  1. If I'm reading Brad's post correctly, he is wanting an option for the person who is replying to select to send an email to the original poster. That is not an option at this time. It is up to the original poster to decide if he wishes to receive notifications of any responses. I don't THINK I will change that. If a person wants to receive email notifications, that is their option. If I were to add a feature like this then it would override the members choice to NOT receive such emails. Is that confusing enough?
  2. WOW...now THAT is something that I would love to own. I would need a LOT of financing though.
  3. If you move your pointer over the flag, a little box will popup and show the name of the state or province. Most people do set their states but some just never go to their UserCP and set all the available options. When I first added the flags, I started to make it a required field during registration but the problem with that is that we have a few members from other countries as well as the US and Canada and there is no way that I can add ALL the flags from all states, provinces and etc. of all the countries in the world. So making it a required field would force them to choose a place that they don't live. For anybody who does not have their flag showing, you can go to UserCP, Edit Profile, scroll down to additional information and you'll find a drop down box to select your state or province.
  4. Here are the instructions. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=501
  5. $16.00 and that would include delivery.

    No thanks...I think we are OK in the rain department. 56 here today and not raining at this very moment. Supposed to rain tomorrow though. If it holds off, I may actually get a ride in this weekend. That would be the first time in about 4 months.
  7. These are the small VentureRider patches. There is a picture in the info thread but I honestly don't think that the picture does it justice. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?p=5248#post5248

    Great Avatar....now you got me thinking that it's time for me to come up with a new one.

    Tires?

    I agree with everything Goose just said. I actually think that the lack of grip makes them dangerous. A few years ago when a group of us were carving some curves in Arkansas, the only rider that almost went down a couple of times was the guy running nearly new stock Bridgestone tires.
  10. Pictures and price info is here: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17406
  11. The Diamond R and the Utopia are so similar that I suspect that if this is a problem, that it will be a problem with both of them. Is that correct?
  12. Thanks...wasn't sure if the ones going to Canada had showed up yet.
  13. I posted this on December 20th, 2007. I assume that any dealings with him since that time were NOT as a result of any posts here because I removed his ads and banned him at that time. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showpost.php?p=158341&postcount=53
  14. I don't know if he visits here now. He has been banned from the forum for exactly this reason. He would never reply to emails from me and others about these problems. If you have a telephone number or email for him that would probably be your best chance of contacting him.
  15. Just wanted to check if all of you have received your patches. I think that the only people who may not have received them are wkboard and maybe seabeetom. Those should be there soon. If you have paid and not received yours, please let me know. I have a LOT of patches still and also still have some VR Guardian Bells if anybody wants some. Don
  16. Great pictures of what was obviously a fantastic trip. I can tell that from your daughter's lovely smile. I'm not a HUGE Gibson fan except for electrics. I will probably own a Les Paul one of these days. That has always been my favorite electric. For now, I've been wanting a 12 string. Finally bought one tonight on Ebay. Got a GREAT deal on a nearly new Seagull 12. Now I just have to wait for it to get here. I've tried a lot of 12 strings lately and really hadn't decided 100% on which one I wanted but the Seagull was one of my preferences. I love the slightly wider neck on it. I already have a Seagull S6 Cutaway and like it a lot.
  17. But....he rides a HARLEY!!!! That is what got you into this mess to begin with.

    Big Rear

    Yes, I remember that report. It was the Metzler and it was the one size larger that they claimed was approved.
  19. ahhhh....that is why I couldn't find anything. It's all somebodies wish list. Nice job on his write-up though.
  20. I have no reason to doubt the info but I wonder where it came from. I've searched and found nothing online anywhere. I'm probably just missing it. Unless they really changed the styling, it's just not for me. Sorry...I love the cruiser styling of the RSV. Put an 1800 in it and THEN I MAY consider trading.
  21. Email sent. Thanks for doing this Eck.
  22. The newspaper article would look a little different when Eileen catches me doing the spanking. You would need to check the obituaries to find the story.
  23. This isn't going to end folks. Everybody just has to make their own decisions I guess. I would just say that if you have ANY doubt, don't do it.
  24. Don't they have the Yamaha version? I think they both work well but from what I've seen, the Yamaha version looks much better. UNLESS Baker has changed their design. I haven't looked at their's lately.
  25. It's certainly not in my budget. I do expect to see something from Harley in the near future though.
