jared the welder,etc

so i realized today that my nickname for jared was too limiting, hes more than a welder...therefore as of today his new name "jared the welder,etc..." at first i was thinking of calling him "baby jesus..." but ol' dirty bastard already claimed that one...what was he smoking, oh yeah, nevermind...anyways, back to jared the welder, etc..., he let me use a plasma cutter today and also showed me a bunch of other cool tools that i've never seen in person, just on t.v, going to waste on OCCif you don't know what this machine is, you can ask jared the welder,etc he'll tell you and make you feel stupid for not knowing bradys butt, i mean another shot of that one machine

this is my plasma cutting skills, i have the steady hand of a smoker...i made a heart for my wife (which i forgot to bring home)...and then thought i'd try some lettering...shoulda make it say "i heart TWFMco."


wouldn't it be nice

here we go again, again, again...

i do have a picture of it broke down, but i was too pissed to think of using the flash...and its not worth taking the time to load it to the computer...it broke down after riding it for about 3 hours, totally thought i was good to go, then a few miles from home and after a fresh gas up, @#%$@^^%$...couple days later i thought i had it fixed, venting issue, then it died just as i was leaving my neighborhood, at least i could walk it home and not have to get the truck...but that still wasn't enough to keep me from throwing my helmet at it, denting the tank twice and cracking my helmet, and kicking some crap in the garage...it was like my old hockey temper skateboarding days...so i did some figuring real quick and found i have, AT LEAST, $3,625 into it...if someone were to actually offer me that for this POS, it would be theirs... ...i'm thinking of repainting my tank to look like a lemon...

alternator is in

got to this abour 7pm yesterday...went pretty quick (that is nothing happen that made me throw a hissy fit)...had to take of exhaust, the foot pegs and it seemslike another thing or two, in order to get to the alternator...anyways, it kicked over like 4th try, i remembered to turn the gas on with the 2 or 3rd kick and even pulled the choke...rode down the rode and back and she stayed on...(sure was dark though, gotta get my headlight pointed at the ground more)...battery wasn't even on the charger for the last few days...so hopefully that means i'm good...gonna give it a test ride after work today with skater jay and bradlito
if my bike behaves over the next little while, i'd really like to do a ride somewheres, camp a night or something...just go out and be dudes

has this guy even read the bible?

44 But I say to you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be like your Father in heaven, since he causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. matthew 5

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows GodWhoever does not love does not know God, for God is love1 john 4:7-8

thumbs up and most of brad hall






cheese





here we go again; again!

not only are my finger gestures evolving for the better, so is my attitude towards the break downs...well i still pitch a major fit and use words not found in the bible...but this time it only lasted for a few hours and not a few days...my wife even agreed that i am getting over it quicker :)...bradys pep talk really helped me get perspective (see comments of previous post)...anyways, my bike died on the way to motomonday, it was going to be my first time on this bike, my brothers first time on a bike and brad halls first one on a bike...and then my bike had to go and ruin things...i think it might be andy pangeas fault...he renamed the bike harpers heartbreaker and so far thats about all shes done...before that it was called "the cardinal" a tribute to my home state of virginia...but that name doesn't really fit with my pretty new tank and the SLC painted on it, another gift from andy...the heartbreaker is going to take on a new meaning soon, breaking hearts of those who don't have a bike with craftmanship from pangea speed and two wheeled freedom machice co. !!!!!! new alternator ordered 20 mins ago, look for us on the streets (and elsewhere) soon, and prepare yer heart

here we go again!

went to pick it up today and it died again...at least i somewhat censored my bird this time...i'm starting to think that chopping up old bikes is not all its cracked up to be...if you're not a mechanic or rich, or if you have other resposibilities other than you bike, then i'd say buy one already done or get a sportster and throw some bolt on stuff on an call it good...another thing is never give your bike a deadline/due date...this bike has seriously had like 15...this bike has me so pissed that my only options are to stick it out untill she is running like a champ or get her running good enough for me to ghost ride her off a cliff...i'm leaning more toward the first option, because for those 20 minutes she was running AMAZING!, thanks to Brady at TwoWheeledFreedomMachineCo.
