Glad you had a good time, the gospel sing here was pretty good too. Wish I could have made both. Took Emily (my teenager) bike shopping she has narrowed the choice down to either a Boulevard or Shadow. -
My neighbors husband past away recently and she asked me if I would help her price and sell her husbands tools. I have found new prices for most of the items but I do not really know how much to mark them down. Can anyone give me a general rule of thumb to use. All of he stuff is in great condition and 3 years old and up.

New guy looking at possibly getting a Venture.

I bought my 99 in June after several years of looking and trying out other bikes. My biggest issue was will it carry my wife and I comfortably (we are both large folks) after 6000 miles I would give it a resounding thumbs up. 1500 miles in a weekend is no big deal on it. It all comes down to how well you like it, try out any you might be intersted in and go from there. Here is a article I looked at when the 2nd gens came out that might interest you. http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/roadtests/touring_motorcycles_comparison/index.html -
You know it's a distinct possibility Now that you have everyone hungry what time are you serving Breakfast?

There is an art to eating good biscuits. You take and put some sorghum on the plate mix butter with it just right and sop it up it with the biscuit. You know when you have the mix just right when it tears half of a cat's head biscuit half in two when you drag it through.

You could be right I am only going by what I was told by the PO, I was thinking maybe SLIME myself. The tire had been on the bike for 6 years when I bought the bike so no telling. It was not that hard to get off just a hassle. I was trying to find out where I read it would start to break down after a couple of years but I cannot find it.

Don't reuse it it turns hard after a couple of years, the PO of my bike used it and after I had my first tire change the rim was coated with the stuff. I do not reccommend it unless you plan on changing your tires every two years not a problem if you ride as much as I do. http://i760.photobucket.com/albums/xx248/etcswjoe/Front%20Rim/IMG_0366.jpg
