For More Information Please Contact: TRUE-TRACK TECH DRAWS ATTENTION–Just read Rouge’s tech install on the True- Track.I’m wondering if it really does much good? My 2000 Road King Classic drifts thrugh curves into on coming at high speedstraffic. I’ve tried different shocks and tires, but it still floats like a blimp. Can you hook me up? –TBear I spoke to Wil Phillips this morning. You’re good to go. Wil’s web site won’t launch until the end of the week. BIKERNET HMO INFO– Q. What does HMO stand for? A. This is actually a variation of the phrase, “HEY MOE.” Its roots go back to a concept pioneered by Moe of the Three Stooges, who discovered that a patient could be made to forget about the pain in his foot if he was poked hard enough in the eyes. Q. I just joined an HMO. How difficult will it be to choose the doctor I want? A. Just slightly more difficult than choosing your parents. Your insurer will provide you with a book listing all the doctors in the plan. These doctors basically fall into two categories — those who are no longer accepting new patients, and those who will see you but are no longer participating in the plan. But don’t worry; the remaining doctor who is still in the plan and accepting new patients has an office just a half-day’s drive away and has a diploma from a Third World Country. Q. Do all diagnostic procedures require precertification? A. No. Only those you need. Q. Can I get coverage for my pre-existing conditions? A. Certainly, as long as they don’t require any treatment. Q. What happens if I want to try alternative forms of medicine? A. You’ll need to find alternative forms of payment. Q. My pharmacy plan only covers generic drugs, but I need the name brand. I tried the Generic Medication, but it gave me a stomach ache. What should I do? A. Poke yourself in the eye. Q. What if I’m away from home and I get sick? A. You really shouldn’t do that. Q. I think I need to see a specialist, but my doctor insists he can handle my problem. Can a general practitioner really perform a heart transplant right in his office? A. Hard to say, but considering that all you’re risking is the $15 co-payment, there’s no harm in giving him a shot at it. Q. Will health care be different in the next century? A. No. But if you call right now, you might get an appointment by then. –from Bob T. ROGUE ON WHEEL ALIGNMENT–When installing a larger tire or wheel you still have to find the centerof the wheel, and to do that you are moving it to the left. No Matter what size wheel or tire you use, the Rear Wheel Has To BeCentered In The Swing Arm ( Center of the rim to the center of the toprail)to make the bike handle correctly. When you place an 8-foot flourscent light bulb on either side of the rear wheel and securethem (I use soft bungee cords), the bulbs “Must” touch the front and rear of thetire. They are now forming parallel lines of the rear wheel to the front. As they run past the front wheel you measure between the bulbs at thefront and rear of the wheel. This centers the wheel and front end. Whenthat is even then you measure from the bulb to the wheel until both areeven. The front wheel which is usually smaller is now Centered in the Middleof the Rear Wheel. –Rogue WILD PIGS GO NATIONAL-BYTBEAR–There are clubs for just about every type of motorcycle rider these days. Doctors, Lawyers and Indian Chiefs, so it doesn’t surprise me that there is even a motorcycle club for Police Officers, who like to ride hard and party hardy, after a long day of dealing with the bad guys. No, not the Blue Knights but the Wild Pigs MC. Until now, the club was mainly for law enforcement personnel in the NY and Massachusetts area. Last weekend the clubs banded together to welcome a new chapter from Delaware and present them with their club colors. Way out in the country in Renseleer County, NY, The New York and Mass. Chapters of the Wild Pigs MC gathered together to welcome their new brothers to the fold. A raucous affair indeed complete with riding events, bands, dunk tanks, a home made whiskey slide and scantily clad Swinettes was the order of the day to welcome their new brothers. ” We’re just regular guys with high stress jobs who like to blow off a little steam from time to time” Said “Lomoman”, the NY Chapters president. ” We’re no different from other bikers who like to have some fun” They put away the badges and guns for the day and proved that they’re just like the rest of us. Well, maybe they can have a little more fun without the local constabulary stopping by to check up on them.
