I don't know anything about DBZ but when I saw it I thought it looked really cool and when I showed her she liked it a lot so I got it. She used to watch DBZ a lot apparently.DemonDuck wrote:Love the dragon ball z knob!

Fork seals and wipers for the Nighthawk 750. I could post a picture but they are like, you know, round rubber rings. Oh and 10 wt fork oil. I got the seat and fender from that guy out by Lake Lavon for a killer price. So I guess some lower bars and eventually some new tyres and it will be back in service. I'm thinking of taking it to the 1.3 in the cruiser class.

Re: Most recent purchase thread!
DBZ is quite possibly the worst and best cartoon of all time. My room mates and I got hooked on it for a few years and while we couldn't stop watching it, we couldn't figure out why we were watching it. Nothing ever happened, a single fight between two guys would last 2 or 3 weeks! It was ridiculous and yet captivating at the same time.Stardog wrote:I don't know anything about DBZ but when I saw it I thought it looked really cool and when I showed her she liked it a lot so I got it.

Probably had a lot to do with when the drugs were kicking in, and when you were coming down.

I was in the same exact boat. Even the animation wasn't that great but for some reason I was hooked for a good while.

Re: Most recent purchase thread!
Upgraded my Elio reservation to the $1,000 level to get my official spot in line. I meant to, and should have done that 6 months ago but oh well.
And to the skeptics, I work in manufacturing and if I lose my $1,000 then I lost it on the dream that America can still innovate and build things. I've lost more on less.

Re: Most recent purchase thread!
You would think, but no. They do get a slightly humid feeling earlier on than cotton socks but there is no associated skin irritation (my skin is really shitty) and after 14 hours in them inside of work boots they feel almost completely dry to the touch.
Also one of the reviews from a US serviceman said that he bought 20-24 pair in 2004 and has used only these socks for 12 years in everything from Iraqi summers and Pennsylvania winters comfortably and has 6 pair left. Everyone says that they last a long long time so I should be good for a while.

Just curious, but why not a wool sock. You can get them Ina lighter one. I've always heard those are the way to go. Summer and winter
