Ditto and to add to that the helper or Apprentice is usually required to complete the task in the same time frame as a Master tech even though he is paid half as much. The shift I run has 2 Master Techs and 6 Apprentices. Believe me I earn my keep without even picking up a wrench.

Not sure which way your coming up but if you get to were I-79 pretty much ends at HWY 5 were it more or less follows the Lake Erie shore line and follow the shoreline route right to were hwy 5 joins the I- 90. You will add about an hour and half to your ride but it goes through some nice shoreline scenery and wine country. In the meantime ride safe and see you soon.

Sorry not sure what you mean by PMS, only know two translations for it 1) Parked Motorcycle Syndrome or 2) Permissable Man Slaughter Stay away from Robin or Mini-Muffin they tend to use the later with extreme prejudice

Years ago I had my 250 Can-Am at a dealership for some work. Because I could not ride due to a neck injury (Went over the handlebars of a bicycle when I hit a chain in the dark that was stretched across a pathway) a friend of mine picked it up for me. A week later when I could once again move my neck I decided to try it out. I rode about 40 feet when the front wheel locked up and I went over the handlebars, Great. I could not see anything wrong with it so I pulled the front wheel off and found a bolt floating around in the brake drum that did not even belong to the bike. Needless to say I was 1st thankful it did not lock up when my friend rode it home and 2nd I was at the dealer ship madder than a wet hen.

Gee Puc you never seize to amaze me. The guy steals your tricycle and yet here you would still be willing to share your dinner with him. Oh by the way its OK to stop giving him mouth to mouth once he starts breathing on his own

A spyder is an EKIRT You would be going when they are coming and coming when they are going:rotfl:

Upon leaving Ashville head north until you see the Dairy Queen. Upon leaving the DQ head north until you see the DQ. upon leaving the DQ head north until tyou see the DQ. Upon leaving the DQ head north until you see the DQ. Upon leaving the DQ head north until you see the Icecream truck in the lot opposite Pioneer motorsports in Chaffee NY (well thats the way Tom gives directions

My plan is to go down Thursday morning. Anyone wanting to ride together we could meet at the Gateway Niagra service centre in Grimsby just off the Casablanca Blvd exit from the Qew. This has been a common gathering place for Ontario Ventureriders going south. The attached map shows directions from the Burlington Skyway. https://www.google.ca/maps/dir/43.298517,-79.7974207/43.2059201,-79.5979947/@43.2092756,-79.6019574,17z/data=!4m4!4m3!1m0!1m0!3e0?hl=en Exact address if you want to put it in your GPS is 424 S Service Road Grimsby, ON

Congratulations on your 30 year success. If you post your itinerary we may be able to set up some impromptu meet and greats along the way.

Good to hear ...So I guess we will see you up here soon.

I do the same. By the time I use front brake only and put both feet down I am pretty much stopped anyway. Both feet stay on the pegs balancing the bike until pretty much the last second. I find trying to put one foot down too early while still braking with the other tends to upset my balance.

Maybe let Hal take the shot. Apparently those new I eyes of his are like laser targeting. Man he got his last buck from an amazing distance ........I believe it was in around 12 feet. Of course with a bow I understand you need to be a llittle cloooooserr.

Hey Reiny just make sure you can out run Hal in case you miss .....

Like Evan I changed mine in about ten minutes and I didn't take the wheel or anything else off. I just reached in with a long screw driver and that was it. I was very careful not to distort the clamps and used a bit of dum dum on the end of the screwdriver to hold the screw while I reassembled it.

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.
