So no I don't think the world will end that would end all gods fun if he is real. WOW guess I have that holiday depresion you hear about but think I"m allowed. So I guess I think you should celibrate each holiday as they come, more drinking days that way woohoo. Think I need to go for a ride have a great day everyone....................

Now, that my opinion is done, the reason I say that is because God stated nobody will know when He sends His Son back, not even his Son. So, since His Son doesn't know, I seriously doubt the Mayans do.

Donna - In response to your "hornet" comment from last month, actually the 2006 R1 did have a special edition made that was yellow and black. However, probably not exactly what you were thinking. I need to take some updated pictures of my bike. Those were taken when I first got it back in 2010. I've done some updates since then and even found and put on the exhaust guards, which aren't in those pictures (but they are on the bike in the race picture).



Sorry to hear it wasn't a fuse. It could be a relay, but I'm surprised that you would have to replace a while fuse box just for that. Normally relays are just small silver boxes inside of the fuse box and are about $20 a piece and you can get them from a dealer or sometimes even a local auto parts store depending on what fuse they are. But you have to be careful and make sure they are the right one. However, if it's not a blown fuse, then I'm guessing it's not a grounded wire because that should have blown a fuse first. So, next step is I would check the kill switch on the handlebar. 1) Are you sure you didn't accidentally hit it? I'm not trying to be a smartazz, but I have accidentally hit it before and if you don't realize it or check it, you don't know why the bike won't turn over or start again, but everything still turns "on" with the key. 2) If the kill switch shows that it is on, I would take it apart and check it. If the bike has been sitting in any kind of weather, it's possible it got corroded inside and it's possible it's turning itself off, which is NOT good. Especially if it happens while you are riding! So, that's one thing to check. Make sure the connections are good and it's not faulty.

While you are at it, make sure both connections at the battery are good and not corroded. Also make sure the battery has a tip top charge. These bikes are VERY touchy when it comes to not having a 90% or better charge to start and run. But most likely it would have turned over (or tried to) when you went to start it. Another likely prospect is the regulator on the bike. When they go faulty, they don't charge the battery and kill it off while you ride. If it killed it enough, it wouldn't have allowed the bike to turn on and/or start. So, see how dead the battery is and then test the regulator. See if you can get a service manual for the bike (eBay, Kawasaki, ZX Forums, etc...) and it should show you in there how to test your particular regulator. I know these go bad R1's kind of often because they are positioned near the exhaust and the heat kills them off.

Anyway, just some thoughts I had on your issue this morning. Hope it helps somehow.

I hope everyone has a great day!

People need to remember that this is our interpretation of what we are finding in ruins of a society that no longer exists and we are making assumptions about the meanings.
They led a different life, in a different environment and had different views than the current society.
You might as well go have your tea leaves read and live you life by what you are told.

I feel we should live everyday like it is a holiday and not wait until societies holidays roll around to appreciate the people and things in our life.
