  1. 75.00 an hour? Since you made me pay you cash under the table, I couldn't file that. Perhaps you'd like to come by and make up for my loss that I paid you and couldn't file????? Another thing I meant to mention.... Did you put that one special bolt in that holds the entire thing up???? Insurance company wanted to know names of workers in case this goes to court.... muahahaha. Mike
  2. He called today and informed me the total insured amount for materials + labor + shipping came in at 8950.00 with my 500.00 deductable. Once again Pekin insurance came through with a fair offer I'm pleased with. No hassle or arguements. They have been good to me. Check will be here tomm or next day and new parts to rebuild will be ordered. Life continues to be good and all is well in my universe. Ride safe and God Bless.
  3. Could'nt have said it any better than this so I won't try. Eck's got my choice.
  4. Thanks everyone for the concern. This whole thing will pan out fine. Called the insurance company today and their sending out an adjuster tomm. Bad part is we had to take it down the rest of the way because we have another storm possibly rolling in and I dont want the pieces blowing into farmers field and doing damage there. The agent told me if theres a possibility of it happening take it down but get pictures. As you saw it was the first thing I did. Owl, don't know if I'll make it to Britt for hobo days but if theres a chance I'll get in touch with you. Pete, sorry we couldn't get together this year but next year i am going to CO come hell or high water and here in Iowa we know high water. :rotf:take care all and God Bless. Mike
  5. Can't make it this year, going to Alaska on a cruise with my mom. Before dad passed away he promised mom he'd take her so us kids decided to pay her way. I'm the only one who can "escape" long enough to go so being the loving son I am... leave it alone... I pulled the short straw. Perhaps next year. I'll save any wiring I have for then Ride safe and God Bless. Mike
  6. Oh yea, I have to, wife says she'll personally build it if I won't (I think she wants her living room started where I've kept the extra stuff/tools etc... for remoldeling our home) already called the insurance company (hell, I called as it was falling down. Pekin insurance co. and they said "when the damage is done and you've accounted for all loses let us know, we'll send out a check" now THAT will be fantastic service if it is all true. We'll wait and see.
  7. I got my new quonset barn 3/4's up and a 60+ mph wind just ripped it apart 2 hours ago. )*^$%^&*%$# I feel better now. Thank God for insurance.
  8. My mom and dad had a dream to go on an Alaskan cruise and then dad passed away about 10 years ago. Well, mom never made it so I decided I would take her myself. I'm looking for a package for 2 people. Leave sometime in June-Aug total of 7-9 days. Mom needs a handicapped room beings she don't get around very well anymore. Any information would be appreciated. God Bless, Ride safe. Mike
  9. Don't know if I'll find any parts this week for it but if I come across any I'll let ya know.
  10. Lonestar, I sent out about 2 dozen to Skid already. Will have more in the next few days. If you don't mind so I don't boggle down skid with too much I might just send some your way too. Perhaps if one can't locate it and see what each item goes to the other just might. I truely appreciate the help. God Bless. Mike
  11. Short list sent, but the bulk of items will be here today so until you say ENOUGH I'll keep ya on speed dial lol. Sure you want to hear from me????? God Bless, Mike
  12. I picked up a bunch and I mean a BUNCH of NOS auto parts, mostly Chevy from an auctioneer who had them sitting in his warehouse for over 2 years. My problem is some of the starters, alternators and other parts aren't listed in ACDelco's web site anymore. My question is does anybody have a reference book listing the parts to number? Or could check some parts I have with a different means? Hate to let a starter worth 150.00 go for scrap prices because I don't know what it's worth. Any help will be appreciated and I will see if Santa couldn't find something in his bag for ya. Thanks, God Bless. Mike
  13. Ordering 3 chiming oblong thingamajigs. Love giving these out to friends and great people. Heck, I ordered 3 more from someone else on ebay so I had some to give and not run out like I did in VIP. Best part is giving them to people who would give the shirts off their backs if you needed it and they wouldn't think twice. Don, if you need more $ let me know, I think I covered it ok. Ride safe, God Bless, Mike
  14. Looking to buy a tractor in DeMotte Indiana. and need someone to possibly check it out for me before I send a deposit. Anybody close to the area and won't be too put out that could see if it's all promised would be much appreciated. Please call 515-351-1555 Thanks. Mike
  15. First off I hate to buy anything from china these days. Seems most products just don't hold up but went digging on ebay and I found this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130161077898 Might just be the answer to speakers and some bass with subwoofer. Sent question to him/her to see if subwoofer is also waterproof. I'll let you know what I find out. Ride safe, God Bless. Mike
  16. Oh yea, now that is a sweet looking bike. I got it's twin here in Iowa. But mine don't have the gonchos or tank bra or... Hmmm giving me ideas now lol. Congrats on the ride. Ride safe, God bless, Mike P.S. Welcome to the DARK SIDE muahahaha
  17. After getting my trailer wired at the VIP I came home and purchased this. It will stop feedback of electricity from the trailer to the scooter. Winter project I guess. Ride safe and God Bless.

  18. I like that one a LOT. Simple and yet artistic with the American flag inside the maple leaf showing the main location of Canada as top posting. Ya done good. Ride safe and God Bless. Mike
  19. I think it would be a lot of work for something that is already available. But if someone wants to take on the chore, then any added means of accessing information is always welcome. Ride safe and God Bless. Mike

  21. Illinois small town cops can be ruthless in the Quad Cities area. Thats the area bordering Iowa and Illinois on the river. Other then that I've ridden numerous times in Il and haven't seen anybody getting stopped for anything but being stupid. Mike
  22. If you need a pistol/gun lock let me know, I have a couple spares running around you can have for postage. Seems my new bride isn't into buying any new weapons soon so I think it's safe to part with one :rotf:Let me know. Ride safe and God Bless, Mike
  23. The top ones are the ones I have. Their great. Have had to retighten them a couple times but that don't mean I had them cranked all the way up like I should have. Their well made and shine up nice. Mike
  24. Sarge, I bought an am currently modifying a spare backrest and luggage rack for my 05 RSTD with this trunk from same company http://www.mutazu.com/products.php?cat_id=2&menu=DB%20Trunk%20Series&s=prod.php I'm hoping to get it painted to match the Mistress before going to Minn at the end of month. For the bucks it's a pretty good deal. I wanted the extra turn signals on mine. I also got the wiring instructions for mine, I bet you could use the same color code for less wires if you want me to send it to you email. Ride safe, God Bless Mike
  25. Tigger, I bought 5 Speedohealers from link Gibvil sent you and passed them onto members here except one for myself. The folks at http://www.sporttour.com/motorcycle_accessory/speedohealer.htm are excellent to deal with. If enough folks were interested I could contact them again and see what kind of deal I could work out for folks on here. Ride safe and God Bless. Mike
