Some 250R pics before I got her dirty

**Mike Fort Laud** · 06-13-2005, 01:05 AM

I hate to get it dirty. Oh yea before somebody busts my balls about those tires.. I ALWAYS run the stock Dunlop KT 576 & KT 577 tires. I just bought these on eBay for the rims............Two pictures are in my yard and and that is the Everglades in the backdrop of the other.

Nice looking trike! But DANG! That is the most worn out front tire I've ever seen on a three wheeler! (Your excuse was for the back tires... e'splain the front one!)

Looks awesome!!!! I hated getting mine dirty the first time too, but I bought it to ride, and ride she does...

**Mike Fort Laud** · 06-13-2005, 10:43 AM

OK once again all you genius readers. Hey badpig121, Where exactaly in my post did I say I just bought the back tires on eBay???????? It looks to me that I said I bought the tires just for the rims. I bent my original front rim, and bought these as a package of all 3. I am waiting on my brand new Dunlops from eBay. I just love it how people open their mouth before they open their eyes. READ..it's easy left to right, top to bottom.

Hey mike, where are the other two pics from? the ones not in your yard?

Just kidding man! couldn't resist!

Speaking of those two pics, is that what they call "saw grass" in the everglades?

Nice bike! to bad the owner is such a jerk!

**AirManCam** · 06-13-2005, 06:21 PM

Nice R man!

**badpig121** · 06-13-2005, 09:07 PM

By the look of AirManCam's avatar, you must have bought your tires (I'm sorry, RIMS!) from him! Like I said... Nice R.

You know Barry Mann, your right, I am editing this post myself because why should I let that smart ass PIG bother me. What pisses me off about this post and most other posts on this board is that nobody actually reads before they comment. I bent my front rim and bought a bunch of front rims and some rears on ebay. I now have 4 front rims and 6 rears. That is the only front rim that had a tire. So I put it on so I can roll the bike around. It is all dry rotted and leaks air. I won't ride on it. I have the best front and the 2 best rears of them all set aside. I also bought brand new tires that are on the way. That being the reason that I have the bike all cleaned up. But I just figured out how to resize some pics and wanted to show off my bike. Now in the post I said i just bought the rims so don't bust my balls, then everybody has to remind me about the tires. I KNOW. I just get so aggravated reading some of these posts that I had to vent. Especially after I read the other post by smart ass PIG BOY..........I wish everybody could read the P.M.. That is where my comments belong.

this is the first time i have seen someone get upset about someone pointing out there bald tire, calm down!

**badpig121** · 06-14-2005, 02:40 AM

I only got the privelage of reading the edited post you put up. All I can say is, Dude, you need to relax some. The reason I have trikes to go ride on is so I can vent my frustrations from work and the world, rip some trails or dunes, and RELAX. That is my medium to clear my head. I'm sure 99% of people who ride do the same. I don't know anybody off the top of my head who get's paid to ride a trike.

My point is we're all out there to have fun. Why should this website be any different? We are here to have fun. It gets us by for the period of time between rides. If I make a joke, it is in good humor. I mean you no malice or spite. Let's face it: I don't know you. You don't know me. I have no reason to sit back and bust someones babymakers over the anything, let alone a simple joke over some tires!

Now I haven't recieved a P.M. as of right now, but judging from the colour of your edited post, it probably isn't something you want me to forward to your mother.

Remember this: We are here with the intent to share information, maybe trade or sell some parts, and above all, have fun by sharing our experiences, rides, places to have fun, and pictures of the pride and joy trikes we bust our nads in the name of fun to put together. Let's not get riled up.

I told you twice and I'll tell you a third time just to make sure you hear me: Nice trike. I like to see it when someone puts forth the effort to restore and modify to their own personal liking any peice of history. An old military jeep, a 70's Maico, a 56 Chevy Bel Air, or a sweet 85 250r: They are all a labor of our passion. Anyone who puts forth the effort deserves the credit. You've now recieved the credit three times from me, personally, and I don't think you heard that the first times around.

P.S.
You should note that badpig is a shot at myself. Yeah, I'm a Cop. I get called every name in the book by everybody. I don't take it to heart; It's part of the job. I just keep life in the right perspective.

**Mike Fort Laud** · 06-14-2005, 10:57 AM

Hey bro, All is cool.......Just your "excuse" remark, and your "(I'm sorry, RIMS!)" remark rubbed me a little wrong. And on top of it all I split my knee open and was home in pain yesterday and was having an overall bad day and did not feel like putting up with anything from anybody. After my other post I had a change in heart and deceided it would be best if I just deleated that post. And i figured I had no reason to send any kind of nasty PM to you either..........Later...Mike
