I gotta work.

That is a sweet looking machine. Oh and it is both the fastest year and color.....No I am not biased.....OK maybe just a little. In any case count on many enjoyable and comfortable miles on it. PS tell your wife its not old its vintage and will continue to get better with time. One major problem with these bikes however is they do not like to sit parked for too long, little things tend to go wrong but ride it every day and she will hum for you. Think of it as a good horse that needs regular exercise.

Bernie It was a pleasure meeting you and if my plan to ride west next summer materializes You will be on my address list. In the meantime my cell number is in my profile should you happen to be in the area.

Happy Birthday Bob Best wishes from both Marita and myself.

What a novel Idea ....Or is it http://www.pinterest.com/pin/202591683210755318/ http://auto.howstuffworks.com/three-wheel-car.htm

Hey Puc I hope you can say it better than you can spell it ...EH! Don't know were you got your spelling from.... EH but it sure is not "eay". Its almost like your trying to say EH with a mouth full of Hay Hence "eay" Your mother bless her heart never teach you not to speak with your mouth full.... EH! By the way think you'll make it to WNY mini Rally.

Gee Puc i guess it never dawned on you to unload all that cargo to see how fast you could really go, or were you just trying not to make the Harleys in the area not feel too rally bad?

Hey Monty it would be great to see you and Angel there. And remember the camping is free. Oh and we could have a Black death versus Apple pie square off.

Computer stores often carry an anti-glare plastic laminate that you can apply similar to what you can put on your GPS or cell-phones.

Ohhhhh you are in BIG trouble now. You have been bit and there is no cure. As a matter of fact this is a disease for which there is not only no cure but it tends to progress. Sometimes rapidly and sometimes in a more subtle manner. Some of the symptoms are a wanderlust look in the eyes:starz: detected by almost everyone around you except yourself and a slow weight gain:fatsmiley: as you begin to attend more and more meet and greats. Next you begin to form friendships with some of the strangest but nicest people around. Which of course contributes to a more rapid progression of the 1st two symptoms. Let me be the first to say I feel sorry for you and since misery always loves company hope to see you at one of our events some day.

So I bit the bullet and tried 4 new plugs (marcarls idea) even though the one's in it where new and same plugs. So far its been running good and i am almost at the rally.

It ispossible you could have bad or dirty float or needle and seat. Do you notice gas dripping on the ground when idling, or enrichment valve sticking open. Also you can try Four new plugs. See my most recent post about an issue I had. The plugs in it were new but it took four more new plugs (same make and type) to cure issue. Last if your valve clearance is too tight, the valves may not fully seat when the engine is real hot.

I know what Carl is thinking in the 1st Picture "What no ride "

Would love to be there buddy. But, I am leaving Fri AM for the international. Or did you know that already:think:

Happy Birthday Tom. Tried to find you a Birthday cake with Ice cream cones instead of candles, Figuring you would rather lick off cones than blow candles. But I had no idea of how big of cake I would need to hold the correct amount of cones.

So the bike runs great for the first 1/2 hour. Then after that it starts to run rough and loose power like a partial engine miss But not as bad as if you were to pull a plug wire, leave it off and run it (Don't Ask). I used an adjustable spark tester and spark is good and strong. Carbs were just all rebuilt about a month ago and synced, which has been rechecked twice. Up until now the bike ran great with excellent fuel millage. Then all of a sudden it starts this. Shut the bike off and let it sit for a bit and once again it runs great for the 1st 1/2 hour and then back to missing or whatever it is.

No problem Carl...Besides its not often you get to go to a museum for free and see a real live prehistoric creature to boot. Once Again Happy Birthday Old Timer.

I have a hard copy manual for my 89 I ordered right through the dealer. Only thing I find is the drawings are good but the pictures are horrible. I wonder if these are any better.

Prayers sent old goat and I hope things improve for him.

I do believe Carl, you are demonstrating to us the wheels of life. You started on 4 wheels. Grew up to 3 wheels. Then progressed to 2 wheels. Now you have gone back to 3 wheels. Lets hope your return to 4 wheels is still a long way away. :backinmyday: P.S Marita also wishes you a Happy Birthday and sends you this. :bighug: Don't really know why 2 hugs though She usually only does that for special people

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARCARL
