    I had Earl (Skydoc) remove the helmet locks under the trunk and use those two flanges to mount a flat SS plate to install a Custom Dynamics light bar. I don't have a pic of it on this computer, as I am on the road this week. But I will take a pic of it and post it on Friday, when I am home. It looks good and looks like it belongs there. Jim

    I didn't understand a word of what you did other than I know what "LED" is!? If I send you my radio, can you convert mine to those pretty red lights??? For a fee, of course. Jim

    Steve: I have one of those chrome pieces you are looking for. It's in my storage area, so I will look for it this weekend and check it for you. If it is in one piece, you can have it. I'll get back to you this weekend. Jim

    I own more than one because the law says I can only have one wife!.....and everyone needs to collect something! Seriously, I bought the 83 on a whim, riding by one day on my GW and bought it from a guy's front yard. I liked the performance and ride and decided to buy a newer one. Found the 89 on this Forum and decided to do a complete overhaul on it. Will finish it this winter and then will probably keep it for a few years, as I am getting ready to retire. Probably will trike it when I can't swing my leg over the seat anymore. I am going to sell the 83 Blonde shortly because I can't ride more than one at a time. Jim

    I had an oil leak on my 83 VR and it turned out to be a warped cover. Pull the cover and lay it on a flat surface or use a flat steel piece to check and make sure the cover is flat. I replaced the cover and it corrected the problem.

    My 83 Blonde has 65K on the frame and 35K on the motor(86). (It's going up for sale). My 89 has 35K Never enough time to add more miles.

    Check with Skydoc_17, he had some yellow covers on his bar ends on his scoot. He may be able to tell you where he got them, and if other colors are available. Jim

    Brenda: I put the microwave and TV in myself. I have never used the TV, so took it out after 6 months. and use the microwave to warm meals when on the road. I just work part time now - 2 days a week, so I don't spend much time in the truck anymore. I prefer a Volvo because they are quieter than most other trucks and , I think, ride better. The company switched to Intl (Prostars) and the drivers didn't like them, so they switched back to Volvo. The IH were shorter wheelbase and the sleepers were smaller and less HP. The company had two brand new 2011 IH's that sat for three months in the parking lot, because no one wanted to drive them. Because of anti idling laws, the company is fitting all the trucks with APUs or all electric units. My truck has all electric units for heat and A/C and electricity. It allows me to sleep without the truck running and is very quiet. The system is recharged while you drive, from the main alternator on the truck.

    I think it should be an inground pool. All you have to do is dig a little deeper(don't forget the deep end). It might be a "first" on this Forum. The first member to have an inground pool in their living room.

    I don't use the clutch at all when upshifting or downshifting on my 89 VR. I just use the throttle to "relax" the gears and then shift. My upshifts are smooth but sometimes the downshifting is a little uncomfortable because I don't always match the RPMs exactly, but I ride 99% of the time alone, so it's not a problem for me. I only use the clutch to stop and start the bike. I also owned two Hondas and shifted them the same way (no clutch) and feel they shift a little smoother than the VR, but they had 60K + miles on them, so I don't know if they can be compared with the 89 VR because it only has 34K miles.

    Bob: Happy belated Birthday! I was working and out of town and didn't have a wi-fi hookup. I have a bottle of wine which we will share at the WNY Rally and swap lies. Happy Birthday and I wish many more for the nicest person on this Forum.......... Jim

    I own two VR's and I love them. They take some work because of their age, but worth every penny. I have no qualms about hopping on my bike and going cross country. But, the best thing about this forum is the people here. They are the best!!! I couldn't ask for more help or parts or encouragement from the great people on this Forum. Everyone here has been so helpful to me with all my problems. I can't say enough good things about the people on this forum. As everyone here says: It's the best $12 you will ever spend".!! Jim

    I need a head count by Thursday for the cruise on Saturday. I need to provide the cruise company the number of seats to reserve. Please sign up by Thursday morning, if you are coming to the M & E, so that I can order the food for the meal after the cruise. I hope to see all of you there! Thanks Jim
