It's aliiiive! The KTM 50 started for the first time tonight. I took it apart, drained the tank, dismantled the carb, and cleaned out some nasty sludge. After that, I just had to put some fresh gas in it and kick it over a couple of times. I think it might even be louder than the TTR. I put it back together, and I'll take it out for its first test ride tomorrow when the neighbors won't shoot at me.

Man, that KTM has a hell of a top end. It isn't running great yet, but it's ridable at least. I'm still looking for a manual so I can figure out which screws adjust what on the carb.

Those 1125R's are dirt cheap!

Stealth- sorry to hear you are still having issues. That really sucks.

Fran- I know you are perfectly capable of making a cable, as I am also, but time rules my life and I just bought one from these guys and it will be here Monday. I just don't have the time to scrounge for all the parts, etc.

> SWEET!!! 50 racing anyone??

It's definitely a race bike. It only has one gear, and it's all top end. It won't make much of a stunter, but it sure is fast.

Any knowledgable Linux fans out there?

If so, I have a question.
I am getting ready to load an OS on my PC (post hard drive crash). I really want to get away from Microsoft, so I am going with Linux.
Here is the catch... Melissa needs to be able to sit at the computer, and pretend she is using windows basically.
It doesn't matter to me since I need to learn Linux and it's various interfaces anyway.
So, I am looking at Ubuntu, Fedora, and Xfce. Does anyone have any input/suggestions/whatnot on what would be the bestest?
I am currently leaning heavily towards Fedora, just cuz it looks purdy, and I think Melissa would have no problem with the interface, and unlike the debian download (21 iso files @ 650Mb each), it is only one CD download.

Thanks in advance.

I use Ubuntu. It's the friendliest and prettiest I've found so far. It comes with compiz enabled, so you get some really cool desktop effects. Here's a video of some of the compiz effects:

You can find a bunch more on YouTube by searching for "compiz."

I've been running Ubuntu for a while. Extra cool. Only the puters I've been running it on aren't exactly fast. We're talking PentiumII.
If I had a nice video card, I give the wobbly desk top another try. Right now it's running Xubuntu, running it very well I might add.
If I knew Gimp, and a couple of other programs, I'd leave Window$ all together.

Me, did you not see my other two posts??
No, sorry.
I wanna leave here early bird, real freakin early. I wanna ride!!!

Thanks for the input on the Linux guys. I am currently connected to you on my PC using the Fedora 9 distribution of Linux.
I don't think I have ever seen this PC run so fast...
I think I am going to change my laptop over as well... I just need to get all of my important data backed up first.

Matt, those desktop animations were cool! Fedora has an option to turn those on, but I have not been able to get it to work yet. I may be missing a download for it or something.

Ah, to be completely separated from Microsoft... it's like a dream! Well, except I am still stuck to Microsoft at work....

Charlie, That was fun, we need to do that more often during the week. Glitch and I have been able to ride a few times lately, reminds me of the good ol' days, I remember when...

Sounds like we need to start having a weekly ride even if its only for an hr



Thanks Sanchez, I saw the pic and heard a banjo playing in my head...Thanks, I needed the laugh.
