  1. I've got all the stuff. Don't need to put the bike on a lift (or adapter) to do the valve shims. probably should have a pair of new gaskets though. I should have my kit back in a couple weeks, am sending it out in the morning to a member who asked to borrow it.
  2. at the very-very bottom under additional options of a new thread.
  3. good thing you've got that long and steep driveway. Probably moisture in the carbs is my thought.
  4. prayers sent at her age,she should heal quickly.
  5. I don't think it would fit. Or at least I'd be very surprised. why don't you buy one and try it and let us know how it works? and post pictures...
  6. You're probably ok extending to 5,000 miles with synth oil and filter changes. It takes all of 10 minutes to do yourself. Walmart has everything I need. I usually do it at 4,000miles but the oil is quite clean when it comes out also, the service manual probably has how to disassemble the fairing to get at the headlight bulb in another chapter. And there are some mistakes in it. I use both the Yamaha and a Clymer and compare them for anything I want to do. And check the tech section of this forum as well.
  7. Make sure it works reliably and shoots ok and you're comfortable shooting with it. If not, its probably worse than no gun at all. While one could make a case for just scaring someone else with the gun in your hand, a gun that doesn't work right is just as likely to elicit a deadly counter response.
  8. which reminds me I need to get a couple gallons of kerosene for my emergency heater. I always need it at least 1 night in February or March.
  9. front only on the 2nd gen Venture unless modified.
  10. looks like Manhattan during a subway strike.
  11. I think Gary is asking if the bolt holes line up?
  12. Maybe the US government is what causes the heart attacks? oh oh .... political thread....
  13. The Honda CX500 I had once upon a time was one of the best MC's I've ever owned for putting around within a few hundred miles. Good luck with the deployment, and congrats on getting the rocker.
  14. was that a government censored school?
  15. I got rid of Progressive as my rates kept going up every year.
  16. No liability is risky. if you are judged at fault in an accident with someone else, that person could sue you for damages and their medical expenses, etc. Liability on 3 bikes thru Dairyland is less than $100/yr. back to the origonal post about an OBD attached device. I'll bet any amount of money that in 10 years all new cars will have satellite tracking in them and the equivalent of the airplane black box. oh. and read the entire article about Progressive and its ex-CEO.the rebuttal of some of the claims in the first part come later in a follow-on piece.
  17. sunday Jan 29th is ok, also the next weekend both days. Lets see what the weather looks like. Could do it here, or maybe meet at Pooles in Ellijay for some BBQ and do it in their parking lot.
  18. should be able to find an RSTD for $5k. And there have been a few RSVs sell for that.
  19. did you try a small stick of TnT ?
  20. prayer sent for Dorothea. may the doctors be successful in their work.
  21. it was a very good year. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwv-DxOPhSc]"IT WAS A VERY GOOD YEAR" - YouTube[/ame]
  22. nothing finer than spam and grits for breakfast....
  23. so, were the bikes using Avons or Dunlops ?
