  1. I'm sure that I'm not the only one who lost a ton of money last year in the stock market. I was down about 30 thousand dollars. I've always heard that you should buy when stocks are low, so I kept buying when it looked like the bottom was just gonna keep getting lower. I just checked my balance today and was pleasantly surprised to learn that I'm back up to about where I was before. I'm sure I'm not the only one. I hope everyone else is making a comeback too.
  2. Well, I'm happy to be off work for a week, and to be out of that rain. It was terrible riding through the mountains. It was after dark, and pouring rain. I'll never do that again (on purpose). I'll put it off until the next morning. It's supposed to be nice down here the rest of the week, and theres lots of chrome to look at.
  3. Well, Karen and I rode 650 miles south through the cold and rain to get to Daytona. I woke up this morning and it's 50 degrees outside. I heard that it's some kind of record cold snap down for this time of year. I'm ready for some warm air.
  4. My heart is with you. What happened to your son is one of a parent's worst nightmares. Hopefully your son will be OK emotionally after all of this.
  5. I hooked up an intercom on my bike so Karen and I can talk. It also has a a place to plug into a radio. I have tried a small radio and an I-phone, and I can hear them just fine, but Karen can't hear the radio at all. What would I need to do to make it where she can hear it? I bought it from Sierra electronics. I think it's IMC brand.
  6. I don't see any place to mount a cassette player.
  7. How did it come loose? Did the thumbscrew fall out?
  8. OK, I'm calling hi-jack...
  9. Yeah, I saw that on their web sight & emailed them, but haven't gotten an answer back from them yet. I was hoping someone here with Vista had ran into the same problem.
  10. I know several of you have the Go Pro cameras. I just got one and when I play back the videos there's no sound. I have Winders Vister (that's East TN. for Windows Vista). Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? TIA Jim
  11. If you can find a reverse spiral drill bit the same diameter as the bolt (minus the threads) you can drill all the way through the bolt. First with a small bit then with the reverse bit. It may back out while you're drilling it. If not then just finish drilling it, then run a tap in to remove the bolt threads. If the bolt is that soft, it should drill pretty easily.
  12. I rode all last winter. Karen and I rode to Asheville last winter, and I grabbed a towel from our room and told her I was going down to wipe the dew off the seat. When I got down there, it was ice instead of water, but I didn't tell her. It was a little brisk that morning, but it felt great not being caged
  13. Yeah, I've been using Firefox for years. I used to have a lot of problems with viruses and other junk on IE. I have never even had my computer freeze with Firefox like it used to do with IE.
  14. Wow, I bought mine last December for $280, they've gone up a lot in less than a year.
  15. The kayak! The most fun I ever had fishing, was the time I was bass fishing in a canoe on Norris Lake.
  16. It looks like a 1960 futuristic design.
  17. Mine was exactly like that. When it would get wet the water would act as a lubricant and it worked fine. I finally got around to squirting some oil on it and it's good. I don't know the proper way it should be lubed.
  18. That's nothing. I have a cat that "followed my daughter home" 13 years ago. His name is Kitty.
  19. After I re-read your post, it sounds like you're lugging it. I came off a V-twin too, and when I first got this bike I thought there was something wrong. When I'd come out of a curve and roll on it would thump/thump/thump like it had a bad set of points . After I got used to it though, it's hard to make it do it on purpose.
  20. If it's not running right, I'm sure it would be covered, unless you're running diesel fuel or something... Where is McKenzie, TN
  21. So you're the one who eats coucous! I was wondering who eats that stuff...
  22. Mine used to roar like an Army truck with Bridgestones when I leaned in the turns. I just thought it was something I'd have to live with. As soon as I changed and put a new E3 on the rear, it was like a new bike. I couldn't wait to get the front one off and get an E3 on there too. Not only are they quieter, but it handles much better.
  23. There's no reason for a dealer to try to discredit you. They get paid for doing warranty work, just like non-warranty. Sometimes it's it's just the arrogant personality of the shop foreman. I'm glad you found someone with enough sense to look at it.
  24. Hey Rocket, if you decide to implement all of these suggestions, I know a guy with a W900 Kenworth and a 45' van trailer for sale...
