  1. Ordered my Avons today, went with the slimmer front tire:cool10:
  2. I think Don usually sends flowers at times like this and says its from the VR group, I try to make a small donation to help offset his costs, you can do it rite on the home page. Hope I am not out of line mentioning this? Craig
  3. Yeah, its on my wish list, glad you're enjoying yours. Craig
  4. Thanks, first I've seen it, sure gets you in the mood to ride. Craig
  5. Guess it would have been too easy to just put it in the same envelope as your refund check?? Coulda saved a stamp:rotf:
  6. I was hoping for a different outcome, guess it wasnt meant to be, but I am glad you are painfree and at peace RIP MeanDog............. Craig
  7. Ditto, how is it gonna kickstart anything if it takes em 8 months to get it to ya????
  8. The more I ride it the more I love it, spent an hr in church parking lot on all types of low speed manuevers, have a better idea of the heavy steering you guys are talking about, but I was perfectly comfortable at slow speeds. I am just amazed at how smooth and solid it feels, if you want to see pics, in 2nd gen classified section, its Jr's 06, Boy that black cherry sure does shine up nice. Thanks again for the comments. Cant wait for the Maint. Day and Skid In, and if my 17yr old daughter behaves herself while we are away, just mite make a few more meet-n-eats:whistling: Craig
  9. Unfortunatly its a little far for me to ride in, but I think its a great idea, and want to Thank You for being involved, if there is a way I could help with a donation I would be happy to send one off. Thanks Craig
  10. Hey, it was her idea, think she misses riding almost as much as I do, c'mon spring
  11. Yeah totally agree with you 100%
  12. Hi Guys, Thanks for the comments, just got in from shining her up:whistling: I must say after reading all the posts on the slow speed handling of the 2nd gen, I was a little concerned about the ride home, but I have to say I really dont get it? The bike handles fine, I really had no trouble at all at slow speeds, and its got a big ass Bridgestone on the front, Had to do some fancy manuevers rite off the bat at a gas station and the bike handled beautiful, very predictable. The ride home was awesome, the bike is solid, tracks perfectly at highway speeds and you really have to keep your eye on the speedo, just purrs at about 85mph. I am only 5'5" and 165lbs but the bike seems to fit me very well, Never had heel toe shifter, so that took some getting use to, I am very happy with the bike, the pipes are a little louder than I like and I may swap them out, but it is one beautiful machine. Ended up putting about 200 miles on today, even took the wife out for a short spin, she couldnt get over all the extra room. I think I will be very happy with this bike for a long time, let the chroming begin:rotf: Craig
  13. Well I am off to pick up my new bike, its about 30f hoping it warms up alittle, I have a feeling the temps arent going to matter much on that 100 mile ride home. Really anxious to ride the 06 never rode a 2nd gen, never dropped the 1st gen, hope to keep that streak going on the new one:whistling: I will give my first impressions after the trip. Craig
  14. Must have been a very good Man, Sounds as though he gave his Son a great start in life. Thanks for reminding me of whats important. RIP Greg. Craig
  15. Thanks for the update, Sorry to hear this, we are pulling for you MeanDog, We will keep you and your family in our thoughts. Hopefully you will come thru this ok. Craig
  16. Hey Gene, is that the Harley Edition Ford:rotf: Nice lookin rig
  17. Yep I just put a brand new odessey battery in it today, fired rite up, and went for a little ride 20 miles or so, she just purred, it would be a nice bike for someone:whistling:

  24. Thanks guys, I just wanted to be sure I was still getting the balance of the warranty in this deal. Craig
  25. Hi All, I am looking at a 2006 RSv I would be the 3rd owner, will I still be able to transfer the 5 yr warranty? or is there a limit to the number of owners, or some other silly stipulation. Thanks for any help. Craig
