They said the same thing happened in the 90's when Clinton was first elected. I was too young and preoccupied to care about politics at the time, so I don't remember, but nobody ever contests it when its said.
Ya know what sux? I am always the one that talks **** about people getting caught up in the paranoia of the moment! and yet here I am, right in the middle of it! When I get ****ed off about something, anything, I dive in head first! Damn the consequences!!!

my friend has his set up like that and its not bad. but he modified a cheep chinese shifter and it looks like crap. if i could get a fancy looking short shifter with the right splines (maybe like a sunline xr50r shifter), i might just be in business!
Yeah. Its shifts really fast. I can zip thru the gears and its cool with the 11/37 gears. Just peg the gas and fan the clutch. Sometimes you can't even hear me shift.

I only use the clutch in 1st gear anyway, don't matter how it is connected to the engine!

Well, if you did, you're the first one I've seen to man up about it!

I actually considered selling some guns last fall, since everybody was bidding the price up. Nothing special, just some extra old sportsterized hunting rilfes.

I don't know, it came with the quad. Sorta reminds me of the shifter from my old 750-4 honda. Could be shorter though.

86qscamo:

rod ends - P/N:60645K421
allthread - P/N:91187A150

the rod was 12", but you can get away with 3" if you want, but it would cost more from there since it only comes in 5 paks and its not as high of a grade either...
