Are you kidding? Look on eBay. Leprechauns aside, people love to make old Triumphs into choppers. It's a drat shame, too, because those old Tigers and Trophys are beautiful bikes.

I don't know if you guys are all keenly aware of this these days, but historically there's been a teeny bit of tension between the Irish and the English. So, painting Irish motifs all over an English bike might be seen by some as a bit, uh, cheeky.

Am I an awful rear end in a top hat of a person to have laughed at this thinking the MS is why the photos are all sideways?

I don't know for sure, but probably between 8 and 9 for registration. The details are at ccsportscarclub.org. I'll look into it further if my car is fixed by then (overheating due to malfunctioning radiator fan, shop said the unit itself is fine and is forwarding me to another shop to look for faulty relays and poo poo). Luckily, I've caught the overheating before it got too bad, and compression tests are still within spec. :sigh:

Yeah, it'll hold up for a couple of winters, then there won't be enough steel left to hold up anything.

There is no frame, no mototrcycle that comes with the title. Title only. Clear/Clean texas title, I paid $1,800 for this title 4 months ago. You can use this to build your very own stunt bike or drage bike. If you have a frame and need good numbers to register your bike and get it on the road, this is exatcly what you need to do that.

A lease takeover deal on a luxury SUV? How bad can this be?

Let's see...

:haw:

High payment? Check! $741 a month.

Long term still remaining? Check! 18 months.

Mileage limit almost reached? Check! 1,274 miles left on the lease. Past that and it's .20 cents a mile.

Yeah.. I bet they'll be really sad to rid of this wonderful lease.

The leasebusters.com website is full to the brim of lovely leases just like that, but you get the added bonus of seeing how ridiculous the buyout payment is (and downpayment if any).

I periodically skim it if I need a chuckle and pat myself on the back for not being too much of an idiot.

Ahhh, CC sports car club. I went to Rantoul once a couple of years ago, had a good time. I also ran the Camaro at Parkland a few years ago and got kicked off the course for doing donuts. The safety steward(and half the guys there) are complete assholes if you don't take it super-super-seriously, though I did deserve to get kicked off for that one. If you happened to make it out there this year, I was the guy sliding sideways around the course in the silver E55.

Lived there for 18 years in East Urbana. If you ever see a green 1995 Mustang GT with rectangular Camaro exhaust tips(don't ask), that's my dad. Where in CU do you live?

Haha, "posh" is the last word I'd use to describe this club. It's more like a group of people with every car imaginable(Miatas to Porsches, to Mustangs, to complete junk) getting together and running the course. Some people take it way too seriously though. What I did? I spun out on a turn, and rather than stop and back up I decided to spin it the rest of the way around and continue on my way, so I did 1 donut. I have it on video if you'd like to see my heinous crime. This was also during "fun runs" at the end, and I was definitely having fun. Now I've learned that as long as the car doesn't go completely around under power I'm not going to get flagged, so I do a bit of power-on oversteer in my 4500 pound car and have a blast! The crowd loves it too.
