Does anyone here have the Lightning Long touring seat that would be willing to let me put it on my bike for a few mins to see if I like it sometime? Jettdawg, ask Simmerdown. |

kitchens suck! things could not have gone worse for me. cabinets came in broken...countertop came in wrong....and we got 2 black and 2 white appliances. a total pain in the ass start to finish, and just when i think i'm done i came home the other day and the wife had ripped up all the carpet in the house to begin laying wood floors. the room is on a slab and midway through the room the concrete drops an 1 1/2" in 9 feet.... what a disaster. |

Well...every now and then something cool happens or you meet somebody of at least some notoriety... I just met the owner of Fuller Hot Rods...the guy you see on Two Guys Garage on Speed (sorry Scotty - not trying to rub it in but I know you have NO idea of what that show is). http://www.fullerhotrods.com/pages/index.aspx Some pretty cool stuff he's made... |

"Drilling out the return oil passages to 1/8" is worth the trouble while you have the covers off." Just to be safe. Are these the small holes in the middle rocker box in the same pocket as the umbrella valves? EDIT: Never mind, found it in the KV. I also did the described umbrella valve mod. Even the new gaskets have better oil passages. Shawn, the kitchen looks good, how did you upload all those when I can't even put a pic of my M2 up?
