That reminds me of a really weird recurring dream (nightmare) I often have.
I dream I'm trying to take off in some kind of small airplane using a freeway
as the runway and I'm being chased by somebody and everytime I get up enough
speed to get airborne, there's too many $#%@!$% overhead electric wires to
attempt takeoff and cars or other obstacles in front of me that I have to hop
the plane over. Really weird, especially since I don't know how to fly a plane.
(But I bet I could get one off the ground and control it somewhat reasonably
once it's got some altitude.... landing might be somewhat, er, interesting 
though).

ObMoto> I wonder how many denizens secretly fantasize that they're flying a
fighter jet through a tight twisty canyon while riding the twisties with
sparks flying from the bike's lower extremeties against the pavement.

 Here's a better idea:  ban the little snot-gobblers from any place a

can eat in peace, ban them from stores so I don't have to wipe
Choc-O-Jell fingerprints from the handles of the shopping carts.
Perhaps a leash law would also be appropriate.

 It's the responsibility of the parent (who's likely brain-dead too) to
teach the little curtain climbers not to mess with other people's stuff.
The last couple of times I found some little snot on my bike, it had
released its bowels before I got finished screaming at it.  That's a

  You could use two block and tackles and just tie off on
the front triple tree and around the rear wheel then just
lift it up. As for your second problem dont drink so
much tea but do increase the beer intake (it may not make
you physically better.. but at least you'll have good reason

	Reading the FAQ is a start.  A few decent flames might help, and
then there is being a regular presence in this group.  You might also
submit a bid for the bra auction, but this is certainly not required.
A doctorate in physics might help in the flames, but won't be

Hi,

	My brother is selling his Fieldsheer racing leathers.  I would buy
them, but I've decided that I need to waste my money trying to earn another
degree rather than race (which would probably be much more fun :-).  He's
selling because his Ninja 900 was stolen shortly after he bought the suit,
and hasn't the money for another bike, as he's in school.  The leathers
are in pristine condition, never crashed in, never even scraped.

	They are the red/black/white Mirage style from 1990 with knee
sliders, hard plastic knee armor, foam armor in the back, elbows, shoulders,
shins, and hips.  There are vent holes in the elbows, and zipper vents
in the sides.  There is one lapel pocket.

	These are, of course, one-piece racing leathers, but "jacket" size
is about 42, and waist is about 32-34 or so.  My brother is about 5'10" and
135 pounds.  I'm about the same height and about 20 pounds heavier and
correspondingly wider in the shoulders and hips, and they fit me fine.  I've
ridden in them once or twice and they feel great.

	He is asking $300 or best offer.  Feel free to respond via email
or at (412) 731-7607.  Haggling or trading is acceptable.  Let's talk.

Rob

You do have an assest though in Iowa, does the term Knoxville Nationals 
ring a bell.  The best dirt racing on *four* wheels!  Kinda like bike week 
in Daytona, but for World of Outlaws (Sprint Cars) in Iowa.

i took a roadrace school and started running in open practices ~9 months
after i got my first bike.  actually, one open practice.  kinda wadded
the bike on the back straight at nelson ledges :).  '83 750 Interceptor,
as a matter of fact.

i live in rochester, MN.  i run at blackhawk farms in beloit WI and at BIR
up in brainerd.  i'd suggest blackhawk.  they have lots of events and AMA

I don't know about the FZR 750 but there was an article in Performance Bikes
(a British Motorbike mag) about a guy who put an FZR1000 engine into an OW01
frame.

(this might be the FZR750 but I don't think so. I think the OW01 is the
 FZR750R. Confused - I sure as hell am.)

yes, i was also wondering about the transmissions.  i'd like to keep the
6 speed.  what are the chances i can get the 6 speed into the 1000 case? :)

it's got the pipe, ignition, and cams.  not sure about pistons.  i suspect
