My Triumph Sprint ST 1050 is known to easily pass 200k miles, makes 120HP without a turbo, and only really needs oil every 7500 miles. Consumables on the rest of the bike are different than for a car, but the engine and trans are pretty rock solid. Torque kicks up at 60 ft-lbs at 2k rpm and climbs to 70 ft-lbs by 3500…

Yeah, but Bezos could turn a profit when needed (during the first dot com bust) to bring in more funding. Without the ability to scale down growth and ramp up profits Amazon would have gone under too. Uber doesn’t appear to have that capability in the near term... you know... profitability.

Seriously! There’s nothing like learning these bikes and how to modify them to really become proficient with engines, suspension, and anything current that doesn’t suck as much as the original components. I’ve restored or customized around 30 old Hondas now and just love working on them.

I lived in Normal from 6th through 12th grade. Before that, I lived in Abu Dhabi, where Garfield always sent Nermal. Now I live in San Francisco, where we are apparently ending ISIS.

“Free parking” is just how they’re dressing up the fact that they can’t figure out how to register when motorcycles have gone through the gates so that they can lower the arms.
