Hi Blaine.  See there's been nothing added to the public thread here in about a day.  So assuming Neal must have answered you in PM.  Since any definition for what is or what is not acceptable actually do guide us all was wondering if you'd mind sharing what he said?

Todays project will be the new forward controls...Man do they look nice.  I have a few things to do before getting started....work out, take my dog to the dog park...he's a big boy that needs lots of running. I hope to have pics up by tonight if everything goes right. My wheels and the new DNA brakester are on order. I am super pumped about that. The brakester will really make things look right for me. No right side brakes so all you will see is the spokes.

Well....what the heck I found this THREAD actually.........Hey everyone!!!!!!!! 

I for one want to thank you for posting your build and modfiying your FXR to a "springer" FXR......I wish this could have been left in the FXR Section myself......it's soooooooooooooo farrrrrrrrrrrrr away......buttttttttttttttt perhaps we can get this THREAD back on track.....

Maybe we can get some agreement when it's all finished to simply create a new THREAD over at the FXR SECTION under the heading of let's say for example.....

1982-1994 FXR MODIFICATIONS WHICH MAY BE OF INTEREST TO CVO FXR OWNERS

Which we can then have a great little index of some wonderful modfications.....which should wrap around and answer the primary requirement of meeting the needs of us as FXR2, FXR3, and FXR4 owners.....

BUT regardless......I really appreciate each FXR Owner that joins us over at the FXR SECTION......because their investment is certainly equally exciting for me to learn about...... :2vrolijk_21:

Sigh......now I gots to go find Jeff's build......and see and read photos and discussion......now where is that "THREAD" at.....hmmmmmm    :nixweiss:

Well; to quote a great American, "I did not have sex with that wom...."    :oops:  Wrong "great American."  Let me try that again.


"Nuts."  What an unexpected surprise.  Not a chance in hell they'd just blow us off though.  They're our friends.  They've said they want us to talk to them.  So it's a certainty they'd be willing to talk back.  The guys just need some time.

They're busy.  That's all it is.  I completely understand.  Patience for good friends is like still waters.

Were you wagging that bone-e finger at us when saying that?  ;D..Next you can get the voice down; maybe Sean Hannity can teach it to ya  ;D

I agree Don, we need guidance and I'm sure it will be given in due time. Our friends will not desert us in time of need; we must continue to support them while they diligently and wholeheartedly think out their response as I'm sure they want it to be one which is beneficial for us all...So we will wait with the utmost of respect to their task ahead.

your next assignment - Clauswitz,  "On War"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_War

After that you really should read First to Fight by Krulak (the elder) great book of our history...required reading for all Marines by the Commandant.

I remember all the required reading.........the first two mentioned here were primary.  Had a Battalion Commander during my last tour in the ROK who required us to read "We were Soldiers Once, and Young."
Though they've been there as long as I can remember in some form/fashion or another, toward the end of my career there were many, many, many, many, many updates and changes to Army Field Manuals (FMs).  Seems passages from some of these works became more apparent and frequent with the new editions and completely rewritten manuals.
BTW, just noticed your avatar, Sean.  I think it is neat how titles differentiate between the Services.  In the Army, every rank is abbreviated to three uppercase characters.  And though there is no written guidance, per se, on the use of or directed use of indicators of impending promotion, it was customary to use the three letter abbreviation of one's current rank followed by the letter "P" in parentheses to indicate "Promotable."  For instance, in the Army, a Major selected for promotion to Lieutenant Colonel might list his rank as "MAJ(P) Cary."
Now........all that funky stuff they speak and write in the Navy is a complete mystery to me...........everything is an acronym.   :huepfenlol2:

Sun Tzu had a habit of stating the obvious and making it sound profound.  Lessons there for sure though.  Certainly can't dismiss the little bastard.  He's on the shelf here at my left hand.  Next to Frederick the Great, Xenophon, Mahan, Clausewitz and a few others.  Lessons there as they speak to you.  Long dead and they still respond.  Can ask them a question and be informed as quickly as grabbing the binding and turning the page.
