    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.

i got out of school today and walked to my bike, cranked her over, nothing doing. i figure she's cold, so i dial in some choke, set it on prime, crank it. she chugs for a bit, catches, then dies. again - now she's running lumpy, like she's on one cylinder. which is pretty strange.

except for the fact that she WAS running on one cylinder. some damn crackhead was trying to steal my sparkplug, or sparkplug boot, because apparently they somehow use them as pipes (beats the hell out of me). so the porcelain above the hex is broken off, and there are little chips all over the place. fantastic.

which leads me to two conclusions:

1. crackheads suck
2. i need to carry some tools and spares around

anyone have a good idea of where to carry a toolkit on an '81 GS450L?
 
I carry around a back pack with some mm sockets, and ratchet (1/4 drive). Also some extra plugs, cables, R/R, etc.....now that I see this...I think for the next ride, I'll put in some wires...
I LOVE the German invention if they f with your car, etc...this flame thrower thing comes out and toasts the SOB...
I'll be installing this on the next ride ;) *
(so I dont get sued if by chance some smoking carcass gets thrown out next to my bike)

Or the cop who lifts the covers on the signals and plates...

*ducks*


With this spark plug stealing crack smoking biz going on, why not tote a few beat plugs around and just put 'em on the head when you park? Just don't mix em up with the working plugs I guess... or...

don't throw your old plugs out - save 'em, chum the risky neighborhoods with em and call the cops???
 
Don't be too judgmental. One of those crackheads may need a good public defender someday!

That really sucks Alex. Don't you have a storage compartment on your bike? Both of mine have a little cubby hole in the tail section that is made for the tool pouch.

In a similar situation, I was out at the Capitol flea market a few month back. When I returned to my bike I noticed someone had swiped my tank emblem. Not a crackhead. Just a sc*mbag thief too cheap to buy one.

I like the flamethrower idea. Or maybe about 20,000 volts if some jerk touches my bike!

THey wanted it for their new necklace ;)


FIRE!! FIRE!! (B&B impression)
 
You got to rig up a big capacitor that will discharge when the touch it.
Then, they'll probably do something worse, as revenge, though.
 
no they're not. a walking incarnation of primal need is an animal, not a person

Ummmmm. Whatever. I was just jokin' dude. I am in no way supportive or condoning crackheadism, thank you very little. :-D
 
hmm ... maybe instead of harming the crackheads, i'll start a campaign of disinformation. as in, "the BEST sparkplugs for smoking crack out of come out of YAMAHAs" :-D
