Default been gone for a while......

have had quite a bit going on.... new baby!, work, epileptic dog, 25+"s of snow, christening.... a very busy past few months.

my winter mod? HOOKING UP MY BATTERY TENDER! lol

actually, the next mod will be new front rotors and pads. mine developed a slight pulse on low-speed stops.

anyone have any source for aftermarket rotors other than ebay? i found a couple pair at www.liquidchoppers.com but before i make the purchase, id like to see all that are available. keep in mind, my wheels are the stock spokers with wide white walls.

so what have i missed??

Look into the Lyndall pads and Harley's floating rotors aren't too expensive, check them out. I would be leary about some no-name rotors.

Remember winter bringing out debates on 1%'ers, azzless chaps/fingerless gloves, people getting beat up for buying wrong item and/or paying too much, real bikers vs posers and where to set the gas cap?

Well they're all still here and going on daily!!

Nothing, besides a bazillion cam threads with everybody having the best cam, same oil, jack, fingerless glove, assless chaps, waving, not waving, my dog can beat up your dog, what torque wrench, oil filter, and last but not least is the which tuner is the best threads that continue to provide adequate entertainment.

How's the baby?

EDIT: wow, IndyClassic already beat me to the punch.....!!! Scary!!
