    Probably would, I use the diswasher to steam open oysters and it works fine.

    Oh yea and by the way, I've been told that I must have melted my mind in the sixties, and I don't recall anyone ever accussing me of melding my mind. I'll have you know. But, I am not a Vulcan and may not know the difference. Is this a mind meld?

    Does that mean that when you order one of those sandwiches at the Waffle House with the hamburger patty, cheese and onion on rye bread that your really ordering a patty meld and not a patty melt? My bad:doh:

    If your like me you probably use your laptop alot. Maybe sometimes while your eating southern BBQ finger foods like ribs. You know how your keyboard keys seems to get dirty and greasy. Or maybe you might leave the thing open for days and weeks at a time letting a layer of dust settle on the screen. Like I do. If so resist the urge to use a pressure washer to clean it up. This method of cleaning is highly over rated. At least for a laptop and may actually cause physical harm to this sensitive electronic device. Go figure:confused24:.....Who would have thunk it? But, that is exactly what a painting contractor did to mine at work the other day by the hands of his non english speaking hispanic pressure washer operator. This over achieving pressure washer operator in an attempt to impress the English speaking citizens of his new found country took it upon himself to go one step beyond the call of duty when pressure washing the concrete floor patio outside of my office. Evidently he thought the high wall fresh air intake grill 10 feet above the ground needed a little cleaning too so he hosed it down. Not thinking what happens to the water passing through the grill. Which happened to be the grilled opening to the fresh air intake plenum directly above my desk. My desk where my laptop was laying unsuspectingly open, on and collecting dust.....As it normally does.:bang head::bang head: I still do not understand how he knew my laptop was on the other side of that windowless wall :superman:and directly below that fresh air vent... and that it was open and dirty. But, his aim was pretty good because every drop of water managed to land on my dirty keyboard and screen, :95:missing entirely the company owner computer, walkie talkie radios and pagers laying directly alongside. Well needless to say a clean keyboard aint everything because it immediatly went blank, started humming, buzzing and rolled over dead. The good news is the contractor entertained me at Best Buy today while I got to pick out a shinney brand new laptop with all of the latest bells and whistles. He even springed for the cost of the Geek Squad doing the Vulcan mind melt routine to transfer the contents of my old hard drive to the new bigger hard drive on my new laptop computer.:mo money: The Geeks have also called to tell me that the Vulcan mind melt thing is complete and I can pick up my new internet ride anytime I wanted. So, in the morning before it gets hot I'm gonna ride the old scoot:7_6_3[1]: up to pick up my new puter. Cant wait to take her for a test ride........ Windows 7 no more Vista WOO HOOOOOO:cool10:

    Sorry for the delay in responding but a contractor accidently pressure washed my laptop the other day at work leaving me puterless. now I've hyjacked my sons delaying his homework until I can get mine replaced.

    They way mine was done was that they took a regular left side stand and rotated it to the right side. The foot part appears to be facing backwards but it works fine. The pivot point rotates on a fabricated plate that is welded on the removal section on the right side frame. The bike tends to lean a little more on the right side stand. But, unless you park with the right side leaning downhill it is not really a problem. The right side stand does not have a kickstand safety switch but that never bothered me. Another benefit of the right side stand is that you can remove the stator cover plate and the middle gear bearing cover if necessary without draining the oil while it is leaning on the right side stand.

    Yesterday while contemplating my 1st Gen to do list I realized that it was about time to do a another tear down. The todo list as it stands now: Fork seal replacement............Again Front tire replacement..........Again Probably rear tire too Avon Venoms this time Might as well replace brake pads..........Again Body part replacement customization and repair....Again Change up the paint Job............Again Intake O-ring seal leak 2 cylinders Re-synch Carbs New Diaphrams on sliders Valve clearence pad check & replace (really dreading this one but RandyR said he would help) Replaceing rear crash bars and trailer hitch with new ones new mufflers Accent lighting rewire. So, I was reiterating the list to a buddy over a happy hour drink yesterday when he offered for me to come get his 2nd Gen Midnight Venture and ride it while my bike was down. Now that's a friend for you.

    I saw one of those at Two Wheels Only in Suches N. Ga. last spring. It was a 1st gen MKII with a gold wing trunk and saddle bags, On the rear of the trunk he had cleverly arranged the badge to read Yamawing.

    Always pays to be vigilant. Glad you weren't struck by flying road debris.
