I knew you'd come through!  Any leads on dealers that carry Kawi Green?  I wonder if I should have a central air source?  I could run the air through a manifold, should be enough space behind the battery compartment.

I reckon.  Does anyone else carry a small bag of marbles for tailgaters :yikes:

Word of caution to OP, should you decide to add sound deadoning material to your neighbors pipes I would suggest not saying anything to anyone, most certainly not here ;)  Well, OK, let US know, really makes for some entertaining reading and Winter is just 'round the corner for some ;D

I carry eggs.  One in each pocket.

Awe, heck, this thread aint going anywhere anyway--I get $10 a pop on the street, looking to supplement my retirement ;)
I'm thinking about mounting up some paintball guns, two in the trunk facing rearward, one in each bag, leaft and right, and 2 on the front fender.  Freeze them paintballs and wreck havoc on all them murderous cagers.  What color should I use?

I heard that all the paintball companies changed the formulation of the paintballs so they would just crumble if frozen.

Of course, that doesn't stop you from using these: http://www.pepperball.com/faq.html

So, to the OP, how did thigs work out?  I'm sure hoping he understood your concerns. 

Yep, foamed pipes was an epic one for sure, lotsa emotional responses on that one.

That would not be a wise idea in this state.  Better to let them pass or speed up and disappear.

This. Except for cops. If they tailgate longer than it takes to read a plate, I shake my head, slow down, move over, and wave them by.
 Noisey neighbors bike, I always talk to them about it. Ask him if he has a tiny pecker or something.

I guess this is yet ANOTHER case of the OP asking a question and getting TONS of replies, only to never post again about said subject.

Why, if I had a nickle for everytime this happened, I'd have enough for a nice lunch, maybe.    ;)

Maybe the OP took our advice and got his ass kicked for his trouble?

Sure, some of them were BS, just guys being guys. What was wrong with the first part of the VERY first reply that you got?

Don, we by nature are a bunch of smart asses, but the concern is genuine.  How did things work out?
