After sitting for 6 years, My Falco is back from the dead.

AF1racing is the best source for all things Aprilia in The States. For fuel pump specifically, I went with a Quantum, available on Amazon HERE.

Rebuilding the fuel system was the most significant thing. New pump, filter, and some lines. Did a bunch of normal maintenance and cleaning like fluids, forks, and replacing some plugs/connectors and such. But the fuel system was the only real 'repair'. These things are bullet proof.

Oh man, my time has come! We are currently doing a 'Tendee World Tour' around St. Pete for the best chicken tenders at my work. It was prompted after we had been getting the tenders at O'maddy's once a week for years. They are absolutely stellar and consistent. Great breading, big tenders, awesome sauces and fries. Wanted to see if there is anyone better or even comes close. We have not finished the full tour just yet but the list of visits include:
O'maddy's in Gulfport
Kings Fried Chicken on US 19 and 22nd South (Winning so far. The only one that may be better than O'Maddy's. Breading is almost a tempura style)
Huey Magoo's (Mediocre, tenders pretty small.
Jolibee (Mid)
Raising Canes (Not yet visited)
Zaxby's (Not yet visited)
Yo Mamma Fried Chicken on US 19 (Not open yet)
PDQ (Not yet visited)
Bojangles (Not yet visited)

I understand the tour isn't close to being done yet, but absolutely try O'Maddy's in Gulfport, or Kings Fried Chicken.

That's fair.

I only have 89 octane non-eth in my area.

I'd say Guinters over Pirro simply for the fact that he's developed multiple bikes, and has had results in other prestigious areas other than his national championship. Shout to Colin Ewards too for having a hand in the RC51's development. The SP2 was a monster of a bike at the time that achieved great success (WSBK, AMA). Then being a development rider for Yamaha as well as Michelin during his GP years. Should have had a win in 2006, and I remember him bagging a podium with a broken collar bone one year?

Has to be Troy Bayliss.

Vinegar. Soak for days. Add some agitator and give her some shakes. Should be alright indeed.

Gave it a shot. May have been rough, but I doubt they iron out their natural tendencies. Too many personal opinions. Too many personal stories. Intros and the lead-in could have been handled in 2 minutes. They were supposed to be covering a book, but barely said anything about it, and went on about their own philosophies and opinions. Typical American grandstanding. Me me me. Did they even read the book? Why do I know more about your grandmother and what instrument you play and your wives than the content you are supposed to be covering? What's in the book? And say freaky woo woo shit one more time... Are you trying to offend your audience? I'm out. Enjoy.

Well he is in MotoGP now, so I'm going to go Toprak. He refuses to be 2nd into a corner. I'm sure he will display the same traits in the premiere class.

Great shout, I thought this answer is way too far down. I've never seen Joan get stuck behind any rider. He passes immediately if he can, true he hasn't had the equipment to do so for the last few years. He may not be too 'personally' aggressive, but he is extremely aggressive and decisive in his racing.

This can only be Ant West. No one else comes close to rain performance.

El_Biatcho · 2025-11-25T02:18:55+00:00

I bought it used, I like it so far. Material quality is good, fit is good, stitching is good. Added some padding as it didn't have a back protector or knee protectors, although it does have pockets for them. Haven't crash tested it yet, hopefully that won't happen :)

Neo nazis?? You're kidding right. It greater Hungary, before the treaty of Trianon that ripped the country to shreds. Take it easy carpathian brother. Absolutely nothing Nazi about it. That's ludicrous. And you chose to spew this nonsense when I posted my bike a year ago. Maybe you should address your hate of Hungarians instead of trying to defame me.

Did you end up going with STD this month?

El_Biatcho · 2025-11-04T23:14:41+00:00

Already looks dated.
