No MS Paint in the accessories?

I caught that too Bum ,,, good thing Tip don't have an account of her own here cause she'd be :buttkick:these lop eared varmints and would them with,, "you guys obviously have not spent much time on the back of Tweeks with Puc at the helm :big-grin-emoticon:" I live in that passing lane when on the scoot, ride a little faster than traffic to keep from gettin run over - normally the passing lane is smoother PLUS - I always like to have an extra lane to give deer a place to run down the road without running into me.. I am a hard core "dont block traffic" person though, if I am hanging around out there and I see one coming behind me I MOVE OVER = ALWAYS!!! Now to really and :stickpoke:this thread, here are some other things I would LOVE to see: 1. Pass a law that requires ALL stop lights to be in "time" with all other lights in the area in all States. Drive the speed limit and never have to stop. Saves gas, saves time AND would save lifes. 2. Pass a Federal Helmet Law that lets people choose for themselves whether they wear one or not in all States (still a hard core personal freedom lover here). 3. Country wide law that requires all Semi Trucks to maintain forward passing movement when passing another vehicle, if they pull out to pass and they are caught blocking traffic by not making forward progress while passing its ticket time - no more blocking traffic, especially with miles and miles of open road in front of them. Some people need to realize that traffic control/patrol is not in their job write up unless they have a badge. 4. Lane splitting allowed country wide for all motorcycles when traffic slows to below 15 miles per hour. I LOVE this about California!! 5. Motorcycles allowed an extra 5 mph above speed limits. An example, On open interstates = Trucks - 75 mph, Cages - 80, Bikes - 85. 6. IRS tax refund on 50% of license fee's on Motorcycles to encourage people to use bikes for commuting and to ride more. More bikes equal safer riding environment for all AND less fuel used country wide! 7. States to have "Virtual Reality" motorcycle testing (onscreen viewing of everyday on road situations - computer records and quantifies users responses to these situations) for licensing.. Didnt head check the intersection and got ran over on screen? Forgot to pull the clutch in when ya came to a stop sign 5 times in a row? Came to a stop in 5th gear and took 2 minutes at a busy intersection figuring out what gear you were suppose to be in? = no license this time, go practice and come back when your road ready.. 8. Same "construction zone" type of fines/fee's/jail time's levied on Auto drivers if found guilty for purposely injuring a biker. Yes, we gotta watch for the cars just like the construction workers do BUT it would be good to encourage cagers to watch for us too. 8. No more Star Motorcycle imports until they produce a new Venture with the 1700cc V-4 V-Max motor!!

of Banana Nut Ice Cream that a person known as Condor he had sent from an ice cream store located in Elk Grove California named Leatherby's. Only a couple of people in the crowd had ever even heard of such a joint or the Banana Nut ice cream they are well known for on the West Coast. The Bird had been flapping his wings and tears were in his eyes as he watched Big Tom shovel the last four cups of Rocky Road into his bottomless canyon of ice cream desire when Mini Muffin took a small spoonful of Banana Nut and placed it in the Birds mouth. The Birds wet tear filled eyes lit up, with his uncuffed hand he grabbed the spoon out of Muffins hand and

Heyyyyy,, hi ya Big Tom:15_8_211[1]:!! A very Merry Christmas right back at cha brother:santa:! Also, by the sounds of things, I really need to wish you a fantastic New Year of some awesome decision making there my friend - WOW :scared:have you got some great things to decide!! Hope to be able to see your "flag" flying again this year along the Venturing trail my friend, maybe even share some more :ice_awesome-vi46644with ya!!! Thanks for touching base with us! Puc

OUTSTANDING DON!!!!!:clap2::dancefool: Now we are talking REAL top of the line Christmas presents!!:thumbsup: That precious Grand Daughter of yours looks like she is ready and raring to go for a cross country tour with her Grand pappy -dont get no better than that my friend!!! Congrats to the both of you for taking full advantage of this amazing weather and putting that gorgeous scoot of yours to work doing what it is suppose to be doing! Beautiful post, THANK YOU for sharing WITH A PIC, sure would have not wanted to have called out the on ya when your Grand Daughter was present:big-grin-emoticon:

Big Tom, whose ice cream spoon looked very familiar to the crowd gathered around him. A ladies voice was heard over the crowd, she was asking people if they had seen the spatula that had mysteriously disappeared from a large bowl of spaghetti. The crowd turned from the lady and glared with suspicious eyes at

and,, whats your point :Laugh::Laugh::Laugh::Laugh: Gotta admit,, I was able to slyly pry some more info about the ride out of ya Bill:dancefool::dancefool::dancefool: Took a little doings but hey,, what are friends for Love ya brother!

Now we're cooking with hot hydraulic fluid - GOOD ON YA SYS!!!:clap2: And VERY good suggestion on the R1 Calipers too:thumbsup:

Sorry about your scoot Camos BUT VERY glad your ok!! Sure looks totally repairable to me too! I was kinda thinking similar to @Marcarl here only I thought the Calipers appeared to have gotten really really HOT.. Wondering how much you had ridden with the brake caliper sticking.. I know this may sound crazy (you would be surprised how many times I have been told "Puc,, puc puc puc,, thats just crazy" but I have personally seen a sticky caliper causing brake pads to drag, the dragging pads actually got hot enough to cause the brakes to start seizing on the rotor and I happen to notice it all cause my buddies bike that it happened on ended up with a cherry red hot rotor that literally was glowing red before he came to screeching halt (it was his rear brake - front brake and it could easily have had the results you experienced @camos!! I point that all out because the pics do show some strange looking caliper - like it got really hot.. If that is the case I would be checking the rotor and the brake lines too very carefully.. Sort of like damages I would look for in a fire restore.. Just not wanting you to hit the road thinking all is well and discover you have other issues that needed to be dealt with to have it be safe.. All the best in the rebuild my friend!! Puc

, especially if he did not feed Mr. Freebird some Rocky Road Ice Cream before he returned him to his wife. The two of them snuck over to the Ice Cream table where

Spent some time with my sister down in Hilliard Oh.. Skies got dark and started pouring rain as I was pulling out!! Later heard they had nado's in Picua or Troy or something.. COULD NOT BELIEVE IT = NADO'S IN DECEMBER:confused24: Anyway, guess no news is good news when dealing with those things XV,, hopefully all of our lop eared varmint friends are ok down there!!

@bj66 Bernie I use "Paint" to resize pics, it really easy,, you can find out all about it PLUS some other varmints posted other methods they use in this thread = http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?109624-Just-discovered-something-picture-resizing-made-easy&highlight=paint+pictures Also,, that Freebird guy has really good tutorial section about it all too = found here = http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?92609-How-to-add-a-picture-to-a-post Now,, about those pics?

Sounds like an AWESOME addition to the scoot Fool!! I also like the idea of you tinkering with those lights instead of other things you could be tinkering with - that Santa,, he is just a win-win kinda varmint I guess!!

Dont know if your a Face Book friendly type or not Jack, if you are you might try sticking this up on the VR Facebook page, last time I was there I noticed a LOT of our lop eared varmint friends hanging out on our page there - may get more responses if ya did. Personally, I have a hard enough time finding the time to keep up with stuff on this portion of the site, aint no way I can keep up with them Face Book VR varmints,, way to fast paced for me Wish there was some way to have VR Face Book streaming somewhere here ( that @Freebird has GOT to be wondering why he ever accepted my dollar a month ) so we could keep up with things - ,, kinda like that shout box thingy he did..

VERY VERY GOOD POINT BROTHER!! My bad!! Hopefully I didnt offend our friend Bill or that gorgeous scoot of his:thumbsup: If I did, Bill PLEASE forgive me! Think I will still leave my narrative up though,, just in case:big-grin-emoticon: Right back you and Vicki on the Christmas and New Years well wish my friend!! Wont be long now and we will all be chowing them Dogs down by the dozens brother:fatsmiley:

Just noticed there are some folks who might be following this thread that may not know who @CMCOFFEY is,, thought I would put a link up to a short ride report I did about some time a bunch of us got to spend with him. The story got a little long so I am starting it kind of in the middle of all the action to help those interested in reading about one of America's finest. What a very special person Chris is, his LOVE of sharing times with his fellow VentureRider.org mates is only seconded by his love for his wife and children, our way of life (FREEDOM) and even more so - his love for serving the Lord (he is also VERY well known under his earned biker name of "The Preacher" ) . Feel free to browse through this link if you wanna know more about Chris (you will have to do some scrolling forward and back to locate the good stuff BUT - Coff is in there in his truest form:happy65:!!)

It's about another dear brother and friend of our's that you may remember me telling you about when we finally arrived in Oregon - he is also a Military person (thinking he served in Irag).. Click this link and take a short read if ya got time Preacher - YOU WILL LOVE IT!!http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?114501-Do-not-be-afraid-for-I-bring-you-good-tidings

You betcha @shuttlebug 's, your welcome and GLAD you folks jumps in here!! We sure had some fun with that young man didnt we?!!! Sure miss him but am VERY proud have gotten to know Chris (and you folks too!!). Merry Christmas you two!!

NICE BILL - VERY VERY NICE!!:dancefool::dancefool::clap2::thumbsup: BUT,,, heyyy,, wait a minute here,, hmmmmm,,,,,,,,,hmmmm It appears that I may just be the only varmint on here that knows an RSV when he see's one:stirthepot:,, got news for you folks,, that aint no RSV.. Next, the picture of the person in that pic is definitely NOT my buddy and fellow lop eared Hot Dog eating varmint Bill:witch_brew: PLUS,, I dont see our friend Pam @billmac 's wife in there in any form.. And lastly,, where's the Hot Dog's,, Bill dont go no where unless there are Hot Dogs involved:guitarist 2::guitarist 2: So,, from all that, I can only surmise that my buddy has been HI-JACKED and his identity stolen!!!! Whoever you are that posted this picture and story - YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN"T HIDE:bobby: Calling all VentureRiders,, as chief of the ,, I am putting an AVB (that would be an All VentureRider.org Bulletin for those who dont know official police chit chat) out for my friend Bill, his precious wife Pam and their gorgeous scoot "Black-Mail" (its a Midnight RSV if you never met it and dont know it by name). All last seen at a Dairy Queen eating Hot Dogs and Ice Cream with a large group of fellow lop eareds. Identifiable marks would be a permanent mustard stain on Bill's chin, a huge smile on his brides face and a small ice cream stain on Black-Mails tank (not sure but the stain may have hot fudge marks in it too). Following are a couple pics - first one is of Bill, Pam and Black-Mail. I know most of you lop eareds aren't necessarily the sharpest tacks in the box at things that dont involve food or carb syncing so I will try and help you out here. , if you look closely at Black-Mail (the motorcycle in the attached pic) = that is Black-Mail your looking at. A close examination should reveal that he is black in color - look back at the pic the OP has in this thread and, if you remember your colors from kenny's garden that scoot is blue in color - see the difference? There are many other differences between the two bikes that a highly trained eye such as mine can easily spot BUT - for most normal folks, the color will be easiest to spot. Next, the man in the pic I have included is my friend Bill. I know the OP tried to hide his appearance by wearing a green hoody looking thing so we cant go by facial recognition,, we can go by body size though,, notice how much bigger the rider in the OP's post is,, thinking if he were actually sitting on his scoot instead of showing off his ability to balance things on his hands you would instantly be able to see how HUGE this character is. Now look at Bill and you will notice he is not even close to this in height or weight. Also notice the smirk on Bills face,, for some reason unknown to me, that smirk is pretty much permanent (may have something to do with Black-mail) - look for the smirk and you will find Bill. Pam hid in the picture I posted but that is ok, she doesnt even appear in the second one - another giveaway that something is wrong here!! If you find Bill, Pam or Black-mail, please let us know.. By the way,, if you are not sure that it's my friend Bill you are looking at - he may not answer to Bill but if mention Hot Dogs and his ears perk up you will KNOW you found him!!

You betcha sonshine - GLAD you got the message and were able to respond!! :clap2: Looking forward to riding, camping and playing with you and that boy of yours in 2017 Coff :dancefool::dancefool: God Bless and PLEASE be safe out there! We love and miss you! Puc n Tip

And the bestest of the bestest, biggest of the biggest and merriest of the merriest Merry Christmas's RIGHT BACK AT YOU BJ!!!! :thumbsup:

,,, :dancefool::dancefool::dancefool::dancefool::dancefool::clap2::clap2::clap2::thumbsup: There has to be more to this life down below, it just makes no sense, what I see is no show. Why would we be here if monkeys we were, if the only big difference were our cloths and their fir. Why are some people so filled up with hate , human life has no meaning when they go irate. Yet others around us have a smile on their face, there's something about them that others could trace. Look deep in their eyes and into their heart, it's Jesus you'll find whose behind their fresh start. A time in their life when His gift they received, they heard of His life changing ways and believed. This happened to many who've walked on life's shore, a change in their heart like never before. A meaning, a purpose like never they've had, now my brother has found Him and his name is Brad. A tear in my eyes formed from hearing this news, when I read that my friend and God's love he did choose. When I read this to Tippy her eye's filled up too, we both did rejoice in what our friend did just do. Ironic it seems that on this Christmas Day, we have the BEST present that ANY could say. When this life is over and God calls us on high, That Squid will be with us in the great by and by! CONGRATS and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all of you!! Puc n Tip

OUTSTANDING!!! Thinkin that probably means ol Santa will be able see the house addresses better:fingers-crossed-emo,, meaning he probably wont be accidently giving my goodies to some :178:lop eared varmint troublemaker out there like he usually does!!

The Bird held his wrist up so Mr. Muffin could clearly see the cuffs dangling down. When he saw them, Muffin Man grabbed the Birds right wrist and pulled it down and snapped the cuffs closed around the leg of a table. The Bird was trapped once again by the tricky cuffs that belonged to the Detective and could only watch helplessly as Muffin Man ran off into the crowd in search of a lop eared varmint buddy of his who had given him the Bird many years ago. He had a great big grin on his face from knowing he was finally gonna get to give the Bird back to
