    fuel petcock

    Steve S replied to a topic in General Tech Talk

    Now that depends,,, how far away from a gas station would you like to be stranded??? Think of the reserve setting on your petcock as a safety device. This safety device will keep you from being stranded miles from a gas station. Would you disarm a safety device if you knew that there was a chance that you could be stranded in the middle of no-where, not knowing which way to go to get help??? :bang head: By the way, you aint lost if you aint out of fuel...

    Well, the Warden and I have made it home from the Grand Canyon trip. It was WONDERFUL. There is no way that I would have the words needed to describe the majesty of that marvelous wonder. Not only were the sights wonderful, but the people we met along the way were great too. We did 4500 miles in ten days, but the highlight of my trip was using my metric tools to repair a Harley that had broken down on the road in northern Az. I will post more details and the pics later, right now I am going to the recliner to rest some more.

    ...are climbing aboard the Black Beast and heading west early tomorrow morning. I wish we were able to head north to the Venturerider's Rally, but the lure of the Grand Canyon won out. We will be thinking of everyone as we travel and look at the sights. The only regret that I will have this week is not getting to see the disapointed faces when my winning ticket for the trailer is drawn. :stirthepot: Our prayers are with everyone that is traveling this week. I pray that we all have a safe trip and return to our families safe and healthy. When we return I'm sure we will have a couple of hundred pics to post. Everyone be safe. Steve and Donna Stewart

    I read that the take off speed of the new V-Max was 0 to DEAD in 3.7 seconds. Man, I wanna try one REALLLL bad. :bang head:

    I don't think I could. I need to finish out my garage and that will about do it.

    Thanks anyway.

    Hello Folks. I have a 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan Nomad posted for sale in the classifieds. It was my son's bike that I bought from him a couple of years ago when he went back to school. If anyone is interested, it is a very good ride. I got some nice pics of it posted too. Thanks
  10. Steve S
    Thanks Eck. I'll give that a try.

    I posted this in "Wanted to Buy" section, but I figured I would take up everyone's time by posting it in here too. I am in need of a radio control housing for a 2nd gen. Mine has cracked where the mounting screws are and is getting very shaky. If anyone has one that they would part with, with or without the control, please let me know. Thanks

    I have had my Black Beast well over the 120 speedo mark several times. That is not an accurate speed, but it sure the heck is faster than 90 mph.

    Good job Dude. Maybe she will listen to you next time. NOT. I hope she gets well soon so she can get back to that yard work. LOL:dancefool:

    I did the calculations on the towing weight to the towed weight ratio. The numbers I came up with are exactly the same weight as a good... ...COFFIN

    You done right dude, but I don't think I would have been as nice as you were. I would have at least spilled my Coke across the salesman's desk (after I talked about the owner's family tree that didn't branch) and on the nice carpet, for wasting 5 hours of my time. Then I would have had to explain just exactly what I thought of him trying to gouge me for 200 bucks. And do all of this while maintaining a Christian attitude(that's the hard part). We have a similar situation at home. JPM Motorsports, our Yamaha/Victory dealer, will do anything they can to help people. The Honda/Kawasaki dealer doesn't care if your ride sits for 3 weeks waiting on an oil change. I hope you have better luck with the next one you visit.

    That is great news Sleeperhawk. It's good to hear that not all dealers are "stealers".

    Beer, that is just way too cool dude. You are one heck of a fabricator. But one problem, I didn't see the cooler. By the way. You have a PM.

    Seeings hows I live on the Ky, Tn border, I would be more than glad to participate in a trailer relay... TO MY HOUSE!!!!!!
  19. Steve S
    Brother, there is NO pressure on you at all...
  20. Steve S
    Yeah, what she said.
  21. Steve S
    Reiny, the Warden said she will send you a check for 3 more tickets, BUT you have to promise her faithfully that SHE will have the winning ticket. She says that you should just send the gift certificate right on down. If for some reason you should accidently give her the wrong tickets, I would head for higher ground, for she has the temper from HELL!!!!(She says she dont fool around unless it's to her benefit.):stirthepot:

    If your switch is getting that hot you may be running too much amprage through it. Do you have ALL of your accessories on seperate circuits with relays? If not that may be your problem. Most all ignition switches used now are very light and any new circuits need to be put on a relay and not run through the switch. Oh, you will need to change that switch. It's gonna fail on you. Probably sooner than later.

    After checking out the link in the message above, I have a really, really stupid question here. If the moderators think it is too sensitive, please delete it. Why would a "White Bike Week" be considered prejudiced and racist, and a "Black Bike Week" not be?????????? :think: I'm not trying to start any political debates, but it has always bothered me that some groups can advertise this way and others can't.

    This may be a REAL stupid idea,:bang head: but check the vent hose coming off the tank. Make sure it is open. Not crimped or stopped up. I think it comes out under the left lower fairing. I was reading these posts and the idea came to me that maybe pressure is building up somewhere??? Like I say, it may be a total waste of time.

    I have never been to MB and really don't care to go. With their attitude toward bikers, I can think of a lot more places to spend my money. I have done the "Sturgis" thing and have no desire to try that again. Now Daytona I enjoy. It seems to be spread out enough to be able to get around to the different vendors and shows. The crew that I go with is usually in bed by 9:00 so we sleep through the rowdy times. I do have a question about the Atlantic Beach Rally. I have never heard of it. Where is it held, what group sponsors it and who attends?
