  1. This online dealer seems to have just about every style and color imaginable. http://www.stripeman.com/pin-stripes.htm
  2. The servers frozen.....
  3. I really feel fortunate to be living here in NorCal and the Pacific West with it's balmy 36deg weather. For the rest of the US, except for SoFla, it's brutal out there. Ouch!!! http://vortex.plymouth.edu/uschill.gif
  4. My favorite place to shop.... it's just that I've been finding way to many things I 'r need lately.....
  5. Well Don, I guess I'm just a thrifty kind of guy and base value of needs... like safety chrome... over that of wants, and since I'm not rolling in bucks I pehaps tend to look at things a little differently then you do. This aftermarket equipment thing can get addictive. Call me cheap if you want, but I'll always look for the bargain, and I'll always value utility over status. If all I'm going to achieve is a higher limiter with the Dyna 3000 I think I'll pass, and if I hadn't got into a set of exhausts for a third of retail, or the new KnN's for a song, I wouldn't have been able to afford them. I always base a purchase on what it will do for money spent. I'm not saying that's where everyone should be, but that's where I am.
  6. OK, so I guess from what your saying the Dyna 3000, the KnN's, and the exhaust are a waste of money since they don't do anything???
  7. Ok lets put performance on the back burner, and leave the V-Max gears on the shelf for the time being.... Which would be the best bang for the buck???
  8. Only 19000 on a CT tire?? I thought one of the big reasons for going to the CT was better milage?? Seems to me your CT isn't getting much more than a good touring MC tire....
  9. OK, let's throw some more fuel on the fire. From a performance standpoint, what would be a better up grade, the Dyna 3000.... or freeflow intake filters and aftermarket straight thru exhaust??
  10. Sometimes you can set the GPS to shortest distance, or avoid freeways,....or quickest route. Sometimes you can't?? When headed to Tucson I usually take the Phoenix cut off SR85 at Buckeye down to Gila Bend and I-8. Then East. Gets rid of all that Phoenix traffic.
  11. Here's one to keep you busy when not shoveling snow off the front porch. http://www.versuscountrybagamonsterbuck.com/
  12. Glad to hear you can work it out.
  13. Yep, you're getting old Rick... Hey, you popped the question..... :rotf:
  14. Perhaps you might want to re-read the CL prohibited link again. I don't know where you're reading the 'or purchasing' (sic) part of CL restrictions, but read my post again. It's a wanted ad. Not selling anything. So it doesn't fall under the craigslist prohibited items. Until they change their policy I have every right to place the ad.
  15. Actually those brackets are the hard part to find. The seller ends up taking the seat off the bike and forgets the brackets are still on the bike. Bye-Bye brackets. I've seen quite a few MKII back rests on Ebay listed without the brackets. If the guy you bought the backrest can't come up with the correct brackets I'd request a refund including 'ALL' shipping costs. Shipping the thing is not cheap.
  16. I wonder what it'll look like 6 months down the road?? I tried Armoral on my truck tires once... because I was young and dumb.... and the sidewalls turned an ugly brown after a bit. Now if I want a tire to look 'black' I use 'Soft Scrub' and a stiff brush. They end up looking like new. On the seats, and other leather parts, I use Farmans 'Leather New'.
  17. You have a friend in the toe/toe camp Rick... for the same reasons. With my big clodhoppers I hit that dang heel peg, and shift into neutral all the time, or end up in a higher gear and start lugging. A real PITA. I found a billet toe shifter on Ebay.... Without the heel peg I can move my foot around to different positions while on longer rides.
  18. Nope.... Just the cotter pins. You could pick up a couple hairpin style which are a lot easier to pull when you want to remove the back. http://www.mcmaster.com/#cotter-pins/=au2aen
  19. masochist!!!!
  20. Just went out and asked Miss Piggy... "Are you whining?" Miss Piggy.... "No Love, I don't whine" Me... "Just wondering, some Dude named 'Cam-bell' sez you do" Miss Piggy "Nah I b!tch and moan a bit, but I never whine....Muahh!" I think she loves me....
  21. Same thing here.... Picked up a toe/toe off Ebay. I did get used to the H/T, but it was the lifting and moving the foot back that was a PITA....
  22. Nah.... Cam-bells sounds better....
  23. B!tch...b!tch...b!tch..... So when'r ya installing a CTR Stand??? :rotf:
  24. Can you take a pic of what you have?? You may have been sold a MKI backrest.. I looked but can't find a pic of a MKII, but they are a fairly simple setup.. I'm sure someone else on the boards can supply one....
  25. And you know that... why??? Oh yeah, I remember...ask Vic. I personally wouldn't bother putting a rt angle stem on the front rim. It's easy to get to. Now the back is a different story..... I have never seen a 10mm stem, and can't imagine what they would be used for??..... It's an 8.....
