Your spouse will get everything after the divorce, gloat boy.
More words of misery from ADG.

Spreading the wealth?

[deal king]I just remembered I needed to update this thread. . .

I sold the $200 Honda accord. . .

for $1750!!

Now Im working on getting my house ready to sell, and so far have been able to use that money on the house = 0 out of pocket so far :D

One other recent great deal - i took the 750 engine that came in my 750ss (that ducpainter finished off) and traded that + $100 for a hydraulic lift.  It was a little small for a bike though, so I got a sheet of 4x8x3/16 plate and made myself a nice little deck that bolts onto the lift.  I can put a bike on it, on front and rear stands, and put it at any height I want.

I can put the crank cover on a ducati at my eye level, which is more than 6' off the ground.

Working on bikes now = teh awesome!

I should post a pic, huh?[/deal king]

I gots video!!!

Sorry for the IZ quality. . . my camera's a camera, not a video recorder thing-a-ma-jig

In addition to that, the Deal King scooped up another great score just this past sunday :D

One of the local racers smashed his 800ss after building it all winter.  It was his first weekend out on it and a kid on a SUMO took him out after doing something stupid.

I happened to have a spare frame, so I offered it to him for $100 cause I felt bad for him.  I didn't need it anyway.

So he bought it, and he also gave me a set of lightly used Bridgestone slicks! [moto]

Those'll get me though a couple trackdays (as long as it's not going to rain)

Yay Karma!

Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
