Woot, I bought another motorcycle.

 

since rx7club apparently doesn't have a "this thread is useless without pics" Smiley... you get michael jackson instead.

 

i have been stopped by 3 cops in the past month telling me to put my front plate on since it is REQUIRED in state of MD (which it is). i had it sitting in the windshield but its sloped back so much that its unreadable unless yer above me.

in OTHER news, I can apparently get motorcycle insurance for $104 for 12 months for me

 

I don't have front plates in any of my cars, the one time I did get stopped / got a ticket in my RX-7 (like 2 or 3 years ago), I had it on the dash, so I don't do that anymore. It just draws attention to the fact that it's not on your front bumper.

that and if you get in an accident with it on your dash, it could decapitate you

 

If they didn't give you a repair order, forgetaboutit. I've 2 in the past 3 years, but they're cheap tickets, and they didn't give me a repair order so I paid the fine and didn't fix it.

 

Base security hassles me about it every month, goin on a year now and it's still there. The former owner drilled holes in the bumper to accommodate it but, i don't have screws either so i'll be lazy until a cop actually cares enough to pull me over for it.

I don't see a Fudds thread, is that still going on or are they suspended pending the MD BBQ?

 

Make a thread

It's $71 a year for me!

 

which base? I work on several different bases, but only one in MD. I hope they don't bug me about it.

Do you have base stickers on your car?

 

I got pulled over by military police on FT Meade about it as well as a county cop at a gas station. actually got warning tickets (not repair orders)

 

what company you get it from?

statefarm - $230
USAA/Progressive - $182
GEICO - $104

 

we havent set a date for the april meet yet. March one already happened.

 

Ft Meade, yes.

Noted, for reference i would prefer that it *not be the weekend of the 12-13th.

 

I get mine through State Farm.

 

if you make the thread, you can make it whatever weekend you want

 

I think we should try to get rid of the front plate there are soo many people that dont want it because their cars don't have a place for it. The governor passes any thing he gets his hands on any way. Don't get me started with him go to micky d's and get a drink and it is a $1.06 WTF that penny makes me soo mad

And hopefully i will have my 3rd gen back for the next fudds meet should hopefully be done mid April then make the trip to Nj to get it.

 

YAY! I got coil-overs in the mail today

JIC-Magic FLT-TARs:




they will cure this nicely...

 

Neat, now get it running

 

me and ken are working on it

we're actually really close, probably next weekend.

 

How much and where from? I'm still trying to decide how to cure my 4x4 mode, and I don't think I want to just use springs since the LS1 going in will cause a lot of wheelhop.

 

YES! WOOOOOOOOOOO

 

a smidge under $1800

I'm not putting them on until after my car is running for a bit so I have a good comparison, I'll post a review after I put them on.

 

$71 and $104 for a year of motorcycle insurance?! Jesus. I was quoted over $400 for a year on a Kawasaki Ninja 250, liability only.

How much damage could one do on a 300lb bike, honestly?!

 

Lets find out!

 

You'd be surprised. I caused several hundred dollars worth to my own car by dropping my bike in the garage when my knee gave out. Just falling over at a traffic light into someone's car could cause quite a bit. How much do you think THIS caused? And yes I know that it was the car owner's fault, but that's irrelevant.

Hood and a front bumper.

My bill: $200
Body shop bill: Maybe a grand and some change.


I can do more damage in what I drive currently.

If I do damage on a bike, I expect to not hear about it.
