  1. And at the pond monster motel there may just be some other culinary treats for the after riding hours snacking pleasure...... Rstacy is probably the only one on this site that understands what I am talking about. But a new tradition is about to be released onto the VR.org community. And I am certain that this will not be available at the Oberlin or QI. It is my own secret recipe.
  2. ...
  3. Check with your state DMV. Some vehicles the plate stays with the vehicle and some you keep the plates. What you have in your bill of sale looks good except you need to add the VIN number and describe all parts that are included that are not part of the bike. I would also ad a time of sale. Add 2 signature lines, one for you and one for the buyer. Make 2 copies and you and the buyer sign both copies so you each have a signed copy of the same thing. The deal does not have to be done at the DMV, once the title is signed and exchanged for "CASH ONLY" (do not accept anything but CASH unless you know the buyer) it is no longer your problem. If you are going to conduct the deal at the DMV then you will be responsible to get the bike there and yourself back home after the deal. Do NOT let the buyer ride the bike there while it is still yours. Do not let the buyer take the bike for a test ride. If he wrecks it, it is now your problem. You have no idea if he really has the skill to handle a bike this big. If the state does not require you to leave the plates on the bike, DO NOT leave the plates on the bike. I once sold a car and 6 months later it was involved in a hit and run, the police tracked it back to me via the VIN number, I handed the LEO the recipt that said I sold it and he said thank you and was on his way. The guy that bought the car never registered or plated it.
  4. There's no one there. To late again.
  5. Yup, sounds like she got grandpa wrapped around her little finger.........
  6. I sure wish some of the loud pipes around here would get charged with something. There are a lot of bikes running straight pipes with NO baffling at all. On a quiet night you can literally hear them for miles and the windows rattle in their frames when they go past the house. While terrorism is a little extreme of a charge, they should be charged with something.
  7. My only concern with the Delrin motor mounts would be temperature. Delrin is rated for -20° to 180°F. The engine has a 190°F thermostat. I have no idea how hot the motor mounts may get in real life. Heck I ain't even sure WHERE the motor mounts are. Never looked for them. Does someone have a way to measure the temps of the motor mounts after a good run on the highway? If not, and if I get the bike back on the road next week, I will try to check some temps in the area of the mounts. These temps would be in 40° air temps so they may be hotter in the summer and southern heat.
  8. Steve You/we needed video. I would have gone back for the battery........ Just grab them firmly by the neck and they calm right down..........
  9. The local rag may have let the word out since the ran an article about the incident that they got from the police reports. So the jerks may know to lay low for a while. This weekend I will get the SD card out of the camera to see what the pics look like. In theory the SD card is good for 10 days of pics at 1 per minute. But since no one knows the camera is there I have to do it in the dark when no one is around. I have it mounted 24 feet up in a tree overlooking the whole parking lot. The pics are not great but they were taken at 10PM. The cam is right at the top of the ladder.
  10. Now you all done it. My membership was going to expire this weekend. This reminded me to renew for another year. So now you all have to put up with me for another whole year plus a couple of days. You had your chance to be rid of me, but you messed up with this thread....... Thanks Don for all you do to make this site great. I used to run a site so I know just how much work it really is.
  11. Drat, somehow I missed that one. Never-mind........
  12. A few miles ain't far enough, they could be coming back home. Many critters are good at that. Hit them with a drop of food color on there back to tell if it is the same ones you are catching again.
  13. OK the Icons seem to be a mystery here. There is a grey panel just below that flashing red light. When you first turn the key to the run position does a series of icons light-up in that grey window? After they have cycled thru, do any of them remain lit?
  14. Dreamer......
  15. Did you remind him that that he don't need a bike to come on here? We can pick on him with or without a bike.....
  16. I did a winter M&E in march. You could plan a summer one.
  17. We can help you find something to "fix".
  18. Now come on guys. Yer gonna make me blush..... Just glad I could help.
  19. Gettin old???
  20. Before you start replacing anything, I would start by cleaning all of the connections. This would include; the 3 wire connector between the stator and RR the connector coming out of the RR the battery terminals the other end of the ground wire. Even if the connections LOOK clean, take them apart and clean them anyhow.
  21. Poor Baby..............
  22. The Bull Frog Inn may have better bug control, Butt the Pond Monster Motel has better BIG game hunting.......... Or so I have been told.....
  23. Electrically the 55W is not an issue. The stock headlight is 60W. I have no clue on the legal issue of 35W vs 55W. But I was thinking of upgrading to the 55W ballast, they claim 40% more light. Now I did notice that my system voltage became more stable while sitting a a red light idling with the brake on. that 25W savings made a big difference in idle voltage. I will also be adding 2 35W HID driving lights. Since I got the HID headlight, I can not even tell when my driving lights are on.
  24. Well since you started it......... This Eagle may be smarter than any 1st gen rider, but any first gen rider is still smarter than any 2nd gen rider. Doesn't say much for the 2nd gens.......
  25. Is there a manufacture date on the nameplate or the title? That will give you the best idea of just how old they are. I am sure the dealer knows what the model year is, it would have to go on the paperwork for the title. If they are that old, check the date codes on the tires. They may already need new skins. Make him a low ball offer, see just how bad he wants to move them. According to this website http://www.cycle-mate.com/trailers/ the list price on a CM2000 is $1595.00. looks like its the old mark it way up and then give a sale price that is still more than MSRP. Unless of course it has a LOT of accessories that are not visible in the pic.
