Re: Re: Post a pic of your latest purchase

I have that Carb in a box in my shop what are you using it on?

I have a pair for my CX500, along with the exhaust and some minor headwork it makes a big difference to the performance of the CX

Cheers

I got this fireplace insert for my basement home office. I have some sanding and painting to do to it before it gets installed, but for 250 it is a sweet find.

Very nice find. I have an insert (with blower) in my living room and it heats the whole house.

Me too but it only helps the heat as our house is 2 storey. I need another in the basement and one on the second floor and i'd be set.

Some Pirelli Angel sport touring tires for the spring road trip. They have these bizarre angel designs that supposedly become demons as the tire wears. If that isn't the stupidest marketing gimmick I've ever seen...!

But they get rave reviews, so I'm excited to give them a try.

 

[pr design]

So does that mean the tires need to be replaced when the demons appear?

 

[Ringo]

No, they say they 'appear' after about 600 miles. I think the halo and eyes (?) just wear away...

I had Pirelli Diablos on my Hayabusa. Most confidence inspiring tires I have ever owned.

Good to hear! I can't find any negative reviews on these. I'm really looking forward to getting more than a couple thousand out of the rear.

Looks like a great find. Dont know how much you plan to use it or rely on it but there are a lot of stoves being retrofitted with secondary air combustion. Makes them more efficient (more heat, burn less wood, makes for a lot less work) google secondary air combustion retrofit.

I had a set of the angels on a ducati 748, After about 1500 miles the wngel hadn't fully worn away and within a day or 2 I had the wear to within 1/4inch of the edge. Great grip on wet or dry and I never had a slip even when I was pushing them fairly hard. I am actually going to get another set when I get tires for the yamaha I am building.

My Monster came with Angels. I wish I could put them on my Nighthawk, the tires that came with it don't have anywhere near the wet traction the Angels do. IIRC they're Bridgestones.

Bridgestone's on Nighthawk?
Seems normal, Italian bike, Italian tyres, Japanese bike, Japanese tyres
I guess there are people who complained about the Demon name so Pirelli decided to mess with them by calling it 'Angel'? ;D
In my experience, the 'demon' is way better than Bridgestone (but, you pay for it, they do wear out pretty quick)

Just keeps getting better! Thanks for sharing!

Kinda random, but I got an armorer's wrench (that has a bottle opener on it)

And I got a gpz550 rear wheel for my current abomination...

This seems like an unwise combination of tools.

Right? Everything has a bottle opener on it.

Hey you know how self proclaimed gun queens are... "the right tool or no tool at all!" Im sort of a fan of using a claw hammer or corner of a vice myself
