    Regardless of whether Ponch comes back here or not I do wish him a full recovery and the best life can offer him and Kathy. Ponch on getting well. As to problems some folks may have had at any one of the VR gatherings, wherever they may be, I can't say much of anything to change outcomes other than say stuff happens sometimes and feelings can get hurt. I do think that the majority of members will go out of their way to see that everyone has an enjoyable time and be as helpfull as possible if something comes up. Larry

    I like it too. Wonder what price range it'd be in? Larry

    I'd 2nd the two previous opinions. If you really want to tow a small trailer with the bike for those odd jobs I'd say get a much smaller trailer. Larry

    I'd do them for you but I'm south of the border as well as way to far away. finding someone Larry

    Well folks I've been a busy boy these last few weeks building some projects just for the Hannigan trikers here. Those being : 1. A lift adapter so the trike can be used with a conventional ATV motorcycle jack. It's designed & used the same as my Standard & Freestanding lift adapter I sell for the 2 wheelers. The only difference is it's longer and has a 4 point lift support location on the adapter to pick these trikes up. My Sears red jack worked just fine for picking up Ragtop69gs / Jay & Jeanies trike. 2. An auxiliary gas tank system. It will be a complete bolt on system complete with everything needed in a kit form. The kit will consist of a 5.25 gallon tank, electric fuel pump w/ in-line filter, a fuel shut off solenoid, 30amp relay, in-line fuse holder & fuse, a custom made stainless steel switch mount and waterproof rocker switch, wiring harnesses with soldered connections & shrink tube terminals, hoses & clamps as required, a polished stainless steel flip top gas cap with stainless screws, and a full set of instructions with pictures for the install. The tank is made of 16 gauge steel & will be pressure tested as well as sealed using Caswell gas tank sealer. 3. A hitch assembly using heavy wall 1 1/4" tubing. Pics and more info to follow, Larry

    It's probably not needed. Run a few hundred to a thousand miles on it, then pull the spark plugs to see what they look like. I wouldn't do anything to the air intake either except put in a K&N filter. The bike gets plenty of air as is. If anything you could bump up the pilots one size to enrichen the bottom end a bit. Doing that will also help on those cold morning starts. That is how I have my carbs set up. That's my Larry

    The trailer looks even better with all the trim & lights back on it. Very Very good job Rick Larry

    Yep you've had your share of troubles today but you also got quite a bit done too. Hopefully tomorrow you'll have completed your upgrades. Larry

    Happy B-Day Kevin. Wishing a great day and an upcoming riding season. Larry

    I've installed the AudioVox cruise control on at least a half dozen bikes over the years. None on a 1st gen thou but see no reason you couldn't either as there's plenty of places under the fairings to mount the servo and controler. Larry

    Another thing to keep in mind is being sure what is being tied down is secured good. I have seen where bundled jackets have slipped and fell off of pillions and getting caught up in wheels. Larry
  18. Carbon_One
    Maybe you can get the whole part from a salvage yard, say Pin Wall cycles who advertise on the home page here? Larry

    Peace to Shirley's sister now that she no longer is suffering. Prayers for Rick, Shirley and family

    I hope you also reported him to PayPal. They may be interested in taking him down if he's running a scam using their name and partial links. Larry

    What ya think Jay. Maybe a supprise visit to the Cougar? Larry
  22. Carbon_One
    Yep a very good buy for sure. Thou the shipping may seem a bit on the high side I'd bet it's about as fair as you'll get in todays world. The shipping companies are constantly adding more & more to their prices with those fuel surcharges. Each bag box is a pretty good size too which increases costs. Still the bottom line is you got oneheck of a deal. Larry

    Ya that's what I thought too when Carl was awarded Moderator staus. Somebodys got to keep those Canadian trouble makers in line. Carl is a fine choice IMHO. Larry

    I'm speaking for myself now that you'll certainly be missed this year but I assure you everyone here will feel the same. Looking forward to 2013 when you get back to visiting us all again. Larry
