    What Picture??:confused24:

    So who has been running around taking pics of my GFs???

    I have a 1st gen now. There may never be a need to get another bike in this lifetime.

    OUCH! That's a bummer there Bubber. What happened to make your camper tip over on its side? If you polish it then you have to either repolish several times a year or get it clear coated so that it does not oxidize every couple of weeks.

    It has snowed every day this month so far and from 18 straight days of snow we got a whooping total of 8 inches, most of that in one chunk yesterday. As I mentioned above, I would rather have the snow than the cold.

    I would think that it would be no different than loaning your car to someone and a passenger getting hurt. It is your insurance that will get your sons portion of the bill.

    Do you remember who it is or if he still does?

    I was more planning to have the wheel wells set into the side of the box. The bottom of the box will stay on the trailer and it will have a depth of around 2 feet and a length of around 8 feet. I may just narrow the box to 48" so that it is a simple 1 sheet of plywood for the floor, with wheel wells set into the box just a little on each side and small fenders left on the outside of the box. I will NOT be carrying anything heavy, just big and bulky. My other plan was to find a used Yakima Skybox 21 to slap on the trailer. I think that it would just barely fit my needs, and be a whole lot easier (and better looking) than ME building a box.

    Thanks all. That gets me closer to what I need to know for designing this monster. What I was really after was the overall width across the fenders. so 6 3/8 + 6 3/8 + 40 = 52.75 total width across the fenders, or it means that I can build my box up to 52.75 inches wide without increasing the width of the trailer.

    Sounds more to me like the Beav has simply found a good friend and riding buddy, that just happens to be female, and easy on the eyes.

    Hmmmm At this point it seems that the general consensus is that the real Super Bowl is being played at 3:00 this Sunday.

    Well I'm glad someone likes this winter. Here it was predicted to have warmer than normal and lots of snow. So far it has been way colder than normal and way below normal snow. I would much rather have the snow than the cold.

    As long as we are requesting new smilies, how about... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v387/jonathanwong/thumb_thisthreadisworthlesswithoutp.gif This will save me from having to keep inserting this... http://www.bloodydecks.com/forums/attachments/costa-rica-panama/121054d1231181462-coral-star-dec-26th-jan-1-thread_is_worthless.jpg

    For those that have a HF trailer. Per the specs the bed is 40 x 49 inches. Am I correct to assume that it is 40" wide? Can someone that has one give me the total dimension from outside of fender to outside of fender? Has anyone flipped the axle to the top of the springs just to lower the CG? I can not find any car topper that fills all of my needs so I am planning to build one. I will incorporate the wheel wells into the box that I am building. Dang this will be a lot of work between now and MD. Yes I will post pics as soon as there is something to post pics of.

    Tickets for the Packer Bear game are expected to bring more than the Super Bowl tickets. On the radio this morning they said that the cheapest end zone tickets are going for $550 and the good seats up to $6,000 EACH. Soldier Field is actually closer to Milwaukee than Lambo Field. Unless of course the Pack makes it to the SB, then all I can say is look out TX, da cheese heads will be a comin.

    Well Steve, ya know he is from the other side of the border so maybe it got lost in the translation and he meant 6 meters of ice.:stickpoke: That would make a better fish story. PS I heard that some of the cold is headed this way, You just keep it up there to make ice for the IRT. We have plenty of ice here already.

    Looks like the birds are getting their wings clipped. Next week Pack @ bears. I hope they have plenty of bandages stretchers.
  18. Flyinfool
    The true brawl will be if there should be a Packers Bears game next week. I think that they will beat each other up so bad that neither of them will stand a chance in the SB. If the birds should win in bearland, then next week will just be another week of bird hunting for the Pack. But the birds keep getting smaller every week.
  19. Flyinfool
    I noticed that all of the bird watchers left at halftime. Bob Make that 2 dead birds. 1 to go.

    Now this I want to see

    That "extra device" looks like it might be a capacitor, If it is a capacitor (which could be used as a filter) It is hooked up in a way that it is doing nothing at all. As far as the blue and white/red wire...

    Yes the upgrade can be done but is very expensive. First question; Is this bike new to you? Are you getting the power out of it that is already there? What speeds are you shifting at? It is very common for new owners of these bikes to complain about lack of power, usually it is because they are trying to ride it like a Harley. If you are not hitting the rev limiter, your not making power.
  23. Flyinfool
    As much as I would like to see the Packers take it all. Falcons are using the strategy that worked for Denver the last time the packers were in the SB. Falcons - Pats in the SB, Pats take it all.

    FWIW In applications that require the most extreme reliability for the military, things like control or flight functions on aircraft, the military does not allow solder, except in very special cases. A properly crimped connection is far more reliable than even a proper solder joint (few of us know how to solder properly) in a vibration environment. I have been crimping connections on my vehicles for 35 years and never had a joint fail. I have repaired many solder joints on other peoples vehicles. I have used those blue connectors in a pinch, I fill it with dielectric grease before inserting the wires, make sure it is the right size for the wires being connected, Then thoroughly wrap it in a good quality electrical tape.
