    While you'll probably end up as busy as ever, now at least you have the option of choosing what matters to you most. Enjoy your new found freedom. Larry

    I'll probably go on Sunday as well since I'm doing a part swap with Randy. Larry

    WOW. Looks like Detroit after a snowstorm before the plows come out. Those cars will have some serious corrosion in due time. Larry

    Sad to read of you guys going thru these tough times. I came thisclose to being in your shoes back in 06. It took me a year of struggling with no job before I could see some light at the end of the tunnel. Prior to that I too was considering selling my bike. Bottom line, do what you have to do. There's always other bikes to be had. Larry

    Bet Snarly Bill would give ya a run for your money with his Cushman. My first 2 wheeler was a Allstate scooter.

    Nope. I'm good on the list now folks. But if anyone thinks that they weren't on it and want to be, then sure send out a hello. Larry

    Thanks everyone. Both those who contacted me and responder here at VR. I did find my list of contacts buried in the new pc when I had my old pc's files copied. Just had to find that list and do a transfer to the new Outlook 2010 program. Larry

    I have used AVG Free in the past as well as Norton. Due to having to replace my pc over the weekend I got Trend Micro antivirus + as part of the pc package I bought. We'll see how it goes. If not happy with this then I'll use AVG Antivirus & Internet Security or maybe Kaspersky or maybe Microsoft Security Essentials. While I have used Norton's Symantec in the past on an older pc it had a big footprint as others here noted. This new pc has at minumin 4 times or more as much memory so the Norton vervion is probably ok too. Larry

    Ok folks last week my pc crashed and I had to replace it with a new tower. I had a Outlook 2003 program on it for my e-mails. Due to replacing the pc tower I had to upgrade to Outlook 2010. (no cd disc for the Outlook 2003 program). So now I'm starting back to 0 on my contact list. If you want me to have your e-mail ady then send me a short note with your address and I'll put ya in my address book. Here's my address -- lskeels@wowway.com Same one that's in my profile info here at VR. Thanks, Larry

    The Little Guy trailer might be OK for a triked RSV but even then it'd be quit a heavy load to be behind you. Like Doc says more wear and tear on clutches & brakes. Just pulling my small teardrop trailer at 300 lb + load is all I ever want behind me. For a small car or truck I think that Little Guy would be great. Larry

    I too had broken tabs early on so what I did was use a piece of 1/8" welding rod with a flat washer welded on the ends. One end attaches to the spot where the fairing bracket is and the other end goes to the speaker mounting screw. On another note I found recently that the outer fairing was starting to develope some cracks around where a couple of the washers held the fairing to the metal bracket. My fix for that was to use some thin brass stock between the fairing and washered screws. The brass was easyly bent to conform to the fairings curve. Doing this will spread out the load from the screws over a larger area, preventing more damage being done. Also used some expoxy to repair the cracks. Larry

    PayPal on the way Karl & Abby. Hoping that life for you both will take a turn for the better sooner then later. Merry Christmas friend. Larry

    Sure am happy for you Annie. Enjoy your summer. Larry

    For the under bag rails? 7/8" is what I measured. Larry

    That's because I haven't ever offered any for sale here in the classifieds. As Rickardracing said I did build one for him & his brother's venture. I do intend to get some built sometime soon (probably after Christmas) as I want to build up welding jigs for them first, so stay tuned . Also I haven't decided to build a conventional hitch or a hidden style or both. Maybe some input here will guide me in what most folks would prefer. Larry

    I too wish a Merry Christmas to Don & Eileen, as well as to the entire VR family here. May all have a wonderfull & safe New Year as well. Larry
