Ummmmm I have.............. But it was mine................. I guess we all knew I was not "normal"................

I wonder just how many of us jumped on those links to get tires quick.

DOH I am a day late and a dollar short again............. Dang meetings........... I will be in chat tonight to dip my toe in the water.

I did not mean the trailer into the back of the rack, I meant the rack mounted to the trailer tongue just in front of the cargo box where a cooler is normally mounted. I think it would be bad to try to plug the trailer into the back of the rack. It would be way to easy to have too much weight back there, and the trailer would then also have even more leverage to adversely influence the handling of the bike.

We have an ice cream stand up here that is so good that people will still be standing in line when it is -25°F and a howling blizzard going on.

Awesome I will be in chat tonight to see how much trouble I can get into. All those new buttons to play with.................

Us Panic over the site going down. Oh come on Don. You know how we are. Us Panic over the site going down. HELL YA WE WILL................ My fingers are crossed that there are not toooo many bumps in the road for you to deal with.

@Larry1963 there is a lot of drinking in the chat room. @Yama Mama is a great host and tarbender......... Just watch out if Don can find her whip for her. From some of the conversations I am sure there was something being smoked in the chat room. There is also a lot of food in the chat room. Then there are the toga parties, naked chat, etc......................................

The story is already posted from Pucs trip summer of 2014(?) (or was it 2013?) that was posted last winter or the winter before. My CRS is kicking in again..................

Interesting. I never thought of putting the rack back there. I went a different route where I am planning to mount the receiver rack in a receiver on the tongue to act as the cooler rack, then when I am at my destination I can leave the trailer and pop the rack back in the back of the bike and have it for day trips from base camp. But now I may have to rethink my plans. My only concern with the rack that far back is keeping the tongue weight correct.

I believe it was since this old post that @Cowpuc and Tippy while on TWEEKS, got a $500 ticket for impersonating an officer with a white shorty helmet in California. They had to get a buzz bomb and change the color quick, but still had to pay.

Yes there are some of us that sleep at night. I will be in there. I loved chatting with my VR family. I realize that even the old chat was not "private" but you had to make an effort to see what was being said in there, With the Facebook chat or the Shoutbox, everything you say is right there in the worlds face where you have to make an effort to not see it. Naked chat just is not the same out in the open........ It gets chilly........ I think that once the day wakes up there will be more people see this thread.

@Chaplain Dusty If you can make it you just might win the prize for farthest attendee. Not to mention you will meet a bunch of us northerners.

I am just a snowball throw away from there on the other side of the pond and gas is pushing back UP to the $2.00 mark. But we have great ice cream and home of Klements and Johnsonville sausages.

I only looked for 10 minutes................ But then it aint here to blind me.................

I haven't even heard of a lot of 1st gen starters actually dying, just the slow cranking when hot and people replacing them just to feel like they were not on the verge of being stranded. But I have never had it not start. I had one of the aftermarket high torque GM starters when I had the race car. The engine had so much compression that it would shatter the nose casting of the stock starter. The high torque starter had what looked like a motorcycle starter and that ran thru an additional gear reduction in a billet nose piece before it got to the flywheel. Our bikes already have a 2 (or 3?) stage gear reduction between the motor and the flywheel.

That hose set is for the VMAX, anyone know how close that is to a 1st gen Venture?

$1 USD = 79.2975 Russian Rubble.

See I told you he was gonna show up fer some dogs................. Why else would he want to know where you are.

In the USA it is by state. Some states allow you to remain anonymous and some require that your name and picture be released for advertizing.

OH oH A pic of a hot dog!!!! You're going to have a @Cowpuc show up if you're not careful.

Sounds like a great time.

Over $600 for a pair of tires? You need a new dealer. Date code is important. after 6-7 years the rubber is breaking down and getting hard which means slippery, harder rubber will also start cracking instead of flexing and could cause a blowout at the worst possible time.
