So the other day my brother bought a project motorcycle that only has the frame, handle bars, wheels, and engine... nothing else. I went with him to go pick it up and the guy he was buying it from had a 2000 Ducati 999 in his garage all busted up. As my brother was paying him i asked him about the Ducati and he said he hasn't rode it in a while and he tried several times to get it started and he wasn't succesful. I walked up to it and scoped it out and its a pretty sexy bike. As i was looking at it the dude tapped on my shoulder and i turned around he handed me the title and says "its yours, put it on the trailer."
I got a FREE '00 DUCATI 999 how bad ass is that? i got it home, cleaned the airfilter, checked the oil, checked the spark plug, put some gas in it, swapped out the battery and if ****ing STARTED! i still can't believe it! the front is all busted up so i need a new headlight and all that(ferrings if thats what you call them). Gonna try to get my motorcycle license this week and make some money to make my baby look clean! Also its time to finally buy a bluetooth a2dp headset so i can listen to music and talk to people while riding this BEAST! So if you see a black flash, thats me flying by you on the highway!! and yes, those will be my guts all over the street.
What you guys think? Yall jealous or what??? hahaha
i'm actually considering trading it in for a 600rr or r6 because its WAY too powerful for me.
also i had the vin# ran through a friend at the DPS (or DMV in other states) and the title came out clear with no previous wrecks on record and its legit (not stolen)... so i basicly just got an $8,000 present!
Uhh, a running 2000 Ducati 999, FOR FREE ???
Your title is completly true, my jealousy can't be described with words
This is THE BEST street-racer (in my opinion, I don't like hayabusa) ever..
But it's not for beginners, please be carefull, it's a beast, it Will chew you up and spit you out if you're not carefull.
Trading it in for a lighter bike is recomended, but not cool B)
Anyhow, have fun you lucky [email protected]
Yah this thing is really strong. I used to ride dirtbikes during highschool (was sponsored by red bull and a local motorsport company) but street bikes are something else! theres a bunch of **** i need to do to it; brakes, wheels, new chain and sprockets, fuel lines, and the front fairing. Its been raining here for the past 3 days so haven't enjoyed it yet.
I think i will trade it in because as i said in my first post, its a monster and i will definately kill myself on this thing.
what doesnt kill you can only make you stronger, or paralyzed
Did you ask....

Perhaps you need to ask the guy that gave it to you for free, how he got the front all busted.......correct me if I am wrong, he dumped his demons on you...
Have you told your mum yet ?
If I were you, I would be VERY careful
Dont trade a Ducati for a rice-rocket... are you insane???
If you think a Ducati is too powerful for you.. you obviously never riden much or know very much about bikes... any bike can kill you if you chose to ride like a moron... a bike being too powerful is unheard of unless you are taking about a Busa or turbo-charged bikes..
Take your $8000 gift and enjoy it.. dont ever trade that in for a Jap bike. Would you trade a BMW for a Honda?
Congrats on your find though.. you are one very lucky guy!
Don't get caught up in the Jap vs. Itl battle, just look at Moto-GP and World Superbike and see who has been playing catchup with who, for the last 4yrs +
Trade it for the Gixxer or the Honda CBR600, you'l be better off. Cheaper in the pocket to fix and maintain. Besides if you are not use to twin torque, it can be habit forming ..
This is just a personal rant, I have been going through hell lately and was wondering if anyone else out there could relate in some way.
Well, I don't know what to say about this month. Hell, even this year so far. I've got soo many things going wrong that I cant even keep track of it.
In short bad things keep happening and I don't know why.
In detail I haven't been working at Arabian since close to New Years because they run off the slow tourisim. And I hardly make enough at the cafe to pay my bills and have any bit of a social life. I've been broke as hell and that's never easy, but i've managed until lately. Just at the beginning of this month I started having a bit of a medical problem, though not life threatening (if infected it could be) it is debilitating, I can't sit for long periods of time, and I can't do much of anything at all really. The fact that I have had to lay here and not to anything is bad enough on its own. and to top it off I don't have any health insurance either. I have bounced around to 3 hospital ERs, 2 Walk in clinics, and even the Health Department itself. And most of them were of no help at all except making me more and more broke. They just kept telling me to go see someone else who wont see me, or wanted upwards of 3 or 4 thousand dollars in advance JUST to be seen.
On top of all that a bunch of little things keep happening that is really pissing me off, my car is dead and I don't know what is wrong with it yet (as I cant do anything.) My phone works only when it feels like it and my voicemail is messed up. my kitchen caught fire. and my dog ate something and isn't feeling the greatest either. The hospitals refuse to help me, and the specialist that I need refuses to even talk to me without insurance, which IF and only IF I get approved for medicaid I will be able to get anything done at all because regular insurance won't do a thing about it for a year to see a specialist.
On top of any of that I haven't seen any of my friends, or even my girlfriend in weeks. Needless to say this has been very very depressing and aggravating because I see no end to all of this madness. And I want to apologize in advance to anyone if I seem short tempered, snippy, or even anti social.
All in all this has been the worst month I think I have ever gone through.
Dude. Keep your chin up. I could quote endless aphorisms and such ("Darkest before the storm", etc.). But the reality is that life is full of ups and downs, and after you get through this session, you'll be due for a good long string of "ups."
Keep well.
I can feeel your pain. 3 wrecked my motard december 2008 and broke 6 bones in my foot. I dealt with a limp for 6 months before I could walk normal again. I am still fighting with the hospital as to why they never billed my insurance and still owe them money.
I got in trouble slightly with the law and had to walk to work (with a limp) for a few months in between.
October at work, someone had filled a tank with gasoline instead of diesel and it blew up underneath me when I was welding. I literally got blown across the shop and suffered a compound fractured ulna on my left arm. I had a surgery to repair the fracture with a titanium plate. A few days later for some unknown reason that plate broke, requiring another surgery with a larger, stainless steel plate. That got a staph infection under it and recently had surgery number three to remove the plate and scrape infected tissue off my bone. This last surgery left me with a partial nonunion on my ulna, requiring BMP application during surgery and a bone growth generator.
And now I have a PICC line in my arm and have to go sit through IV antibiotic therapy for 7 more weeks.
To top it all off I got laid off the day before my last surgery, and the money I have saved might not be enough to carry me through the tough times, as L&I time loss compensation is about half of my regular paycheck.
I say let her rip, because now 2009 can only look up from here! Gotta keep a good attitude towards life, its much healthier for your mind. I wish you luck man
shadowline, kdg67f;
i feel for you man! hope things get better for both of you,
but hey **** happens, look on the bright side of life
Wow rough. Shadowline, thanks for all your input in the android thread, it's been helpful, I don't know where else on the site you float around, but take a small comfort in the fact that you make a difference. :-D Sorry to hear you're in the pits for the moment, best wishes to everything looking up in the (near?) future.
kdj67f, don't know your name, but sorry to hear that and I hope you both get better soon.
Dear Phone,
I feel privledged to know you... People call you many names like Kaiser, 8925, Tytn II, Vario III, and many others, but you will always be my Tilt. I remember when I first held you in my hand about 2 years ago.. You just "felt right" on my palm. You were very flashy and new... You had a QWERTY slide out keyboard that the buttons were big enough for my "man hands" (unlike your predicessor, my HP iPaq). But at the same time, with your keyboard sled in, you fit so nicely in my pocket.. (Screen facing into my thigh of course to protect your screen)
I remember our first vacation together to Florida from Wisconsin, where you told me right where to go using TomTom... Every turn, and you even managed to work where I had no cellular signal in the Mountians.. And I did not even need to buy you an external GPS "puck".. You did it all yourself without any outside help. When I was low on gasoline, you knew right where I needed to drive to.. When we stopped at motels that had free Wifi, you helped me check and reply to emails, and even IM people on yahoo and aim.. Then when we finally got to Florida, you were the first thing in my hand to call everyone to tell them the great news... You were there at Disney world to snap a quick picture of the family and the fun we had there... and even told me what the weather had in stock for me each day..
When I was at work you were with me... If I had to kill some time, or were just bored, we could play Ka-Glom or Call of Duty to pass the time.. And don't forget the time we played with your emulators.. There was more than once while waiting for appointments in offices and such that there was a crowd that formed aroudn us while we played Super Mario Bros 3 or some SNES game at full speed... You would never let me get bored.
If I needed some information, you surfed the internet like no other before.. I could choose whatever browser I was in the mood for, Skyfire, IE, and others... People would have their iPhones and such, but they had nothing on you... You has a 16gb storage card so you could keep up.. But your internal browser was compatible with orb so I could also access ANY of my 300 additional GB of movies, TV shows, music, and whatever else I had on my home computer... We used to love to play the game "Anything your phone can do, mine can do better". And when I just wanted to sit back and watch a movie, you screen would tilt up to the perfect angle for me to set down you down on the table and watch... And with my stereo bluetooth Motorola S9 earphones you came through loud and clear over distracting background noises!
There were rough times too... I flirted more than once with another... We can not forget when I set you aside and was seen out another.,.. But I always came home to you and learned my lesson... My son even fell in love with you and had to go otu and get one just like you as well... You may have aged some over time.. the shiney metallic layer on some of your front buttons may have flaked off... You may not be the newest and latest that is out there... But I know you are the best... You are the one that has stuck by me for these few years, and I hope many more. I know others have long since abandoned you for a Fuze or whatever the current flavor of the month is, but I will be with you until the end..... Or until I can afford a Touch Pro 2 (just kidding, sort of)... Thank you Tilt for all your hard work... I would not be the same without you..
You proud owner,
Todd in Wisconsin USA
This is so heart touching that I must say goodbye to my trusty 8525 and also follow the call of the Tilt. I want to feel this experience too.I need the GPS security and the friendship on the open road of Mr. T or Ozzy's voice leading me along the way. I must have the Tilt.
I think you will be happy with it.. and now with Tilts being "old" their prices are very affordable for most people.. But personally I prefer "C3PO" as my trusted voice on the road... He sounds rather refined and always calls me "Master".. But seriously.. For me, the Tilt is the best phone ever.. Since getting a tilt I have gotten : a HTC Touch Cruise, a LG Incite, and one or 2 others.. I always came back to the Tilt within a week or so... Sure, there is no g-sensor or FM radio.. but the g-sensor is cool, but nothing that is really that functional.. and with unlimited internet, you can stream most radio stations (even XM/Sirius stations if you have a subscription).. And the tilting screen.. Most people, even other Tilt users wil say it is sort of cool, but not that useful... But wait until you get used to it (assuming you take advantage of watching video on it)... hacong one that just lays flat on the screen will not be acceptable after that... I truely beleive it is the best phone ever...
ever since i got mine from a second hand store i have fallen in love with it. It is hands down the best phone I have ever used. I only paid 200 for it and once I learned how to put new roms on it my phone had a life that I had not know before. Battery life is the only issue I really have with this phone and even that I am willing to put up with just beause I love this phone that much. I recommend anyone who is serious about their phone get one of these it has made my experience the best I've ever had.

try an iPhone and you will **** your pants.
See, for me, the Kaiser was an enormous disappointment. It's an ever-so-slightly better phone (you know, making phone calls) than my Apache, but everything else about it was worse. The hype machine said Kaiser would solve all my problems, but in the end, it was pretty much the same, but slower (damn, you, AT&T).
Now that my Kaiser's given out on me (I'm running on a loaner Kaiser ATM), I'm VERY EAGERLY anticipating my Touch Pro 2 coming to replace it when AT&T finally gets their act together.

The iphone is fast but it lacks customization, and the UI isn't as informational, functional or productive as windows mobile 6.5. I don't want icons with side scrolling pages... but large text scrolling down..and being able to customize the UI within the OS. Windows might be lacking in speed and in feel but I think they got down the hard part down 1st in the mobile phone/device..once they mimic iphones speed and overall feel..its pretty much done for apple.

Wow... How did my love letter to my tilt become an iphone topic? *cough TRAITORS cough*
The original reason for this thread was to see if anyone else would share their fond memories of their Kaiser.... So, anyone want to share?
Dancing with the devil
My friends,
I have to say when I saw this topic I too thought things in Wisconsin must be direly dull. But I have to say, The Tilt was a revelation for me. For the past two years, I have used and loved my Tilt. I have enjoyed trying multiple renditions of WM6.X and have enjoyed bricking my phone on more than one occasion. But trouble's a-brewing. I got a new Itouch for my birthday and have to say I am enchanted with all that it can do. Now when you add in the thought of being able to make phone calls out of the same device; well, I'm strapping on a pair of Depends in preperation of ****ting my pants.
Though you all may deny it, I know that you have all gone to an AT&T store and played extensively with an Iphone. I have too. And now that I near the end of my contractual agreement with AT&T, I find that I am duly ready to <I>UPGRADE</I> to an Iphone. I know that some people fell out of there rolling-chair when I said upgrade, but the intuitive-ness of the device is undeniable. It knows me as only a lover could. Will I miss the WM world? Absolutely. But I have to beleive that there are wonderful forums for the Iphone just as there has been for the Kaiser and the Hermes and the Raphael.
So watch out clean pair of underoos, i am preparing for a true colon-blow! Soon I will have an Iphone and will retire my Tilt to the top shelf of my tech-storage closet; never to see the light of day again.
Good-bye my friend.
you are da man bro
you da man bro. my Tilt was broken for 2 months..hadda cracked screen..i gotta replacement screen from Hong Kong for $25 and replaced it myself and now we are back in action. reading your post brought back sweet memories of my Tilt and I...i can't wait to see where I take this baby next. I live in Milwaukee and this tiny city just wasn't the same without my Tilt.
good man.

You mean "dumbed-down" like iPhone
Regarding the previous post of yours:
Did you **** in your pants because you couldn't copy'and'paste, didn't have 3G, didn't have MMS, the only "software" you can use on your iPhone are webkit applets for the browser, and so on?
(I know it got 3G and finally cut'n'paste this year, but that's about all that has changed since I "****ted in my pants" when I discovered how stupid I was to waste my money on such castrated dumbphone )
Hi everyone...
Just when I think no one helps eachother anymore, I am given new faith in humanity... let me explain..
I have been "**** on" many times in my life... little faith in people anymore... I mean, we live in a world where you can actually have CRAP physically mailed to someone annonymously (www.poopsenders.com a real site)... So I am very cautious of people, and I guess live a sort of cynical life...
Recently my family and I upgraded out previous generation phoens to Touch Pro variants (mostly Fuze's).. we sll got out phones preowned.. and most in less thant desirable shape.. one battery onyl held a charge for 12 hours max (instead of 2.5 days like out other ones on the same rom)... scratches... mis-matches stylus, etc...
Then klown_41143 posted that he recently upgraded his phone, and would offer his old accessories for free to anyone who wanted them... I was skeptical at first.. I mean, why woudl this guy jsut give this stuff for free (2 OEM batteries, 2 styluses, a battery cover and a a300 adaptor.... I thought it was a joke, or he would want something in return... So I follow the directions in the post... and I get a responce from klown_41143 .. He would be happy to send it all to me, free of charge.. I am still thinking it is some sort or scam, but I thank him...
Then this monday he sends me a tracking number.. I am suprised... I check it out.. looks legit.. I wait.. .and this morning I got the package... exactly as described.. I was shocked... Here is this guy I never met... don't even recall if I ever posted a reply to one fo his psots before or vice versa... Not only does he send me stuff he could sell on here to make a few $$$, he pays extra to send it priority mail so I get it quickly, and even get a tracking number for me... I am judt realyl grateful... I know, some used items that he has little to no use for, "big deal".. but it was more than that for me...
So basically, even though this guy is a Jr. member here, if you see a post or something, please as a favor for me, go out of your way to help this guy... I would personalyl apprecitate it.... thanks for reading all my babble...

My step son accidently dropped his old 2nd generation iPod, it landed on the headphone jack and dislodged the jack. Of course no jack , no sound. This kid lives for his music, plays the guitar, loves garage band and thru working and saving for iTunes and downloading every CD I had , his Mother had and friends , had a iTunes library of over 3000 songs.
We all had a very tough financial year last year and didn't have lot of money , certainly not enough to buy the kids what they really wanted for Christmas. I felt so bad for my step son, that for Christmas, I wrapped my iPod Touch that I had gotten 2 years earlier when times were a lot better for us. He opened it for Christmas and was thrilled and so thankful even though it was 2 yrs old and all he got.
Last month he was at a party at his " friend's " house with other " friends ". Put his iPod down for a split second on a table while he talked to someone, turned around and it was gone. No one admitted taking it , it was just gone. He was just devastated, his prized possession.
My 8 year old in all his kindness gave him his shuffle until we can get him another music player.

I really wanted to. But he was such a good friend, he was like there for me when I was a freshman with no friends. I felt betrayed by his ethics. I don't know what to think about him.
But I did tell that what he did was immoral and that he should have tried to return it. I also told him that I disapproved.
But as for the original poster, I was going to say that I couldn't believe klown did that for a stranger, and I felt something fishy was going on... I mean he should make the receiver pay for shipping atleast right?.
Can klown please step up and talk? Is he rich or something?

I donl;t know if he is rich.. but he is nice reguardless
There're still good and sharefull people living around us eventhough the capitalist education and social mind is injecting selfishness to all. I am not really surprised to see that klown_41143 gave them for free. Stuff doesn't mean a few $$$bucks for everyone
Wow... im kinda touched. First lemme say I do not wanna drag up OLD posts, but I wasn't aware this was here. Lol
For the record, I am by no means rich, wealthy or loaded. Lmao. Extra parts were just that, extra. And for the small lot of stuff it would have cost more to ship than it was worth. Free stuff to good ppl, yhats how I was raised and try to do my best to stick with that tradition. As far as the priority shipping, everyone hates waiting on anything. Free or other wise. I am very glad that the stuff went to good use to a good family. Keep ur eyez peeled for other "free stuff" posts by me, im all the time giving something away
Lol.

This is sakai4eva, and I approve of this message.
Well played that man. The old philosophical debate is whether there are truly any altruistic deeds, but it's a step in the right direction at least. I always give away stuff i don't use, either to friends or charity shops. I've donated my entire book collection, designer clothes i've never worn, leftover PC hardware from upgrades etc. Right now i'm sitting on a Creative x-fi, OCZ Vertex and Nvidia 8800 GTX Ultra and an old copy of Win Vista. If i do the Sandybridge upgrade i've been considering i've basically got a spare 'puter. Decisions, decisions.
Anyway, it's nice to be nice!
So just before Christmas I bought a second hand Gear from Gumtree. Looked as new and works fine.
My wife, just shakes her head at me and keeps asking 'why'. Yes, like many of us on here, I do have a thing for gadgets.
She doesn't see the point of notifications etc on the watch.
Anyway, while having a meal in her parents house we were at the dining table and I'd left my Note 3 over in the lounge. I had a call come in... Was one of my colleagues from work. I answered the call via the watch just to say I'm eating and will call back.
To my shock the wife said "I have to say... That's pretty Awesome like"
Made my day that did and thought I'd share.

Yea people do not understand until they actually experience the watch for themselves. Once I got my watch setup they I wanted I find myself relying on it more than the actual smartphone

My wife is not a big tech person either, but she sees the benefits, and so many people out in public have asked about the watch, even when it was just on my wrist, but unlit, that the "cool factor" is definitely there. The reviews do not mean anything, as some online are still "writing" about it not do proper notifications, even though that was patched a month ago for most.

Someone at my job asked me if it did anything that blew me away. Not really, but the convenience of it is remarkable. I like being able to initiate a call in my car without having to take my attention away from driving. Once connected, I simply switch the call Bluetooth through my radio. I like being able to reject a call while in a meeting. I also like people asking " Is that one of those computer watches?". I'm still stock. My geek squad (teenage sons) are going to help me with mods.
Loving it
I work in a luxury jewelry store. I'm the service manager and I'm frequently asked by clients to help them set their Patek Philippe, Audimar Piquet or jaeger lecoultre watches. We are talking $70,000.00 watches folks... everytime they see my Gear I get compliments!
