Hey Krausebag, how's it going with you? I'm heading to New York next


week and was wondering if there were photos (possibly in the harbor


archives) of your father's fireboat welcome in New York Harbor? You


know, the one he received after crossing the Atlantic in a dingy. It


would be very rewarding to see the photos and historical account.


What was the date of his arrival?




Krausebag has fallen uncharacteristically mute. Odd, isn't it, how


Google Search has effectively ended Krausebag's pitiful, fabricated life.






He was here earlier today. Maybe he's out on his boat honing his nav skills.




===




Probably so now that he's recently discovered that he owns a boat and


actually has electronic navigation software for it. I can undertand


his reticence however, what with the Feds digging around looking for


property they can seize. What a pitiful life our hero leads.




You got proof of that, or are you just idly smearing?


You and "Hank" are sure interested in Krause.


Big mistake for Krause to take "Hank" out of the "Bozo Bin".


But Krause is sure coming out on top.


We'll see how long it lasts.




Wayne is binned and hank is on the cusp. They obviously prefer the way


rec.boats was.




Harry, you keep advertising your filters. Why is that?






You are neither in charge here nor the inquisitor, eh?




And, I'll admit to bragging about my filters too. They're K&N's that've been on the Guzzi for about


20 years now. Wash them every few months, add a little 'cherry juice' and they're good to go for


another year.




What kind of air filters do you use on that Ducati? ;)






The same brand, K&N.


K&N is snake oil. No real benefit, lets more junk in. May not matter if the motor isn't real. :-)


K+N makes a motocross filter that you could literally pour sugar
through... it is basically a sieve. We don't use K+N anything in our
sport, not for more than two rides or so

There are several good filter systems, cleaners, and oil out there but
we use "No Toil". It's non toxic, biodegradable, you take a teaspoon or
so of poweder in the sink with some warm water and you got a clean
filter. There is no nasty petrolium smell either, if you have a lot of
filters in the rotation like we do, a quarter cup of No Toil cleaner in
the family washer will do just fine and rinses out completely leaving no
smell or residue. You use the No Toil filter oil too, again non toxic,
biodegradable, etc... The only tradeoff I can see with the stuff is the
filter oil can not be cleaned with degreaser, or soap, etc.. You need to
use the No Toil powder to clean it out of your filters...

All in all, I wouldn't use anything else. I will say however, do not buy
the NoToil pre oiled filters, they just don't hold up. We use
exclusively TwinAir filters as they are strong and do the best, are the
standard in our sport.

Either way, I have been watching this thread but have been busy, didn't
know if I was gonna' get to this before the thread died but that's my
two cents on motorcycle filters and oil... Remember, our sport puts as
much dirt and **** to a filter system than probably any other sport on
earth.... and to this day we have never... um, sorry, just can't bring
myself to finish that sentence so close to a new season Think about it
though...
