    I changed my iPod name to Titanic. It's syncing now. When chemists die, they barium. Jokes about German sausage are the wurst. A soldier who survived mustard gas and pepper spray is now a seasoned veteran. I know a guy who's addicted to brake fluid. He says he can stop any time. How does Moses make his tea? Hebrews it. I stayed up all night to see where the sun went. Then it dawned on me. This girl said she recognized me from the vegetarian club, but I'd never met herbivore. I'm reading a book about anti-gravity. I can't put it down. I did a theatrical performance about puns. It was a play on words. They told me I had type A blood, but it was a Type- O. A dyslexic man walks into a bra. PMS jokes aren't funny, period. Why were the Indians here first? They had reservations. Class trip to the Coca-Cola factory. I hope there's no pop quiz. Energizer battery arrested. Charged with battery. I didn't like my beard at first. Then it grew on me. How do you make holy water? Boil the hell out of it! Did you hear about the cross-eyed teacher who lost her job because she couldn't control her pupils? When you get a bladder infection, urine trouble. What does a clock do when it's hungry? It goes back four seconds. I wondered why the baseball was getting bigger. Then it hit me! Broken pencils are pointless. I tried to catch some fog. I mist. What do you call a dinosaur with an extensive vocabulary? A thesaurus. England has no kidney bank, but it does have a Liverpool . I used to be a banker, but then I lost interest. I dropped out of communism class because of lousy Marx. All the toilets in New York 's police stations have been stolen. Police have nothing to go on. I got a job at a bakery because I kneaded dough. Haunted French pancakes give me the crepes. Velcro - what a rip off ! Cartoonist found dead in home. Details are sketchy. Venison for dinner? Oh deer ! Earthquake in Washington obviously government's fault. I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. Be kind to your dentist. He has fillings, too.

    There is a trick to making very strong threads in wood. 1. Drill and tap for a HeliCoil of the correct size. 2. Soak the threads with thin cyanoacrylate adhesive. 3. After the glue dries, run the tap thru again just to clean things up. 4. Install the HeliCoil. I have used this method to bolt some very highly stressed parts together. Try it on some scrap wood. You can do this without the HeliCoil too, but it is slightly less strong. It is the CA glue binding all of the wood fibers back together that were abused by the tap that makes this work.

    I started out with autocad 2 and still use a little Autocad in the latest flavors for legacy drawings. For 3D I also have used Mechanical desktop, Iron cad, CadKey, Solidworks, Inventor. They all have their good and bad points.

    It would not be the first time I caused UFO reports............ If I had a bigger trailer I could bring a UFO with me....... I have the Morgan CarbTune. No fluids to suck up but looks like a mercury set.

    They are out for testing.

    I do have mine set up with the flashing red LED from Radio Shack P/N 276-312. It is setup so that the LED is only on when the headlight is off. It is bright enough to be noticeable in daylight. You just need to use a SPDT switch (3 terminal). Fused power goes to the center terminal, The LED goes to one of the outside terminals and the HID goes to the other outside terminal. Very simple and I don't have the extra light to look at at night.

    I have two sets of the Bad Boy horns on my '88. I mounted them to the rear crash bars facing forward. They are connected thru a relay using the stock horn button to activate the relay. I started out with just one Bad Boy and added the second one a year later. At first I left the stock horns hooked up but could not hear them at all over the dual Bad Boys (I could still hear them when I had just one Bad Boy) so I took off the stockers and mounted my driving lights there.

    I will bring my wiring kit. I doubt that I will have time to get all of my electrical work done before then. I may need help figuring out where all to put the 1,000+ LEDs that I have. I can also bring my Carb tune if anyone wants to do a carb sync. Of course I'll bring some snacks to share.

    Fortunately, Wisconsin does not require plates on trailers under 3,000 GVW. YET!!! STOP giving them ideas. It will be interesting to see if I have any issues this summer pulling an unplated trailer thru states that have plates.

    LEDs on the trailer will not bother the Flasher on the bike. Incandescents on the trailer can bother some flashers on the bike. Ideal is to have an isolator installed on the bike so that it will never matter what the trailer lights are.

    Boy this was a slow developing, and long drawn out fart. I remember your PM from back in October. But I do really like it.

    Nice shade of green.......... There is no magic pressures to use, the pressure and mixing will vary by the type of paint AND by the equipment you have. experiment on a piece of scrap, Got any 2nd gen parts laying around?
  16. Flyinfool
    That could work as long as you start the bike imediatly after turning the key. I still prefer my switch, relay and "hey idiot turn the light on" idiot light.
  17. Flyinfool
    Yup! That is/was the battery probe fix. You need to get a new resistor and hook it back up or you will have the stupid red light on the dash yelling at you forever. Don't crimp the resistor to the wires, solder it and cover the connections and the resistor with more than one layer of shrink tubing. Should be good to go for another 20 years.

    I use the Bars Leak Rear main seal "repair" in my truck. I have to add it every other oil change. With the bars leak the truck uses less than 1 quart of oil between changes. This the oil consumption that it had since the day I bought it new. Without the bars leak it leaks 2 quarts out the rear main seal between changes. Very messy but does help to keep the bottom of the truck from rusting. I know it should not be leaking yet, it only has 300K on it. Someday I'll get real ambitious and replace the rear seal. It does not sound like this would help your problem at all.

    Only one sheet? Are you working the wrong muscles at the gym? Or just milking it?

    There are pics in this thread somewhere. She was at a MC event somewhere once. also mentioned in this thread.

    Glad he stopped. I have used a combination of the weave, hi beam and dual Bad Boys and so far that has always worked. Which helped most I do not know, I also do not want to experiment to find the part that has no effect.

    I hope you both feel better soon. I am not looking to point fingers or blame here just trying to learn from others misfortune so that I do not have to learn the same lesson some day. But I have to wonder, What causes a tank slapper to happen in the first place? Is it possible that there was some hidden damage from the tire issue a couple of weeks ago?

    I was thinking about painting mine a bright yellow on the plastic and everything else black. I never even thought about the engine, That would look good to be black also. Dang more work to do. As far as the clear coat goes, yes I would use a clear coat, there are flat and semigloss clear coats available for things like the ford mustang that has that flat black panel down the center of the hood. I used a flat automotive clear coat to refinish a wood gun stock, it looks great and is very durable.

    I don't know if there is such a thing as a helmet to fit a 5 month old child.
