  1. Old School? For sure____Good Looking? ------------Absolutely! How do you put a price on a work of art? That thing belongs in my driveway---------------------- Steve
  2. Thanks to those who had something positive to add. One last question, Is it possible that a 2002 had that seat and paint color? Steve
  3. How do you identify that as a '97? I've seen 97 royal star palominos for sale in the past. I think it's more about the seat color. Kinda a western theme going there. Steve
  4. I think that we have a generation gap here:rotf: the pic, I believe is a 97. I was just wondering how many different years they offered the palomino as an option. And if they offered it as a venture. Steve
  5. Does anyone know what years the palomino version was offered? Also, was it offered as a Royal Star, and or Venture? Steve
  6. So, with what I have read and what Orrin has said, it would make more sense to put the valve on the rear then, right? Steve
  7. You've got an awfully nice neighbor to be passing out venison tenderloins. I'm a nice guy, but sure as hell not that nice. So, I'm picturing a scbbord on the side of that 1st gen - pics? We live on venison in this house, and it's about time to replenish the supply Nice mounts paul, but the guitars are awsome. When I was going through WV some years back, I bought a homemade turkey call from a fellow out there. And it does the job! Steve
  8. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. It's not exatly like the 60s, when there weren't many of us riding. Steve
  9. Hey Boo, I was on the Kitty hawk, CVA-63 in 63 & 64 then to the Randolph CVS-15, from 64 to 67. Biggest waves I saw was off of cape haderus. Over the flight deck. that's a BIG WAVE. Steve
  10. You're about to find out who is the stongest, you or the habit. I smoked a pack a day for 24 years and quit 3 times, twice for 9 months and once for 2 years. I finally quit cold turkey in 87 and have'nt had a drag of a tobacco product since. It is a matter of mind over matter. It's also the hardest thing that you will ever do. I hate to have to tell you this, but the first two years are not the hardest. You will have the urge for many years, and finally it will not be something that you will want anymore, but hang in there, it is worth it. It's great not being controlled by the worst drug out there. I'll stop here, but could go on. Be strong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Steve
  11. I also have edsets in my fullface and the speakers and mic are great. I have used them all year. They get my recomendation. And Ed was great to deal with. Steve
  12. Well, I do have my own opinion on modulators and it is that it is one of hondas stupid ideas. I'm not saying that it is a popular opinon, but it is mine. I can see how it could be construde as a turn indicator. Steve
  13. Jeff, You and all of your family and friends, and especially your dad is in my thoughts. I am so sad about you loosing your mom! The girl that caused the accident is also in my thoughts. She will live with this forever. Steve
  14. Just got home and read this, I'm very sad to hear of this tradgety. I have never met Gary, but he is in my thoughts at his loss of his wife. I can only hope that all goes well with him. I have to say that an accident like this also affects the girl who hit them. She is also in my thoughts. She will be living with this for the rest of her life. And, as we all know, is also a victim. Steve
  15. I think that the fact that the ventures have a tall center of gravity is a problem, and add to that a passenger makes it all the more complex. Ever since I was a kid, I always liked a very low center of gravity. Starting with my mini bike. My 86 VR has a high center of gravity, which is the main reason I went to a 05 RSTD. It's lower, but now low enough. Maybe I'll even lower the RSTD. When I have had a passenger on the back of my VR, I always had it ready to go before the passenger got on. (and I'm always glad when they got off) Good luck, Steve
  16. I'm with Thom. Preach to someone who wants to hear it. I'll do what ever I want, and sure as hell don't need a preacher telling me what to do.. Steve
  17. Orrin, This just hit me like a bolt out of the blue--------- I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner. You need to buy my 1st generation, it has linked brakes. :rotf::rotf::rotf::rotf: But seriously, you need to grab a handful of front brake. Steve
  18. I'd be interested in reading the letter. Steve
  19. Glad to hear that your OK after going down like that. I've used the devcon and cloth also and it works great. Living in Wisconsin, I really don't understand the ski thing though. Steve
  20. Sometime prior to 1975, a guy that I worked with used to ride his automatic honda to work. Seems to me that it was around a 500cc, but don't remember for sure. Steve
  21. Rick, In Wisconsin, on a camper or utility trailer the weight limit is set at 3000 lbs. If the trailer is under that, you don't need plates or registration. I'm an hour away from Janesville if you need anything. Let me know. Steve
  22. Hey Orrin, Glad your'e home recovering. Hope those neighbors don't spoil you. (well, maybe a little ) I'll be out after work. Hope the fish are biting. Steve
  23. Cowboys, that's funny-Everytime I think of the cowboys, I think of the sign on their locker room door--No guns allowed:rotf: they're all a bunch of thugs Steve
  24. I just got a call from Orrin, and he is in the hospital. Fri. night out riding his 05 RSTD with a friend and had to do a fast stop, and it all went bad. He said that his helmet has a big gouge and he's sure that it saved him. He's got a broken collar bone and 3 broken ribs, along with some road rash. He hasn't seen the bike yet. He should be home in a day or two. Steve
  25. Sorry to hear that it happened, but glad you came out of it as good as you did. Steve
