True lol.

If you're new to riding a motorcycle, here are some things to make note of:
  • Do not ride a bike up a motorcycle ramp, walk it up.

  • Do not park a motorcycle on an elevated porch.

  • Do not attempt a motorcycle jump from said elevated porch. (accidental or on purpose)

  • If said jump occurs, remember to keep a camera handy.(hindsight is a wicked mistress)

  • Do not accept a lift on a motorcycle from Pete after said jump. (wheelies and endos will ensue)


Ah, I love my friends. :thumbup: Where was google glass back then!?

Sadly, I couldn't find any photos of the event. My roommate at the time had some, but he lost them when he moved out.

Just say no to HP and drugs. You always get used to a certain level and it gets really expensive to keep upping the ante every time you do.
Have a plan for your hobby car, a lot of time and money can be wasted undoing and redoing things for another path.

Sup! :thumbup: That thing is expensive and I didn't know where it wound up. Enjoy your hydraulic valve system! :lol:

I've been racking my brain for useful advice to pass on, and I'm afraid I don't have much - I got relatively lucky with my wrenching adventures. As expensive as new cars might seem, sometimes they're a better idea than "I'll just get an old POS and fix it up" is my number one.

BMW has funky sized parts and you'll find yourself at a tractor supply store at some point.

*Edit- By funky I mean German. It's perfectly good but ... like yaaah ve need za vierd size because it's sooper cool.
