I should replace at least one of the tires on my backhoe 19.5L x 24, it aint cheap either!

The reason i bought the tuna can(suzuki) back in June, was because my fuel bill in march was $1400, april was $1750, and May was $1600.

You've got a Kan-o'-tuna?? SWEET!! I had a 750 years ago. I helped a guy put an oil-cooled GSX-R1100 engine up in a 600 chassis. Basically just left off the lowers, tweaked the piping, and you had a nice little sleeper...

Back when fuel was $1.25 my fuel bill would $10k to $12k a month

Good lord! Im glad I only work 2-3 days a week! No way Id be able to calculate that bill and not be in the hospital!

I believe his is a vehicle, not a bike.That is a pretty cool sounding project though Brendan!

My lattest tow.. guy ran out of fuel.. SO, what the hey.. I hooked up..

papadelogan · #**2576** (**permalink**) 01-30-2009, 12:35 PM

RIGHT!!! I remember now! funny though, his "tuna can" comment had me laughing HARD!! oh, and that bike was wicked fast too. the guy made a bunch of money racing it for a while because it looked like a beater & had "600" stickers on it. Suckers!

I sold a couple guys the engine out of my CBR600. They built a cart around it. It had the potential for about 120mph.... just think, a 6-speed, 100hp, ram-air go-kart that was home built...

100 hp go cart.. i could only dream.. of course.. couldnt use something like that here in Michigan.. The pot holes would swallow it..

Uhh hey guys. Back from my test. I scored a 184 on the reading section and a 182 on the math section. I won't know the writing part of the test until they score my essay.

I guess thats pretty good, since the top score you can get is a 190! I'm pretty happy with that, seeing as how I haven't been in college for 4 years....and I didn't study for this test. Apparently you're supposed to study for it, and I didn't know that until this morning when I started the test. Oops.

I was almost late for it..which is bad because I paid $180 to take this freakin thing. I almost ran out of gas in Randy's Jeep on the way there. :-)

How is everyone else's day going? Nice pull there Pat!!!

Well, I'm sitting at the dealership

, waiting to find out how much my..........

"free oil changes for life is going to cost me"

It's not the PSD, it's time for a oil change in our Nissan minivan

.

I would have to say it's a pretty sweet shop and they have four desktops in the waiting area, so I can puruse FTE.

How everyone doing?
