Leave it to a Winger to ruin the fun with the facts...

We had a restaurant/night club here called the Bum Steer. Kinda a college hangout. It was filled with "things" including a full size Cessna hanging from the ceiling. Anyways, their bathrooms had signs on the doors that said: MEN --> and So the Men's Bathroom had the The key was to get a table by the bathrooms just to watch the show of the "1st timers" hitten' the head. Always good for a laugh....especially if you brought the "1st timers"

That will teach that lady to walk in there carrying an ice cream cone...

It's those pesky CrimeStopper billboards with the $50,000 reward that keeps getting in the way. You would think I guy could get a little peace and quiet for a while...

Pictures have a way of getting on Post Office walls and America's Most Wanted... Besides the bike is way better looking than me..

Ill check my two parts bikes for the left fairing condition. One is purplish and the other is gold.

So... after a crappy day of "stuff" Ironhorse Ike and his son-in-law show up at my house late afternoon. They want to ride up the the top of the Catalina Mountains and back...about an 80 mile round trip to around 11,000 foot elevation. Nice and cool for around here. I'm busy and ticked off at some idiot at a Sprint store 2250 miles away..( long story) and too "busy" to go. The wife decides I need to go and basically kicks my butt out the door with them. Fast forward... we are at the top of the mountain getting a drink when a car drives up behind our bikes. The driver and Ike start to talk and the next thing I hear the driver ask is.. One of you guys KIC ? I'm thinking " dang.. that America's Most Wanted " thing works... Of course Ike immediate points to me in his fastest "Not me It's him" manner. Turns out it was DarkLeftArm and his obviously better half. It was nice to meet another Venture rider ( even if he does ride a 2nd Gen ) I'm sure we will be getting together for more rides soon.
-
The Harley Planner looks cool since it lets you document where the parts fell off at.....
-
Was a 1st Gen parked nearby ? I have heard that when that happens, the Harley can get real depressed and attempt self immolation out of jealousy and depression. Hey...it's just what I have heard....
-
you can run ...but you can never hide... Besides....watcha ride ..? Huh?? A coll 1st Gen or a slower jealous type 2nd Gen ??? Welcome...
-
Watcha do with the lil green men ?
-
My son rides my 89 and now has my 87 to ride once we get the carbs done, and he is 23.
-
Same story they gave in Roswell NM in 1947... you are just part of the "new conspiracy" ...
-
I am kinda thinking same thing. I can add another 45 to straighten it up. I had to get it out from under the trunk. Still a work in progress.
-
Ride safe. That is on my bucket list for some time in the future. Good Luck !

Completed my first mission today. Part of a flag line for the Run For The Wall group. I also made a flag holder. I needed one that wasn't a Reese style slider. The hitch that I am switching from the 87 to the 89 is a ball mount. Yesterday I found this little adapter for $10.00 at Harbor Freight. Bought a 1 1/4-inch 45 degree coupling, a 6-inch 1 1/4 nipple and a 7 ft pole that fit snuggly into the nipple. Need to drill a hole to secure the pole into the nipple. Maybe a support strap from under the trunk. Hopefully it will work.
-
Thanks ...It loaded without issue on my Firefox. Although... I did see a little guy jump off the bike and load all my personal info into the hard bags and ride off...
-
WOW.... what an experience for my first mission. Standing on a flag line for the first time. I was warmly welcomed and after a while of being referred as the FNG, we welcomed the Run For The Wall group. :usa::usa::usa::usa: I dedicated this Mission to our friend, Sgt Brian Walker, MP Airborne, who was killed last Sunday in an IED attack. This mission will always be a good memory for me.
-
Glad they didn't get it. All that work for nuthin! I was also relieved that when I saw your thread caption that I might open it and find my picture there..
-
That is my first PGR Mission tomorrow morning. :happy65:We are doing a flag line in Marana Arizona around 9:30AM. I'm excited
-
Could be a bad diaphragm. My 87 kept idling high and acting weird. Found a diaphragm that had more holes than a screen door. Just a thought. -
I didn't get a key with either parts bike. So I need to get around the locks. I will take my 87 and 89 keys over...maybe a spare 83 key from my friend Ironhorse Ike.
-
Hey.. how do I remove the bags from an 83 without the key ? The bags are open, but seem to be locked on the bike. I need to get the bags off so I can remove a hitch from one of my part bikes. I don't want to damage the bags. Do I drill off the locks inside ?
