I have been pleasantly surprised this year during my very limited Christmas shopping. It may be different in other parts of the country but around here, I'm hearing MERRY CHRISTMAS when I check out. It actually set me back and surprised me when it first happened at Walmart. Then yesterday when I stopped by Best Buy, after checking out, the cashier said "Thank you and I hope you have a blessed and Merry Christmas". I find it incredibly satisfying. Have any of you experienced it in your area?

You should be OK then. One word of warning. Unless they have changed it, they used to not send enough PVC tubing that you add to the top of the springs. The springs are shorter than stock and you use the PVC pipe for spacers. For some reason, they didn't send enough when I did mine and Rick Butler ran into the same issue. We contacted them to let them know but I can't say if they ever changed it or not. It's no big deal, I had plenty of it laying around. Don't remember what size it was but it it was 3/4" or 1" I think.....regular schedule 40 PVC pipe.

Very nice. One of my all time favorite RSV colors.

You really should try to contact their customer service. The thing that sold me on Sonic is exactly what you are saying. Progressive sells the same spring for the Venture and the Royal Star. The Venture, due to the fairing and etc., needs a slightly heavier spring and Sonic has one that specifically works for the RSV. I tried to find my order information but it seems to be gone.

I recommend the Sonic Springs. They do have an application specifically for our bikes. I put them in the '99 that I had and think that they are much better than Progressives.

Done

Pictures restored.

That is true. Pandora actually has two different options though. I subscribe to the standard plan for $4.95 per month. It does away with the commericals but doesn't allow you to download to listen off line. The premium plan is, I think, $10.99 per month and does allow you to download and save the songs for off line listening.

I saw this same sign in front of a small church down the road. Found this one on the Internet. Thought it was kind of clever.

Well, I'm obviously going blind or something. I posted two links to the parts and didn't see either time that the part was listed as unavailable. On the other hand, if anything happens when you try to remove the bearing, I do have a couple of spare rear assemblies if you end up needing one. I got them used so have no idea how many miles on them or what years they came off of but if you need one, I have them.

How about here? http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Motorcycle/1998/V-MAX%201200%20-%20VMX12KC/DRIVE%20SHAFT/parts.html

At this link, it appears to show all the parts and nothing seems to be discontinued. https://www.partshark.com/oemparts/a/yam/50045f8ff8700209bc794e7c/drive-shaft

We love it. We use it all the time at home, in the car, on the bike. I also use Iheart. You can get free versions of each one and try them out. There will be a few commercials with the free versions but not that many.

I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about but I don't see anything related to the rear wheel that has been discontinued. Some part numbers have changed though. https://www.partshark.com/oemparts/a/yam/50045f91f8700209bc794e84/rear-wheel

In my case, my Iphone connects easily to the Nissan Murano system. I can stream music, answers calls, etc. The only thing that doesn't work is the text message feature. I looked into it early on and came to the conclusion that the Iphone is just very finicky about which systems it will work with in regard to text messages. There was no known fix at the time. That was a couple of years ago and I've never looked into it again. Recently got a Iphone X and haven't tried it. I seldom drive the Murano and it's just not a big deal to me.

Thank you for that and a Merry CHRISTMAS to you also.

First of all, I think this is the first post we've seen from an owner of the 2018. Please post pictures because if you did, I missed them. As to your question, I really don't know but what kind of phone do you have? I know that I have that same issue with my Nissan Murano. I have an Iphone and for whatever reason, the Iphone is not compatible with the Nissan system and I understand that this is a common issue with the Iphone. They don't always play well with such systems.

Beautiful dog. Amazing how large a hole that they leave in our hearts when they leave us. You and your wife and in our thoughts and prayers.

WOW....I started this poll way back in 2008. Cool that people are still responding.

I think they both look fantastic.

Who's scared of a little snow. This should handle it. http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2017/11/30/cool-tech-converts-dirt-bikes-for-jason-bourne-like-snow-supremacy.html

I get crap like that all the time. Got three this morning supposedly from PayPal with a link to click to update my information. Bottom line is this. NEVER click on a link that you receive in an email asking you to update your information. Regardless if it is from a bank, PayPal, your Internet Service Provider or anybody else. You can usually hover over the link and see what URL it actually goes to and it is never legit. You should never log into an account from a link in an email. Go the the site as you normally would from your bookmarks or by typing in the URL and see if you have any messages there. If that doesn't satisfy you, then call your bank or whomever.

The original news statement about Bass Pro buying Cabela's stated that both chains would continue to operate rate under their current names. There were no intentions to close or change the name of Cabela's. Of course, that could change in the future but that is the word at this time.

Link deleted in first post.

LOL...saw that picture somewhere last year. I don't know if it's funny or sick but since I laughed, if it's sick then I am too.
