    Welcome to the IHoP

    Yeah, started up fine and sounded good, but who knows...those SOHC fours seem to be bulletproof but I wouldn't trust it if it's sat outside for that long. I don't feel like doing a total gasket replacement just yet

    So offer $800. It's a buyer's market right now. My first offer was $1000 I have a feeling Kent was right and I won't be finding something until December or so...

    Well, I'm still scootless. With 4.5k on the clock, frame rust scares me...along with faded instrument dials and a tach that won't go back to zero. Not to mention a seat off of a K model, on an F frame...why change seats if there's really that little mileage on it? Eh...too many questions, not enough answers...maybe for $800 I could justify taking everything apart and coating what needs to be coated, but I'm not paying $1400 for something that's sat outside since Gorbachev.

    Oooh, I like Definitely looks like that room could use some treatment though.
  5. I wasn't referring to any one specific model from Crown...they may have a stinker or two in their product lineup, but their higher-end stuff is quite nice

    You're in a college town, a large percentage of the population becomes strippers on Friday or Saturday night given enough alcohol...and a lot of times without

    Final accounting test at 5:45... blah
  9. I wouldn't phrase it like that, besides, low efficiency by itself is not a bad thing Crown & QSC already do
  10. It's alright for what it is.

    craigshelper.com is your friend. *just starting to try and catch up I found something since I posted that, but thanks - I'll be looking for parts in the coming months as the previous owner made some modifications that I want to bring back to stock Pictures this weekend

    For a new-ish bike, I like those Looks a lot like a Triumph Speed Triple to me, I bet the parts cost is a whole lot more attractive though

    How obnoxious do you need? I can try
  21. Yes. I would probably run sealed, in all honesty...very deep extension, and usable for music as well

    wanting film camera

    If it's 35mm we're talking about... For ease of finding good lenses, it really comes down to either the Nikon F-mount stuff or Canon. Both had a wide selection of good prime lenses, and I'd really recommend a 50mm prime lens for anyone starting out. Not only are they usually a lot "faster" than the short-zoom kit lenses (both have very good f/1.4's, heck of a lot faster than a standard medium zoom), having one focal length reduces your mental workload starting out and reduces the urge to get fancy with extreme wide angles or telephotos that compress the DOF. I had a Canon A-1 starting out, worked great. Although I liked the Contax I had more, I could never afford more than one Zeiss lens - with the Canon, you can buy a whole drawer full of lenses and not break the bank
