Barry I am glad to hear that all down there are fine and look forward to seeing you on Sunday.

That is not a hard choice for me as I only have an old $100.00 Remington. :rotfl:

Congrats Bill enjoy the retirement and the truck.

I haven't been on a horse in over 43 years but if you can talk Jay into the sporting clays I will bring my 1100 and a few boxes of shells.

Sorry to hear of his passing.

I have seen pics of his bike and all I can say is WOW.

Most automotive paint stores cam mix any color you want and put in spray can for you.

You may be right about that but a lot of states have emission inspections. If they start doing motorcycles the Harleys with the kits won't be on the road.

I saw this on another forum. I do not know how true it is. H-D CEASES SALES OF PERFORMANCE DEVICES THAT ADD TO AIR POLLUTION Without conceding, Harley-Davidson will pay $15 million in fines and penalties to settle a federal lawsuit brought by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) accusing the American motorcycle-maker of selling illegal performance devices that increase pollution. Under terms of the settlement on Thursday, August 19, 2016 Harley is to stop selling its "Screamin' Eagle" Pro Super Tuners by August 23, and to buy back and destroy all such tuners in stock at its dealerships. H-D must also deny warranty claims if owners continue to use the "illegal devices." The consent decree resolves government allegations that Harley-Davidson sold roughly 340,000 "super tuners" since 2008 that, once installed, cause motorcycles to emit higher amounts of certain air pollutants than what the Milwaukee-based manufacturer certified to the EPA. According to the EPA, the modified settings increase power and performance, but also increase the motorcycles’ emissions of hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides. Harley did not admit liability, and said in a statement it disagrees with the government's position arguing that the devices were designed and sold to be used in "competition only." The Motor Company said the settlement represents "a good faith compromise with the EPA on areas of law we interpret differently, particularly EPA's assertion that it is illegal for anyone to modify a certified vehicle even if it will be used solely for off-road/closed-course competition." An EPA spokesman said that the vast majority of these tuners were used on public roads, and the sale of such "defeat devices" violates the federal Clean Air Act. Harley was also accused of selling more than 12,600 motorcycles that were not covered by an EPA certification that ensures a vehicle meets federal clean air standards. "Given Harley-Davidson’s prominence in the industry, this is a very significant step toward our goal of stopping the sale of illegal after-market defeat devices that cause harmful pollution on our roads and in our communities," said John Cruden, head of the Justice Department's environmental and natural resources division. The EPA has been investigating after-market part emission issues for more than five years. In 2012, Suzuki Motor Corp paid an $885,000 fine to EPA for selling 25,458 ATVs and dirt bikes because they were built to allow for the installation of an after-market part that increased horsepower and emissions.

I put a new tank bib on from Ace High Leather. Looks Great. Then road to work and took the long way home.

That is exactly the kind of place I want to live. Shame I can't hit the lottery.

Now is this before or after you cleaned the shop?

Naw if he is headed any place it is east. With all the talk from Bob about ridin & eatin the Puc in goin to the WNYR.

Don't you just love automated systems. :Laugh:

You mean you had words with the dirtbag? I would not have said a word but he would have been wearing my helmet on the back side of his head. People like him deserve more than they actually get, and not in a good way.

Well Nanci did it again with a top notch bib for my bike. Thanks Nanci you do GREAT work. :banana::banana: http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh64/slowrollwv/DSCF3120_zpsxx4nqdui.jpg http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh64/slowrollwv/DSCF3118_zpskhcyxawa.jpg http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh64/slowrollwv/DSCF3119_zpscoz23ydb.jpg

No Didn't loose the wife. We have just came to a conclusion that if ant thing happened to the RSV that we would get one or the other but I will be thinking hard on the Slingshot.

A lot of people use Ride on to seal nail holes.

I was very close to buying a Roadmaster this spring. All I had to do was sign the papers. Decided not to get it as the wife got too hot from the pipes. If any thing happens to the RSV it will be a Roadmaster or a Slingshot to replace it.

I hope they are safe and dry. I talked to a friend in Midland TX. last night and he said they got 5" in two hours and some of that area was flooded.

I just traded my Vulcan 900 Classic and got a V Star 1300 tour. Had the Vulcan for 6 years and not a bit of trouble.

Got mine. Thanks Lewis.

I have never seen one mounted but if it fits on a Harley it will fit the Venture as the Venture has a couple more inches of room. If needed the trunk can be relocated back another inch or so. You can always measure your back seat.

Ebay would be the best bet to get a trunk, not sure about the mounting bracket though.

The Yamaha wings are good to keep the lower legs and feet dry when riding wet roads. Can't say about the Baker wings though.
