I just remembered that when my parents had this house built seven years ago, an attic was made! But my father always said not to go up there because of safety reasons. Well, my parents are out of the house, so I'm thinking that I'm going to go up there and see what it's like! What do you think I...

There's a company here in the US that makes mounting systems for these kinds of things, for iPods, phones, etc. (They call it a GPS here, not SatNav, But you knew that, right?). http://www.ram-mount.com/ You buy a sort of clamp that goes on your handlebars. It has a ball/socket joint, and...

Neither one really has a lot of miles. I guess I'd go for the 2004 because I don't think the difference between the two models is very much. The aftermarket exhaust would play no part in my decision, unless it was a lot louder and then I wouldn't want it. When someone puts an aftermarket...

Cruisers make excellent first bikes. This bike has a lot going for it. A 750 cruiser shouldn't be too hard to manage for a beginner, but it's big enough for some serious high-speed long-distance stuff if you end up wanting to do that. For $1500 you could do a lot worse. I think it all...

Brass is easy to form so the bell might be cheaper to make even if the brass costs more than steel. Also brass makes a nice bell, it has a nice sound.

Certainly it's going to be a hard fought election, everyone knows that. But three editors is not a significant sample. Wherever you read this, could it be that someone asked 50 editors, then picked the 3 that said what the person wanted? The Republicans really have nothing going for them in...

Biodiversity means a natural diversity of species. For instance, a forest has trees that shade undergrowth plants, which in turn protect the soil from animals that eat the trees. There are insects that eat dead trees and fallen leaves, converting them into mulch and natural fertilizer, and...

Whoah, dude! You need to use a period or a comma once in a while. If you're short, then remember you want to be able to sit on a bike and put both feet flat on the ground. Seems like this hasn't been a problem for you so far. but it's something to think about. After you take the MSF course...

It's not a big deal. Years ago, piston rings had to wear in to match the cylinder walls. You had to change the oil at 400 mi. because it was full of metal shavings from the piston rings. And while they were doing that, they'd look over the bike and see if there were any other problems...

Come on, Shiz Man! Let's see how tough you really are.. in conversation! Shiz Man, are you a Formidable Opponent?

Appeals are not a last-resort, then are a next-resort. 8^) If you aren't pleased by a decision, and you have enough money and are angry enough, you can almost always find a way to appeal the decision. In this case, though the ruling is only in effect in California, it's national politics we're...

The Interceptor and the CBR are both wonderful bikes. I remember when the Interceptor first came out, back in the 1980s, one magazine reviewer called it 'God's Own Sewing Machine'. It was 'The Bike That Does Everything Well', a mild version of a sportbike that was more general purpose. The...
