  1. Hey FreezyRider, I am comming down to Fort Wayne on April 14th-May 2nd. Not sure room # or any details yet. Later-
  2. Congrads, excellent choice. Welcome again to our wonderful site with great people. Just remember not to shift it like a v-twin, wind her up a bit or she will buck you. Ride Safe and have Fun. Later-
  3. Going to Fort Wayne, Indiana for three weeks of job training. Staying at the Marriott Courtyard off exit 111b, Lima Road & I-69. Just wondering what the area is like and who is around there for a M & E? I was thinking of riding the RSV down and do some riding after class. Later-
  4. Hey Charlie, thats what I like about you, stirring the pot again. But, no matter what Brad & Lonna buy they are Welcome at our house. The best thing about this site, is the Great People on it. Most of us do not care what others ride, just glad they ride. Later-
  5. I have the Fishtail Pipes on mine also. Bought them thru JC Whitney three years ago. Unbaffled and loud, but deer here me and so do cagers. I am on my second pair of baffles trying to lower the sound down just a little. A set of quiet baffles will help, my Harley buds say there to loud when we they get up beside me. Later-
  6. Hey dray, glad you was able to ride bud. I put on almost 400 miles last weekend. Beautiful weather, bikes everwhere downstate. Oh the second bike, must be and a antique. Later-James
  7. Actually Don, your thinking is right on. As we speak, Harley is working on building a Touring model like the Ultra Classic with a liquid cooled engine. They will start out with a full dresser, and if sales are good, they will produce the liquid cooled engine onto other models. The delays of this new bike is because, they have not figured out how to duplicate the current sound in a liquid cooled engine. You know, potato, potato, potato, which is what Harley is known for. Harley truly believes that if the V-Rod would have had that potato sound, they would have sold thru the roof instead of slow sales. The reason Harley-Davidson says it is producing this new bike is to switch Metric owners over to Harley-Davidson. Expect to see this new edition from Harley by the 2011 model year. Later-
  8. Hey Gary, really glad to see you riding again. Sure nice to seeing you at the Michigan M & E in Baycity. Later-
  9. Peggy, I think you and mini are right about that tattoo. It should say "YAMA MAMA", that is, if you want one that is well respected. Later-
  10. Hey Peggy & Ron, good luck with your choice. We have good friends that have gone to Harley and love the same bike and color your buying. I am not in charge of this site but, like dray said: you are now a lifetime member once you join. Just remember, if you see any Harley owners starting to throw rice under our RSV's, just remind them they may want to save it for oil leaks on there own. :rotf: But seriously, we wish you all the best, and please visit. Later-
  11. Thank You Dick and Carol for being such wonderful host of this M & E. Charlene and I had a lot of fun spending time with everyone. Nice to see people driving as far as Canada and southern Michigan to come to this event. Glad to see Joe and Mike braved the cold to make us look like a motorcycle group. Later-
  12. The EPA will have a Field Day with this one. And you teese me about ridding the Horses. When you start it up does it Sh*t Fire. Later-
  13. Thanks Brad for keeping us informed. Later-
  14. I believe for many of us who ride alot it would be these Items: 1) Correct the Top Heavyness 2) EFI 3) Reverse 4) Lower the Drivers Seat to 26" or 27" 5) Pull Back of Handlebars 6) Improved Stereo & Speakers 7) ABS Brakes 8) Detachable Fairing & Trunk 9) Little Engine Power Improvement 10) Keep current Dash Look, but add gages like a Tach, Oil, Coolant, etc. 11) Keep 5 year Unlimited Milage Warranty
  15. Hey Dray, I made one of those. My Carbs were so out of balance that the fluid Instantly sucked all the way up the tube and into the carb. I had to quickly hit the Kill Switch. After several attempts at this with the homemade one I decided to purchased a Carbtune. Hope it works for you bud. Later-
  16. Thank You Don!!! The Patches look great, having it sewed on this week. Later-
  17. and to conserve electric energy, there bringing back the 8 track.:rotf:
  18. Between 35 to 42 mpg. Wife and I trip to SC, bike fully loaded, around 38 mpg. Get above 78 and mpg goes down quickly. Later-
  19. Hey Don, I hear you. It's Easter Sunday and snowing like crazy. Looks like another week or so before I can even get out of the 900' Driveway. Later-
  20. Hey Scott, I feel what you mean brother. Been in two bike wrecks, totalled one, the other is minor. Five car crashes, tottaled 3. The last one was head onto the cement divider wall on I-69 & I-75, car flipped end for end several times, and ended up in the ditch covered in snow, they found me 8 hours later. Yea, I'm on Barrowed Time. I truly believe that the good Lord takes us when it is our time. And if we are lucky, we don't suffer to much. I to have lost friends due to bike wrecks. Even seen a close friend get hit from a drunk cager from behind and thrown 100' to his death, holding him in my arms trying to get him alive. For a long time (14 years) I did not ride because of that. Finally, after all the kids were about grown, I realized I needed to Face that Ghost, and Live Again. I needed to do something I used to Love, and here I am on this site with all these wonderful people. Been ridding again for three years and Love Ridding. My only regret is that I gave it up for all them years. Later- P.S. You would be missing that "Pretty One".
  21. Mini, having a Tip of the Day right now for you and everyone else. May we all have an Irish Blessing today. Later-
  22. Hey Ron, congrads. We became Grandparents for the first time also this year. On Feb 3rd to wonderful baby girl. I call her my Super Bowl Baby. Later-
  23. Hey Bob, we are also going to the Grand Canyon, but in late August. Let me know how your trip turns out and what we need to plan for, if you would. I can hardly wait to get out and ride around here also. Later-
  24. Our Prayers are sent to Mark's Family, and to you Ken at this very difficult time. James & Charlene
