[QUOTE="LeadHead, post: 15690, member: 367"] Yup. I can tell by your avatar that you love America, and I can already narrow that down on your party. :smirk: Plenty of more to come. :P Very true! Awesome! If you are ever in my area, we have to have a ride/shooting/fishing/etc day. All that in one day would just be overwhelming in happiness! :ride: Ron...I don't wanna talk about it. :cry: Uhhh, I think it was...2 months or so? Story time! I took apart my wheels because I had a great idea to get them powdercoated and I had about $80 at this time. I find out that 10 or 11 of my spokes were seized and there was no return. 1 or 2 weeks later I ended up cutting them off and laying out $130 for a whole new set of rear spokes, I'm now in debt with my Dad. I get the front and rear wheels put together and try to true the front wheel and I couldn't get it for nothing. Then the wheels sat there for a few weeks as I endlessly tried to get the front wheel trued. So I ended up taking it in to the over-priced Honda dealer (another strike) to get them both trued, didn't even try the rear. I added my debt by $100 for the shop to true my rear wheel and to tell me that my front was bent and couldn't be trued. Another few weeks later I buy a whole new front wheel with a tire used for around $170 because I didn't want to deal with anymore truing and :blah:. I got that on a Friday night and got the tires mounted at around 2am and the next day I rode off into the sunset and rode happily ever after...with somewhere around $300 in debt. :P I. Hate. Spokes.
