I am betting that there are 2 pins in the exact same location for Hilrider. If you watch while the pins are loading you see it appear with a normal shadow and then a few seconds later the shadow darkens. Since there are 2 balloons the shadow is twice as dark. Of course this is nothing more than a WAG on my part........ I do not see a way to search for members by the GPS coords. Moderators do have a brown pin, maybe that means that they are full of ............

I am suddenly in need of the cap for the coolant overflow bottle on my 88.

The other possibility is that they are not using a linear regulator. It may be a switching regulator which can run very cool and efficient. With linear regulators, if you need 3A output then you will have a little more than 3 A input. The extra voltage is turned into heat to be dissipated. With a linear regulator, if it can handle a 20V input, regulating to 5V, that means that the device has to dump 15V at 3A, or 45W of power as heat. That is a LOT of wasted energy. With a switching regulator, if you were to put 20 V in to get 5V out, You would only need a little under 1 amp of input to get the 3 A of output and there is very little heat generated. In radio control aircraft it is rare to see a linear regulator used any more, they just wast way to much power and are very inefficient when you need any significant output power. The only problem with a switching regulator, (You never get nuttin for free) is that they cost more to design, more to build, and if the output filtering is not done just right they can leave ripple on either the input or output side that can cause other problems. Remember some of the radio interference issues with some of the early LED driving lights?

Hey they cant be all bad, they do have a wet T shirt contest...........

From what I can tell, There is actually such a thing as Google Wallet. BUT Google Wallet is NOT an escrow service. It is an app that you put on your smart phone to keep an electronic version of your credit cads that you can use in stores and not have to carry the physical card around. This is just like the scams that use eBay Escrow services, eBay does exist, but they do not have an escrow service. Ask him for HIS contact info so that you can enter it into the "Flyin Escrow Service" to facilitate his payment. And then send the money to me,,,,,,,,I mean the "Flyin Escrow Service"....... Reading about these scams always gets me back to http://www.419eater.com, this is a website dedicated to scamming the scammers, there is some funny stuff on there as well as tips on how to do it yourself.

It sure sounds like a scam to me. But it might be fun to mess with him some..........

This is quite common. The hackers just keep hitting your email account with passwords till the account opens, they then use your email account to send out their spam. I have myself as a contact so that I will receive an email when this happens. Having invalid email addys will not slow this particular attack down, they are sending to ALL of your contacts good or bad they dont care. The fake addy will help with some of the malware driven attacks that are monitoring their activity. The good news is that this one did not attack your computer, just your email account. your computer does not even need to be turned on for this to happen. Whats bad is that Yahoo and the other free emails could stop this dead in its tracks if they wanted to. Simply by locking the account for 10 minutes if an incorrect password is entered 3 times. As is, the hackers can have their computer send many thousands of passwords per minute trying to find the one that works. With this simple change they could try 18 passwords per hour, They would never hit it.

Sure there is, Just spend $12 and make another member named, maybe, motorcycle1300. and then you can make another balloon......

Yesterday was interesting in WI, some places had 3+inches of rain, some had freezing rain, and some had over a foot of wet heavy snow. There are power outages every where. We will be happy to pack this one up and send on to the north and east,,,,,,,,,

Well now that I had a plan that will work, I started to optimize it, I have reduced the PCB down to a single layer board. This will cut cost of the board by a bunch, I can now make it at home. 75540.pdf

It should............ But I would have to spend some time looking at the wiring diagram to be sure.

Your 10 days late with this.......

Progress I have the circuit boards laid out, and some additional components on order. The PCB is only 1" wide X 2-3/8 long X 3/8 thick and will have 4 wires coming out of one end. It will not be bad to build with just 8 components, and 4 wires to solder down. The board house that I am going to use has a minimum order of 9 boards, so I may have some spares for interested parties. ASSUMING that this actually works as planned........ Warning do not try to make boards from these layouts, I have fixed a couple minor errors since I made these PDFs 75539.pdf

NO NO, its stay away from the light, fear the light......

I have also had success with a magnetic pickup tool. Some times you still need the pick to break the oil seal before the magnet will pull it out.

And her leather boots that go all the way up??

Lookin good Don Sorry I made so much work for you by giving you the lead.

Well the load resistors should be here Thursday. I am going to try something different with the load resistor. Instead of hooking it up as one resistor per turn signal as recommended, (this means 4 resistors required one at each bulb) I am going to try it with one central resistor to handle the entire flasher system for both turn signals and 4 ways. I also ordered the parts to build my "super flasher". I do not like the brake flashers for this purpose, so I am designing and building my own flasher circuit so I can tailor it to this exact purpose. The plan is to have a flasher system hooked up so that whenever the horn is blowing, all of the non HID lights on the bike will be flashing at around 6-12 Hz. This should help the poor misguided person that just cut me off, figure out where the danger is, (or make me a target, not sure which:confused24:).

I'm hoping that no news is good news....... Besides this needed a bump it was 3 pages back already......

Interesting as it is, many RSV owners prefer the VMax gears and many of the VMax people prefer the RSV gears. You could get the VMax, do the gear swap and then sill have a complete vmax to sell, or play with.

Hmmmmmm So you want RR to stay at the Oberlin but then you put your name in the hat to get away from the Oberlin............

Set the bike up with the front wheel off the ground, You can then turn the steering slowly to feel for any tight spots. The stearing should also move freely from side to side with almost no pressure on the bars. If the bearings are warn there will be a slight indent feel around center. You can then also grab the front wheel and pull it forward and back to check for play in the head bearings. Orlin, Are you sure its the bike? There are no straight roads around you. You might be trying to go straight on a twisty road.

Even better yet, If I win the raffle you can use my tent.
