I think like Condor said....years back it was an acknowledgement of another free spirit...a brother rider. Today...there are so many bikes on the road that I don't really feel special or any real comeraderee....sometimes I just don't bother! Now when I see a venture....

but...unfortunately like most people, his attitude was probably...."yeah...but its not MY asphalt!"

Looks good! Instead of all the masking, could you not just paint everything and then polish the paint off the tips of the fins with a dremel?

I think I need to bleed my clutch...again! This will be the 3rd time....in 2 months. When I bleed it...and put in fresh Dot3, it seems fine for about a month...then all at once it starts acting up and within 2 -3 days it is unrideable. The "throw" gets less and less until it won't disengage enough to sit at a stop without pulling or stalling! The clutch fluid level is not down...so I'm not leaking anywhere Even after a clutch bleed the clutch starts to engage VERY soon after the clutch lever leaves the bar. I mean like 3/4 of the lever travel is meaningless. ANY IDEAS???

They do that just so the new bikes can be as good as the 1st gens somehow! :rotf:

Well. WE were there! ...even though the Children's Miracle Netwok day in Canada it is on the 12th....I figured I needed the practice so we were at the Kingson DQ at 7:00 as originally planned...all by ouselves! I'm sure that the fact it was the wrong date, accompanied by thunder-storms with sideways rain and what seemed like gale force winds had nothing to do with it! Oh well, we got a chance to try out our new rain suits anyway !

Fooled her....maybe fooled the doctors....but probably didn't help your eye any!!! Don't mess around man! Do as you are told....don't mess around with your vision Blind men can't ride!

well that just sucks! Not sure if it's the same in the USA but with Glucoma here in Canada you can get a doctors prescription for "medicinal marajuanah". I'm not sure if it is supposed to help the problem...or just make you so mellow you just don't care! Hope things get better for ya!

Another thread on this site where someone suggested using 8 ft. florescent light tubes. (there were pics too!) For sure they will straight...and you may have some from the shop lighting anyway!!
