Additional Info
Gus Kenworthy WebsitesAthlete Photo Gallery |
Gus Kenworthy has emerged as a double threat, mastering both slopestyle and halfpipe disciplines while maintaining a rapid ascent through the freeskiing ranks. Both his recent success and his childhood spent skiing the legendary steeps and backcountry of Telluride have put Kenworthy on the path to becoming one of the top all-around skiers in the world. Kenworthy first gained recognition for his park skiing with one of his ski movie edits he ] posted on the Internet. Shortly thereafter he began filming with well-known ski production companies and working his way into the freeskiing elite, a place he intends to stay. Kenworthy then had a clean sweep of the Aspen/Snowmass Open slopestyle and halfpipe skiing events in both 2010 and 2012, which he followed up by winning the 2011 and 2012 AFP overall titles. In the 2012 season, he competed in more than 23 events and took dual wins in big air and slopestyle at the final event of the season, the AFP World Championships. After putting his time in, 2013 proved to be a breakthrough season for Kenworthy. With over 20 competitions under his belt, he took second at the Olympic venue halfpipe World Cup in Sochi, Russia and won his first X Games medal in Tignes: a bronze in slopestyle. The momentum is pointing Kenworthy exactly where he would like it to…to Sochi, Russia. GUS SAYS FIRST TRACKS OFF THE SNOW |

I remember having a problem on my brother's R75/6 when we put some metric tires on. I just removed the stamped fender brace/mount and skeletonised it with a plasma cutter. I wish I had a picture of it. It looked stock and the front tire cleared with no problem.
I marked off the steel brace and almost started drilling, but it looks so cool I figgered I keep it and get a 90/90 front tire next time. Here's another pic, note my new lawn and garden battery with 365 cranking amps at 32 F. Still have to assemble some of the last items including a ninety degree petcock from Huckys so I can git that darn dipstick out a little easier.

Sure looks good!
lloks real good, except Id make the fork brace black, not orange
Oh about 1989 I picked that up from the flea market, came in red, its a San Jose piece, I think, hoops aren't connected, it's such a nice paint job, I just left it.
Last edited by 8ninety8; 12-18-2013 at 05:16 AM.
I agree, paint it. Also, it does not look like my San Jose brace. Nice bike too, love to see the progress. Thanks.
Looks great ! I like the orange brace too !
The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
I like your bike. I did not see that this thread is a poll on the color of the fork brace, but my $0.02 is paint it. Orange, being one of the brightest colors really attracts the eye. As no other parts on your bike are orange the brace and chrome fender become the focal point of the machine. If this is the intent of the restoration, then it succeeds.
They actually match the red on the 90 engine cover. Lots of stuff changed on this bike since I got it in '87. I've never seen another set of separate red hoops and now on a chrome fender the bike is starting to look more retro.

Got the twisted petcock installed, makes alot of nice room for the dipstick, the timing plug and the gas filter, if you're interested.
Last edited by 8ninety8; 12-18-2013 at 05:17 AM.
The second bottom yoke just pokes out under the fairing, had to drop the yoke to install the fairing, just clears with 26 mm between the two. Waiting for mufflers to get back from the welder. Thought, why not patch'em up considering what new ones cost..green mufflers!, who'da thunk it? Also added San Jose bottoming springs, seems not likely the sliders will touch the lower yoke.

I like how the dipstick handle has been drilled...that'll improve airflow and reduce the sprung mass of the bike...

Great pictures, that is a sharp looking ride.
But what is the cylinder with the wires just to the upper left of your oil dipstick? I can't figure out if its some emission thing....

Profile America - Saturday, September 21st. On this date in 1959, Congress acted to help some Americans achieve minimum levels of nutrition, passing a bill which created food stamps for those with low incomes. In 2008, the Food Stamp Program was renamed the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP. Today, there are nearly 47 million Americans enrolled in the program, more than double the number of a decade ago. The average value of the benefit they receive each month is almost $133, and the total cost of the federal program is some $78 billion a year. The state with the highest food stamp or SNAP participation is Oregon with nearly 18 percent of the population. States with the lowest rates included California, New Jersey and Wyoming.

Memo to Carly Rae Jepsen, Frank Ocean, Hunter Hayes, Mumford & Sons, Miguel, the Alabama Shakes and all the other young singers and bands who are nominated for Sunday night's Grammy Awards:
Your real prize -- the most valuable and sustaining award of all -- may not become evident to you until 30 or so years have passed.
You will be much older.
But -- if you are lucky -- you will still get to be out on the road making music.
Many of Sunday's Grammy nominees are enjoying the first wave of big success. It is understandable if they take for granted the packed concert venues and eye-popping paychecks.
Those may go away -- the newness of fame, the sold-out houses, the big money.
But the joy of being allowed to do what they do will go on.
I've been doing some work while staying at a small hotel off a highway in southwestern Florida. One winter day I was reading out on the pool deck, and there were some other people sitting around talking.
They weren't young, by anyone's definition. They did not seem like conventional businessmen or businesswomen on the road, or like retirees. There was a sense of nascent energy and contented anticipation in their bearing, of something good waiting for them straight ahead. A look completely devoid of grimness or fretfulness, an afternoon look that said the best part of the day was still to come.
I would almost have bet what line of work they were in. I'd seen that look before, many times.
I could hear them talking.
The Tokens ("The Lion Sleeps Tonight," a No. 1 hit in 1961).
Little Peggy March ("I Will Follow Him," a No. 1 hit in 1963).
Little Anthony and the Imperials ("Tears on My Pillow," a top 10 hit in 1958).
Major singing stars from an earlier era of popular music, in town for a multi-act show that evening.
It is the one sales job worth yearning for -- carrying that battered sample case of memorable music around the country, to unpack in front of a different appreciative audience every night.
It's quite a world. I was fortunate enough to learn its ins and outs during the 15 deliriously unlikely years I spent touring the United States singing backup with Jan and Dean ("Surf City," a No. 1 hit in 1963) and all the other great performers with whom we shared stages and dressing rooms and backstage buffets:
Chuck Berry, Martha and the Vandellas, Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, the Everly Brothers, James Brown, Lesley Gore, Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon, the Kingsmen, the Drifters, Fabian, the Coasters, Little Eva, the Ventures, Sam the Sham. ...
Jukebox names whose fame was once as fresh and electric as that now being savored by Sunday's young Grammy nominees.

Hectic pace, history part of Campbell's new gig at HU
Story | Dec 17, 2011 | 6:17 AMHAMPTON — Hampton University athletic director Keshia Campbell has yet to settle into her office — the same office (with the same carpet) that she occupied as HU's associate athletic director for administration in 2006. Looking around the space, crammed with trophies and plaques and shaken once every few minutes by muffled sonic booms from the weight room below, she says, "If I were to leave here today, I would grab my purse and that Germ-X," indicating a bottle of hand sanitizer on her desk. "That's it. I came in and literally just started working and just haven't let up at all."

We are pretty fortunate to live and work in a large city, so we don't have too much trouble with our cell phone signal. Every now and then, though, my phone will drop a call. It is so frustrating to be right in the middle of a thought, and then your call is gone. Then you have to call the other person back and hope they are not calling you back at the same time, which makes it even more frustrating. By the time you are back on the phone together, you forget what you are talking about.
Cell phone repeaters can help solve your cell phone reception problems. A cell phone repeater can give you improved reception and fewer dropped calls by amplifying a weak signal. It can also help with weak or slow text messaging, and 3G broadband. A cell phone repeater can increase your battery life and reduce radiation levels from your cell phone. When it increases the signal strength, your mobile phone doesn't have to work as hard to communicate with the nearest cell tower, and therefore, reduces its power output.
We received the Cell Ranger STIX from RepeaterStore.com for review.
Well, I should say that my "techie" husband received it for review. As soon as he saw it in the mailbox, he installed it on his car. He loves all of these high-tech gadgets, so he couldn't wait to try it out! The installation was simple. He placed the magnetic mount antenna on the roof of the car, and then ran the cable down through the sunroof.
Once he had the cable in the car, he just plugged it in to the accessory port and it was ready to go.
He has not had a dropped call since he installed the STIX! And every time he checks his reception bars, they are always full. Now I just have to figure out a way to get him to put this in my truck instead so I can experience the same great coverage! This will be great on those trips to see the grandparents, since we do run into areas that have a weak cell signal.
The MSRP for the Cell Ranger STIX is $149. You can purchase it at RepeaterStore.com for $129.
Cell phone repeaters are not just for your car. You can also boost your signal at home or in a small office with a repeater like the Wi-Ex zBoost SOHO YX545. To boost your signal in a large building, use a repeater such as the Wilson 801262 DB PRO. And if you're like me and use your phone for a data connection while riding along as a passenger in the car, you can boost that signal with the Wilson 801240 SignalBoost Pro. RepeaterStore.com can help you boost your signal anywhere!

Oklahoma prison workers say they are worn out due to staffing shortages, low wages and the increasing prison population.
About a dozen uniformed prison guards visited the state Capitol Wednesday, urging lawmakers to reconsider their decision not to support a pay raise for workers at the Department of Corrections.
"DOC is at a breaking point," said Sgt. David Edelman, an officer at the Lexington Assessment and Reception Center. "We are being forced to do 60-to-80 hours a week, and used to we could ask for overtime, but not anymore, we're being forced."
A $12 million proposal to give prison workers a five percent pay increase stalled earlier this session in a House committee.
I don't know about you, but if I were the 10th of 15 children, it'd be easy to get lost in the crowd. But Leona Mitchell didn't use her large family as an excuse to fade into the background. In 2010, she told OETA's Gerry Bonds on OKC Metro that a life-changing teacher took her under her wing.
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - A $7.1 billion general appropriations bill to fund state government for the upcoming fiscal year has cleared its first hurdles among rank-and-file legislators.
Separate House and Senate committees easily passed the bill on Wednesday, despite opposition from Democrats and a few Republicans.
Some members from both parties voiced concern that the budget included about $5 million for the House and Senate to renovate office space, but failed to include funding for pay raises for prison workers or state troopers.
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services say an Oklahoma state program that uses Medicaid funding to provide insurance to 30,000 low-income Oklahomans must change in order to keep its funding.
The Insure Oklahoma program needs a renewed waiver to use Medicaid funding to help some people pay for private insurance. CMS sent a letter Tuesday explaining the denial of that waiver to Oklahoma's Health Care Authority, which runs the Insure Oklahoma program.
U.S. Rep. James Lankford (R-OK5) was one of several members of Congress today questioning three top diplomats about September's deadly assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.
U.S. State Department foreign service officer and former deputy chief of mission in Libya Gregory Hicks told Lankford the only person who can waive security requirements for high-risk, high threat locations is the Secretary of State.
Seventeen Air Force officers with control over nuclear missiles have had that authority suspended after receiving poor reviews on their mastery of launch operations, The Associated Press reports in an exclusive.
Even though the semester is ending and kids are getting out of school, there are still several events that can encourage intellectual interest. But don't keep scrolling just yet: none of these events is your boring algebra lecture.
Operatic soprano and Enid-native Leona Mitchell offers the first installment of her two-part master class this Saturday at 1:00 p.m. at the Downtown Library.
Bangladeshi police say the death toll from the collapse of a building housing five garment factories has passed 800 and continues to climb.
Sima Bhowmik, a journalist with ABC Radio in Bangladesh, worked at KGOU for several weeks as part of a U.S. State Department program.
She followed the unfolding events of the building collapse in her country, and told World Views a lack of oversight and high rent contribute to a disturbing trend of tragedies in the garment industry.
"The owners, they want to save money, and they go for a cheap building, which is not really fit for his industry," Bhowmik says.

In his first major case while moonlighting for Stan Chesley's law firm, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters suffered a crushing defeat earlier this month when a jury rejected a product liability claim seeking tens of millions of dollars in damages. As a result, Deters has scuttled his plans to eventually move full-time into the private sector and instead will seek reelection as prosecutor in 2012, say Republican Party sources.
A media furor has erupted over a "newly released" letter to Pope Paul VI that indicates he and the Vatican knew about child sexual abuse by priests almost 50 years ago.
News accounts report the 1963 letter was released by attorneys in California who represented sexual abuse victims in the Los Angeles Diocese. In fact, those same attorneys have previously released numerous damning documents that got little media attention until now.
"The First Energy Family has contributed more than $44,000.00 into re-election campaigns for Justices Cupp and O'Donnell this year alone," O'Neill, a Democrat who is running for the Ohio Supreme Court, wrote. "It is simply wrong for them to continue sitting on First Energy cases."
The Ohio Supreme Court, which has seven justices decide
the state's top judicial cases, is currently handling a case
involving FirstEnergy, an energy company based in Akron. More than
300,000 customers are suing the company over alleged fraud. The 11th
District Court of Appeals previously ruled against FirstEnergy, and the case was appealed to the Ohio Supreme Court.
The lawsuit is the fifth Ohio Supreme Court case involving FirstEnergy this year.
O'Neill pointed out the lawsuit "could easily be a billion dollar case" before writing, "And the public has a right to know that the ruling was not purchased by one side or another."
Ohio Sen. Mike Skindell, a Democrat who is also running for the Ohio Supreme Court, endorsed O'Neill's letter. In the past, he also criticized Cupp and O'Donnell for potential conflicts of interest.
The offices of Cupp and O'Donnell did not immediately respond to CityBeat's requests for comment on the letter. This story will be updated if responses become available.
UPDATE OCT. 4, 4:12 P.M.: Mark Weaver, spokesperson for Cupp, responded: "Mr. O'Neill previously raised this argument with disciplinary authorities by filing a complaint. It was reviewed by disciplinary authorities, and they unanimously dismissed it as having no merit."
U.S. Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Miami Township) just doesn't fare so well in unscripted situations. In the latest example of that political truism, Schmidt testified Monday for nearly five hours in a deposition taken by attorneys for David Krikorian.
The deposition was taken in preparation for a Sept. 3 hearing before the Ohio Elections Commission. Schmidt filed a complaint with the commission alleging that Krikorian knowingly made a false statement about Schmidt in a piece of campaign literature last year.
So, just who did Jean Schmidt think was paying her mounting legal bills, anyhow?
That's the lingering question after the House Ethics Committee ruled today that Schmidt, a Republican congresswoman from Miami Township, did receive an "impermissible gift" by accepting about $500,000 in free legal help since spring 2009, but somehow didn't "knowingly" violate the law.
Nearly 15 months after the disputed election, a federal judge ruled today that Hamilton County elections officials must count roughly 300 provisional ballots cast in a 2010 Juvenile Court judge race.
U.S. District Judge Susan Dlott said that the Board of Elections violated the voters' constitutional rights when it decided to count some provisional ballots but discard others based solely on the location of where they were cast.
A review of the fine print in Ohio law could spell trouble for
Duke Energy in its dispute with Cincinnati about who must pay to move utility
lines to accommodate the city's streetcar project.
Readers of CityBeat's March 6 cover story know that one of the legal arguments made by Duke Energy is that it said the system qualifies as a utility itself under Ohio law. And one utility has no legal obligation to reimburse another utility, Duke added.
City officials disagree with Duke's interpretation, and the two sides currently are trying to negotiate a compromise to the impasse.
The city is willing to pay $6 million to relocate Duke's natural gas, chilled water, fiber and electrical infrastructure along the streetcar route, but the firm insists it will cost at least $18.7 million and possibly more.
A close reading of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC), however, reveals it is unlikely that a streetcar system qualifies as a "public utility."
Under Ohio law, the following items are defined as public utilities:
"A motor transportation company, when engaged in the
business of carrying and transporting persons or property or the business of
providing or furnishing such transportation service, for hire, in or by motor-propelled
vehicles of any kind, including trailers, for the public in general,
over any public street, road, or highway in this state." ORC §4905.03
But motor-propelled vehicles aren't defined under Ohio law. The ORC does, however, define "motor vehicle" as:
"(B) "Motor vehicle" means any vehicle, including mobile homes and recreational vehicles, that is propelled or drawn by power other
than muscular power or power collected from overhead electric trolley wires.
"Motor vehicle" does not include utility vehicles as defined in division (VV)
of this section, motorized bicycles, road rollers, traction engines, power
shovels, power cranes, and other equipment used in construction work and not
designed for or employed in general highway transportation, well-drilling
machinery, ditch-digging machinery, farm machinery, and trailers that are
designed and used exclusively to transport a boat between a place of storage
and a marina, or in and around a marina, when drawn or towed on a public road
or highway for a distance of no more than ten miles and at a speed of
twenty-five miles per hour or less." ORC
Streetcars operate using overhead trolley wires, thus they aren't considered
motor vehicles under Ohio law. But do they even qualify as vehicles? The ORC
defines vehicles as:
"(A) "Vehicles" means everything on wheels or runners, including motorized bicycles, but does not mean electric personal assistive mobility devices, vehicles that are operated exclusively on rails or tracks or from overhead electric trolley wires, and vehicles that belong to any police department, municipal fire department, or volunteer fire department, or that are used by such a department in the discharge of its functions." ORC §4501.01(A)
Of course, streetcars run on rails and use power from electric
trolley wires. So, they aren't vehicles either. The conclusion: Either "motor-propelled vehicles" mean the same as "motor
vehicles" (in which case it doesn't apply to streetcars) or "motor-propelled"
is an adjective to "vehicle" (which also doesn't apply, as streetcars aren't
vehicles). In each instance, a streetcar system doesn't fall into the legal realm of a "motor transportation company" and therefore isn't a "public utility."

This fragrance never lets me down! I first bought Jewel back in 2006 as a impromptu fragrance gift set for a Christmas gift but ended up keeping it for myself. Wise choice! Since then I've used other perfumes because my mood changes and so does my scent but when I sprayed Jewel after so many years later, I remember why I loved it so much. I'll have to keep this in my permanent rotation!
