Waiting on a call back from Yamaha, they still might replace my broken throttle cable under "good faith" even though it's already been replaced under recall.

There is a recall on the throttle cable for it breaking. My ski was fixed back in 2006 when it was new, but Yamaha might still replace it anyways. Waiting on the call back.

Nope they won't cover it. Goodbye $300 for a stupid throttle cable.

Giving the government money so that Donald Trump, GE, Unilever, and foreign companies doing business on our soil do not have to pay any.

I would think that 9 years of use on a cable that's in pretty much constant motion when in use ain't so bad. If I get that on my $650 dollar fuel pump, I will be happy.

He yes Trumph no. You do realize he has paid his share and lost fist over fist in the past. Only breaks he gets is on his properties in lower income zones that boost property values on surrounding property based off of his improvements. Some properties he is looked at as a value improver and economic booster thus gets write offs. But I will be famed if he still does not stroke a half million dollar tax check a year.

I am a small real estate owner with a couple properties one being a 10k ft floor of an office building and I will tell you this I get breaks but it also cost me a lot in operations. This is a long term game not a short. Where Trumph is 1000x more invested but still same %.

You should be saying #screwHillary and that is a wrap.

Hillary scares me, but I have to tell the truth when I say that what the Republican party has become - scares me more.

Looking to upgrade from my 10 year old DSLR, a Canon 20d.

So far the best bang for the buck seems to be the Sony A6000

I would not get the sony. as for the after market lens market being so damn limited. STICK WITH NIKON OR CANNON.. i am a nikon guy being that i committed about 9 years ago to nikon and have around 4k in lenses i will get another nikon body when i have another 10k clicks on this body. i have around 90k on it now and the 100k mark is rebuild time. ill toss on eBay for a couple bills to go towards a new body and continue with life.

You can buy lens adapters and put any brand lens you want on a Sony (or Canon lenses on your Nikon).

I don't need 50 lenses either. I take landscape/storm photography. I only need one lens on my camera.. a manual focus 12mm F2.0.

What bothers me about the sony is it's not weather sealed, but nothing that compares to it's image quality is in my price range that is weather sealed. It's currently the highest quality crop sensor on the market, and it's only $700.

I decided to wait a little to buy a new digital camera and instead bought a new-to-me lens on craigslist that is optically superior to my current coke bottle. It gave me a giant step up in image quality.
