Greetings,

Was going down the highway on the long weekend, when I came up behind an new
Toyota Corolla wagon. Traffic was thick so I stuck behind him. Then he cleans
his windshield. I am only wearing a half helmet and cheap sunglasses. Mind
you I have a small cruiser shield, but it didn't help. What a mess all over
my face. DAMN. I want revenge on CAGER's.

On to some real material. What are the advantages of going to a belt primary?
Weight? Vibration? Power? ????? I'd like to know. Please post.

Thanks alot.

You're not interested?!  I had hoped to ask you out!

I have a '80 CX 500 with 37k, the only repairs it has had have been brakes and
a water pump impeller and seal. It has never had anything but Castrol GTX
20w50 . I like Valvoline also. I have a Camaro with 110k that has never had 
anything done to the engine (1 tuneup). I change the Valvoline every 3k along 
with a filter. I think oil change intervals and proper warmups are more critical
than brands as long as the oil is rated for the proper use (I mean the top 
brands) Harleys run lower oil temps than most bikes this could affect the oil
choice but I admit I'm not sure how.

Less weight thus quicker response and more power.  Depending on the
brand, less maintenance.  I'd not recommend those with tensioner.
Karata is good.

Sigh.  Why is objecting to silly comments and denigrating remarks
considered to be wrong?

IF she is offended it may be heaps of reasons, but lack of a sense of humour
may not be one of them.

Maybe she is just sick of that sort of shit.  I am!  What happened to all 
those literate intelligent types who eamiled me to say
how many of them there are out there?

ObMoto:
Long time ago I had a Honda chop.  One of the radical, Santee framed, 6" over
jobs with black pearl paint, coffin tank, 3 foot sissy bar etc.

(I got it as a kit bike....  I couldn't resist)

Well, one day I rode it into town, met up with friends, and about 2am
realised I was too drunk to ride home.  Catch a taxi, and return with 
one of my housemates in the morning.  Said housemate was 6 foot 2, 
hair down to there, beard to match, earring, torn jeans etc.  Real
BikerDude (tm).  Except he didn't have one.  Never has.

So we headed off in his van, about 9am Sunday.  As a gentle drizzle was
drizzling, he leans up against the van watching me go through the 
rather complex starting drill.  Later he said some bloke came up to
him and said:
"Hey!  Why do you let her ride your bike?"
So he gave the only possible answer:
"because it's raining!"

Sorry, but riding a bike is automatic admission to babehood. No offense
intended, as to me babe is a complimentary term. Nothing like a scooter between
the legs to increase a woman's attractiveness. Decreases the necessity for 
long legs and big hooters. :-)

Actually, that is a Reebok add not a Nike add. So don't buy Reeboks
If you have a Harley, you would wear boots anyway and Nike doesn't make

  Has anyone else seen the commercial for the new synthetic oil which
they show by filling a bunch of engines with various brands, draining
all the oil out, then running to failure with residual lubrication? I'm
wainting for some less biased and more scientific tests than that, but
it's an interesting commercial.

  I would never use anything but regular oil for breakin, of course.

'Scuse me?  You mean that comment was intended to be *funny*?
If I'm lacking a sense of humour, then you're lacking sensitivity,
and aren't they type of guy I'd be interested in anyhow.

Which is as good an illustration of the problem as any.

Excellent!  However, some observations ...

Stage 1A is a *very* early stage.  You escaped with very light
treatment, and others might not be so lucky.  I'm a little surprised
that the radiation by itself gave you nausea, but different people
react differently -- and chemotherapy will tend to give you significant
nausea.  I was diagnosed as stage 3B after appearance of a lump on the
left neck.  About 6 months of chemo and three weeks of local radiation
later I was done with treatment.  Near the end, nausea started to become
more of a factor, but I preferred to puke instead of taking more
drugs.  Those with longer courses of treatment may not be able to
make this choice with full success.  I never had any nausea (or any
other problems) from the radiation, though I was warned repeatedly
about these.  And food never bothered me (in fact I put on about 10
pounds during the course of my treatment).  Reactions are very idiosyncratic.
HD is eminently curable.  If you've got to have cancer, it's the one
to have.

Just a word of caution regarding megadoses of vitamin C as a cure-all for
cancer or any other illness.  Since Pauling studies, which were done nearly
20 years ago, it has been fairly well documentated that vitamin C does not
perform as well as these studies claim, and in the instance of taking
mega-doses while pregnant, excess vitamin C absorbed prenatally can acutally
cause the new born to be anemic once the baby's system stop receiving the
vitamin C supplements.  More recent research seems to point to the fact
that excess vitamins can do more harm than good to the body (the latest
findings are linking excess iron with cancer) and nothing beats a well
rounded diet to improve and maintain health.  I personally do not take
any vitamin supplements nor do I give any to my son, but we have been
blessed with good health.  To me nothing could be more healthful than
fresh fruits and veggies with a decrease in fat and animal protein.
I can understand the temptation to try anything, especially if you do
have cancer, but I think caution should be exercised with nutrient supple
ment for infants and children.  Of course, nothing should be taken
prenatally without consulting a doctor or at least a nutritionist first.
