FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
with Evad & Dave O.
Evad Semaj' Cyberspokes Chief Computer
Engineer
"Dave O" Cyberspokes President. Notice the "duct tape
tool" ??
Well, we definitely can't claim to answer ALL your questions but ... we figured that, if we could convince BOTH these guys to put their heads together we would stand a pretty good chance of getting at least SOME of the questions answered. It has been said that Evad Semaj' and Dave O. work so closely together that they're one-in-the-same!
Just a few ground rules to set your expectations. Dave O. has been know to turn a wrench or two but he is NO MASTER MECHANIC. Ya think he would need duct tape to fix the above pictured Harley if he was? Evad is pretty amazing when it comes down to troubleshooting computers and finding cool stuff on the Internet but he is NO MASTER HTML PROGRAMMER. Don't forget, if you don't find your answer here, check out our SEARCH or CONTENTS pages. Now that we got that out of the way... Let's ROCK!
Please note: We HIGHLY encourage you to patronize your LOCAL BUSINESSES FIRST. Then, if they can't help you... "Ride the Net".

Who is making new bikes these days that don't look like all the other EVO clones? No matter what they do, that engine looks like everyone else's! -Buzz
I agree Buzz! All the custom paint, chopped frames/fenders, and billet still won't do much to make that EVO stand out in a crowd. I would recommend taking a look at our NEW BIKES page. You can get a nice Indian from Kiwi Indian, a Knucklehead or Flatty from KnuckleHead Power USA. You can also get complete Panhead, Knucklehead, and Shovelhead engines from Accurate Engineering, S&S, and Nostalgia Cycle. Chrome Specialties has a Panhead engine too. They call theirs "Pan-demonium".

When is someone going to make a camcorder which I can mount on my Harley? -Shutter Snake
Snake, I haven't seen a camcorder specifically for a bike yet but you can use the mount from Desert Iron Images to mount just about any camcorder to you handlebars.

Where can I find BIKER discussion groups, bulletin boards, forums, tech tips & chat rooms... ? - Woody
Hi Woody! Your first stop should be our Cyberspokes Clubhouse page. You can also find plenty of these features by going to the sites listed on our SEARCH page. Two of my favorites are Direct Parts, Inc. and BabeOnHD.

Why doesn't my AOL account display all web sites properly, if at all? - The Pan Man
Well Pan Man, in addition to MANY other proprietary features, AOL has an option that compresses graphics the AOL way, and only other AOL users can see them if you save them like that. And the option is automatically on when you install AOL. They never tell you about it! For more info on this go to BabeOnHD's AOL Sucks page.

What is the deal with men and bar stools? I can't get my old man to move anywhere once he sits on one. - Biker Barb
Barb, your prayers have been answered! I have the perfect gift for your old man's next birthday. It's the Bar Fly barstool by Mid-USA products. I'm sure this will get him moving!

Hey guys, every time I take my dog for ride he ends up sliding all over the place. Is there anything out there that can hold my pooch in place? - Beeb
Your right Beeb, I can't tell you how many times I spent hours cleaning blood and fur out of my spokes after a nice long ride. I should probably install some baffles so I could hear better. Not to mention the vet bills! Hey, before you call the SPCA, I'm just kidding! Seriously, check out The Dog Pack from Beast Riders. You will be able to pack your pooch safely and comfortably on your bike.
Do you guys know of something which stops that annoying cramp in my throttle hand after a long ride? I don't have cruise control. -Digger
Digger, the first thing I would recommend would be moving the Easyriders magazines out of the bathroom. That should save some wear and tear on the old wrist. If that doesn't do it, you might want to purchase a Cramp Buster. It's a cool little device which attaches to your throttle grip, and it's cheap!
