  1. You can still find Zippos at most convience stores. A little bit of Velcro and you're good to go.....
  2. PM me your address Paul.
  3. OK Dan. I'll send you the $30 via Paypal if that's alright? Need your email address if it is.
  4. How much to 95608 in Sacramento?? UPS might be an option being it's so close. Let me know, and if the shipping is decent... read cheap... you can send them down here....
  5. I use Dawn on the tires because it's usually the cheapest dish soap at Sam's Club. I also Lemon Fresh Pledge for the plastic. Probably 2-3 times a year. I know that Carnuba's will last longer, but we're talking a motorcycle here. Takes about 10-15 minutes with Pledge and 2 micro-fiber rags to do the whole thing. Pledge also works great on the windshield....
  6. I've been around since the good ol' days, and that's the first time I've ever heard of sugar water... Hmmm learn something new every day... Up until now I just been scrubbing the tires with a brush and dish soap suds.
  7. 83.......... 52k 83/84...... 56k 87........... 39k 90........... 76k 91........... 96k 93........... 72k
  8. That's an interesting observation, and one I hadn't thought of before. The only thing I can add is that when lightly braking there isn't a hole lot of dive, and when I'm in hard stop mode everything is getting squeezed and stomped on... Takes care of that one sided operation.... Also on my '83 the forks have been swapped out for a set from an '86, along with Progressive springs, and I didn't feel the need to wire the AD's up. With the added R1 calipers it's makes a very nice set up.
  9. Hope this helps....
  10. Wow!! Thankfully, it could of been a lot worse.. Heal up...
  11. That low speed wobble is probably caused by the wheel on the sidecar being midship to the bike, and at low speed with different rolling resistences you're getting a wobble until the gyro effect of the wheels takes over. It might also cause the forks to react unevenly with just a little independant side-by-side action. Not saying a fork is the cure, but it can't hurt.

  13. Can't tell from the pics, but do you have an aftermarket fork brace installed??
  14. Build a big one and take the motor out of the weed eater.... then go buy a goat....
  15. If you can't find anything at your local lawnmower shop, check out any hobby shop. They carry the small stuff......
  16. And here's a Kawasaki.... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkggvRjk0eE]YouTube- v12 kawa[/ame]
  17. I remember being passed by a 2ndGen...... He was going the other way....
  18. 'Bout 500......
  19. Didn't know that, so I went on the MS website and did a search for Voice Recognition and this is what I found. XP VOICE Something else I didn't know is that if you press the CTRL button on the keyboard and hit the + or - key the screen image will increase or decrease in size. It also works with the scroll wheel..... Kinda cool... Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks....
  20. That just doesn't make any since. When you slam anything bad things will happen.
  21. Had a couple of friends try something like that out. One was dislexic and I think he's still using it. The other got frustrated and quit because he had a hard time 'training' it. This was probably 10+ years ago when voice recognition was just starting. I'm sure things have gotten better since then. Good luck.
  22. From the looks of it the dam road will still be open to thru traffic. So you could still go the old way, and come back over the bridge.... or visa-versa? One big circle. Hoover Dam
  23. Same thing here. Never been over it on a bike. May sounds perfect. Later on in the year it starts getting hot. Something to look forward to....
  24. I agree Randy. Slightly wider than the V4.... Maybe we'll see a new RSV with a V6... OK I wonder how far this will go before it blossoms into a full fledged rummor....
  25. Found a pic of the concept and tried to copy and paste here, but it didn't work. Somebody will though. Doesn't look like a tourer to me....
