That's the tank bib...I think he is looking for the trunk bib.

Flander Bar and Throttle Cable Box
Freebird replied to Sleeperhawk's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
For the life of me I can't find the part number that I used. Flanders did come out with a metric version though and the knurls did line up on mine. Also, the rubber dampers do work with the Flanders bars. -
I agree....you can drill them out without hurting anything but they really sound pathetic. You will be much better off keeping them stock and buying a set of Road King or other mufflers for it.

I don't carry but I believe in a persons right to do so if they have the proper training and etc. I have done a LOT of shooting in my life. I used to shoot hundreds of rounds per week including pistol and rifle. I love shooting but just haven't done it in a few years. I used to have a Rock Chucker reloader and loaded all my own ammo. It was a lot of fun. In my business travels, I get into some neighborhoods that I sometimes think that I should probably have a gun with me but have never had any problems yet. Of course, when I do it will be too late but I'll just continue and hope it doesn't happen. If I DID carry, I would never attempt to cross the border with a firearm. Our neighbors may not agree with our laws but we don't have to agree with their's either. I know that we all share a pride in our countries and as much as I don't feel that any other country has the right to tell us what our laws should be, I also feel that we don't have the right to tell you what yours should be either.

HA.....that's not fishing

Thanks to all of YOU. The bells are doing better than I expected and the donations have come in pretty fair. Thanks so much for each and every one of you. We aren't even close to the total amount that they need but I know that whatever we do will help a lot.

I watched both games. I really don't have a lot of interest since my favorite team is out of it but I still enjoyed the games. I was surprised with both games. I think that San Diego played a good game. They gave New England a much harder fight than I expected to see. As for the Packers and Giants, I thought the Packers would win that one so the Giants surprised me also. Like I said, I had no real preference but thought that all teams played very well. I thought that New England had the Superbowl all sewn up. They are still the favorites in my opinion but I think the Giants may give them a good fight. Anything can happen.

I have the OEM Yamaha passing lamps and on the rear, the Harley tail light/license plate bracket assembly. I'm also running the Pilot LED under the trunk. I've been running this way for about 7 years with no problems. Passing lamps are usually on all the time.

Well....I have to admit that I HAVE considered that. The only problem is, I would have to move without Eileen and that's a problem. You see...I'm getting old and she's still HOT!!!! I would probably end up as a bachelor or married to some old mean and ugly woman. Now, if you know any good looking women looking for an ugly old man.....I may give it some more thought. OH.....it would also be nice if she just happened to be rich.

We could fix that. WOW EDDIE...that's a GREAT offer. What a GREAT donation. When will you be here?

Hey folks...I CAN get her car in the garage. It was in the garage when I left and I parked it in the garage when I got home. The garage is not heated though. I'm sure it will thaw out some day.

You are a bad man....BAD BAD BAD.....

Had to go to the store this morning and decided to drive the wife's SUV. It was pretty dirty so I decided to run it through the automatic car wash. Should have been OK but the dryers were apparently not working very well so by the time I got home, I had a heck of a time getting out of the car. 4 degrees F right now and it sure doesn't take long for the doors on a car to freeze shut.

In honor of Leslie for ‘All’ our beloved fallen...
Freebird replied to dragerman's topic in Watering Hole
As we await spring to arrive, it was suggested that I revive this thread. What do you folks think? Do we have anybody here who is really good at organizing such things that might be able to take the lead on this? -
That's a good question. To be honest...I've never seen any being sold alone. Can't say that I've ever actually looked but sure haven't happened upon any. I just did a search on Ebay and came up empty.
-
First, WELCOME again, we are glad you are here. I do not have the vents and the pegs on my '99 but I've seen others here that do so I know that they will work.

Hey..I told you that I would accept the bid of $1550.00..so...what is the problem. Seriously, I'm glad you have found us and I certainly understand about entering the wrong amount. I've done it before myself. Thanks for bidding though.

Got this by email and found it to be very interesting. A little harsher language than you will see here but a good read. Real biker or just crazy? You decide. http://www.advrider.com/forums/showpost.php?p=6123596&postcount=445 and this is how it all started http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=230898

If I had to guess, I would bet that it a bogus email address and re-routes to another one somewhere.

This is a good report. I'm not too smart when it comes to wearing the proper gear and like my denim jeans. Also, these are EXPENSIVE. For those who like the best though, they sure sound good. http://www.webbikeworld.com/r4/motoport/police-kevlar-pants/

I love it. It is certainly one that I would have been attracted to. I'm sure you will be very happy and I am very happy for you.

Please note that somebody is trying to scam possible buyers in regards to the Guardian Bell auctions being held for Cliff. Here is the message being emailed. I want to sell this item as BUY IT NOW so please contact me right now with your Best Price so we can clear this deal today. Nice doing business with you! bcontacter@aol.com is the name being used. If you get such a message that appears to come from Ebay, it is a SCAM. I am NOT sending out any such messages. Thanks

Well....if anybody is really interested.....my '99 may be for sale. I won't know for sure for a couple of days though.
