  6. Metric bolts are measured, Diameter x thread width (peak to peak) x length. Example : 8mm x 1.25mm x 25mm. so measure
  7. A couple other pieces of food for thought 1 you may have had a small piece of debris prevent a needle seat from closing causing a carb to flood. 2 The choke is really not a choke in the traditional sense but a sliding valve which opens when you set the choke lever. This valve allows a richer fuel mix. When you move the choke lever to the normal run position a this sliding valve can stick and stay open.
  8. I have the same sign hanging in my ooffice at home. My wife put there a few yesrs ago

  10. Congrats on getting a new dog Don and Nancy. you will have to trade your tent trailer in foor a dog trailer.
  11. Welcome back Steve. Kinda wondered what happened to you. Thought maybe you just got tired of us.
  12. Thanks to everyone who were able to make it, as always it was a pleasure to see everyone there . I apologize for not being there in time to greet everyone as they arrived, pretty much being one of the last to show up. It was my intention to get there ahead of everyone but sadly I miscalculated my timing and ability to find a parking spot. However it was great to see everyone, a great way to kick off the new year and I believe we all had a great time. To the lady's, my wife Marita who tends to be a bit shy at times really enjoyed your company. Its hard to get her to relate to many of my friends but for some unknown reason she always enjoys the company of the venture riders. go figure Well here's to a great and safe up and coming riding season :beer:and looking forward to doing it again next year.
  13. Bondic is just an adhesive and unless the surface is properly prepped it just peels off. Plastifix and plastex are solvent based and melt the materials together. You can also embed fiberglass cloth into the repair for added strength. You can form or build up missing tabs etc as well.
  14. Being a Victory Rider I guess that still allows you to be a VR member.
  15. Just 6 more hours. looking forward to seeing everyone.
  16. Sorry to hear your not going to make it Mike. I always enjoy You and Tammie's company.

  18. Let me get this straight........You have been sitting on this stuff since July:backinmyday:and your only just letting us know about it now..
  19. To the Burlington Ontario 5th Annual M&E 2016 and not too late to let me know if your coming. Its not mandatory to RSVP on the calendar but it will help to have a relatively close head count for convenience sake. Even if you RSVP a day or two before. There will however be a few extra seats for last minute decisions. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=461&day=2016-1-9&c=1
  20. Nice to hear from you Tom and Merry Christmas to you as well. Pssssst did you happen to get a Passport for Christmas so you can come up to visit us wonderful Canadians on Jan 9th. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=461&day=2016-1-9&c=1
  21. And for that reason I hope we all have a Very Merry Christmas and remember to strive for peace on earth everywhere.
  22. I am inclined to agree I have done extensive driving in both countries including several European countries and I find driving behavior is based more on population density than on nationality. It seems the higher the population of a given area the less considerate they are. This also seems to apply to areas were the life style is of a more stressful nature versus an area were the life style is more easy going.
