Sorry to hear of the health issues of your wife and mom. If you are looking to sell those mic mutes shoot me a pm with your needs. Nice choice of cars by the way [emoji106] Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

I have plugged many rear tires from the inside out, never had on fail. I'd never plug a front tire. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

We will be at the cruise a little later. Turnpike is the plan, not much of a scenic ride along most of the Erie shoreline. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

I know that Bob, but the last few times i was held at the border they took us in for Q&A then i had to put everything back in the bike and trailer! I figure time wise it's a wash. Canada must not want me spending money over there. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

We are headed to WNY on Wednesday morning. I am going the southern route around lake Erie, ive had it with Canadian customs harassing me every time I cross the border. Anyone wishing to join us for the ride is welcome. Just let me know. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Be careful using the mr. gasket pump! They have been known to over pressure the needle and seat and flood the cylinders and dump fuel on the floor. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

@Freebird sorry boss didn't mean to cause any more work for you. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

@Freebird One thing I've noticed since the changes is that when I click the notifications tab such as "mentions" the list does not have clickable links anymore. Is it just me?

Sounds good to me! The only thing missing is for desert.

Firearms are a great investment if you buy the right ones. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

We be there! 🎷🎸🎺🎶 Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Drreb, there is no right answer,, you have several choices it's all in what you are trying to get as far as handling and ride quality. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

They do hit the chrome cover. Over the course of many years the cover on my bike has developed a slight stress crack where the risers hits the cover. No big deal though. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Probably Sonic Springs, I put the sonic 1.2 in my 01 RSV with 15 weight oil. Handles great now. When you do yours, pay attention to preload and sag while setting it up. The sonic Springs are a single rate spring unlike the Progressive spring which is a progressive rate spring. If you are having handling problems also do the neck and swing arm bearings while the bike is down. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

The J22 jacket has stiff zippers, gotta find how to clean them up without damage to the leather or liner before lubing them up. The goggles I got with this stuff Has the Brand "Rocket" stamped in them, I have to wonder if it's the same Rocket company that's in business today? Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Thanks for that link but, NOT FOR SALE ! I will have the little bit of loose stitching repaired and this gear will be worn occasionally during special bike events. Almost makes me want to go out and find a period correct bike on which to wear this stuff. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Here is a link to the story of Buco Leather. http://vintageleatherjackets.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-origins-of-buco.html

Beard not me..., don't want to copy the Pucster ! While talking to some friends we got onto the subject of motorcycles (go figure) and she started talking about her grandfather, (she is in her 70's) riding motorcycles back when he served during WWI and WWII , she continued to tell me how he rode year around until a few years before he died in the early 60's. She has had these items ever since then, stored away and only taken out to show, clean and feed the leather! I gotta tell ya, it's all in excellent condition except for a few places where the thread has come loose. She then asked if I'd like to see them,,,, HELL yes I would! Today she brought them to my work to let me have a look, as she pulled out one item after another , me putting them on just as quickly, with a childish grin on my face , them looking and laughing, she said, if you want this stuff you can have it! Saying they were tired of moving it around. After about 10 hugs and twice as many THANK YOU'S I said to them I have something I'd like to give you in return. About 20 years ago I acquired some tools that I think Mike (Her Husband) would love to have. I had a complete set of Coopers tools from the late 1800's , everything needed to make Oak whisky barrels. Mike being a carpenter and already having a pretty nice collection of antique planes, I figured these would compliment his collection. We all walked away happy To top all this off they are going to bring me photos of grandpa wearing all this gear sitting on his Indian motorcycle. Can't wait to see those! :moon::moon::moon::moon:
