    Yeah, put me on the list too. Gawd, I love group buys.....

    I've always been curious as to why anyone would need MKI bag liners?? I guess they'd be great if all you packed were clothing. I don't know about anyone else, but that's not generally the case with tool rolls, covers, patch kits, first aid kits, cleaning equipment, etc.... and even if you can get one of the bags packed with pure clothing, the saddles are removable and made to be carried like a suitcase into a motel room. On the MKII, although the saddles don't come off, a couple of smaller duffles that fit over the top of the 'stash' might be put to better use. Having a bag that's cut to fit just doesn't make sense....

    Yep, been on and off the site a couple of times in the last hour and have not picked up the listing in my active history. However, if you find that it's harmless and resizes the pic width so we don't need to go 'student body right', I'm all for it.... can't stand those huge posted pics... and can live with the double click..

    Yeah, because of where I find it it's two click for me as well....

    OK, for lack of a better name that's all I could think of to call it. When I visit VR.org I pick up this website in the browsing history http://img121.imagehacks.info/img121/10 It doesn't take me anywhere when I try to go to it, can't get any properties info on it, and it only shows up when I visit VR.org. I'm a little concerned because of the 'hacks'. Anyone know what's going on?? Could we have some sort of crawler working the site?? I see it when I want to go back several pages and use the hot list to the right of the forward/back arrows.

    My fishing buddy is undergoing radiation treatment right now for prostrate cancer. I guess they implanted some gold pellets near the cancer target and it gives them something to aim at. The only draw back is he has to cover his belly button at night or the light keeps him awake....

    Man, am I glad my '98 Suburban has the 5.7 Vortec in it. 21mpg highway, and about 17-18 around town....

    When you're setting the CC make sure your clutch lever is all the way out.....maybe??

    Register it as a homemade. Every state is different, and I think in Nevada you own the plates and they stay with you when you sell the vehicle. At least that's the way it is with cars...maybe trailers are different??? If they gave you the paper work to register as a homemade, go for it. Have a freind give you a bill of sale for used tires, and lights for $50 bucks. Take that with the form an get a plate. They may issue you a new VIN number to be stamped in the frame....

    Nope... The FCC screen appears at the end of the tape, but at least the Star Wars tapes gave me no problem. I even checked the playback of the .mpg file. Worked perfect.

    About a week ago I saw this WOOT item that converts older VCR tapes into .mpg files on the computor. It'll also burn the file to a DVD compatable. And the price was $29.95. So since we have a lot of classic tapes, I said 'what the heck' and bought one. It's basically a VCP with a USB plug, and some pretty neat software. ION VCR 2 PC And it works!! The only problem I'm finding with it is it doesn't work very fast. I basically have to view and record the tape in real time, but I can still let it to it's thing in the background while surfing. I just got through converting Star Wars 3 tape series.

    Didn't I read somewhere that you can't use the OEM weights?? And from the pics it looks like there isn't any support under the section that broke off??? I thought the grips were stainless, usually pretty tough stuff... I have a set of the same design highway pegs on the '83 and the '93. With my clod hoppers maybe I should start getting worried???

    I donno?? I was just going by the quote you attached to your post from warthogcrewchief. He has an '89, and was the one mentioning the R1's from Earl... Sorry for the misunderstanding....
  15. Condor
    Not on the MKII's Gary. The R1's are plug and play....

    US Census

    Condor replied to CMIKE's topic in Watering Hole

    From what I can gather from this website there are only 10 questions required by law to be answered. http://2010.census.gov/2010census/how/interactive-form.php Don't know where the 48 questions come from unless you have 20 kids???

    Thanks for the info and the posts guys. The '83 has been getting clunky lately. Looks like I have another project..... Does it ever end???
  19. Condor
    I think they base it on the number of people filing for unimployment so retired folks aren't counted in the mix.. A better question would be how many are still looking, but their unemployment has run out..... I bet you could almost double the percentage..??

    FM is normal. You may have a bad connection on the multi plug under the unit. You get to the plugs by removing the board that holds the radio and tape deck. Once unlocked they lift straight up out of the outer plastic. Get some electrical contact cleaner and spray the 'H' out of them.

    The MKII seat will fit...snugly. The MKII passenger seat is wider. A MKI will fit any year. The back rests are designed for either the MKI or MKII. The Venture Line Rest looks the same but the brackets are different.

    My Field Shear mesh with liner is very comfortable at 35 degs. Not bad for a mesh.

    It's done with mirrors and Mojo..... Actually it didn't make sense to me either, and after reading the Ride-On explaination it still didn't make any sense to my Vulcan brain, but I guess it does...

    I've never used Dyna-Beads, but I suspect that the test run by MCN was faulty. I know that with Ride-On, which also has balancing properties, they say to balance the tire statically first and then let RO 'fine tune' the balance. I know first hand this works. By removing the tire weights and trying to balance the tire with only the beads might be where they screwed up. I don't see how a tire can be balanced the way they ran the test unless the tire was perfectly balanced to begin with. There are just too many positive feedbacks for the MCN test to be creditable.

    We held the National at Ft Collins, Co. in July'07. Most of the local canyon riding was T-Shirt except for the very high passes thru Estes Park. Temps were very warm. Your reg riding jackets should be fine.
