    Take a Seat

    When I was first in the military (I looked the part back then) I was driving home in my pickup on a long empty stretch of Interstate when I saw a biker on the side of the road tinkering with his bike so I stopped and gave him a ride the 20 miles to the nearest gas station. This dude was big and coverd head to toe in tatoos. He said he had been there about an hour and I was the only one to even slow down, he asked why I picked him up and I told him hey your a biker so you can't be half bad. He used the pay phone at the gas station (no cell phones then) and said bye and thanks when his friend picked him up, I went to pay for gas and turns out he had payed for my gas and bought me breakfast too.
  3. I would be in for one or two depending on price.
  4. Can you post some pics?
  5. I grew up in a civil war era house and when we removed one chimney it was fine when we removed the big one it caused the second story floor to warp. Remove the flooring check it out, with a house this old you really never know till you jump in.
  6. I may be grasping at straws, however is there a possibility that the seal in your swingarm is bad and it's finial drive oil coming up through the tube?
  7. Are you sure it is oil? I thought I had an oil leak but it was coolant form the freeze plug under the fake fins. It just looked like oil going through all the gunk on the bike when it hit the ground. I don't remember your earlier post on this so please refresh my memory (sucks getting old).
  8. We use to have a stove you could burn wood or coal in that was used to heat the wash water. It was a warm morning laundry stove had a coil on the inside with pipe fittings at the top and bottom. http://image66.webshots.com/566/1/89/47/2122189470104673048egKSXD_ph.jpghttp://infoark.org/InfoArk/Sustainability/Mother%20Earth%20News/70/MEN_CD/mendemo/menarch/archive/issues/025/025_images/025-072-01dwg1.gif
  9. Just a thought If all your bars disapperar I would think it would be the guage not the sending unit.
  10. Is it true you do not need to know code anymore?
  11. I head an ad on the radio for a store called coals, maybe that's where you get it from?\ Seems like firepalce dealers here in Charleston sale coal.
  12. It's a yearly payment, it helps Don cover the cost of running the site and other admin items. I belong to a couple of actuall "clubs" that I pay more than 12 dollars a year for that I have not got near as much benifit from as this one. Other than being the most sarcastic group I have every belonged to (I am in good company) these are some of the best folks you will ever meet. If I needed help or had a question 24/7 I can get an answer. I usally ask before I do something new because someone on here has done it and most of the time have a tip to make it alot eaiser. I would say there area great number of folks that are just like you, they joined and their first post was an issue and just like your case folks answered up with suggestions. I hope you decided to stay and get to know these folks I promise you it will be the best 12 dollars a year you ever spent.
  13. We burned coal in our garage when I was growing up, however it seems like coal heat has come along way in the last 40 years.
  14. later ??? I guess I have just gotten old:backinmyday: by 9:30 I have been in bed :draming:for at least an hour.
  15. Seems like everytime I checked in I had just missed someone.
  16. To be honest I really cannot think of anything to do that I have not already done. If I had to say one thing would be to ride through every state.
  17. I cannot add anything about tires that has not already been said so I will just say welcome. Visit often and you will soon see what a great bunch of folks are on her, they have helped me out in advice, friendship and lot's of laughs.
  18. Welcome, Lot's of great folks and good information. Check in often and watch out for those Navy guys in Texas.
  19. Will keep you in our prayers.
  20. Unless you are outside in the wind you should not need a Soldering Gun just make sure you have the proper tip, use flux and tin your wires, you will need to watch for wicking also. This is what they use here in our lab. http://www.cooperhandtools.com/brands/cf_files/model_detail.cfm?upc=037103191328 Now if you really want to do it right http://www.americanbeautytools.com/site/models/rs/104
  21. I bought one similiar from Harbor Frieght awhile back and I have been surprised how much I use it.
  22. 40 on my ride in this morning, just leather jacket, pants,chaps and gloves. Did not really feel cold till I got off the bike.
  23. Very Cool...
  24. On of the guys at work uses this http://www.raceoptics.com/evohd5.php hunting, anyone have any experience with it? If I had the money ... http://www.consumersupermall.com/xmdvr-pro-plus-motorsports-digital-video-system-p-11143.html?zenid=c52d80128b64b8cec3d849d37ee34e91
  25. I thought this would be an impossible task till I looked it up, I found that there are 63 Town Clocks in a 100 mile radius of Charleston. Some are pretty neat looking, will see if I can get to them before anyone else now.
