  1. oil level is right up
  2. I really hate this post The envy is killing me
  3. I have started to notice that at idle and only when hot, a dry metallic type rattling noise is coming from the area of my clutch cover accompinied by a slight vibration. I'm thinking clutch but before I pull it apart I am wondering if this could be an indication of more issues that I may find inside. Anyone Else ever run into this?
  4. here are two more links re: safty equipment http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/07/03/motorcyclist-dies-helmet-protest_n_889427.html [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMXSsK7ZmtU]‪Motorcycle Rider Dies Protesting Helmets (From Head Injury)‬‏ - YouTube[/ame]
  5. Agreed but based on the video She was a passenger. Which leads to another question why the H do crotch rockets have passanger seats? IMHO this should not be allowed. It makes me shudder every time I see a pretty young teenage girl sitting perched on the fender wearing a halter top, hot pants and flip flop sandels. All the gear all the time, so true. But I must confess rideing in town I am guilty of sometimes breaking that rule. I have seen them in black and silver combo's and even blue and silver. Rocket wears a pair of denim jeans that contain some sort of abrasion resistant material. He claims you can drag him for miles and they wont rub through.
  6. I bet you would still knock some cones down or get lost in the maze.:rotfl:As for me I think the chalange is to get as maney as possible:bang head:
  7. Not fair. . . .That was a setup... ....entrapment to say the least
  8. Congratulations you two. heres to a great life together.
  9. An Elderly Newfie woman of advanced age visited her physician to ask his advice in reviving her husband's libido.. 'What about trying Viagra?' asked the doctor. 'Not a chance', she said. 'He won't even take an aspirin.' 'Not a problem,' replied the doctor. 'Give him an 'Irish Viagra'. It's when you drop the Viagra tablet into his coffee. He won't even taste it. Give it a try and call me in a week to let me know how things went.' It wasn't a week later when she called the doctor, who directly inquired as to her progress. The poor dear exclaimed, 'Oh, faith, bejaysus and begorrah! T'was horrid! Just terrible, doctor!' 'Really? What happened?' asked the doctor. 'Well, I did as you advised and slipped it in his coffee and the effect was almost immediate. He jumped straight up, with a twinkle in his eye and with his pants a-bulging fiercely! With one swoop of his arm, he sent me cups and tablecloth flying, ripped me clothes to tatters and took me then and there passionately on the tabletop! It was a nightmare, I tell you, an absolute nightmare!' 'Why so terrible?' asked the doctor, 'Do you mean the sex your husband provided wasn't good?' Lord tunderin, 'twas the best sex I've had in 25 years! But sure as I'm sittin here, I'll never be able to show me face in Tim Hortons again!'
  10. Wish I could but I work 3:30 To midnight Mon to Fri. But I sure could go for another good weekend ride.
  11. Wow good thing everthing worked out ok in the end. Hopefully everything is going to be fine for you Gary and that this was only a minor set back take good care of yourself.
  12. just to re-enforce what has already been said, don't rush things and end up with a major set back. remember the brain always thinks the body body can do what the body knows it is not ready for. So take your time get good and well 1st
  13. Thats good news hope it stays that way. Give your mother my best wishes
  14. Congratulations and welcome to the Grandpa Club:backinmyday:
  15. They likely slipped out while you were running the shears over the grind stone. Probably knew you would not hear them over the grinding noise
  16. If that is true why is that money is the biggest factor in determining guilt or innocence. The guilty people found innocent are usually pretty well off while the innocent found guilty usually can not afford a good defence.
  17. Glad to hear you are still with us and hope your road to recovery is not too harsh. Prayers are with you and good luck.
  18. Attempting to anticipate has become a big part of my sense of survival. I even tought my kids when learning to drive to watch for little things like the other vehicles front tire, abnormal vehicle movements or the movement of the out line of the drivers head. Learning to read suttle little movement of person or vehicle can make a huge difference to pre warning you of danger. It may just give you that extra second or two to protect yourself.
  19. Ok enough of the BS:backinmyday:, when is Mini going to take the shear croppers to that bush on Rockets face? That Paul is looking more frightening by the day. Soon I will have to stop checking this form, so I can sleep nights with out nightmares.
  20. If you are worried about the finish edge of the windshield it is a piece of cake. After cutting the windshield use the replaceble file used on automotive body files. These files have 1/2 moon edges along the file instead of teeth. File the rounded edge using a rocking motion rather than trying to follow the curve with the file. Once you have the curves the way you want them polish up with very fine sandpaper ( I used 600 grit) wrapped around a block. It will come out beautilly.
  21. Best of luck to you hopefully the surgary wont be as bad as it sounds
  22. Definitly looks good. Did you buy it as a parts bike ? if so I already see some stuff I would like to have
  23. Here are the pics of the Mom (my daughter) proud Dad (not my daughter) and my 2nd Grandson. P/S it was also my 1st grandsons 1st birthday 10 days ago today so I thought I would inculde a pic of him as well.
  24. At 5:30 this morning my oldest daughter gave birth to her 1st child. A 5lb 10oz baby boy, my second grandson. sorry no pics yet, but I do remember the rules. :dancefool: :dancefool: :dancefool:
  25. There is a place just just off Main street, Hamilton Ontario that will make windshields for just about anything, clear or tinted. Before my accident in 2007 I had a tinted windshield on mine that they made. after the accident I put the original back on. They used my friends old 1st gen windshield for a pattern (Which they still have). The cost at that time was $140. If you want they can alter the size or shape. They also make them for boats etc. http://www.paplastics.com/ P/S Looks Great
