  3. Go to the department of transport for a small fee they usually will give you a list of previus owners. In Ontario you can get a used vehical package, wth the vehicales ownership History. I don't know if other provinces do this as well.
  4. I have even got phone calls like that and they want my personel info so they can verify it is really me. Its really me I tell them, they say they need authentic verificatio.So I put the person next to me on, and they say Yup its really him. then Hangup.:banana:
  5. I just copy and paste along with the entire article. When I paste it everything looks OK then when I recheck the forum the picture is gone. I also wonder if it just shows up that way on my PC or does everyone see a red X instead of a picture
  6. From personal experience I can tell you that If the steering head is too loose it will wander but this can also happen if the steering head is too tight. If it is too tight the bike wont track a natural line, and you are using your arms to physically and constantly correct the bike. which gets very tiring.

    Red X

    How come when ever I try to post a picture on the forum instead of making it an attachement it comes up as a red X instead of showing the picture :think:
  8. Television set..... and stay in the house
  9. Considering that I ..I mean some people often shut the engine down by putting the kick stand down, and then walk away from it leaving the key on which drains the battery I would consider it very useful.
  10. *WHAT A REAL WOMAN DOES* A real woman is a man's best friend. She will never stand him up and never let him down. She will reassure him when he feels insecure and comfort him after a bad day. She will inspire him to do things he never thought he could do; to live without fear and forget regret. She will enable him to express his deepest emotions and give in to his most intimate desires. She will make sure he always feels as though he's the most handsome man in the room and will enable him to be the most confident, sexy, seductive, and invincible. . . http://venturerider.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=52464&d=1291539404 No wait...

  15. Well my Wife, Mrs saddlebum, and I have have been Married 33 years today. I first met her when because I was on crutches due to a motocross wipeout. With only a good left leg and three pedals in the car I was unable to drive up to my best friends place. so, he and his girl friend (who was my wifes cousin) arranged to have her pick me up to take me to his house. At this point I did not even know who she was, other than that she came up from St Louis, to spend some time visiting with her cousin. Next thing I knew we started dating, then marriage, then five kids and finally a grandson, At the rate I'm going I will be as old as Marcarl in no time. Other than getting old I have no regrets, I married a wonderful women, and cannot even imagine being married to anyone else.

  22. What I would like to know is why all these smily scoots look like 2nd gens Is there a conspiracy here or is it just because they haven't made a camera with a shutter speed fast enough to catch a first gen in motion.
