    Glove Suggestions

    in Watering Hole

    Posted

    I'd like a glove that provides more protection than my Tour Master Lattitude. My left wrist/hand too a beating on my accident last year. A friend of mind wears Rev'It SLR for highway riding commuting to work over 100 miles round trip. The Rev'It looks kind of big for tourning.

     

    What do you wear and what do you like about your glove and how protective is it.

    Wow! I'm curious.

    What does this switch do?

     

    To Spear: Here are a couple of pictures of members install.

     

    I used one button for Walmart 55 watt (Small Lights) near my mirrors to get the attention of on comming cars passing in my lane. Push On; Let go OFF

     

    2nd one for Rear Attention Amber or Red light. To get the attention of maybe someone approaching to my rear to fast or to close with out tapping my brakes.

     

    Some members want to incorporate their garage door opener.

     

    Lots of other ideas.

     

    The main focus is to keep your left hand on the handle grip to activate a switch.

    What ever resolution you decide on, you might want to take a look at this Speedo Coupling Greaser tool for maintenance.

     

    If you are interested, I could loan you mine. If you like it, you can keep it, for the regular advertised purchase price, for I can probably get another one down the rode from my friend who makes them. Otherwise just use it and send it back.

     

    The squeaking normally comes from the tiny bearing in the neck of the speedo coupling.

    Left Thumb Switch Mount - Group Purchase

    I learned that postage from USA to Canada recently went up about $4.50 for a small item like this. So I've added the $4.50 to all the Canadian prices.

     

    USA price will not change unless the US Post Office announces an up charge before I ship, but I don't think that will happen.

     

    So for Canada

     

    If all 16 purchases: Canada $32.00; (includes shipping)

    If only 12 to 15 purchases: Canada $23.50; (includes shipping)

    If 11 or less purchases: Canada $35.00; (includes shipping)

     

    If you did not show interest but want one.

    Please indicate with a "Yes with a (quantity) on this thread.

     

    When everyone has responds, only time will tell what the actual cost will be.

    Ok, I was able to negotiate a slightly better price than the last order which was

    (USA-$31.50; Canada-$32.50) including shipping.

     

    He gave an incentive depending on the quantity of order and better than last prices.

     

    If all 16 purchases: USA $26.50; Canada $27.50; (both includes shipping)

    If only 12 to 15 purchases: USA $28.00; Canada $29.00; (both includes shipping)

    If 11 or less purchases: USA $29.50; Canada $30.50; (both includes shipping)

     

    So for all those who showed interest I have sent each a PM.

     

    If you did not show interest but want one.

    Please with a "Yes with a (quantity) on this thread.

    Wow What A Ride...Not M/C

    in Watering Hole

    Posted

    Wed. Plan surgery to remove 3 remaining pins in my left wrist. Plus removed some scar tissue from Surgery from June 2012. Blood pressure about 130 over something normal.

    Back home about 8:00 pm stayed up till 1:00 watching J Leno and took a pain pill. Went to bed

    Woke up 7:00 am. Walked with wife about 180 feet round trip to the detached garage to get the blood pressure unit. Put new batteries in.

     

    Came in the house and sat down and 1st blood pressure read was 77 over 50.

    Hmmm. Must be a malfunction. 2nd read was 75 over 50. hmmm whats wrong with this thing.

    Put on wife and it read 130 over 85. hmmm seems to work.

    So put it on me and this time the unit gave some error message.

     

    Then it started. Light headed, weak, Wife is rubbing my chest, head, yelling at me to wake up. She called 911. I was golng in and out faintly. Head her try to give direction.

    I said over 1st speed bump, immediate right then left 2nd gate. I also said bring the barf bucket incase I throw up.

     

    911 came in a couple of minutes. About 1 miles up the road. Took my pressure Still low 80 over something. They gave me 4 chewable aspirins. Felt little better. Got me on a stretcher. Blood pressure going up some.

     

    To the hospital. Full 10 yards of test. All the simple and small stuff then Ct scan on the brain showed possibly something…MRI showed nothing. Heart scan showed nothing. Back home Sat noonish. All during the hospital stay just a tiny bit of lightness in the head. Blood pressure between 102 to 160 over some other number. Part of the high blood pressure is due to hand surgery. Felt great today.

     

    Going to take it easy for a while. Like I said what a ride.

    Been Working on a 1st Gen Patch...

    in Venture and Venture Royale Tech Talk ('83 - '93)

    Posted · Edited by Golf&Venture

    I've been working on a 1st Gen Patch. I've had some comments that it would be nice to have a patch specfically for a 1st Gen. I've modified the previous Venture patch to be more 1st Gen specific.

     

    I'd like to open it up for suggestions.

     

    One goal was to have major colors to represent the various colors as close as I can.

    (Black/White/Blue/Maroon/Blonde/

     

    I'm trying to get a darker and bright blue and a darker and brighter maroon.

     

    I'm going to change the big V from maroon to tan for there seems to be this thing about Blondes.

     

    I'm hoping to have the Number "1" available in the major colors except White.

     

    I will experiment the various objects to different colors for eye appeal.

    The Blue and Maroon object might get switched.

    The Balls on crowns might get colors to match the various colors.

    1300 will also be available

     

    Open to your suggestions but can't make any promises.
