Thanks....we'll see how it does now. It's the Mysql variables and etc. that are kicking my butt. I'm weak in that area. Made some changes and we'll see how it does tomorrow when it's loaded up again. I may call on you if there is still a problem. Just a note, the server never did crash tonight. It was just me tweaking on and messing with things that caused any issues.

Sorry, I have all signatures turned off right now while I try to trouble shoot a high memory issue.
-
Congrats to you. I hope you love it, they are beautiful bikes and Harley has done some nice things the last few years. You are still invited to my house on the 7th. Would love to see it.
-
When was that? And what Group page? I hope you didn't get it just now.
-
Shouldn't be. It is actually hosted on a different server.
-
Yes, I'm turning off various things trying to determine what is causing the high memory usage. It takes overhead to sort the names so trying that also.
-
Yes, I"m working on it. Our memory usage is high and I'm really trying to figure out WHY????
-
Most of you missed it but SOME...actually a lot...were online. I was doing another software upgrade and uploaded the files into the wrong folders and crashed the site completely. BUT...I HAD made a backup and got it back up quickly.
-
uh...that's all.

Yesterday I upgraded our classifieds software to the latest version. To be honest, I don't know why I wasted my time because there were very few new features added and none that I felt are really needed. I had hoped to see things like "email to a friend" and etc. but it was not to be. I had also hoped that the accuracy of the zip code functions would be improved but that does not appear to be the case either. One thing I did do was add two new fields. One for city and one for state. If people use those it will help when the zip codes are off. I also move or deleted a lot of ads from the first gen venture category. That area is supposed to be for complete bikes, not parts. There is a separate category for first gen parts. Keeping the ads in the correct categories will make it much easier for folks to find what they are looking for. Some folks had listed their parts in both places. I started out trying to see which ones were listed in both sections and then deleting the double entries and then moving the ones that were not listed in the correct category but that was taking way too much time. I finally just deleted the ones that were in the wrong place. Sorry for the inconvenience but if you had parts listed in the First Gen Bikes category, you will need to relist your items.

That's kind of been my thought also. Heck...I bought this thing but every time I get ready to install new tires, I end up taking the rims to the local Honda shop. They charge me $25.00 per wheel to mount and balance and I figure that is reasonable enough and saves me a LOT of time and effort.
-
I sure like the looks of this thing but don't have $900.00 to spend on it. I do have the cheap Harbor Freight model that I have never used. I think I've bought tires 3 times since getting it and always end up getting lazy and taking the rims to a local shop to have them mounted. Part of the problem is that I haven't take the time to bolt down the changer. I really like this hitch mount setup and may look at building some sort of adapter like that for mine. http://www.webbikeworld.com/Motorcycle-tires/motorcycle-tire-changer/

Jeff pretty much nailed it. I don't know of any fix for the cruise control and I know of no CD player that will fit in that space. Most of us use MP3 players anyway. As for the cassette door, if you push lightly right in the center it usually works well.
-
Sounds nice to me. I remember when I used to ride a motorcycle to work when I worked nights at a power plant in Texas. In the spring and the fall, it was a nice ride but when you went through those bottoms, the temps would drop as you describe and would be quiet chilly for a few minutes.

As far as I know, there is no actual jet kit for the RSV. You have to buy the individual jets. The one you see is for the Royal Stars.

Do we have to have yet another car tire thread? Some here think it's great, some think it's stupid. No reason to stir the pot at every opportunity.

Here you go and it's very simple. Your dealer is trying to rip you off. It's about a 15 minute job after you've done it the first time. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=258

Mileage shows up wrong in Classifieds?
Freebird replied to a topic in Computer help and tips for using this site.
If you entered the wrong zip code, you have to delete that cookie in your browser and then when you go back to the classifies, it will be blank and you can enter it again. You don't have to clear all your cookies if you don't want to. Just open your cookies and search for zip and it will come up. Delete it and then go back to the classifieds and you can enter it again. Unfortunately, that may not be the case. The zipcode database leaves a lot to be desired. It seems to be wrong fairly often but usually not all that bad. I find that on anything a long ways off, it is usually a couple hundred miles off. I figure they are calculating it by straight/air miles and not by roads. Don -
If you go to your ad, you will see some icons to the right of your name. There are several of them and it says "User Options". The one on the bottom left I think is "edit ad". Hold our mouse pointer over each of them and it will show what each is.

Yes, here is a link to the whole manual. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1828

Also, the one you are looking at will not be correct. You need one for the 1999-whenever Royal Star Venture.

Here you go and for the record, there simply is not a better company to deal with. http://www.diamondraccessories.com/yamaha/yamahaproducts.php

No, unfortunately I never saw it in operation. Here is a link where Webbike World reviewed it though. http://www.webbikeworld.com/heads-up-display/

Just checked, it works for me too. It must not like you Carl.
