  1. How kind. The thing is that I'm not really sure what I need. I've never used one before. I saw a thread a month or so ago that showed a link to Ram mounts, and they seemed pretty cool. The side grippers were adjustable to fit around any buttons on the phone. I was hoping that someone more knowledgeable could tell me what works best for them, and I'd just do the same. I'm looking to mount my Razor Max, I'd think on the left handlebar, where I can see it and manipulate it well enough to use the gps and the music capabilities of the phone.
  2. I'm looking to order a Ram mount for my Motorola Razor Max HD. I'm planning on using it as a gps and for music as well. I went to the website to order, but one of the questions is for arm length. Any opinions? I'll be using it on my 06 Black Cherry.
  3. Wow That boy's got skills.
  4. Just ordered a set for my 06 Black Cherry. Thanks for the info.
  5. I like the sound of it. Makes for a great excuse to get an organized ride together.
  6. That's a great lookin' Venture for a great price! I forwarded him a link to this thread, so I'm sure he'll see it. Thanks:cool10:
  7. It didn't take long for this to get off topic....... Although it does remind me of Dolly Parton watch I once had..... It didn't keep very good time, but it sure was fun to wind...
  8. A good friend of mine has been looking to buy an old school touring bike. I tried leading him to a Venture, which he was all for, but I couldn't find one close to him, and he's not willing to travel to buy one. I happened upon a Cavalcade that's not too far from him, and for kicks I sent him a link to it, and he fell in love. Granted, it's a nice bike, but it's not a Venture. I cautioned him that it's my feeling that, because there's not that many around, and he's not likely to do much work on it himself, that finding parts and a mechanic to work on it may be a problem. It could be kinda cool though, since I can ride my First Gen...my cousin rides a 87 Goldwing, and with this Cavalcade in the mix, it'd be cool to have 3 old school bikes riding together. Now I think I need to talk the 4th member of our group to find an old Kawasaki Voyager.....wouldn't that be something. At least I'll have the fastest bike out of the bunch.
  9. Great news ! Thanks for opening up with an explanation of a situation that had a lot of us fearing the worst. It may be kinda counter-intuitive, but if you can work through problems that bring you so near to ending the relationship, then it shows how deep rooted and strong your marriage really is. I think most of us married folk question why we're married, and sometimes think of, or even threaten the big "D", but to put anger aside, and thoughtfully look at what you have shows a level of maturity and dedication all too rare in todays society. Personally, I've thought it many times when I was younger, but as I've aged I've come to realize how lucky I am, and how petty I was to be worried about the little things. Been with the same gal going on 30 years now, only married for the last 13, but at this point I'm pretty sure we'll be together for the duration.......unless she keeps leaving her half full coffee mugs on the coffee table....lol.... I doubt you know me; I've been to 3 of the MDs, but there was always too much going on for me to push my way into getting any face time with you, but was always impressed with the shindig you put together. Your post brightened my day. All the best to you and Eileen.
  10. Seems pricey, but ya don't see one of these everyday. http://columbus.craigslist.org/mcy/4394875924.html
  11. The only critters I send to a better place are groundhogs. My home is built on stilts, and those ba%$#^&ds dig holes all around the foundation, and have gotten under the house, chewing wiring, tearing up insulation and such. I live in the country, so I use a mini 14 to do the deed. If you live in an area where you're not allowed to discharge a firearm, they do make subsonic .22 rounds that are pretty quiet, and very effective on something as small as a squirrel. They're a bit more expensive, and not intended for target shooting, but rather for just the sort of problem you're having. Happy hunting.
  12. Those look and sound great! Where'd ya get 'em and what'd ya pay?
  13. The guy on the ground isn't wearing hearing protection either.....stupid...
  14. The smoke is where the road is burning from the force applied to it from my back tire. Kinda like the roadrunner used to....remember the flame trail he'd leave when he was running really fast ? Beep Beep Zip BANG !

  16. I'm sittin' here watching Star Trek Edge of Darkness, and I can't help but notice that when the Enterprise takes off and goes to warp speed, where all you see is a smoke trail and a dot within a fraction of a second, it really looks like my first gen when I do a hard acceleration. Just an observation.
  17. I generally only keep one loaded. I don't like to keep the springs in the magazines compressed long term. But that's just me.
  18. Come on in.....the water's fine...
  19. FYI: I sent a message to the e-bay seller, and he says the chrome horns are currently out of stock.
  20. Dingy will probably chime in on this one.
  21. When I read the title, I thought maybe you had a Harley, and did some performance mods.

    The same reason you Drive on a Parkway, and Park on a Driveway.
  23. I think I'd try running a drywall screw into it, and pulling it out.
  24. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/03/13/red-light-camera-at-florida-hospital-ticketing-those-seeking-emergency-help/ The gubment does this out of concern for the citizens. They're doing it for our protection. Just keep repeating that and maybe you can convince yourself of it.
  25. I pretty much already know what the responses will be, but is it really worth doing the swap? Is there any downside to doing the swap? Are the higher revs at cruising speed (70 mph) a negative factor? I've had my first gen for a while now, and jut bought my second gen late last Summer, and haven't ridden it enough to know if I feel I need the upgrade or not. The first gen runs great, and while the second gen isn't as fast as Ol' Blue, it seems ok. Opinions?
