  1. I've been looking at toy haulers for past year. Just can't get my head around having a scoot in bedroom smelling up the place. Plus, my Yukon will haul up to 7700 pounds and I don't like the choices Within that range. The Admiral doesn't like it at all! So plan B. A trailer with a deck to haul bike on. Two problems there: 1. Steep ramp. 2. Deck can hold about 750 pounds. Great for adventure scoots, not touring bikes. So now on plan C. A smaller motorhome and a trailer for bike. Having rented lots of class A's in the past, I'm aware of the maintenance issues.. And don't like that either... But so far that's where I'm at. As far as trucks... Do not overload your truck. You are figuring things right, @djh3. Either plan on a better truck or a smaller toy hauler. Here are some new haulers for comparison..... Get some ideas then look for use ones... http://www.besttraveltrailers.org/toy-hauler-travel-trailers-top-8-brands/ This is another thought if ramp works for touring bikes... http://www.rvtrader.com/dealers/Dakota-RV-2896752/listing/2015-K-Z-MXT-CRC210KS-115194293
  2. Pinwall doesn't have one? Give them a call... They may not have one listed. Got one for my RSV... Good shape.
  3. Agreed. Think it would look good to only fill in and paint the small oval with the HD logo. Same color as your deflectors.
  4. Well... I retired three years ago... And then helped my youngest through her last two years of college. Plus my wife of over 20 years and I are getting back together after a 4 year break... Life is good! Now we are working hard at selling her mom's properties, putting the sailboat back into shape for sailing.... and maintaining the house and scoots. Bottom line... Time and bux are in short supply. Plus Pat's back may well keep her from taking long trips with me... Sigh. I want very much to take off for a cross country ride... Been many years since I've done that on a scoot! Now it's just a matter of finding the bux and time and making the committment. Like Dion... No one around with time to make a trip with me. We shall see.... It's on my old fart bucket list!!
  5. Wondering if a P.O. put a speedo healer on your scoots. Teeny circuit board, plugs right in, let's you dial in correction. Don't think I've heard on any metric factory scoots with accurate speedos from factory...
  6. Did the Google thing. Nice picture of two old farts standing on the street admiring their scoots!! . If it wasn't so hot across the desert, I would join you and bring my own spoon...
  7. Nah...I couldn't figure out any other way to get the picture to him! I felt like an idiot posting the pic....!
  8. John... Not à problem. I posted the picture here so dragonrider could get a copy of it for the next auction. I couldn't add a pic using the PM to him. Since then, he gave me his email so post isn't necessary. Except to let all know this little remote will be in next auction for St. Jude's kids!

  12. It's nice once in a while to learn something new.... In the past few days, besides installing a new ash dump door at the cabin, re-hanging a ceiling fan (previous owner did a lousy job hanging it), I also learned how to make apple sauce and apple butter....including how to can them! Apple sauce cooking..... Apple butter cooling in the sealed jars. left overs....lots of good peel there...but I can only eat so much...groan. $10 tool that made life easier.....still had to peel and de-core the tiny apples....but this was a great help. So...what have you learned new lately?
  13. Holy Moly......that is one for the books.... 250 hp at the rear wheel...without the nitrous.....yikes!
  14. Think it means we are all bored...or boring....well same thing.
  15. I know this isn't as cool as Don's saddlebag covers....BUT... Nanci did a great job on my RSV gas cap cover.....and her shipping was faster than I was to get back home after being called away for 4 days! So Thank you, Nanci! Now I'll save my pennies for the tank bib!
  16. After reading all these great responses, I feel that my name is boring! 40 plus years in film, video and radio.... Living in Arizona..... Tried for "videoAz" as a web site many moons ago, but it was taken.... Hence videoarizona. Remember, It's a dry heat....
  17. Yeppers! You got me! Grins
  18. I'm reading this post. Mama, does this count?
  19. I have to agree, the bags look great! Glad you are back in the saddle!!
  20. OK, on a second gen, one horn is in left side of fairing, second is on right side next to the passenger foot rest. I bought a mount from one of our member vendors and mounted my Stebel behind the passenger foot rest... Wired in tandem with fairing mounted stock horn through a relay. Works like a charm. On the picture, you can see original stock horn I left on bike(not plugged in) just in front of rear exhaust pipe behind trannie cover, and the Stebel behind the same exhaust pipe, behind the passenger foot rest.
