Look up Clearview Shields. http://www.clearviewshields.com/shop/index.php They also have one in the scratch and dent section for a $72.00 savings and it is even tinted. Only read the scaratch discription

Miles..Not a dull moment when I'm around..

Well what about WD10/40?

I read that you are supposed to use K&N Air Filter Spray before using them. Anyone use some other spray from a local auto parts store?

Ya, I had the same problem, so for the time being I got a smaller cooler so that my stop lights could be seen from behind. It must have passed for I never got stop on a 1400 mile trip. But I do like your idea and will fabricate something like yours. Great another to do project...

I installed a Revco small one. The price went up from last year. http://www.rivcoproducts.com/products/search.php?mode=search&page=1 Then if you are a golfer. Search for golf rack, and that can mount to the rack. I can't wait to try my golf rack..

I'd be interested. It be educational, and fun to hear about creative ideas others have implemented and are thinking about.

Miles, you are a survivalist at heart... This has turn out to be a decient thread with some good information. At first I though...oh great look what I started now...

Thats a lot of stuff. I'm going to start. I may occasionally PM you and ask you why for a specific item.

I sure do like what Butler did to my Royale seat. I can ride all day without squirming. If only now he has a solution for stiff joints for riding too long.

I'll have to admit that, I'm not very well prepared if the Pacific Northwest got hit with a huge earthquake that took out roads, bridges and railroads.

Guess, I must live a sheltered life. Your response was enjoyable to read...

Neighbor of mine is really into preparing for various disaster, and how one can be prepared. He shared about survival food that has a shelf life of up to 25 years. Was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or experience on this.

I have the lower piece. And from your description you need the upper piece.

I have a broken antenna only I do not recall what piece I have. I'll send a picture by tomorrow morning.

My 89 VR needs a new air filter. I thought K&N were the way to go. A few has said that K&N air filters requires rejetting. Whats your experience. Rejetting? Performance? Gas Mileage? $60 for K&N...Whats a fair price for an OEM? An OEM you throw away every how many miles?

I didn't know that about the 1 way valve. Thanks for the correct explaination Gary.

Yes, I realize that. I just like input into my idea if it would work or not work and why.

Maybe you could make my neck of the woods one of your destinations, only go the long way around.

I really like the idea of some 2nd Gen owners punching holes near the neck of their tank to get more gas by getting rid of the trapped air. While in the process of cleaning my fuel system on my 89 MKII, the punching hole technique just won't work for the MKII. I kept saying to myself, got to "think out of the box". I kept staring at the neck of the tank, then a thought came to me. The tank already has a built in venting system at the very top of the tank. But it is connected to the overflow hose that ends near the bottom of the frame. So as one puts more gas in the neck of the tank, the extra gas has to push the air out the overflow to the bottom of the frame. This is a very slow process The ? is, would the extra gas in the neck push the air out faster, if the there was an air outlet above the neck of the gas tank. This I do not know. If the answer is Yes then 2 possible solutions: 1) In the picture you can see the vent hose. Maybe one could T off from the hose and then bring the new hose section thru a hole in the square rubber unit around the gas tank neck. Then on it a valve,so that when you gas up you open the valve then close it. 2) No valve and if the gas pressure build up and over flows most of it will go down the main over flow hose and if any gets thru the T section into the square rubber unit, the square rubber unit has its overflow hose. Any thought? Or are the 2 levels of gas the issue? The air pressure of the gas in the neck vs the air pressure of the gas in the main tankl?

I do have a set available on my wrecked 91 VR. There is some slight cosmetic damage near the very bottom, but if you turn the damage towards the radiator the boots will look like in perfect condition. They are so new condition that I would like to swap them out with my 89 VR, but thats too much work. I'll post them on the classified as soon as I get some pictures.

I want to remove my forks. It looks easy enough but the item in the picture looks like a challenge. Obviously I can unhook the air lines, but then what? No screw or bolts to undo.

I'm thinking of getting these. Not much time left. Are they the correct ones and is it a fair price for my 89 MKII.

Wow... I had a lighting strike last July very close to my house. The lighting swirled around the tree blowing bark off in a swirl. Found tree remains 50 ft away. Had to take tree down and the one tree in front of the falling direction. Caused damaged to my hot tub, garage door opener, battery maintenance charger, Wireless phone unit, Freezer, Home insurance was $1000.00 deductible.

Ok, I think the power steering pump on my aging 94 Saturn SC2 is going out. It just turned over 190K. About 3 weeks ago it was wining and so I checked the fluid level and noticed it was below the min mark, so I filled it up. Well yesterday I filled it up again. Could it be something else besided the PS pump? Are there anything tricky about replacing a PS pump?
