Most pumps have two speeds, ( at least at prepay ) If you purchance say 20 dollars, it pumps fast until you reach about 2 dollars then pumps slow, simply keep your fuel purchases two dollars or under, this keeps the pump in it's slowest speed.
Also keeping the nozzle to a 45 degree angle with the bulk of the nozzles opening to one side of the bar helps.. I get very few splatters this way.. I like cutting the bar idea, have considered it myself, but until i do this works pretty well.

What your measuring is rpm's rounds per minuet. The 139 uses wasted spark, meaning it fires each revolution, Power, and exhaust, Since your spark plug fires every revolution you want your rpm gauge to register each revolution.

I went to my local Autozone and got fuel lines specifically designed to handle Ethanol.. They are black and one can't see thur them.. but they aren't falling apart like the blue ones did.

I can confirm it's true. I had the blue ones, and honestly loved being able to see the fuel flow, but the Ethanol did destroy the lines..

Although I have no proof what so ever, I em against the use of energy drinks, other than coffee.. I had a chance to work for 5 hour energy when I was unemployed, and flatly refused.. The pay they were offering was 5 dollars more per hour than what I'm getting now.
But I just could not do it, just because they say it's safe, don't mean I believe them. Any of them, we learn so much as time passes, there was a time when Teflon coating were considered safe, now that's being taken off the market... I use exclusively cast Iron or stainless steel cook ware for every thing.. Call me crazy but if your body requires an energy drink, its time to give it what it really needs....Rest and sleep..
As for so called boosters for our scoots, well the best booster i know is displacement, fuel, and gearing... Anything else is just a waste of money.

Sorry I guess I am from another time or something , been in too many wrecks and seen to many wrecks from careless cagers that don't care. Lost fellow riders from cagers . What they did on the video does not show the whole story , some of your sane comments I've heard before but with cruser riders instead of rice rocket riders taking the blame . The media and police will show that its those mad max bikers terrorizing and out for blood crap only to put another bad light on us all . Believe what you want , we have that right . The taking care of business I do stand beside , when was the last time you were out for a ride with your buddy and a cager runs him down without even looking were they were going or even care , or your wife ran off the rode and the cager took off ? Am I biased to the bikers , yes possibly but then I've been there and how would you react ? Should the bikers had bashed the dudes head in , no blocking him in and waiting for police to settle it yes ...oh but wait when they tried that he ran them over even more so if he's out for my blood and doesn't care I'm just supposed to let it go? Sorry if a blind cager runs me over for no reason I hope my brothers will chase him down and stop him so the police can take his butt to jail. I think we can't generalize every traffic accident, because as a biker you get ran over by cars. I'm sure when the accident happened, what should have happened is that the bikers would stop and first provide first aid to the wounded biker. They should have treated the driver of the 4 wheels with respect, and call the police, to file a report. If they had handled it with cool heads, instead of hotheads, like the mentality of the writer I'm quoting here, everything would have gone fine with just a ticket, or insurance claim or whatever. However because a few bikers not doing things the right way, other bikers who have kept their heads cool ended up in the accident with him! Treating violence with violence will get you NOWHERE (but in jail, or an early retirement to the next world). I would agree with this, but the covered plate's speak volumes.. 1. It's illegal, 2. it shows the groups true intent to do something they weren't suppose to be doing, 3. shows they were aware it was illegal and didn't want to be caught. 4. was premeditated.. |

Covered Plates = Means doing something they should not be doing. The bikers tried to dominate the the road and that's again not legal. One of them got hit because of it. Seldom do I find myself on a cagers side.. But this case screams premeditated by the bikers.

Sorry if a blind cager runs me over for no reason I hope my brothers will chase him down and stop him so the police can take his butt to jail. Look at the video, this was premeditated, why else would you have the plates on your bike covered ? I too em a long time bike rider.. Long enough to know what the bikers were doing here was wrong. Completely wrong. As for "taking care of business". If anybody had any grounds for that it's the cager. I em biker bias, but in this case the bikers were looking for trouble and when they didn't find any, they created it. The guy in the SUV was actually very nice under the circumstances, surround my car make me think my family is in danger, I promise you, I'm going to use my car's weight and power to make your day a very bad one, and if you never see another day ohhh well.. There is no justification for covering your plates on any vehicle unless your doing something you should not be doing.. |

I saw the video on Fox news, these guys were out for trouble.. They had there license plates on their bikes covered.. If he and run them all over I would have had no sympathy for them.. If this sounds cold so be it.

The right thing to do would have been for the bikers to follow the guy, call the police.. Surrounding him was WRONG..

I have a hard time believing that guy didn't have a cell phone. I also find it sad that a group that large is willing to do this crap... I personally would not care, the second one surrounds my car on the Hwy, with my wife and kids in it, all heck is breaking loose. I have a cell phone as do most people, most family's have more than one. |

Well I know most consider me a nice guy, but one threatens my family, and all heck breaks loose, my wife/GF will dial 911 while I'm trying to by time for the police to arrive, and they had better get their butts there quick, or people are going to get hurt bad... Very bad..
My wife and kids I draw a very hard line.. I won't run over bikes, I will run over the dam owner's. And the one's I don't run over I will shoot.. Period

Well I'm not defending the officer, but not often do you see a scooter designed for 25 or 30 mph, doing nearly double that speed, and exceeding the posted speed limit for cars, trucks and motorcycles... Can't blame him for being curious really..
Well it's all over and water under the bridge now...
