  1. I looked at the link and they have one for a motorcycle, (PH400) which they say runs not quite as hot. I also read the installation instructions and you have to drill a 3/8" hole on each side of the handlebars near the the triple tree/forks, (as I read it) for the wires to come through. I'm not sure that I want to do that to my bars. As far as the end weights, it says to push the warmer an inch into the bars, so i would guess that the end weights would still work out ok.
  2. I looked them up and it seems as if they are heated grips. Can you tell me the difference? I always have cold hands.
  3. Dusty, Just a heads up, the last post was from 5 years ago.
  4. Did you try clicking on the link that you posted in this thread? I just did it again and it worked fine. I don't know much about computer stuff, but people talk about clearing your cache. just sayin
  5. yup, I see the entire thread also
  6. Good move to walk away from that one. You'll find one. Like you said there are plenty of them out there. you just pick a year and price.
  7. There is absolutely no question about that. How about your next ride, you concentrate on old homesteads. Hey, were waiting Here's to ya
  8. Of course you realize that we are all very jealous up north here, but I love your ride pictures. Someday-----------soon?
  9. Yeah, well, it's a good thing she's watching out after you. You realize that she will be watching you like a hawk for a while. It's better to know what is going on than not. So I hope your tests next week go well. If your out snow blowing and that happens you could always call Eileen and ask her what the number for 911 is.
  10. Your friend should check out Michigan Motorcycle Salvage. They have a website. I think it's just their name. I've gotten stuff from them before.
  11. A store that sells new husbands has opened in London, where women may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building. So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have Jobs. She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads: Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and love Kids. 'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more. So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking. 'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads: Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework 'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!' Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads: Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. PLEASE NOTE: To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street. The first floor has wives that love sex. The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.
  12. I had an 86 just like that. In fact it is the bike that I was on riding on the salt flats. Great Bike, but it was too tall for me. you'll love it.
  13. You have to read back a bit. He's got it home. Covered in ICE (new name for the bike) Right? Good name
  14. [TABLE=class: MsoNormalTable, width: 621] [TR] [TD=width: 100%] HOW THE FIGHT STARTED One year, I decided to buy my mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift The next year, I didn't buy her a gift. When she asked me why, I replied, "Well, you still haven't used the gift I bought you last year!" And that's how the fight started..... ________________________________ My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in bed. I turned to her and said, 'Do you want to have sex?' 'No,' she answered. I then said,'Is that your final answer?' She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying, 'Yes..' So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend." And that's when the fight started... ________________________________ I took my wife to a restaurant. The waiter, for some reason, took my order first. "I'll have the rump steak, rare, please." He said, "Aren't you worried about the mad cow?" "Nah, she can order for herself." And that's when the fight started..... _______________________________ My wife at her high school reunion, and she kept staring at a drunk swigging his drink as he sat alone at a nearby table. I asked her, "Do you know him?" "Yes", she sighed, he's my old boyfriend. He began drinking right after we split up years ago, and hasn't been sober since." "My God!" I said, "Who would think a person could go on celebrating that long?" And then the fight started... ________________________________ When our lawn mower broke my wife kept nagging me to get it fixed. But, I always had something else to take care of. Finally she thought of a clever way to make her point. I found her seated in the tall, unmowed grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of scissors. I watched silently for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute, and when I came out again I handed her a toothbrush. I said, "When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway." The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp. ______________________________ My wife sat down next to me as I was flipping channels. She asked, "What's on TV?" I said, "Lots of dust." And then the fight started... ________________________________ My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary. She said, "I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 165 in about 2 seconds." I bought her a bathroom scale. And then the fight started...... ______________________________ After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for benefits. The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's License to verify my age. I looked in my pockets and realized I had left it at home. I told the woman I would have to go home and come back later. The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'. So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver chest hair. She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me' and she processed my Social Security application. When I got home, I told my wife about my experience at the Social Security office. She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten disability too.' And then the fight started... ________________________________ My wife was standing naked, looking in the bedroom mirror. She was not happy with what she saw and said to me, "I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a compliment.' I replied, "Your eyesight's damn near perfect." That's when the fight began . . . [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
  15. just shakin my head
  16. Of course you realize that we want to see pics of the ICE BIKE. Reminds me of a pic of my 1975 XS650 Yamaha that sat out in a ice storm many years ago. I still have a photograph of that somewhere.
  17. Wow Eck, those are great photo's. I'd love to ride those roads some day, but for now, just looking at the snow covered ground.
  18. OK, here is a really good one to post on this thread: 1975, INDY MILE Indiana State fair in Indianapolis Me and some friends used to ride down to watch the indy mile/flat track every year. This year Kenny Roberts rode the Yamaha TZ-750 and won it. It was truly an amazing race. When he flew past everyone to the finish line, everyone was standing and there were goose bumps on your arms. Wow, what a race.
  19. November 22, 1963 I had just graduated from the US Navy boot camp and was at the San Diego airport waiting for a flight home when I heard the announcement that President Kennedy was shot and killed. But first they said that that the governor of Texas was shot. Initially there was a lot of confusion as to what happened as I remember it. On that flight I remember circling Ohare field a number of times due to a winter storm, and from there a flight back to Madison, Wi. on a tail dragger that made a stopover in Janesville. Not a fun flight!
  20. Did you get to see that special tool?
  21. Sounds like paradise to me. I'm glad that you are enjoying your new place. I had forgotten about you getting that place. I'm sorry to hear of your sisters passing. As far as us having those amenities, I doubt it. I do have a crackling fire in the wood stove going all the time and really do enjoy that and it heats my house.
  22. No truer (is that really a word?) words were ever spoken.
  23. Be sure and post pics when you get it home. I love that year! And that one is loaded!
  24. I think that an opinion like yours is what he is looking for. You know what you like and went and bought what you like. The best bike is the bike you like!!!
