  1. If you're in OC, check out Driven Bikes, they'are in Costa Mesa. They have a few models, and colors, and their customer service is killer. I have their fat tire beach cruiser, and I have around 2K miles on it with zero issues. I bought my wife their womens cruiser a couple years back, paid cash, no sales tax, and her's has been flawless as well.

    I'd be expecting to pay about $2K for a nice 750W bike with the large battery.

    How do you steer into a bridge pillar? Unless you do it on purpose? Peace

    Seriously?

    How do you correct course with no power, or rudder with 100K Tons of inertia in motion? The ship lost power, which also mean propulsion, steering, navigation, everything.

    They dropped the port anchor in attempts to slow down, but it wasn't enough.

  3. I'm retiring the beginning of 2025, it's the year I turn 55. 

    I do plan on getting some sort of part time job just to give me somewhere to go occasionally in the morning. There's a hardware store in our little town that we are retiring to, and my buddy owns it, so I'm planning on working there, maybe on the weekends, so I have the weekdays all to myself, and also the river is much less crowded.

    I have hobbies too, so I don't see myself being bored, but if I am, oh well, I'm retired.

    I am out of room underneath the truck and need to somehow fit an air tank. This one that came in the kit I don't think I have a place for it and might need to make something. I would assume as long as I have the volume any shape is fine? I will also need to fit two oil coolers. One for the motor and one for the trans.

    Not sure if it will match the look of your truck, but what if you made a smaller air tank that looked like an old school gas tank mounted on the front of the truck, like the old drag cars?

    My kid went through a similar situation when he bought his CRF450R. The seller was a test track rider for Kawasaki. There was title but it had never been registered with the CA DMV. I had my kid call the DMV to make sure the vin was clear ( It was ) and we went ahead with the purchase. If I remember correctly, he had to pay sales tax on his purchase and the fees involved with registering it with the DMV.

    Thats an MSO, not a title. If you in fact have a title, that means it's been registered in what ever state the title is from.

    The way it works is the manufacturer issues an MSO for the vehicle, the "dealer" will take that MSO and do the registration process with the customer at the time of purchase, sales tax will be paid, and the vehicle will be issued a "Title"

    If buying direct from a manufacturer, which is what a lot of MX guys do, then the individual is given an MSO, and pays no sales tax on the vehicle. When it comes time for someone to "register" that vehicle, they will take the MSO to the DMV, pay sales tax, on the original amount of the vehicle, and they will receive a title. 

    If you have a title, it's been registered, if you have an MSO, it's never been registered.

    on it, some cool photos in there had to vote on a couple

    Yeah, there's a bunch, every month there are good ones, I actually have 2 in there, but the Class 11 one started to gain some traction.

    The 5/1600 photo, I actually thought would get some action since it's a super famous old car.

    What's up with this guy nowadays? Minus all the hype, is he a good driver? I'm not seeing a lot of advertising with him on the podium.

    Blake has been racing Class 11 pretty hard the last few years, and he has impressive results, like 34 wins in like 40 races or something close to that. He can drive.

    He's also super cool, and I can't think of anyone that works harder then him. He's a class act.

    The wheel is narrower than the stock can am wheel and that is why there is more clearance on the sidewalk.  
     

    Those forged wheel are usually 5” wide wheels.   

    Well Nick just posted that the wheel does infact have a different offset, and is a 5/1, so they moved the wheel outboard 1". He also posted that the Rockzilla or something square will not fit according to Can Am

    Noticed the same.  Curious how the 35 fits on the stock wheel.

    My guess is they don't. When they said it fit a BFG 35, this might be how. And now the scrub radius has changed, which was one of the reasons they did this.

    35” BFG clearance and looks halfway decent with the aftermarket cage

    They definitely used a different offset wheel, look how far the tire is from the knuckle, I wonder if that was a necessity to run a 35? In one of the videos, a guy cant even fit his finger between it and the stock tire, This looks like 3" of clearance.
