  1. Good to hear!! Don't rush things now.
  2. :crying::crying:
  3. Got a few in this morning as sandman not on job. Prayers Up!!!
  4. Nothing is faster than the old Faded Blue Beast!!! I couldn't find a headlight that would stay up with her!!! And had to plan tomorrows rides a day ahead of time!!! She was quick!! Nothing matches your 1st 1st Gen!!! AND SHE WOULD DO 110 MPH IN 3rd GEAR!!!
  5. Have a GREAT One Bob!!! Lot of Great people born in Aug, :Happy Birthday:
  6. Another long night in E R. Prayers Up!!!!
  7. Done while forcing piece of wood to fit boat. Prayers Up!!!
  8. Nope!! Might be worth something restored but I hate to think of hunting parts.
  9. Yeah I was thinking of riding over but warden not doing great. Mine is only a 12 ft rowboat Mike. About 50 yrs old. Redoing all the wood trim and the seats. Old flat bottom boat handles better than anything I ever tried to paddle around.
  10. I was watching to see if anybody was there. Guess I'll work on the boat...
  11. Venture parts are not real hard to find but you got to remember 1st Gens can be 30+ yrs old. In my opinion a 1200 gold wing don't even come close to a good 1st Gen. But then what do I know???
  12. Makes me jealous but great reading!!! Gramps....Seems I've heard that. 22 grandkids and counting!!!
  13. I get the 10 per cent at Lowe's but didn't even know they kept Sea-Foam. I buy a gallon every spring when Tractor Supply put it on sale. And I have the Startron on the shelf. I went thru a nightmare a few yrs back with a dirty fuel system and learned a lot. P O had just spent 600 bucks on a carb rebuild. I learned from that one and did a lot of playing with all kinds of cleaners. I don't use Sea-Foam as much as I did. I mix my own cleaner and it works although I was called Stupid for doing so. Keeping these systems clean eliminates a bunch of problem with these things. I had read about the Mineral spirits but hadn't got around to that one. Marvel Mystery Oil is a Great old one that won't break the bank.
  14. Sounds too close to a Political appointment to me!! And whats a polished bike???
  15. All the packing material I've seen on here seems a bit pricey for what it is. Is there a sub that don't break the bank. The State thought I was living too good so they chopped me pretty good. Gonna have to make a new plan. But anyway I would like to take the edge off the sound coming out of those Bubs but its not that bad. If it costs me too much I'll just turn the radio up!!!
  16. Good news. She is still in our prayers.
  17. Sounds good!! I should have known better than trying to give advice to a Pro!!! I think you got it. I'm getting away from the Sea-Foam as much as I used to use it because of the price of the stuff now. Marvel Mystery Oil will keep a system as good as the Sea-Foam if it is clean to start with. Would love to see that thing.
  18. Got a few in this morning while crying about Ashville. Prayers Up!!!
  19. WOW!! Now that you have almost ruined it i'll give you 100 bucks for it!!!! LOL You know I'm kidding. Great job. I have one planned and hope I can get into the detail you did. Pics of those carbs are nice. You will Sea-Foam it when back togather? Go to Wally World and get a can of BerryMan's Chem Tech and give it a 1/2 can in the 1st tank. It is a little stronger than Sea-Foam and I don't like to use a lot of it or very often. I soaked rubber pieces in it for a week and they were tacky to the touch. But us it to get those tight places in there shining and then keep a little Se-Foam now and then. That thing is a beauty!!! Not many would have tried that and fewer would have gotten the results you did!! CONGRATS!!! I think you are qualified to sit with the Wrenches!!
  20. Good run around bike. Buy it and Sea-Foam it hard. Probally will cure.
  21. Got a few in while making grub run!! Prayers Up!!!
  22. There are very few 1st Gens around here. Passed a dark blue light blue(89?) one at the Southridge shopping Mall in Charleston, West Virginia today!! Couldn't get turned around!! Anybody????
  23. Blast It!! Plans went belly up!! You guys have a great time. I'm gonna miss this one....
