try soaking it in warm water and baking soda. now your going to laugh at me but after working as a carpet cleaner and janitor for many years. here is a tip shaving cream. yes shaving cream buy a few cheap cans and rub it in . this will act like a cheap dry cleaning agent let it set in and dry in the sun. then a gentle wipe down with plain warm water let it dry again yes it will smell like you shaved for a day or so but it is way better then lighter fluid smell

I think I have a deal in the works? local man here in my town said he can make me a memory foam seat cushion. that will go on top of the stock seat with about and inch of padding ? not sure what he is trying to do? the saddleman seat sounds nice? not sure if it is for a Honda shadow? but I would be interested

well I have a nice solo seat on the bike. nice and comfy . with a back rest. well now since my brother in-law had the stroke. and is in a home for now. my niece has been after me to give her rides. so I changed out the solo seat put the stock ones back on. so she can ride with. her and I use to do a lot of things together. she never had a father or much of a mother in her life. grandma and grandpa have raised her, along with me. as her grandpa asked me to be in her life so she would have a male role model in her life. not sure if that was a good choice? LOL well I am having a problem with this stock seat. my arse hurts along with my back after about 60 miles of travel with her on the back. my left leg the one I had a total knee replacement on some times gets a tingle feeling? so I guess what I am asking is there a seat pad out there that will give my huge butt some padding? and some kind of back rest that will fit the stock seat? I can not afford the one piece mustang or cobra seat with back rest and passenger seat all in one. boy I sure do miss the mustang solo seat. I still have it but you can not install the passenger stock seat to it. and this stock seat feels like I am sitting on a rock. also if I can just get her to hang on to something besides the seat strap. when I take off she yanks that strap. I don't lose control but it sure makes me think. I might. she has rode horses since she was 5 I think she is saying whoa stella LOL. I love my niece to death she will graduate in 2015 and then she is off to another state for higher education. I hope she will come and see her uncle oldgoat when summer comes.

mike what time will it start? thanks oldgoat

get well rick. my prayers go out to you and yours.

took off the helmet. niece pulled up. and said uncle put the face shield down next time. and you need a beard trim? gee really do I?

I shall be there

I might jump in on this meet. depends on how things are going with my brother in-law. but I think a few rootbeers and meet . just might be what I need. gives me a good excuse to just get away for a while. and ease my mind. been like 2 weeks or more since I been out for a ride. I am sure my sister and niece will understand.

got er done. it was not as bad as I thought. cleaned the filter like the kit said too do. rinsed it from the inside out. let it dry over night as I was in no hurry to get back to the bike. oiled it like the kit said to do. changed the oil with 10w 40 Castrol for motorcycle usage? total time to do this not counting the overnight drying was around an hours time. total cost to me because I di it myself $12.00 for the charge kit and around $45 for oil and new filter could not find that pre filter for the K&N. but put one on order I will install that next oil change or as soon as I get great advice on that many thanks

ok when I bought stella from leadwolf56 or should I say tinkerbell his wife? it has a K&N air filter on it.with some of the back roads stella and I have been on and the cement dust in this town I live in. I have now reached the time for an oil change and some basic maintenance. but I was told I have to get a recharge kit to clean a K&N air filter is this true? also what is the best oil for this Honda shadow ace 750? I can do this myself as I am not going to pay $125 for an oil change and air filter clean that sounds high to me maybe not? I have an owners manual as well as a full repair manual. and I know I can do this.

the root beer stand is a nice place. 3 miles from me. I stop there about every other Friday. have not run across EUSA1 there for a while? but I do know he sneaks in there every so often?

they can not operate on him. he can now talk? but it is hard to understand him. he gets confused a lot. so with a heavy heart my sister will bring him home for what will most likely be his final days a nurse will come in and help my sister. he wants to die at home? doctors said with the brain bleeding. at best we will have him for maybe 2 months. he will go into a coma like state. and breathing will stop. and sad to say that will be the end. this will be our 8th family member to die in 3 years in the last 20 years I have lost 8 family members and 10 friends. this will be hard on my sister. and her grand daughter who they raised. I am so thank full for this wonder full site and outstanding people some I never even met in person. who have gave me so much here I just want to say thank you all so much sincerely james AKA oldgoat.

with all that stuff on the back. will that make a lot of drag? and like Harley your clutch will not be covered

he has been sent in for A MRI still cant speak or move his left side. knows who we are but cant do nothing but blink to simple yes and no questions.. his face is swollen and docs say he might be bleeding in his brain.. after the MRI they will make the choice to attempt the risky operation or not? thanks every one james AKA old goat

hello every one I could sure use some prayers. it is for my sister and her husband my brother in-law had a stroke about 3 years ago did ok and came out of it with complications. like motor skills and being weak. he has some kind of problem in his brain that can not be operated on? he quit drinking and smoking and followed doctors instructions to the letter. well at 6:00 am I get a call from my grate nice his granddaughter and my sister saying Dan my brother in-law had a bad stroke. and hit the floor. he is on his way to Peoria hospital in IL doctors here said it is not good. his brain is bleeding where the main problem was before. he can not walk or talk. can only blink yes and no to questions. I am praying they can some how fix him but it is not looking good. he is only 65 years old a Vietnam veteran. and an over all good person. I have to say maybe Vietnam took his toll on him with that agent orange crap? so if you can please offer up a prayer to the big man upstairs many thanks to you all sincerely james AKA oldgoat

nice trip you 2 are doing. but what is up with you on a Yamaha venture and wearing a Harley hat? it is ok I ride a Honda shadow. and I have a venture guarding bell. but I do wear Honda shadow t shirts and a American flag hat guess that could be a problem? a jap bike and a American flag hat? I do wear red white and blue socks sometimes too.

sorry for your loss. my prayers are with you.

have a happy birth day Mini
