Bump for the Christmas/Hanukkah/Festivus crowd.

I got this baby from a guy off the ST.N board. It's in very good shape. The rear side has minor blemishes from not being in a protective case. The screen has a faint scratch on front near the top, hardly noticeable unless you look choose to look right at it. I'm firm about wanting $100. I paid $90 when I bought it, and since my new iPhone 4 uses a different case style, I'm including the all-black Otterbox defender case (with belt clip/holster...not in pics below...sorry) that I bought for it and one USB power/interface cable. This iPhone is not upgraded to the latest iOS so that you have the option to put the iPhone into an unteathered jailbreak it if you want to. IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING PRE-PAID PLANS This phone works great, and it will work with a pre-paid GoPhone plan from AT&T so you don't need to pay for a contract or even a data plan (just use all the interwebsy stuff via WiFi). Do your research before attempting. When I got this phone, I was instructed to jailbreak the phone first, and it worked fine for me. However, several sites say jailbreaking the iPhone is only needed if your SIM came from a phone packaged with a promo deal which locks that SIM card into that specific phone it's paired with for about 6 months after activation. In that case, jailbreaking supposedly is a needed step. I've been told since doing all the work that I did that you can just walk into an AT&T store and ask for a SIM card for their pre-paid plan for a phone you have at home. REGARDING iOS AND JAILBREAKING This phone is currently running iOS 4.3.3 (8J2). THIS IS THE LATEST iOS THAT CAN BE PUT INTO AN UNTETHERED JAILBREAK (in plain language....you don't need to connect the iPhone to iTunes to reboot/turn on). I reverted the phone to a clean restore of 4.3.3 WITHOUT the jailbreak. So, you can use this phone as is, upgrade to the latest iOS, or jailbreak it if you desire. IF YOU UPGRADE THE iOS TO ANYTHING NEWER THAN 4.3.3, THE MOST YOU CAN HAVE IS A TETHERED JAILBREAK UNTIL SOMEONE DEVELOPS AN UNTETHERED JAILBREAK FOR THE iOS YOU UPGRADED TO. SO, DO NOT UPGRADE THE iOS UNTIL YOU ARE CERTAIN YOU REALLY WANT TO. I will include a CD of important software and saved web pages you would need to attempt to restore the phone to 4.3.3 if you upgrade and then later change your mind. PLEASE NOTE THAT iOS 5.0 and higher buggers the iPhone so you can't downgrade UNLESS you saved the SHSH data WHICH IS SPECIFIC TO EACH iPHONE. There are steps you MUST take BEFORE you upgrade above 4.3.3 to save the SHSH data so that you can later force the iPhone back to 4.3.3 after you upgrade to iOS 5.0 or higher. THE CD WILL NOT HAVE THE SAVED SHSH DATA ON IT. So, do your research before upgrading the iOS unless you are certain that you never want to revert the iOS back because without a backup of the SHSH data you won't be able to undo the upgrade. *** I'm cross posting this listing on two boards. I'll respond to offers based on the time/day stamp of the post/PM indicating someone wants it.

It did just that, but your e-mail account came up with no problems...unless somehow that data was backed up on the SIM and it just loaded it back on when it rebooted. My prior phones could back up data to the SIM card, but as the iPhone can do stuff on WiFi only, I'd not expect it to use the SIM for data storage unless you told it to do that, and I've not yet found a dialogue that gives you that option.

BUUUAAAAAHHHHAAAAAHHHHHHAAAAAA! Dave's iPhone finally got here. The big moment of truth was to see if cutting the SIM to a mini-SIM would work (as I was told) in the phone without a hassle. One bad cut and I'd need to replace the SIM card. It went flawlessly, and that left me with transferring the contents from one to another. The major pain in doing that is that iTunes wanted to update...70 MB...OVER DIAL-UP. :icon_wall: This is the second iPhone I've gotten, and it's the second time the phone arrived with all the prior owner's data still on it. I nearly pleasured myself with mischievous thoughts as I scrolled through Dave's phone and just went :icon_nono: as Dave really should know better. I decided to be a nice guy and just go into SETTINGS -> GENERAL -> RESET and tell it to erase all content and settings. Otherwise, I could have had a fun afternoon. BTW, Dave, you left the AT&T mini-SIM card in the phone. Did you need it back for anything or should I just chuck it?

When something like that happened to me, it was because the asshole of a mechanic sabotaged my petcock to cover the attempt of another mechanic to dump dirt in my tank and say it always was that way. Spring was missing...vacuum activated petcock. Basically the valve stayed open and the gas kept flowing. Don't know if that's your problem or not.

The boiling point is much higher. I buy this stuff. http://www.valvoline.com/products/brands/v...-brake-fluid/28 DBP of 480 degrees. $3.99 at most auto parts stores. What you're looking at goes up to 536 degrees. Do you really need the 56 extra degrees? It's intended for track use or anything that puts high-stress on the brakes. What kind of riding are you doing?

WOOT! It's getting lonely being stuck under my desk at work.

I just use full-synthetic compatible with DOT3 and DOT4. Don't see the point in spending that much for brake fluid. What's it do that's so special?

Bump for the lower price.

Dielectric grease for the win.

Some simple things to check.... 1. You have an idle set knob on the left side of the bike. Sometimes it gets buggered and a slight twist restores the idle to something more proper. Just something to check, not likely the problem. 2. Get a can of Seafoam or B-12 Chemtool (they're both the same thing) and put the whole can into a full tank of gas. Just in case you got something buggery in the fuel system.

Are you divesting your worldly possessions because Israel is gearing up to strike Iran? :icon_think:

And there was much rejoicing. :icon_clap: :icon_clap: :icon_clap:

I'd have two concerns.... 1. Seller on eBay....'nuff said. 2. Made in China. Most everything automotive I see made in China is sub-par quality. I know the guy to orders the stuff has some say on QA issues, but I don't see too many made in Chine stuff that meets OEM standards.

DIBS DIBS DIBS!

If you log in and troll the VFR forums, you may find someone willing to sell their VFR ones. That's how I found mine. http://vfrworld.com/forums/forum.php

I say yes. It is, in essence, a radiator, and located where road debris can strike it just right. My radiator had a pinhole leak I had fixed. I can still, under the right conditions, see puffs of steam come from the fixed area even though pressure testing time and time again shows no leak. Never had a coolant failure since the repair, but it makes me wonder how it manages to happen at all. Best thing you could do is degrease the cooler and then when it's dry apply some powder then run and see if a wet spot develops. With that, you might be able to have it fixed or replace the component.

I know it will work as a standard repair. Don't know what track inspectors would think.
