    Lets run this back up top here Folks, we haven't had quite the success with this as we would like to see...so let me sweeten it up here. From now until the end of December anybody that buys a set of the 1st gen Driving light brackets or a pair of the R/K muffler brackets I will donate HALF of the sale cost to this. We can still send out care packages after Christmas as they always need stuff over there. Lets see if we can make the pot a little bigger, and let our boys know that we at VR.org give a damn about them

    Lewis, I just wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put into all the Vogel's. There are some folks that step up to the plate and swing for the fence. You always go the extra mile for us and I for one appreciate all that you do here for us

    Not a bad price, I have a similar black one that works great for those days that start at 35 degrees

    Looks good Rooster As far as having it Venturerider International...that's what it is. Many countries represented here and I too agree that the ring sounds good

    I have a set from JC Whitney http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/tf-Browse/s-10101/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2002576/p-2002576/N-111+10211+600014710/c-10111 I like them and they are holding up well, Kuryakyn's are nice, but they cost an arm and leg. I saved the money and had more for fuel to ride

    Have fun and be safe on it, we'll be leaving Michigan in 2 weeks with the '99 in tow to get some riding in down south....I have almost chewed through the leather straps!

    Not to climb on a soapbox here (but some will feel that way ) I would like to say something about our CEO. Some of you have personally met Freebird, I am fortunate enough that I live about 3 hours away and can spend time with him and his family. Don is a VERY good friend of mine, and like all of my friends, I will come to his side when anyone tries to challenge his autority here (Dont get PC with that statement) I heard it mentioned a couple times about giving someone a warning about inappropriate comments or behavior. Trust me when I say that we DO do that. There have been a few that have been warned about postings that were made. Don truly hates to do this, he is one of the nicest, easiest going folks you'll ever meet. I, on the other hand, agree with a couple of warnings and then your gone. I have no tolerence for idiots and have no problems if they are not here. We moderators do talk and together decide what actions, if any, should be taken to folks that cross the line. I have mentioned it before that YOU folks make this site what it is. The Moderators and Freebird just steer it sometimes, it's usually on cruise control. I too have to bite my tounge on a few posts as I dont get along with all views here, but thats life and it wont ruin my day. Thank you to all that enjoy this place and especially to Don for all his efforts to give us the best place on the web....for free! BTW...We do watch the troublemakers, and know who they are

    Good to hear Brother, it will be nice that you both will be in the same state now

    OK I want to buy a ticket to win this one

    Well Lonna and I did 725 miles in 25 hours to go riding in Canada not so long ago ....and we had ice cream to boot I would go farther for a weekend stay

    Jeff, Are you going to try and make it a true trike, or something along the lines of what Froggie has on his '99. I haven't forgot about our earlier conversation...just been swamped with work and I dont know of any kits by me to look at

    This website works because of all of YOU! It started out as a technical forum but quickly turned into a riding/eating club. The majority of the folks here have 1 thing in common that many other sites dont....respect for others opinions. I'll be the first to admit that I dont always agree with everyones opinion, but that is life and I deal with it. This site gives us hope, hope that we can all work on getting along and as different as we are, we can still enjoy these bikes, together. This place is very addictive, the only reason I'm not on here more than I am is my work schedule. I have a mission with this website, and thats to meet everyone that will be willing to meet me. It's good to hear that this place stirs your souls as it does mine

    I put a relay on them, I always do that with driving light on whatever I install them on.

    GW, Those are the same lights that I had on my '86 and at $20 they are a bargan
  20. Squidley
    Larry, The lights your looking at are nice, but man are they expensive! For the lighting watt question, I would go with the 35 watt bulbs. You cant notice from the difference with the naked eye and it will save the charging system much grief. I dont know if your specifically looking for a squared off looking light, but I had these round ones on my '86 and they work great. http://www.optronicsinc.com/proburners.htm The model I used was the Qh-75IT and I put 35 watt bulbs in them. I paid $20 at Walmart for them and just had to modify the base slightly. Just an option to think about

    I have PM'd him and hopefully he'll shoot me back a reply soon. We'll get it figured out and see if we can't rustle up a M&E out in the desert somewhere

    I do believe that this bike is an original color Wayne (WTHO) has an identical color scheme on his.

    I love it when you try to Buffalo me MamaMO...makes me laugh out loud

    Well Mini....He did join a Yamaha club Atleast the only one that really counts I am assuming that you have been in contact with him? I'm wondering if he has a scoot to be able to ride. I'm sure we could twist some arms in that area to maybe have a Meet and Eat I'll work on getting ahold of him and see what his stay is looking like. Thanks for stepping up and putting forth the effort to help him out

    Great ideas already, but I think that we need to talk with a big group like Abate or something along that line. Perhaps there is an idea similar to what is proposed here that we are unaware of. We have the winter to discuss it, I applaud the effort by all who have jumped ion here so far
