[Pulled a Freebird today- but I still have my mower..]

WOW! Glad you are not seriously hurt. Hope the pain goes away soon. Those things can be dangerous on a hill. I have seen a few roll over where I live.

[Only by the grace of God....(And a little rider experience)]

John glad you were able to keep it up. I had the same thing happen to me a couple years ago. Brand new e3 cut a gash about three inches in the side.

[what the "H" just happened]

Steve sorry to hear of your crash but glad you are hear to talk about it. The bike can be fixed or replaced.

[2015 International Rally]

M0. or Ark. would be OK with me. I am going there the first week of July anyhow.

[Gloves]

I use a pair of HD gloves, thin and breathable, but I have grip puppys on my bars also,very little vibration.

[Exporting a created google map to my Garmin GPS]

Eck I use Map Quest all the time and do not have a problem. Are you sure that you have Garmin communicator on your computer? With map quest there is a tab at the top right corner of the screen to send your route to your gps. If you have the gps settings on fastest time it will give you the direct rout and not what you drag and drop.

[venting]

If mine goes out I will go to Advanced Auto and get a fuel pump and use longer fuel line to put in behind the stock horn, there is plenty room there for a fuel pump on my Venture.

[Anyone have a golf club holder for their Venture?]

I quit playing golf when I got the bike. Not enough time for both on a nice day.

[stopping 2up on 2nd gen- new thread]

Rather I am one up or two I stop the same way. Both brakes till about three or four feet then front only at about two feet both feet down and never in the crown of the road.

[Cheer for me...not the bear]

Good luck Reiny. Just let him get close and make the first shot count. I have taken a few with a bow.

[Wife in Hospital]

Good news the hard part is over.

 

Bet she glad to be back home...

 

Now it's time to spoil her...

 

 

 

And I have plenty of help in doing it.

[Wife in Hospital]

The wife is home. I went down this morning and the finally let her go about 2:00 this afternoon. A little sore but doing well.

[Passenger Floorboards]

Partshark.com you can get OEM parts at a good price. I use them all the time for parts.

[Wife in Hospital]

Up date on the wife. She is up and taking short walks. Has some pain but that is expected. Going down tomorrow and may stay till Sunday if she does not get out tomorrow, she is ready to come home. she has quit smoking that will help the healing process, been 1 1/2 weeks.

[Wife in Hospital]

Bout time for a update Chuck!! Hows things??

 

How is Domino's?? We got one down the road but I've never tried it??

 

We like them. We order once or twice a week

[2015 International Rally]

Cowpuc said Brother,,, I dont know,, those Black Hills are gorgeous in July. Besides, if it happened like the 3rd week of July we would be able to shop some HD Rally vendors, see a few HD rally bikers, still be able to tour the hills unhampered by crazies AND, there would be places available..

 

 

Not saying it is not gorgeous Just expensive. The least expensive room in the area this time of year ia $100.00 a night and it is 25 miles out of Sturgis. Get one close and it will be $175 and up a night.

[Here it is.........at last.........!!!!!]

That is great Lewis. Keep up the good work.

[2015 International Rally]

Sturgis is a great place, Just not the month of july or the first two weeks of Aug.BLACK HILLS RALLY AT THAT TIME OF YEAR.:rotf:

[Wife in Hospital]

Wishing a speedy recovery. At least now you get to catch up on your laundry & cooking skills!

LOL That ain't going to happen, not with my daughter and daughter in law here and Domino's Pizza just down the road.:rotf:

[Bottom Trunk Badly Needs Repair]

That is a lot of damage. It will take some time to fix but it can be done. I would try to find another from a parts bike.

[Wife in Hospital]

Thanks to all I will keep you posted.

[Wife in Hospital]

The wife went into the hospital today for her operation, 7 1/2 hours in OR. She is in ICU tonight and will be put in another room tomorrow. Operation went good but in a lot of pain this evening. Hoping to come home Friday or Sat.

[Hannigan fenders for a RSV question]

I have them on my saddlebags. The front bolt is at a funny angle. I would say that they will not fit with out bending the front leg further forward. That may damage the chrome plating.

[2015 International Rally]

Well if WV is out then I hope it is MO.

[Winch]

I have cut many trees and would never use my truck or tractor to make a tree fall in any direction. Too many raped up in them to let a tree crush them.
