pour it out ?? are you kidding, there was 3 or 4 good gulps left, way too much to waste, besides knats don't drink that much -

We keep tall glasses in the freezer and I had a beer with my dinner at home this evening. I didn't finish it and took it to my desk while I surfed the net. When I picked it up to take a swig I noticed a dark spot amidst what was left of very little foam. I knew I hadn't sprinkled pepper in it so I got a spoon and got the culprit out. It appeared to a knat - an obviously drunk knat. I watched it walk in circles in the spoon for a few minutes and decided that our play date was over. We said our goodbyes - at least I think he said goodbye, he was nodding -

gonna find out about the long trips in just a few minutes. Randy ( on his Wing) and me (on my Venture) are headed to Paris Tennessee just moments from now. I'll try to have a comparison report when we get back.

You are absolutely RIGHT it's all Linda's fault !! :stirthepot:

Basically, you see the same things I see- The 1800 Wing is a heck of a bike with regard to mechanics but comfort is not there imho. I don't need the mechanics of the wing as I'm happy with the Venture. Actually @ 67 I'm too old to really worry about it.

can I mow your yard while I'm down there ?

We should be leaving sometime this fore-noon, figure on getting to you sometime tomorrow. I'll call you tonight when we stop, should be able to figure a time frame then. He has a heck of a time getting away from his office, especially when it's hooked on his waist.

Nice pics - She did pretty good for being on a bike and don't feel bad about Gail's speed with the camera, I forgot to even bring mine how's that for speed ??

My son is happy with his bike and the brake pedal isn't really the problem. It's my artificial knee replacement, it just barely bends enough to fit the floor boards. I just don't think that I could be happy/comfortable on a wing. Did I mention that I had seven different 1500 GoldWings ?

As far as I'm concerned, I have the perfect ride in my Venture. I'm really not concerned about how quickly I can go fast, the Venture does it just fine.

just an observation. Yesterday I took my sons '05' Black Cherry 1800 to get a rear tire installed. The first thing I noticed was the size of the mirrors, I LIKE them He has foot boards on his bike and that brings up the second point. You have to raise the foot board to get to the kickstand and then put it back down. On the other side is the brake paddle and EVER YTIME I raised my foot from a standstill to put it on the foot board I hit the brake. Then I had to bend my knee more than I'm used to just to place it on the board. Very uncomfortable ! The third item is a second positive ! I absolutely love the fuel injection response when I twist the throttle :thumbsup: Didn't like the seat at all

I sent mine to my wife ONCE it came back looking just like it did when I sent it !

67 isn't old except when getting up first thing in the morning and several other things that I can't remember right now

Today I was preparing to go to Tennessee to get Monty's trailer and I noticed that the tag on my Venture had expired LAST JANUARY I've been to Michigan, Indiana, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and of course Ohio this summer so far. Fortunately my riding habits didn't draw the attention of the Police in any of those states or I may right now. After a lot of scurrying around I managed to get a valid sticker and get it on the bike. To some it's not really a big deal, however, had I been involved in an accident, regardless who's fault, it would have been my fault because I was illegally operating a vehicle on public roads. All sorts of things come to mind and NONE of them were of a good nature. guess I'd better start paying attention to more than riding and tire pressure.

Here's mine - has been since I got out of the Army in '63'

Good to see you guys again and nice to meet that fine young lady on the beautiful V Star. Linda and I had a great time and http://www.lehmans.com/ was awesome. Nice thing about the area is there are sooooo many roads with varied scenery and the cage traffic is minimal (except in Berlin). Wish I had been able to get a picture of that little pony pulling the cart with the 2 amish girls. that was really neat -

You see Squidley - I was confused His statement - To those of you who ride the more beautiful and nimble of the Venture lineup, made me think he was talking about us Second Gen riders -

Tapatalk for Blackberry?
Hummingbird replied to Freebird's topic in Computer help and tips for using this site.
I've had a Blackberry Curve for well over a year, I'm still finding features that I didn't know were in it. My only complaint with it is that I can't surf and talk at the same time and sometimes I need to do that when I'm away from my lap top.
