    Would have been for a good cause but it looks like he has now won. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,579773,00.html

    I'll jump on this band wagon also. I like my dual Fireflies.

    If that is true, then it is upsetting. First of all, your private email address is NOT made publicly available on this site whether you are a member or just a guest. Any emails you got would have been through private message or through the email system here which shows that it came from the venturerider site and NOT directly to your email address. So, if you got any trapdoor emails from anybody here, please let me know via PM who it was from and I'll address the issue.

    Send me a PM with your address and I'll get a shipping cost for you. PayPal works best for me when the time comes.

    To be totally honest, I think you are being fairly thin skinned. I have been reading all the posts and just read through them again. It seems that most everybody who replied agrees that anybody who claims that they are not motorcycles are being ridiculous. The last couple of replies were being sarcastic AGAINST those who say that they are not motorcycles with tongue and cheek remarks that if that is true, then none of the safety laws regarding motorcycles would reply. I think you are taking the responses wrong.

    WOW...looks like a lot of fun but I'm WAY too old to try that.

    A long time ago I was either told or read somewhere that you could tell a lot about a person by how they treated a waitress, service employee, whatever. I personally treat them well. Most are trying their very hardest to just get by. They are sometimes people working a second job to make ends meet, a college student that is trying to at least help pay there own way rather than depending on dad and mom to do it all, etc. In other words, I believe strongly that you did the right thing by tipping.

    I don't think they work with the first gen Venture. I don't think you even need one with it. The second gen has a different frame and the engine extends below it. The adapter is made to work specifically on the second gen. Somebody can correct me if I'm wrong.

    Nope...they are the same.

    Yep, they have been on there for a while. A blatant ripoff of the ones designed and built by Carbon One here. I haven't ever seen one of those but I have Carbon One's and am very happy with it and trust him to provide quality work.

    Now THAT was funny. I think he should have set the head on fire though. Then it could have been "Ghost Rider".

    I am pleased to announce that our very own MiCarl is now offering all VentureRider members a 15% discount for all your parts needs from his store, Thunder Valley Powersports. Please see details at: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?p=414436#post414436

    Well I do agree with one thing. The TITLE!

    I'm starting to worry about you. Are you telling us that you joined this group under the illusion that you would retain any credibility at ALL?

    I think I've got one or two old stands around here somewhere. I'm headed out of town though so won't be able to measure for you until I return on Friday. I have to find them first. I could also send you one if you want me to. Just the cost of shipping is all I would ask but I have to tell you, it could be expensive to shop to you due to the size and weight. When I was selling the stands, shipping was as much as $25.00 even to points in the USA.

    Gregg, You make some good points. The thing is though, it's not like people are publicly chastised or receive threatening emails when a mistake is made. They may receive an email telling them that it was slightly over the line but sometimes, the post is simply deleted. That alone should be an indication to them that they had pushed it a bit too far. If somebody were to be stubborn and keep trying it then there would probably be a more serious talk with them but that has not been a problem.

    I gave up and just left it sitting on the counter.

    Over the top.

    It's been a couple of years since we have done one and I would like to do it again. I think it's too late to get it done for 2010 though.

    I've got an old '71 John Deere with snow blower on it and it works great. I just fire it up and point the discharge SOUTH. I send it all down to you folks that think it is so pretty.

    Glad you made it home safely and that you both had a nice time.

    I'm using 3.5 and it works great. BUT....the company recently sent me a new laptop to replace my old one. On the old one, when I upgraded to Firefox 3.5, I had all kinds of problems with it and ended up going back to the older version. When I did a clean install of Firefox 3.5 on the new computer, everything worked great.

    I do the same thing. I use the suction mount in my work car and the ram mount on the bike. I use the lighter adapter for the van and used the wiring for the hard wiring that came with it for the bike. All I have to do is remove the 550 from the cradle to move it back and forth. Works great.
