  1. Yep....you got the best color combination ever offered on a first gen. Of course, that's just MY opinion.
  2. To post a picture, just type whatever message here that you want to...before hitting the submit button, scroll down a bit and you will see "manage attachments". Click on that and a window will open up where you can browse for and upload your pictures. They need to be no larger than 640 x 480 and under 200,000 bytes.
  3. They actually may have that problem resolved. I got a call from my contact at Verizon Corporate yesterday. They are supposed to be overnighting me a new Venus with an 8 GIG chip to test for them. I haven't seen it yet today and due to the weather, it may not get here today as it was supposed to.
  4. This would be great for oil changes and etc. if you don't have nor want a center stand. I actually have one of these on my trailer. Mine is a home made one but works great. I have it out of the trailer right now and plan to try it in the garage. No reason it won't work the same as this one. http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcycle-wheel-chock/steady-stand/
  5. Have you checked the output level on the XM as I suggested above?
  6. You can go to the first gen tech library section. The first two articles there are on how to test it. It is a read only area so you will have to come back here to ask any questions. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=68
  7. Have you tried increasing the output level on the XM unit? I find that I had to do that when I moved the unit from the bike to my work car. I use the aux input on the bike but used the cassette adapter on my work car. I always had to change it when I moved it back and forth. You set the output level on the XM through the menu settings.
  8. I MUCH prefer the torsion suspensions. Smoother and quieter. I even have it on my 5 x 10 trailer.
  9. It would hold about 7 mini-muffins or one E-Fishin.
  10. We'll just go back to using pink air. How many here have heard of THAT?
  11. FINE...if you are going to be THAT way about it. I don't want Pamela though....I'll just find me another one.
  12. Actually...she would be my number one pick from those listed. Pamela Anderson has too many miles on her now.
  13. A little cleaner. Also a bit cleaner at low volumes. It all depends upon which speakers you are using. When you upgrade speakers, you often don't have enough power to drive them with the stock units. So the amp helps some even at low volumes. Just not as much as I had hoped.
  14. I have transitions also and like them for the most part. The downside is that they do NOT work in the car so if you need sunglasses in the car, you will need something else. They work off ultraviolet rays and car windshields are made with ultraviolet filters.
  15. Yes it did. I will get it out tomorrow.
  16. Now about you just pay for shipping and keep all those old green stamps. Send me a PM with your address and I'll get it shipped. I will then let you know how much the shipping was and you can PayPal me or send me a money order or whatever.
  17. I may just happen to have one. It LOOKS OK on the outside. It came off an '83. It is missing the gas cap...somebody else here ended up with it.
  18. :rotf::rotf::rotf:
  19. Hey...I'm not one to mention names. That's not to day that YOU can't.
  20. Yes...the monster could enter so long as he is clothed. Clothing is MANDATORY. Exceptions will be made at the discretion of the owner....well....so long as the owner's wife is not around. Exceptions may include but are not limited to: Pamela Anderson, Marisa Tomei, Halle Berry, etc. etc. etc.......
  21. I told you that I was busy on Saturday building a base for a hot tub. Got it all installed and warmed up. Got all the chemicals adjusted right and tried it out tonight for the first time. I had one when we lived in Dallas but forgot how much I enjoyed it. Sitting out there with light snow flurries and 12 degrees with the spa temp steady at 101 F and a hot cup of coffee....a little bit of heaven in the frozen north. I feel more relaxed than I've been in months. OH...and ONE MORE THING. Come maintenance day here...there will be NO pond monster in the spa. Some of you will KNOW what I'm talking about.
  22. Any good speaker with polycarbonate cones will be fine. The Polk 400 or 401s seem to be getting pretty popular around here. I have Pioneers in my RSV but am going to try the Polks soon. By the way, the Polk speaker is rated for marine use so it should hold up very well.
  23. Hey my friend...I'm not scared of MY wife....just YOURS.
  24. hmmm.....maybe it's getting to close to my maintenance day for me to be giving Ramona a hard time, she may show up here. OK....I was just kidding about all that stuff Ramona and also about that little joke when you wanted to paint the bike pink...well you KNOW I was kidding....right...uh....RIGHT????
  25. You know....when you see a new baby you always say "ohhhh.....what a beautiful baby"...even when it is NOT true. Little bald headed wrinkled rat looking things. BUT...that truly is a good looking young man. What a head of hair. Congrats to all. You should be very proud.
