    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

What did you mess up today?!

At least it wasn't a 140 speedo. :xsmilie_mrgreen: (Let me know if you need my old 80 unit.)
 
lol, thanks, im opening her up and seeing if i cant fix my stupidity :P
 
Hmmm, rolled a bike out and knocked over a gallon jug of used motor oil in the garage. Somehow the lid was not on the jug at the time. All over the 450's front tire. Should make for an interesting ride. I think I'll ride through some snow to clean the tire.

These keys belong in the possession of the building engineers of the office building I was working in today. Went to walk the dog tonight and found them in my pocket. Now on the rare event of me working at a job literally 5 minutes from home I have to get up before 5 and take them back tomorrow morning.
 
got an XL125 from a guy.. traded a refrigerator for it and $100.
got it home, unstrapped it and it promptly fell over and dented the tank.
 
worked on my sled today. went to start it and the pull cord broke. it's always somethin'.
 
took my GS850L for her first test ride up to the gas station. Noticed that the kick stand was a little sticky and wouldn't spring back up out of the way. Had to kick it up there with my foot. So far so good. Got home and started thinking to myself that I didn't see if the speedometer was working. So put the leathers and helmet back on, started it up and tried to kick the kickstand back up. Foot got hung up on the shift lever and down we both went in the garage. Only damage I can see so far is it broke the front turn signal lens. I now have a bruise on my left butt, scraps on elbows and shin and my shoe was stuck under the bike and with a full tank of gas dripping all over the garage floor. Got mad and embarrassed and just went in the house to asses the physical damage. Never did see if the speedo is working.... Have to wait until tomorrow....LOL
FYI.. they will keep running even when laid out on the ground!
