Cool stuff, guys. Way over my head.

It will! I have a MAP Cycles offset crank, and a Bob Newby belt drive on a shelf just waiting. I want a set of Triples Rule alloy barrels, MAP rods and Britech coated pistons, then I'm set.

We had a... hobby horse I guess you would call it... He took a car spring he brought home from work and buried part of it into a concrete filled hole, then mounted the horse on it. For a 5 year old, that thing was awsome! Our swing set was probably 14 feet tall. Nice long swinging arc. For a...

Kind of a P.S. here... The Triumph was my second motorcycle (the first was an '81 CB750K), but it's the one I've kept all these years. Funny enough, my first memories as a child are of riding around our backyard, sandwiched between my father and the tank of his 1969 Bonneville. Sometimes these...

Yeah, I guess we were spoiled (that being my first car). My sister's first car was a 1986 IROC Camaro. But somehow we both also learned to respect and appreciate what we were given. We both had to work around the house on every project (from building fences to redoing bathrooms), and we also saw...

He's still with us, and even lives "on his own," but with a lot of assistance from my sister and I. My sister lives about an hour from him, and goes over once or twice a week to make sure his medicine calendars are filled, and he has food in the fridge (she prepares meals for him so all he has...

I've had mine for nearly 40 years. I bought it in boxes! It's a '69 TR6R with a '73 750/5-speed motor. This pic is from at least 30 years ago, and after that I put a XS750 front end on it. I pulled it apart for a knock, then life happened.

Wish it had worked for my father. <sigh>

My grandfather didn't have an opinion. Seem they removed it when they removed his a$$hole. :lmao:;):cool: I have a Twin-Cam Dyna, and it'll do 80mph all day. But it's not the engine that'll make you slow down, it's the seating position. Beautiful softail! I have an '08 Dyna (just can't get...

Love those gals! One of my favorites.

From the LaCorte video: 4. The Cost of Solutions So the underlying question all of this is … are the costs of solutions worth it? And are we even pursuing the right solutions at all? The dominant economic argument for aggressive climate action goes back to the Stern Review, a landmark 2006...

They simply make a huge assumption. But again, I'm not saying there isn't anthropogenic climate change. As LaCorte said, "So here's where the agreement actually is. Some warming is human-caused, and almost no serious skeptic argues humans contribute nothing. There’s a question as to how...

Absoultely.

Seems the largest number of papers had "no position" or "Expresse[d the] position that humans’ role... ...is uncertain/undefined" on anthropogenic climate change (source: your link).

Wait, I thought you said, "I'm not going to get into debates or arguments." Listen, as I've said many times, I agree we need to do better. I agree we need to think things through more. I agree we should, on our own, try to do what's best. Since I know you didn't (and won't) watch the LaCorte...

Well, you've definitely demonstrated you know how to attack a source rather than the information that source gives... I agree man is contributing (as did the guy in the video I posted). We do reuse containers as much as possible, but at some point you have too many prescription bottles. But...

I met my wife on a motorcycle ride. Both my wife and a friend of mine belonged to a group called "Single Volunteers of Washington D.C.. Bob (the friend) had recently gotten his first motorcycle and had arranged a group ride through the SVWDC list-serve. He called me the day before the ride to...

I bet you even think you're funny. The point is, just because a "consensus" of "experts" believe something doesn't make it true. They've been very wrong in the past. Evidence makes something true, or at least, more likely. So don't give me the "97%" BS. Give me data and facts. Watch the...

Then again, 97% of doctors in the 1800s believed washing their hands was useless in stopping the spread of disease, and an overwhelming majority of geneticists and biologists in the 1920s supported the core principles of eugenics...
