Hmm, if that's true, then we have two issues. I know for a fact the session loss without an IP address change is an issue, because I get that when I lose my sessions. My address has not changed in months though. I also don't think we're having this issue on the other boards I host, but I am going to ask and see if I find a pattern.
I can't code in php. Just no skills in that at all. So I have no ability to change this. If there's a phpBB mod to do it, I'm open to the idea.
Meanwhile, I'd like to figure something out, so take the poll.
As far as Ken's emoticon issue, that's something I couldn't even find as a previous issue with a search. Which browser and version? Have you tried the cache clearing?

Nobody knows the difference except Mobil, and they aren't telling. Nearly all BMW riders use Mobil 1 car oil. I've used it for over ten years. There are billions of miles on bikes using Mobil 1 car oil.
It's your money.

Sometimes you'll see results, and other
times you'll just feel them..
This is an important point. First month I lost all that weight, but didn't feel/fit any different really. Which was kind of a downer, and seemed very strange. I stopped losing weight then, but then my clothes started to fit much better and I started to feel all the physical (positive) changes. A couple days ago I noticed my pants, same size I've been wearing for years, are much looser than they ever were. I dug out an old size, and they fit. Woohoo!
This can be defeated by consuming a minimumof 50g of glucose periodically.
I am still staying away from all simple sugars and all fruits. What do you think, does it make a difference? I have not touched any sugars since Jan 2. My only "cheat" items have been beer, bread, potato (small quantities), etc.
Also I'm pretty sure I'm going well over the 50g when I do. I mean 2-3 pints of good micro-brew stout must be way up there, I would think?

The bugs in Arizona have a drug problem. They drink superglue.

Oops. I thought I had. Hmm, they show up in the admin list. Crap. Will see what I can do some time soon. Clobbered by a personal and a work issue right now.

The XX will wheelie?
Shirley, you jest.
-
Pressure maybe?
Yes. The crankcase will pressurize A LOT if you have excess oil. You will lose a lot of power, and can actually blow seals and gaskets. This is why he needs to get an admission from them.
Part of my fiasco with the AZ Motorsports people was over-filling by over a quart. I lost 15MPH top end (imagine my embarassment when I topped out at 165 and an R1--ridden by a French chick--passed me) and could no longer wheelie. That alone was worth compensation for emotional damage.
At least in my case they were such incompetent morons that they also left the breather disconnected, so it just dripped out instead of filling up the airbox.

Damn, you probably, like, wash it and stuff too, don't you?
-
Mine does the hydraulic swish too. Does this happen if you just bounce the front end up and down while stopped?

First, I have to thank TJ for his advice on this, since I was previously stalled at one weight for weeks. It seemed odd, but I put my faith in it and he was exactly right.
I was 226 on 3/24, and I'm 218 today.
This is amazing considering I've worked in some real beer and some bread, twice! It was just as TJ predicted though--I guess my body had found balance and even though I was still well under 40g/day and usually under 30, my Ketone levels stayed in the "trace" range and I lost no weight. Immediately after having a few beers one night, my Ketone levels then bounced up to mid-range in around 48 hours. Last weekend I had one real beer and some bread; Ketones were barely trace 24 hours later, but high 48 hours later.
Thanks again, just what I needed, and I never would have thought of this.

Honda Polish. Plexus is fine too, it's just not as good at removing bugs. It means not to use ammoniated cleaners such as Windex nor any volatile spirits.

What Joe said. Especially about checking the air filter, and the plug change.
-
Everything I've read, and everything the local tuners and racers have told me, goes along with what Mithrandir has said. While I respect Dan's opinion to some point, it's that--an opinion. He's also got a stake in the whole thing.
The "flow more oil" point is something everyone talks about. Looking at the RaceTech kit, I saw nothing but excellent craftsmanship and machining. Even the competing kits from Traxxion feature larger oil flow holes.
-
Is it like oil rushing through the valves maybe? What weight of oil is in there now?

There's an Iridium plug.
CR9EHVX-9 is stock Platinum.
CR9EHIX-9 is Iridium.

You need to put it on a server somewhere, and then put the URL in your profile. If you don't have a web server to put it on, e-mail it to me and I'll put it on this server. It must be under 8k and properly sized.

Ever see flashing blue lights during a wheelie?
No, the mirrors point down at the ground... :grin:
I have seen flashing lights immediately after a wheelie a couple of times though, how did you know??
-
No complaints at all. The rear has 3k with minimal wear. The front has 4-5k and has perfectly even wear (as all Avon fronts always do).
-
They should be in the backup file, but they can't easily be restored. They could be searched manually, I think, and then the text could be cut/pasted into a document. So if you have something you need out of there, let me know and I'll search for it. A good keyword or specific phrase would help.

Fixed.

Last Sundya I touched my mirrors down with my Roads
Story? Bike ok?

Ask your dealer to give you a good trade on the stock (fucking crap) tires before you even take it out. See the tire threads around here for other options. Personally I'm very sold on the Avon AV45/AV46-ST. Lots of grip, great handling, long life. The stock tires are just horrible.
Second item on my list would be the fork springs, unless you weigh around 130 pounds.
Third would be Race Tech fork valve kits (both kits).
BTW, have I mentioned that the stock tires SUCK?!
And did you just imply that this is your first motorcycle??? :shock:

I've been touching the exhaust canisters down with no sliding. The only limitation is that I can't just hammer the throttle out of turns, have to bring it on smoothly. That's my trade-off for the mileage. Personally I'm all about cornering speed and lean, much more than raw acceleration.

Use the lock LONG before you get sore.

Anybody found the tool? No luck at Ace or Sears. They top out at 10mm.
