  1. He did not specify a year, so Oct 15 is only 11-1/2 months away.
  2. I just ignore the leaves. It will not be long before a good wind comes and then they are all gone.
  3. Well I'm feeling much better now. Done with the pain pills, just some discomfort left. Go back to the the surgeon on Friday to see when he will release me back to work and having fun. Today I went back to the cardiologist, He referred me to a more special specialist. We shall see.
  4. I tried to use advanced search to find one of my old threads. I was searching for "resistor" in a thread started by me. Advanced search finds nothing. Regular search did find it but it but it found all threads by anyone with "resistor" in them I finally found mine on page 4 of looking thru all of the posts. IS advanced search not working yet? or is there something where it only searches threads since the change? Or have I taken toooo many pain pills again.......
  5. I don't think the search function is working correctly yet. Here is the thread; www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?77042
  6. Does it do this at crising speed or just at a stop? It is fairly common to see this when stopped and the engine at idle. When idling, the Stator is at a very low output level and so when the turn signals illuminate the extra draw on the electrical system is causing a slight voltage drop in the charging system. That is why the rest of the lights go dim. This is nothing to worry about. Now if this is happening whil the engin is at cruising speed, then it may be the beginings of an electrical problem on the bike. This could be anything from a dirty / corroded connection to a stator or Regulator/Rectifier (RR) that is on the way out.
  7. But you know I will get blamed for it.....
  8. Were you in Chicago? That would be normal driving.........

    So??????

    I was told it might be to dangerous to go up the hill to turn it off..........
  10. I told you it was coming...........
  11. Leave him alone, he is busy hanging cool banners......
  12. Nice!!!
  13. I have no choice. in order to fit a little more than 8 feet of bike into an 8 foot shed I have to turn the steering full right as it hitd the corner of the shed. So it is just habit that I always turn the steering right. I don't even know if the steering lock works on my bike. I know they say you are supposed to drink your alcohol, but I always eat mine.

    Normal

    If you go somewhere that the weirdos of this site can not go, you will be awful lonely.......
  15. Welcome aboard
  16. It is there for me..... You may need to make the window wider to see it.

    So??????

    yup:snow2:
  19. I did a thread somewher on my comversion. with values and P/Ns I just got home from hospitl and do not trust memory yet to give specifics000. Self cancle is in the stock flasher and uses both time and distance. distance is read from the speedo. any afermarket will not read the speedo for distance.
  20. BFH should get it to turn off...............
  21. OWWWWWWWW! Well i seem to hjave sighns of life post op. they sent me home with some good drugs..... I will try to get on chit tonit. no responsibl fer what i say.
  22. A couple of things. 1. In most areas it is illegal to have amber running lights to the rear. Amber is for front only. I have read about some people dying the amber turn signal lenses to red to make it legal. I never tried it so I do not know if or how well it would work. 2. Always match the color of the LED to the color of the lens. NEVER use a white LED behind a colored lens. 3. I replaced all of my brake running and turn bulbs with the 45 LED towers from SuperBrightLEDs. They are all much brighter than the incandescent and there is excellent contrast between brake and running. They are not cheap, but are worth every penny. 4. I am not sure on the electrical differences in the flasher circuit between your 84 and my 88. on mine if I went with a LED friendly flasher I would also give up the self canceling. I went wit just 2 load resistors, one for left and one for right. everything on the bike works as it should. 5. If You do LED brake/tail light, you will have to jumper the CMU to stop it from always indicating a bulb out. 6. I have my license plate lit with the red light from the LEDs. it is suposed to be white light, but so far after one year I have not been stopped.
  23. It worked for me to this morning.
  24. Mama, you bailed to fast last night. There was a good crowd. I hope you can sneak away from the ghosts and goblins for a while. If I wake up I will try to be on tonight.
