Oct. 3rd I called American Sport Bike for wheel bearings and spoke with JoAnn, such a nice Lady. We spoke about a host of stuff, it's funny how you get sidetracked so easily, and they do have a lot of have-to-have item's ya think.........yup!!! Anyway She was tossing the idea of a quiz on obscure facts about Buell's that BWB's could ring in and give their answers to, also mebe motorcycles in general. Sounds like a kick, well if anyone else with some pull about the BWB forum would be interested in such a section, all that's needed is a call to Her. Just thought I'd pas it along. A sample for bikes in general might be something like this: Why do Honda singles and many twins have one copper headbolt washer?..........oil gally.. simple, but how many people know? Mebe like what kind of fast cars does Eric Buell own?, could be anything bike related or? internal combustion powered related, who knows. By the way, for a while our shop in Redlands California was giving decal kits to those that could answer the "Honda" question, untill the answer was commonly known th the regulars, still on ocasion we pull that one out on a new customer, it all makes for a friendly atmosphere at our store, which by the way is right next to Floyd's HD sales in Redlands for those framillier with So Cal enthusiests. Well it's out there now, what do you think? | ||

Very well Mr Slicker, for 1000 flat washers, if your 3/4" spanner goes missing what size metric one can you use in it's place & is there a state law preventing you from doing so? Your time starts ...now! | ||

Well McGiver.. There's a problem. Mr. Grumpy was not clear in his position. Your question was correct: what is a 19 mm? However, Mr. Grumpy threw in the state law thing. and you can not state the answer that "there are no state laws preventing it" in a form of a question. So Mr. Grumpy screwed up. The 1000 flat washers are yours and please pick another category. (I wonder what Final Jeopardy will be) (Message edited by doerman on October 05, 2008) | ||

Hmm, what letter is most commonly omitted in misspelling the name Joanne? Seriously though, we've tossed the idea around a bit. It would be fun, but at this point, we can't do it. Neither Al nor I seem to be able to peruse the board as much as we'd like. Al contributes knowledge and expertise when he can, and adding something to his already full plate may not be a good idea... But it looks like you guys are on a roll with this...  Please do continue! Joanne PS, Mr. Grumpy, it was 98 degrees in the warehouse yesterday. I can't wait for winter! | ||
| Spdkls |
24 hours and no answer!! is it that hard or does nobody care  | ||
| Mr_grumpy |
Clue; read the thread title. |
