Very nice job.. Looks great. Makes one proud to know they achieved what they set out to do. I can sense a few smiles on your face right now!!

I cant get mine parked long enough to put it on a stand..

That could have cost you the house...........Your safety ID tag is a good one:thumbsup2: Lock out/ tag out...

...................

Still dangerous, but a lot safer than using a two wheel....

I cant take a photo....... until I find the air box...

Just my opinion here... but I would think your pushing the limit if you are deciding to pull that trailer with your bike.. One time is all it would take for you to be in a situation where you had to brake hard and that thing will push you down the road uncontrollably. Yes, the tongue weight and trailer weight are within the "so called" allowable parameters, however the amount of force would be way out of the limits of safety Two key points to ponder in making your decision: Force is the mass of the object multiplied by its acceleration (http://cramster-image.s3.amazonaws.com/definitions/mech-26-eq-1.gif). The direction of the force determines the direction in which the object moves Read more about force here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force Hope this helps you make a safe decision..

(quote) you might consider THIS ONE. Just my observation here, but this lift look "kind-a thin" and appears that it would need a balance brace so it would not tip over. Maybe I am wrong, but it sure looks it to me.

If I can get it working for just a few dollars I probably will. If not it will be replaced. Dang, and here I am in MS.. working... If only I was off (like I was) and in Huntsville, you would have a visitor to take it off your hands if you decided to replace it....

this is my opinion now, but a large foot peg only has one row of rubber where as a dually has two rows (upper & lower) rows of rubber...

The spelling.............??? this is my opinion now, but a large foot peg only has one row of rubber where as a dually has two rows (upper & lower) rows of rubber...

Age is taking a grasp huh........... My best friend has one that looks just like it.. Nice bike!!

Dennis, Im sure you may have thought of this but I don't think it would be that hard of a job to remove that non working hydo-pump and take it to a local hydraulic repair place Maybe they could fix it / bleed it for you and you may be back in lift business for around 50 to 100 bucks v/s a new lift. There are (4) hydraulic pump repair places just north of Lexington, all look like they are in the vicinity of each other on Georgetown rd (Hwy 25) out of Lexington. Power Train appears to be a good place to try. 900 Nandino Boulevard Lexington, KY 40511 Get directions ‎ (800) 999-6529 or: Applied Industrial Tech Inc 1111 Majaun Road Lexington, KY 40511 Get directions ‎ (859) 252-8426

Heck, that looks like Beer30's hair...................

Joe, By what you are explaining I do feel it is the ignition switch. However, remove your gas tank and check out this connector on your bike. It goes to your ignition switch.. see if your connector is burnt like mine was (See photos of connector in link). http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=32359

disconnect the relays you installed and see what happens..

Nothing like cleaning up broken glass in the snow...(or ice).... Been there, done that too!! Wish I had one of those old metal milk racks they carried the bottles in..

(quote) - The Ins adjuster brought his own contractor This answered my theroy as soon as I read it. So I have to ask you.....if you ever asked yourself this question: Why in the world would an insurance adjuster bring his own contractor to my house without coming by first by himself to assess the damages, and then explain to you that there are some concerns he has and he is not that well experienced in, and would like to contact a contractor (or have you contact one of your own) and set up a meeting at your house with all parties to go over those items that may be out of the adjusters scope / knowledge... I would call 2 to 3 contractors and request estimates. You insurance company doesnt even need to know you are doing this. Then contact an attourney and give him COPIES of your 2 /3 estimates and ask him to contact your insurance company..Ask him to also contact the drivers insurance company for the credible evidence they have in regards to the drivers health and root cause of the accident. Was a drug test taken? Blood work taken at the hospital (if the driver even went there). The blood test results could prove DUI or drugs.......and then again the driver could be diabetic... If his insurance wont cover the costs due to him being diabetic, then why in the world did they give him vehicle insurance in the first place....(oh, just to take his money....)

John, You just got to have some better luck come your way.. Here's to wishing you well my friend and a whole new year of luck and better health..!

Guess that discribes me...I'm a 1st gen...cold blooded...

Dont feel bad Mike ....but thanks!!!! I myself and many others have posted stuff thinking this would be a good subject, only to turn around and imediately deleate it...
