  1. I sure hope the VR forum rule about no political discussion... :confused24:Applies to Meet and Eats too. See you in a few hours Jeff. I hope I have enough money for lunch after that shopping trip to HF. Later, Scooter Bob
  2. Didn't see that one coming! Thanks, Scooter Bob
  3. Enjoy! While you're there, see if they have an RSV in the Demo fleet this year. Last year there were 2 RSV's at the track, mine from WI and the 2010 flame job in the tent, none in the demo fleet. Have a great time while you're there, Scooter Bob
  4. And I was just looking around at some benchtop milling and turning machines last weekend. Do you know if they have any of these on the showroom for viewing? This is gonna cost me. Probably be there no matter what, Later, Scooter Bob
  5. Did you try a ratchet strap around the tread area of the tire? Squeezing in the tread usually causes the beads to spread out. Just my , Scooter Bob
  6. Thanks for posting, but I'm a Jif Creamy guy:banana:
  7. Is it an enclosed mount, or open like the factory mount? If it's an enclosed one, that would be better than what I have now, and I would be interested. Later, Scooter Bob
  8. Here's the one I use. It's about 3-4" shorter than stock and wider. http://www.denniskirk.com/jsp/product_catalog/Product.jsp?skuId=231513&store=Main&catId=&productId=p231513&leafCatId=&mmyId= Later, Scooter Bob
  9. It won't be hidden the next time I see you Bob.
  10. I scored my own last year about this time (see page 57 of this thread). But, I set that one on Jan 1st, and it was the beginning of March, and I rode 2,000 miles to get it, so I didn't feel too bad about cheating. The waterfall is a good target, IMHO, just not been good weather around here. I do know of a couple within 30 miles of here, but supposed to get snowed on again today. Later, Scooter Bob The current target is... You, your bike and a waterfall. by DanOh
  11. Is it hanging up close to the bottom of the tank, on the right side, above the rear head, black tube, black knob, about 1/2-3/4" diameter? If so, it is the idle speed adjustment. You can tweak it as needed for temp, weather, or... to set the idle way up so you can start the bike moving with just the left hand on the clutch while holding a 4 foot long 2x2 in your throttle hand to bust potatoes that are on the top of a bunch of sticks along the track. (believe me, it can work) Gotta love the bike games at the ABATE of WI Summer Hummer. Later, Scooter Bob
  12. I'm hopin' for a rainout, and postponement for 1 week. Then I'll be down there to watch. Either Way, Have fun Jeff, Scooter Bob
  13. I get a kick out of all the other folks at work when gas prices go up. They ask how much cheaper it is to take the bike to work instead of the Dakota. I have to explain it's no cheaper at all, just takes longer to get home! Later, Scooter Bob
  14. Figures that little environmentally friendly car would have... Petals instead of Pedals. Later, Scooter Bob
  15. Mine loves the 50-55 puttin' on the two laners, even better two up, or at least with camping gear fillin' the back seat between me and the trunk. We've gotten several tanks in the 47-48 mpg range, and I got one over 49 ridin' down through MI on the way to the International last summer. But I've never gotten over 50 either. Later, Scooter Bob
  16. Cool! Later, Scooter Bob
  17. Ya, this was a fun thread to watch. Whose idea was this anyways? Did you think this up on your own Boss, or did the missus help? Congrats Kevin. :scratchchin:So.....What ya gonna get?? Later, Scooter Bob
  18. You take a bike in for overheating, and it takes a month and a call to Mamma Yamma to figure out the FAN isn't working??? I wouldn't go there again! Later, Scooter Bob
  19. Ya, but any luck on catchin' the Dbag that hit it???
  20. I put the two of us down for maybe's. If the weather is warm, both of us will be there.:banana: If it's cold, but roads are dry, I'll be there. If the roads are crap, have fun without us. Later, Scooter Bob
  21. :sign kewl::sign kewl::sign kewl:
  22. I had high hopes of seeing a rocket launch when I rode down to bike week last year. Every day I checked on the way down, they had pushed it out another day. I didn't have enough time to keep hanging around. Maybe next time. Godd luck on your trip, would be great to see, that's for sure! Later, Scooter Bob
  23. What's in Texas that you'd leave lovely Wisconsin??? Oh wait, warmer weather. That's why I'm leaving for there on March 23, and will be gone for close to two weeks. But that's just me, so don't let me hold up your plans. Later, Scooter Bob
  24. I feel your pain. I put on 125 miles on Saturday to score one, and already knew I was gonna be done playing again for a few days Later, Scooter Bob
  25. Dangit LILBeaver, you got me thinkin'. Might be an interesting idea for a different "Photo Album" Scavenger hunt. Just to see where folks have been.
