  1. One word...... TRIKE?
  2. I wondered where all that stuff in my trunk box came from!
  3. I read Yvette the reply's to my post....when I read yours she said....."very profound!" Then she just walked away shaking her head.
  4. why is it that electrical stuff works just fine when you bench test it....and the wires feeding the install test out good....but then when you put it together nothing works! Take it apart and bench test the light.....works check the feed wires and ground....OK put it back together....nothing works! Not a real question....just venting! Obviously SOMETHING is wrong.
  5. uhh......Don's MD was LAST weekend!! Sorry you missed it.
  6. the first helecopter...now that was some flying!
  7. I know the one I posted from ebay is pretty cheap. I use elastic bands to hold my phone in place cause there is no way I'd trust the clamps to hold it!
  8. You can always put one or two ounces of methyl hydrate in the tank. Same as gas line antifreeze.

    Venture East

    Exactly what I would love to do....but my wife won't go:crying: Keep on posting....I guess some of us have to do trips like that vicariously thru others! Glad the rain stopped for you!
  10. I was looking around the Yamaha site....I saw this and it is identical to what I have bought on ebay.....here's both links for comparison http://www.starmotorcycles.com/star/accessories/acscitemdetail/5/4/83/1429/all/1/11528/0/detail.aspx http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0&_nkw=Bike+Bicycle+Phone+Mount+Holder+For+LG+Optimus+4X+HD+P880+P500+P970+P990+P925&_sacat=0&_from=R40 Exactly the same from what I can see.
  11. You gotta know that's just not good enough! On the positive side....now you 2nd genners will know what it feels like to own an antique!
  12. I guess that just proves true that "beauty is in in eye of the beholder" me? I just ain't beholdin'
  13. Are any of the 8 models they going to release in the touring mode?
  14. Did yours have 2 bottles of booze in the truck too?
  15. Gotta wonder how many sales he makes!
  16. Start with the obvious....it couldn't be that the increased rpm and speed caused enough wind and engine noise to activate one of the mikes....thereby "cutting out" the radio etc?
  17. Lets see....this year I learned about apple pie and Wild Sex.....very useful!

    Too much

    Did you SEE Yammers tent???
  19. the guy I sold a bike to told me there was no oil in the bike so he added some. The next morning he said he had a "huge" oil puddle on the driveway. When I checked everything I found that It DID have oil in it.. It must have been over-full from the PO (I bought it ....hardly even looked at it and resold it) and the oil level window was completely black so he ASSUMED it had no oil in it and added a bunch more. When I drained it to the proper level, I DRAINED more then the regular volume when doing a full oil change!!! So it had more than twice what it should have had. No wonder he complained that he had an oil leak!!!! The oil leak was the o-ring on the timing inspection hole in the left side case....easy fix....but he decided he was too busy to own a bike anyway!
  20. I was trying to warn Ben of an impending crash ....by pushing the turn signal cancel button instead of CB Transmit button. Thankfully he didn't need me after all!
  21. Seeing as I AM a witness, I can make a suggestion! we all just have to wear a shirt and tie, and carry a literature case? But we would have to be prepared to leave the property on short notice:whistling:
  22. ALWAYS wipe windshield N/S not in circles or side to side. Any minor scratching will be less noticeable.
  23. Sorry Yammer.....the handle "Tentpeg" is already taken!
  24. Geee......if you hadn't spent so much time of "every one elses" bike you could have done some work on yours! So now I really feel guilty. But you beat me home. I had rain going to Marcarls's on Thursday and again home today....but the rest was GRRREAT!
  25. Thanks for your generosity once again Jim. The light is is repairable....plastex is wonderful stuff.
