Yes, I've thought about it but that's about all. We'll see if the manufacturers come back with any comments on that.

Good memories. I've owned a number of the 750s. They were truly great bikes. Had one that looked exactly like the one in your picture.

It really was a good game. When it started, I really didn't have a preference as to who won. As I watched the game though, I found myself pulling for the Giants. Maybe because they were the underdog or maybe it was something about seeing Payton there pulling so hard for little brother to get his own ring. I wouldn't have been upset either way but was happy in the end to see the Giants win it.

I have no idea what it is rigged for but it's a great looking truck.

LOL...ok....I corrected that.

I was NOT at the table so don't try blaming that aura stuff on me.

I'm not a trucker but I admit that is a beautiful rig. Almost makes me WANT to be a trucker.

Handle Bar Clamp with Risers??
Freebird replied to M61A1MECH's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
I saw your question and sure wish I could help. I have the Flanders Bars and not the risers and don't have that piece anyway to do any measuring for you. -
It is very handy. I have all my cds on the IPOD. I used to have a CD changer on the RSV but then had to decide which cds I wanted to take and etc. With the IPOD, I can choose from my collection anything that I want depending upon the mood that I'm in. I can also create playlists that contain different artists and types of music. I can do that before I leave and don't have to search while I'm on the road. Finding tunes is very easy. You can sort by artist, cd, genre.....etc. I love it.

Aura??? I'll bet Brad stepped in something..... OH....you said aura...I was thinking ODOR.

OK...you've got my vote....now getting my MONEY...that's another thing altogether.

This is not the company that I requested a quote from but have done so now. Doesn't hurt to get as many quotes as possible. Thanks.

I agree. If you are talking about a second gen. I've owned many bikes and the RSV fits me and my long legs better than any I've ever owned. I was NOT as comfortable on the first gen but opinions vary about that. Condor is taller than me and says that the first gen fits him perfectly.

How much memory does it use? Built in memory or Chip?
-
That is correct....I have to change it for you but then all posts, galleries, etc. will be updated to the new name automatically. No problem.
-
By the way...I can't remember if I posted it or not but I ended up taking back the LG Venus. I liked the phone but it was NOT ready for prime time. I wanted it primarily for the 8 GB MP3 player but though it recognizes the 8 GB chip, you get a "device full" error at less than 4 GB. Verizon and LG have found no solution to the problem but they still continue to market it as an 8 GB phone.
-
and there you have it. IPhone, Ipod, seems they always end up with a battery issue. Wonder how the new Air Mac or whatever it is will fair? No thanks.

OK folks...I may again be getting myself into something that I will regret but I'm getting pretty used to that. I've tried for years to find and buy a scale model of the RSV. Die cast, plastic, whatever. There is simply nothing available. So this evening I got on it again and this time I found a custom manufacturer who is interested in doing it for me. I asked him to give me a price based upon quantity, detail, etc. I've seen samples of other projects that he has done and they are fantastic. At this time, I have no idea about the cost. He is supposed to get back to me early next week with all the details. I sent him a lot of pictures of my RSV and he said that he will be reviewing them over the weekend. So....there you have it. Is there any interest?
-
I've never built one but I do have those plans. If you haven't bought them yet, I can try to scan them and email them to you. After I got prices for the steel and other components, I found that it was cheaper for me to buy one Haven't done that yet either though.

There are two posts that question how I could lose respect for somebody because of a difference in political issues. I can't really explain that without getting into a deep political discussion. The simple fact is that 20 years ago, I wouldn't have felt this way. Now days though, there is such a huge difference in what some on the far left believe as opposed to what some on the far right believe that I readily admit that I cannot respect some views and when I know that some people do support some views which I consider extreme, I do lose some respect for them. There are a handful of issues that I simply cannot understand how people can think the way that they do. That's all I can say about it. It may not seem right to some of you but I'm just being honest. So...maybe it's time to close this thread. There's not a lot more that can be said without getting into the exact conversations that we wish to avoid.
-
You are right about that. I have looked extensively for models of our bikes. Die-cast, plastic, anything. There is just nothing available. I even contacted some manufacturers about having some made and was willing to buy a bulk quantity of them to re-sell but never even got a response from them.
-
That's pretty neat. Now she needs to make a model of your bike to go in it.
