    Never gave that much thought, but now that you mention it...... With all those CI's I bet they put out a ton.... And I think they'd have enough spare power to install refrigerated AC.... It would be different...

    I'm curious. I've been thinking about installing a 3000 in the '99... as soon as I come up with some spare change... I've looked at Dyna-Tek's web site, Ebay, as well as others, an keep coming up with two different pics for the 3000. One has a two port plugin and the other has three. Yet they are both listed as fitting the RSV. Is this just a case where one pic fits all, and what I'd get will be right?? Or.... have they changed configurations?? The reason I'm a little gun shy on which one is correct is I remember one of our members buying a used TCI off an Ebay seller and it came with two ports and he needed three... or visa versa. http://i.ebayimg.com/03/!B2OmdKgB2k~$(KGrHqQOKi4E)VpEW9m3BMhoivI4B!~~_35.JPG http://i19.ebayimg.com/06/i/001/0b/35/7b2a_12.JPG

    I'm a real Barrett Jackson fan, and next week they're auctioning off a Boss Hoss bike #318.1 on Wednesday. Thought some of you might be interested as well....

    Hope you're successful.....

    If you do find them, and would like to get rid of them, I'd be interested. Thinking of having them polished out and maybe starting an exchange service. Seems like flaking Bubb tips are a huge problem.... That also goes for anyone else who might have a set taking up space in the garage.

    Thanks for all the input. I think that most advice deals with connecting two wires with a but connector, and not tapping a third wire into an existing circut. Those blue 'squeezers' are one way, and the dialectric grease is something that would guard against corrosion down the road. I do a lot of boat wiring and if it isn't done properly things will go bad very quickly. Using the grease should solve the possibility of any corrosion with the squeezers. Stripping a 1/2" of insulation off the existing wire and then wrapping the third wire around the primary, soldering and sealing will probably be the way I'll go. Sealing the splice with liquid electricians tape is also added security. Messy at first, but it does a great job. There's probably another 6 or 7 brands of the stuff, but Star Brite has been around the longest and what I use. I appreciate all the opinions...

    I've read about a couple of different places to splice in the trailer light pig-tail, but I still have one question. What do you use to do the splice. Those squeeze together quick splices, or bare wires with a heat shrink tubing cover?? I have a 5 wire on the trailer to match what's on the bike so I think a plug and play is out if anyone even makes one...

    Try some Tripoli compound to get them to look like chrome. Then hit them with the Hi-temp clear.

    Hurt like an SOB. I think the tester had a little bit of masochism in her. About half way thru the second hand I said that's enough if she valued her life.... Since I outweighed her by about 300 pounds... and only weigh 325.... she stopped. I've now had both hands repaired and no more numbness while riding..... Before all this I couldn't go 3 blocks without the hands going to sleep.....

    Welcome to the board George. I went thru Buckeye once on the way down to Gila Bend while doing the Pheonix by-pass. Picked up my '93 in Tucson and then visited a friend down in Benson for a bit. Don't think I'll be heading that way again for a while, but if the heat starts to get to you, you can always ride north in July to Cody for the International.

    I think it wooda been more fun if you'd stay'd on the bike???

    I might add that as low of an amperage that these tenders put out, running the negative thru a frame ground would even create more resistence and a lower tender rate. Battery posts are the only logical connection....

    I took my tips to a shop here in town that professionally polishes metals. He ground the remaining chrome off, but admitted it was a PITA and wore out an 80 grit belt. Anyway the end product was really nice. I just dropped off a set of billet air filter covers and this time he's sending them out to a chromer to have them stripped. Here's a before and after. That is not chrome, but polished aluminum.

    Here in Sacramento we had a father and aquaintence, Manfred Kallweit, who sued his ex-wife to not smoke around his childern in her home. Attached is a copy of a petition in Mass. about childern exposed to smoking in the home. It's from this sight. http://ash.org/fostercarepetition.html He certainly stired up a bowl of worms.... There's lot's of info on the web about it. It may give you an opening. ©. CHILDREN AND TOBACCO SMOKE AT HOME: In at least fifteen states and several foreign countries, courts have held that, if parents subject children to tobacco smoke, it can be grounds for denial or even revocation of custody. 18 While most such legal proceedings have been brought by the nonsmoking parent, in several cases complaints were filed by relatives or outsiders such as physicians, 19 and willful exposure of children to tobacco smoke is increasingly being characterized as child abuse, child neglect, and/or reckless endangerment. 20 These cases show that judges regard the dangers of exposing children to tobacco smoke as serious enough to warrant termination of custody and visitation rights. It is only a matter of time before judges exhibit the same concern for foster children, 21 where the ultimate responsibility and blame for such exposure lies as much with the welfare agency and its personnel as with the foster parents, and where the agency is generally held to an even higher legal standard of care than natural parents. In summary, at least three rapidly growing areas of legal liability – constitutional and common law torts for knowingly subjecting prisoners to tobacco smoke pollution, damage actions under a variety of legal theories for adults subjected to tobacco smoke pollution in workplaces and public areas, and court orders protecting children from tobacco smoke pollution in custody, child abuse, and related situations – all strongly suggest similar results should a law suit be brought against the agency or agency officials on behalf of one of more foster children who suffer from asthmatic attacks, ear aches, or other medical problems after being placed in a foster home where authorities knew or should have known that smoking was taking place. In addition, the thousands of laws prohibiting smoking in an ever growing number of places [see II below] show a growing public recognition – of which courts may, of course, take judicial notice – of the clear and present dangers of tobacco smoke pollution, and the public necessity and reasonableness of prohibiting smoking, even though such restrictions may be costly and disruptive – as in bars and restaurants.
