Sticking like glue is a wonderful thing. That is the most important characteristic to me. Wearing a long time is a distant second.

No, it wasn't me. Those were the guys on the football team!

That company was recently bought by Google. They have bought many companies that are building robots. The way of the future as they see it I suppose. One company they bought in the UK insisted on Google having a robot ethics committee as part of the buy out or so I read.

I read that Shinko bought their bike tire technology from Yokohama. Yokohama doesn't make bike tires any more.

The old saying I remember is, "He who makes no mistakes, makes nothing."

Lots of them for sale. If you still want one, I'm sure you can find a good deal.

I bought a $20 infrared temp measuring device from radio shack this past Christmas for a stocking stuffer. It seemed to work.

Just wait until they learn to kick back!

When I bought my 85 Kawasaki ZN700, it only had 1,053 miles on it. The oe had passed and his nephew tried to clean the carbs and get it running. It was running ragged on 3 cylinders when I bought it. Turned out to be a completely dead plug. I'm sure they were the original 24 year old plugs but they were low miles! Ha! A bottle of Valvoline complete Fuel system cleaner in a tank of gas and new plugs and it runs like a champ.

How many miles are on the bike?

It may not be anything to worry about but I would worry the high voltage spikes would damage something electrical.

Takes a real man to admit his mistakes! Thanks for posting. It might keep me from doing the same thing.

Water cooled or air cooled, the same amount of heat is coming off the engine and if it isn't diverted away from the rider, heat will be a comfort issue. The engine will run cooler but not the passenger. Police depts. buying air cooled Harleys to tool around the cities is ridiculous. Gotta keep-em moving to cool them. Then there is that story in the news in Miami when I was there of a city motorcycle cop trying to catch a couple of sport bikes on his Harley and of course crashed the Harley and hurt himself. Idiocy!

Only 49! So sad. What ended his journey?

Chain Saw!!! The most dangerous tool ever invented!

A V-twin is much cheaper to manufacture and that is what seems to be the preferred design. I've read that a V4 is very expensive to manufacture, more than a straight four. To me this will just make the Goldwing more attractive or maybe even a BMW. Obviously my opinion doesn't count though. I still buy rear drive cars too and the choices are slim.

This one is priced a little higher with lower miles and may be worth a few bucks more. http://appleton.craigslist.org/mcy/4966025830.html

That price is about average retail according to nada. Take the photos of the issues you have noticed and try to bargain if you want it. It's a beautiful color but you are going to have to spend a few bucks on it or so it appears. There are better deals out there but maybe not the color you want.

Show that photo to the dealer-bargaining chip!

Most kids always have excuses for their failures. Kinda reminds me of our prez. I agree that you should not contact your agent. He won't help, but will make a note of it that will be held against you. If you can't document conversations any other way, write down everything that was said with dates and keep a file.

Hope with time it will heal and be normal.

Up is RESERVE. Down is ON. Towards the front is OFF.

The one recommended in the tech section looks different from the NAPA thermostat and is $5.99 at Advance Auto.
