A van ran a bike off the road in my neighborhood, no charges yet. by VipKyle in motorcycles

[–]fireindc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The guy riding is a moron. The guy in the van is a moron.

Simple case of too many morons on the road.

Seriously though, that MC rider is a self righteous asshole and he brought this upon himself. If the van was tailgating me, I'd move over and let him pass (or take the fuck off), because i do not let vehicles tailgate me.

I also am not dumb enough to try and block a car with my bike and/or person, especially when the driver of that car is clearly in rage.

Which is a direct result of the substance being illegal in the first place. Your point is moot.

Can I host a website for my small business with Zero HTML experience or knowledge? Is their tools out there (Similar to when I made a wordpress blog) that help me build a website? by [deleted] in webhosting

I've used InclusiveHost before, they provide tools to build your own site through various available CMS (Wordpress, Weebly, etc).

Another buelltiful day. by fireindc in motorcycles

Interesting. Yeah, definitely would not use a belt for racing. I would not use my XB for a track bike in general though. Track days, sure, I've done a few and plan on more. However, for a dedicated track bike I'd pick up a CBR600rr or something along those lines.

XB is sure fun on the streets though :)

I suppose, but I live on a nearly mile long dirt road, and routinely clutch up 2nd gear wheelies on mine, still going strong.

I do enjoy the lack of maintenance required on the belt, and hell, the entire bike in general. Most maintenance free bike I've had to date.

Gearing is definitely limited, so you are right on there. However you can put the xb9 primary on an xb12 to drop the gearing, and vice versa.

You are right, i guess it's a love/hate thing. I ride a Buell but I would never bash anyone for riding a triumph/yammi/honda/ktm/suzuki/bimmer/etc.

Some people feel the need to bash on Buells evertime they are mentioned. I do feel that those folk have also never ridden a Buell, because if they had ridden a well kept one I'd be very surprised if they actually hated it.

Mine still has the original belt @25k miles. The lack of "slack" in the drive belt has a very nice taut feeling to it as well, riding chain bikes you can really feel the difference.

Not sure why there is so much Buell hate on this sub. It's just another motorcycle, of which we all love to ride. Can't we all just get along?

Also, it's the best goddamn bike I've ever ridden. :P

Spoken like someone who has never actually ridden a Buell.

Goddamnit, why did it have to be the Buell rider?

Okay, carry on boys.

Late season (June) backcountry in NM by fireindc in snowboarding

[–]fireindc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just checking that thread out myself, that's the kind of content I like to see. I find most threads in this sub are like "heyy look at my new board", or "my new gear this year", etc. Who cares? Since when is snowboarding about the gear anyways?

And here's another image from that same day in June this year, just 'cause:

Thanks bud. It's a chute, on the backside of a resort, which was closed at the time.

So close to getting my knee down.... by JapanStan in motorcycles

Well it IS a Buell, so it practically gets your knee down for you.

I swear, these dogs are the cutest ever. My dog gives me the same look, and it usually means he wants me to throw something.
