A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.
Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.
Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
Here is my effort with the "As seen on TV" DingKing and the glue gun after the exhaust pipe fell on my tank. Thank you very much
Before:
After:
When I bought my current MC, the previous owner was going over stuff .
He was asking "what would you do about this " and that ? I figured maybe he had some sales skills and was trying to use a "projection" technique OR he really was attached.
Funny thing he said he heard to fill the tank with water and freeze it to pop the dents out.
I thought it was rediculous. one of several attempts to de-rust the inside(/remove failed, improper applied kreme) I had it full of couple "The Works" bottles and water and it froze once...Did nothing for dents. Didn't freeze solid though.
I was unaware of couple of dents , until I burned the paint off, and bondo dust/crumbs fell off.
Planning to cover one with maybe a Suzuki "S" logo . It'll be Gold flake used for picture frame touch-up.
With clearcoat on top. I could just find a printable image and use it for a stencil. The stuff is very Gold looking. Probably good for pinstripes BTW.
Another larger dent I could cover with a tank protector. Been daydreaming of same shape except cut from brass possibly.
Working on this bike I ponder how silly paint is on vehicles. Like "it's a great car, Oh, but the paint is scratched!" I really dislike paint.
Dents too. Imagine some folks are just hateful "Dentists" ...they don't like dents.
My other vehicle is a work truck and each dent/scratch was some $ it made.
Autobody guys should say they're "Dentists" for a joke maybe(?)
I think there's a few reasons for the Ichibon Moto vibe with some MC's:
One would be a lot of younger males especially ride/ work on their MCs.
The other would be that since the beginning motorcycles have been a budget vehicle.
Cheaper. Cheapest way to get H.P.:weight also
IMO both lend to the theme of the vid(s) probably.
Some of my own gear/ MC stuff I've had so long I get it out and toss it, like "what the heck was I thinking/saving this for?" or "I'm too old now" but other times wondering ,"Now how the heck did I make a buffer wheel from old carpet and polish those forks?" "That worked better somehow, what did I use?"
I can still put something together in my yard Because I want/need it to ride.
Because I ride. And that's what it's ALL about IMO.
Others go to a bike shop and spend thousands and that makes them "a biker" ...If I had it like that I would buy there too, but going to a shop and paying too much , to "look" a certain way , or get MC to, is not anything /much to do with riding IMO.
Must rest (Sleepy at the moment).[/rnt]
This one can't even find the cafe section and posts this stuff as a sort of "gaydar" ping in the appearance section.
This one can't comprehend when somebody asks whatever price for an MC and he offers half he "Hates people" because he's been looking for that bike for three years and the guy won't take like $400 for it and he's asking $1100 BUT it should be HIS because the "guy is an idiot"...still has a sore butt regarding my rant in his thread (among other things).
This one is I'm fairly certain a 215+ LB. Gal , but the sig says "Larry" probably what her friends call her I think.
I think he says you're flamboyant, narcissistic, fat and gay. Not sure how anybody can think that, wow?
