    Bike only on mine. Need to get to some other places. Chuckles
  2. I replied to a thread a while back about Kenda tires and how good I thought they were. While cleaning the bike this afternoon I was checking out the rear tire and realized why I have a Guardian Angel on my handlebars. I have never seen a Kenda separate before, and wsa surprized that this one had. Does anyone have a suggestion as to why this has happened. I run the rear tire at 40 psi and check it everytime I get on the bike. The DOT on the tire is 2605 and I bought it new in 2006, three years of service and no problems until I found this. Chuckles
  3. Definatly sounds like carpal tunnel syndrome to me. Had that problem all the time till surgery. Now a throttle rocker and a good pair of gloves and no problems. Chuckles
  4. Always use the clutch for take off and stopping. Most of the time don't need it to shift. I have been riding since the early 60's and have not had any problems with hurting the gears or clutch. Just seems easier to me to just shift without the clutch. Also do it without the clutch in all of the standard shift cars and trucks I have had over the years. Chuckles
  5. I have ran Kenda Kruze tires on my '86 for about 3 years now. No complaints and good wear tire. also hard to beat the price. Chuckles
  6. Dragon rider, Don't mean to hijack the thread, but just wanted to thank you for the turn signals. they came in just fine and fit. Thanks again. Chuckles
  7. Bob, let me know what the price is. I will take both of them. Chuckles
  8. Bob I am in the process of re-building a crashed '89 VR, and need both front turn signals. If you have them I will take them off your hands. Chuckles
  9. don't feel alone Don. Getting there myself Chuckles
  10. Just do what the docs say, take therapy and stay off that leg. Oh yeah, paint that cane. Chuckles
  11. On my '89 VR I want to replace the radio with an after market model. It is the Jensen model HD5112. I want to hook it up to play thru the speakers and also the headsets. Any ideas? Should I cut off the 5 pin wire from the factory radio and splice it to the aftermarket one and play it thru the amp? Will this get the sound thru the headsets? This radio has inputs for MP3, wma, USB, SD Card, ipod and sat. radio. I really want to use this radio. Any help will be appreciated. Chuckles
  12. Eddy, I also have the piggy-backer and think itis one of the best trailers I have pulled. Plenty of room and very easy to pull. Chuckles
  13. You know what they say, this thread is no good without pictures!!!!
  14. Sorry to hear about your wreck. Take your time and heal fully and quickly. Ribs are a real "pain" have had a few myself over the years. As have been stated already U-Haul is the way to go. Pick one up where your bike is and return it in your hometown. Be extra careful with the insurance company, they are a bear to work with. Chuckles
  15. Just wondering how many rode today? 19 deg. f. this morning, 38 this evening. Another great day on the bike. Chuckles:banana:
  16. I always ride on New Year's Day. Even if it's just around the block, I always ride. Supossed to be good luck. Has worked for me. Chuckles:rudolf:
  17. My vote's in. Hope they win. Merry Christmas and Happy New YEar Chuckles
  18. My brother-in-law pulled one in the late '60's all over the states and Mexico. Great conversation starter, and plenty of room for all he carried. Chuckles:12101:
  19. I have just purchased an '89 VR with some fairing and fairing mount damage. Was wondering if the fairing stays from an '83 would work? I can get all the fairing stays from an '83 if they will work. Also need to get the complete fairing. Chuckles:fingers-crossed-emo
  20. Thanks, I will bid on the '86 seat that is listed. Chuckles
  21. Bob, There is a brown one on e-bay in Maryland. Is this the one you are bidding on Item number: 250223782399? Chuckles
  22. Skidrow, thanks for the reply. If the '85 will fit I would imagine the '84 would fit also. Chuckles
  23. I have an '86 VR. will the seat of an '84 fit with no problems? Keeping my eye on a couple on e-bay, just need to make sure they will fit. Chuckles
  24. Enjoyed it as much this time as when I saw it the first time. Don't need no reason just get on and ride. Chuckles
  25. OUTSTANDING ESSAY. Being a combat veteran from Vietnam it is great that we still have young people who are still willing to go to the service academies and uphold the tradition of the U.S. military. Chuckles
