Also said he was gonna put rush on it and try to get it shipped tomorrow which would be good but we shall see.

A new sales dude ended up with one of my old trucks with an IPass transponder in it and has racked up $180 in two weeks! :wtf: We've had a little discussion about that. He's getting his own EZ-Pass.

Good thing is that our new CFO isn't a nit pickin' troll like the last one was. Old one would have flung accusations without any knowledge of how high the tolls are in that part of the US.

for all those Non Illini, Ipass is what illinois calls thier EZpass....LOL

What size wheels does that one have? They look bigger than the 10 and 12 inch wheels I usually see on smaller china bikes.

I bought one of those solar panel kits that trickle charge powersports 12v batteries. I only ride on weekends and weather often doesn't permit.
I mounted the solar panel on the west outside wall of my garage and ran the charging wire inside through an existing grommet.
It costs about 15 bucks at Harbor Freight.

Not being smartass but, good luck with that. Hope it works out with no suprises.

I have one on the dashboard of my old '73 Crew Cab and over the last 2 years it has never failed to fire up, even after sitting for months at a time.





Today, I ordered a Sony X3000 action cam. They have a mechanically stabilized lens in addition to digital stabilization, plus the 4k and colors look fabulous. Big splurge, but I'm hoping to get some great videos put up next year.

LED headlight. Makes a big difference at least in the garage. Can't wait to get it out tonight.

"good luck with that. Hope it works out with no suprises."
I hope so too, Blackbike. In the immortal words of Gordon Soley, "It remains to be seen."
My solar panel only gets direct sun in the afternoon, so I am not worried about getting an overcharge.

BRING ON THE 80'S WRASSLIN THREAD...OH YEA BROTHER

A few new spokes and a Bontrager tire for my mountain bike (bicycle) I found a busted spoke before a ride so I bought a replacement and a few extras. Of course, the spoke is on the gear side so I will have to use my chain whip.
-My biggest problem with bicycles has always been fragile wheels, whether its a road bike or MTB. new wheels, old wheels and even shop built wheels - all fragile. I have never busted a spoke on a motorcycle.
-I'm afraid I don't have a relevant 1980s 'rasslin pic to post with this one, "Brother.".
