Forum: Off Topic
For us motorheads--- A new network some will find deeply offensive because it touts itself as "...of Americans, by Americans and for Americans..." is showing a rally race from Italy today. Go figure.The network is Maverick TV or MAVTV on the channel guide. The programming is mostly motorsports with some MMA and some dumb movies here and there.now, back to my European vacay...London, I&#
2. Re: Patriotic Americans: watch and learn from Egypt
Forum: Off Topic
Obviously, the Egyptian people don't want shariah law or a caliphate. They're a society and culture made of different elements that have never lived under anything like the rule of law we used to enjoy here. Morsi lied to everyone because it's perfectly acceptable to his traditional way of doing things. They're probably in for a string of Morsi types and much more growing pains

4. Re: What fluid in 1980 Garelli 2 spd?
Forum: Repair
If a former owner has used a detergent oil you may have some other challenges in the future, like swollen rubber parts causing clutch engagement at idle and crappy shifting. Detergent oil has chlorine, it "attacks" the rubber, making it swell. A good flushing out with non-detergent oil wouldn't hurt.
5. Re: Hole in my gas tank!
Forum: Repair
There's some good advice here about this kind of leak. I have the same thing happening with one of my bikes. So far, JB Weld has worked fine. It seems like a cheesy method, but if the metal is cleaned well, the stuff works.
6. Patriotic Americans: watch and learn from Egypt

If so many weren't afraid of being pulled off the tit, we might have the balls to duplicate what has transpired in Egypt. Watch for our prez to expand entitlements to placate the masses to prevent this from happening here.

We experienced a wildfire in Arizona's Patagonia Mountains, on the Mexican border, two years ago. The flames got within a mile of the little ghost town we were in. At one point we were forced to drive through the burning areas. The hot shot crews were busting their asses on those steep mountainsides. We're very grateful for their hard work and sacrifices. Bless them and their families.

11. Re: garelli vip "pop rivet" method
Forum: Repair
Stick with the snubbers. Rivets will work OK but if you have to access the clutch rubber, you have to drill out the rivets. You can see in this pic the trans fluid turned into salad dressing because the seller had never changed it in 10 years.Edit: I meant access the clutch disc thingy...Edit2: Here's a link to a thread about your question. There's a couple other threads. Quatto or marti

^@ MurrayThanks for posting the link to that study. It reinforces what most sane people instinctively know. Aside from the random crazies that shoot up a congresswoman's neighborhood meeting and the like, an armed citizen is probably the number one deterrent to violent crime. There will always be crazies, killing innocents with whatever means possible, like cars, bombs, poisons and such. But

I suppose the New Jersey woman savagely beaten by a home invader could have called the cops and been just as safe as if she had a gun, except she was beaten nearly unconscious. At least the nanny-cam caught most of it, and her three year old daughter was so much safer without that gun around...

Forum: Off Topic
We moved recently and in the packing and such I lost a new-in-the-box spark plug that I needed later that day for the chainsaw. I stopped by a small shop to get a replacement, asked about any dirt bikes or small MCs and ended up with a 100% complete moped for free. The shop owner didn't care and had no idea about European mopeds, he just wanted it out of his yard. He even offered to help load

Nice pics of nice bikes, even upside down. The Fizzy is quite the gem. That Benelli is also a dream ride. Well, all of these bikes in this thread are dreamy.
