Finally Restored my 83 ATC250r...then it craps out!

Fabio, I usually read your posts with a degree of restraint..you have the experience and have been here longer than most..

Respectfully, I feel you need to practice a little humility..I don't see DC, one of the oldest and most experienced in here talking down to other members as you do. No matter how repetative or remedial he feels the questions are..

You treat everyone who has less posts than you like they need to mind their place!!

There are, of course, other members who do the same but all too often you are the pack member that starts the other dogs barking!

Lighten up on the junior members would ya??!! You opinion and knowledge is appreciated, just tone down the attitude a bit..

[fabiodriven]

No. I have zero tolerance for stupidity.

No. I have zero tolerance for stupidity.

Lack of knowledge isn't the same as stupid!! There aren't stupid questions..

Stupid is not asking questions and just f$#ing everything up thinking you know what you are doing..

We were all kids once who didn't know dlck..the knowledgeable ones are the ones who asked questions and learned..

[dougspcs]

Tolerance is another trait that is learned with experience!! At least most do..because intolerance is stupid!

It's how wars start and buildings get knocked down killing thousand with no apparent reason!!

[fabiodriven]

I will point out for the second time I tried to help the kid. My intolerance for stupidity in this case isn't against the OP as much as it is for the members who are sticking up for him and saying nobody tried to help him when clearly I did.

[dougspcs]

Why don't you look and tell us? How in the hell are we going to tell you if the key sheared?

If I read one of your posts directed at me (and I have). I would kinda feel you were being a dlck!!

It's not what you said that I am referring too..but how you say it!!

Nothing more..

fabio I migh be a kid... but I know how to speak to others... Idk what your trying to be like but this is a website not the marine corps. So you can stop trying to be a DI or what ever you think you got going on.

[tlalumiere]

To threewheelin and Twighlight- The friggin kid is asking US if his flywheel key is sheared. On what planet are you that we can tell him that. He has to tell us that! If you're so smart and helpful, why don't you tell him if his key is sheared.

threewheelin, I'm getting sick of your disrespect. You're a kid for cripes sake. Have some respect. And stop the name calling. I'd say you should know better but again, you're just a kid.

Don't try and tell me nobody's trying to help the kid. Did you miss this?



Don't you have people to rip off Twilight?

First off Fabio, Im no kid, ya that pic of me is old doin a handlebar wheelie on my 200x. I was asking for more imput to see if other people have had similar problem like this before. As for tearing the bike down for the 2nd time, i work and go to school fulltime, hardly have enough time to tinker like i used to. So i was hoping i would get a little knowledge feedback from some motorheads, but instead i got Knucklehead feedback..... from some.

Thanks guys for standing up for what i was trying to accomplish, and for the useful knowledge you gave me. I think i can hold my own...rah

Some other quick problems i found , its getting fuel, spark, and as for compression, it feels fine kicking it it over, ill have to get a compression test, but backfires once every 6th-7th kick over.

Friday was my first dayoff in a long time, was good to finally hop on the trike after 5 years, so this thursday when i get the plastics in ill do some more diagnostics and keep you knowledgeable people informed....with pics.

That's pretty cool that you own two machines but list 6 in your signature.

[fabiodriven]

The two guys who "helped" you didn't offer any mechanical advise whatsoever. I actually gave you advice. That's the last time I help you.

The problem with me isn't that I think I'm exceedingly smart, it's just that other people aren't so bright.

Im sorry i asked a question, i figured i would receive help, thats what forums are for...... ya didnt have to start off with a response like your first that didnt help me out what so ever. And i never said i thought you were exceedingly smart, i thank you for your advice, i hope we can all just get along.

[fabiodriven]

Apology accepted.

[three_wheelin45]

I think its wierd I have been a member since 06... with less then half the post fabio has had... Someone is a post whore lurking for attention. Really nerve racking!!

'three_wheeler' I think you hit the nail on the head..

Your words Fabio..wow man you are a piece of work!!

It's clear who Fabio is now and that he isn't here to contribute anything valuable, but to massage his only ego..
