selling stock items to all these idiots that buy into that crap. My point is, having the tools and knowing to weld is only about 1/2 the battle. What to make, then getting it sold is a nother issue. This thread is prime examples of people that have figured it out.
  5. I am not loosing a fucking pound! But I do notice the clothes fitting a little better. Today I turned up the weight on machines, one interesting thing... I still have to work really really hard to move the higher wieghts, but I can now move it. When I started, I couldn't budge it at all. Just wierd how the lighter weight never really got "easier" to move.
  6. Not quite... This would be like asking your listeners to please "Donate" $5 a month, and you get a chance to win this "shiny used car"
  7. I to skipped the weekend and a few days last week, I am now feeling better and back at it. But nothing wrong with letting your body heal! I have to be feeling perfect before ill go to the gym. If i feel the least bit crappy, i wont go.
  8. .... I mean YouTube contributors? What am I talking about? Take a look at the new YouTube guys out there, ChaseOnTwoWheels is now doing "Wrecked Bike Rebuilds" on his channel, and 650iB is also giving away bikes now. Chase, finely got some help on his rebuild, before that, you were watching a real moron rebuild a wrecked bike, then give it away to a Patreon contributor. 650iB videos are OK'ish with his videos, but could use some work. Then gives away the bike to a Patreon contributor. Youtube doesnt really pay out that much, even with the views these guys are getting. But go ahead and and take a look at the Patron pages https://www.patreon.com/chaseontwowheels is making 8K !!!! and episode... and thats about 12 episodes... so like $96,000 for that zx10 hes building. https://www.patreon.com/650ib is making $5,200 per episode.... so about $67,600 for that BMW he is building now. Looks like he has some catching up to do, with Chase. Honestly, they all are doing good work, but im not sure how i feel about what they are using this Patreon accounts for. Its turning it into a form of gambling really. I guess as long as they keep making decent videos, and dont loose focus of what they are really doing. Also im salty i didn't think of it first
  9. WERA? Also I’m trying really hard to drop weight this winter, and I have no idea what size.
  10. On my list this coming year. Bought a cert. someone help me find some leathers that will fit my fat ass!
  11. Bike Bandit has a killer deal today, 12% site wide. Just picked up a new Road Pilot 4 from Revzilla. Made them price match Bikebandits price. I like the return policies over at revzilla better, and i get 5$ in cash back to use at a later date. Your Welcome! P.S. compound that with 2% cash back on the credit card.
  12. We’re the heck are you people at? Are you still hitting the gym on this Holliday weekend?
  13. Sold/gone. Donated to a family member... What's interesting, saw one on Facebook market place and the guy wanted over 100$ for it... Shit I couldn't give mine away.
  14. thankful that my son made it to this world. Was a ruff ride that night in April. Remeber going thru this form that night, over and over, just waitind.
  15. New smartwatch. I was using a moto360 sport. This is a New Balance RunIQ. I ahve been watching these sense they were released back in Feb. Original price was 299, they recently dropped the price to 199, and you can find the brand new in the 150$ range. Great watch for the price really. Onboard GPS, and HRM. running Android Wear 2.0. Amonge many other things. My biggest grip, the size, it's considerably larger than the Motorola. Ships with Strava software pre installed, but the downside to the Strava Wear app, no indoor option. Previously on the Moto360 I used the Moto fit app that worked quit well and synced seamlessly with My fitness Pal. Now I'm trying out Google fit on the watch for tracking. So far seems ok.
  16. I just started doing it... And I do it as it's intended. One the steps for 60sec, then wieghts for 60 secs... I work more for allot of reps, lighter weight. And really work the steps heard to get the heart rate up. I like to maintain 150 or better the whole time, and try to Target 170 for a few minutes.
  17. Started doing this planet fitness 30 min workout. About 3 times a week, for about 2 weeks now. I can already tell a difference in my strength. I have never done strength training before, actually no wieghts at all. I always do treadmill, oliptical and bike. That's about it. Seem to have hit a brick wall with wieght loss, at about 238. Hoping this new work out, and back to clean eating will shack things up again. At one point I was down to 220, and before my new "life style" I wieghed 320 lbs. That was 2014ish I believe.
  18. I really don’t mind riding the Suzuki thru this stuff, but its just to cold. Ugh, I need some heated gear!
  19. I wouldn't expect anything with a turbo to last 250k. Take a look at the focus, 3 gen cars. You can get a a nicly optioned one for what you looking to spend. Yes the autos are crap, but I currently have 2 of the manuals (2011 &2014) and have had nothing but great luck with them. The newer one will push 40mpg on the highway, and easily stay above 32 when I rail it. Very light clutch in the newer ones, with a short throw-ish shifter from the factory. 43k on it and still rocking the original tires, and have losts of tread on them.
  20. But would you get a supercharger? ? In All seriousness, I could do without the supercharger, I love everything else this bike has to offer, not sure I need 200hp tho.
  21. From what I can gather, this thing is going to be north of $20k. Well out of what I'll pay for motorcycle. It's probably worth it... It's the "goldwing" for us sport bike guys. Lots of techy on the loaded version.
  22. Welcome, photos of the bike? We likes pictures!
  23. Well here is the new bike from team green! I really like the looks, and the idea of a really powerful sport touring bike! Looks comfy, and easy to handle. I'm to to worried about reliability honestly, because in my life time wouldn't expect to put more than 40-50k miles on it. Could be a little lighter, have to read up on some more reviews. https://www.asphaltandrubber.com/bikes/2018-kawasaki-ninja-h2-sx-se/
  24. Looks like the launch date for these tires is jan 18, is it worth the wait, or should i just go ahead and order a 4?
