  1. Let me know if you run into problems, we'll get it figured out....we always do
  2. Karras, If I'm reading this right, you can slide the throttle grip over the handlebar, which is ok. But when you try to put the switch housing over the grip, it will not fit. Am I on the right track here? If so and your positive that none of the wiring of the switch is in the way, I would suggest that you file the flat ends which fit into the groove down some. If this isn't what you meaning then perhaps you could give me a call and we could talk it out over the phone. My # is in the VR assistance list
  3. Clay, What didn't they like about your hitch? If I'm not mistaken didn't you buy a Markland for your 1200 off ebay?? As long as it was made for the bike, and it was hooked up correctly, I dont see how they could protest. If you have some pics of the hitch on your bike post them up and we can look to see if there are any missing parts that your unaware of. I have to say that initially hearing this is a bit discouraging. Folks like the Bushtech, but I know that I personally wont be recommending them if there is some sort of holier than thou attitude on their behalf.
  4. I know it took me a while to get used to the one I had on the '99 last year when I bought it. The 130 is a great alternative for those with shorter inseams as the leveling links can make the bike a bit too tall. Just remember Practise makes perfect
  5. I dont know if I would go that far, we just need you around to help the site run smooth Good post Mark...really cool idea

    Be safe Bull...you have our #
  7. We did miss being with you folks, but had a good time with Bruce and Max. Never enough time in the week to do everything you want to...and the tooth fairy IS scary
  8. Good job Lewis! We are very proud of you for the effort you put into the St. Judes donation. It looks like you had a good bunch with you, thanks to all that were able to attend
  9. My first good one was on the USS Elmer Montgomery (FF1082) in the north Atlantic in October. Waves coming all the way over the ship to the flightdeck on that back. It didn't help that we were sub hunters with a 20' diameter sonar dish under the front keel. Ship would brak water in the front and crash down and the whole damn thing would shimmy side to side...that was 1 hell of a ride for 3 days
  10. Sorry we couldn't make it, but I know Gary N's family appreciated the showing of us at the funeral. As always...thanks for the good job you folks do, the members always make me proud to be one of this group
  11. That was very cool! Even though I didn't start driving till the early 80's I had my share of hot rods. My '67 Barracuda was the my favorite 340 Tripower with a Dana rearend and a Muncie 4 speed....that car would rip your head off!
  12. No thank you...that thing is uglier than sin!
  13. Hey Chuck....he was just being funny, he's not serious
  14. Sounds like a tough week sorry to hear of it all and I must have been asleep with your brother. Hopefully you can put it behind you and start to have an even keel to be on. Our condolences to your family.
  15. You bet, she's a keeper for sure I just dont know how a guy like "You" landed her She must have felt sorry for you
  16. Where is it located at Clay
  17. Thanks for all you have done with this Bruce, we'll have to play it by ear and see what shakes out. Hopefully we'll be able to join you folks afterwards.
  18. Here's another one of the 3 of us along the northern shore of Lake Erie.
  19. Steve, If you have a Paypal account, you can send something through it to Russell (Black owl)
  20. Now I know why I am getting all the PM's and emails about Gremlin Bells What we have is the Platnum Hooter, it is Russell's hair (Black Owl) that was chopped off several years back. I suppose you could say it wards off evil spirits
  21. Absolutely not! They are interesting but I'm still the same ahole I ever was. I appreciate your looking at them, but I just have a bigger mouth and follow through with things. I ain't nobody special...and once everyone meets me, they figure it out
  22. That was very good of her, I'm still dealing with Leslie's passing and I'm seriously thinking about a petition on changing the age requirement to get a DL

    My Best Friend

    Eck, That is the Irish Tombstone prayer...I post it up when tragedies hit close to home. If anyone would like a copy of it PM me and I'll email it out. Zill...sorry to hear about your friend, with Leslie Nantais passing away last week I too know how you feel
  24. Well.... My wife and I put on 725 in a 25 hour period yesterday But we have pushed 800 miles in a day a couple of times, those aren't real fun
  25. Here are some pics that I found of the 2 of them.
