  1. I read one of your other articles where you bad mouth and bash Harley Davidson MC. Well that’s fine that you don't like them but a lot of other people do. Yes the design is old school but then a lot of us are old school and it is a classic design. I don't presently own a Harley but I have and I like them. I just can't or don't choose to pay the money to own a new on. Actually I like a lot of different bike that go by a lot of different names, and yes there a lot with Japanese names. I have never owned a BMW either but every time I see one it seems to have a bazillion miles on them so I can only guess that they are ridden and must be pretty reliable. If new and improved means super sport bikes (crotch rockets)? Then please keep them, I have no interest in doing wheelies and stunts to see if I can do something a little dumber than the other guys that do that kind of thing. I presently ride a RS Venture Midnight and I am perfectly happy not doing wheelies and power braking to stand on my front wheel. I want to get on ride half way across the country if I want to and not worry about a break down. That gets me to my real point. Every body has different needs and you ride the bike that fills that need the best. So if that is a classic MC or a Chopper of a Cruiser or even a rode sofa.... go for it. Bashing other makes just don't cut it for me. Like em, don't like em, your prerogative. Don't tell me or others they are sheep because of your hang ups. BTW if you want to meet some sheep if were you I'd walk into a biker bar and tell all the Hell's Angle that they are all a bunch a pussies I mean sheep. I am sure they can show you the errors of your ways. Have a great day and enjoy. Oh ya Welcome to America!

  7. The short answer is YES I DID! The long answer is I have been fooling around with it for about a year off and on. I got pictures od the steps and I even have a plastic template for the sides. It is a tear drop and it is skinned in aluminum. BTW Juggler I am located in North Branch 35 miles North of the cities (St.Paul/ Mpls) for non locals) if you want to take a looky see at it. Steve
  8. I got the same thing and it is the friggen tires. I have a great hearing loss and they are very loud to me. and especially when you lean. Not so much when you are straight up and down. Who would have thought that the tires can make that much noise???? Steve aka Bubber
  9. Did you sell this yet???? steve_stelter@yahoo.com

  13. Author: BobW Views: 4051 Votes: 0 Print Rate This: Excellent Very Good Good Fair Poor Well, here is my final update. After experimenting with 4 sets of mufflers, what I found is that there are actually 4 phases, not 3. In order from quietest to loudest they are: Phase 1 - Four 1/2" holes in front donut baffle plate Phase 2 - Phase 1 plus drill out center rear baffle with 1-1/8" hole saw Phase 3 - Drill out ONLY the front and rear center baffles - NO holes in front donut baffle plate. Phase 4 - Phase 2 plus drill out the front center baffle (Four 1/2" holes in front donut baffle and remove front and rear center baffles.) Phase 1 is a nice pleasant low tone, muffler. Louder than stock RK or RSV mufflers. (Of course your lawnmower is louder than stock RSV mufflers.) Phase 2 is slightly louder than the Phase 1, mostly adding volume when under load. The Phase 3 is only slightly louder than the Phase 2, with a slight more growl under load. Gives a little "bark" when you blip the throttle. I probably would not have noticed the difference between these and my Phase 2's if I hadn't been the one to change them out. (The Phase 3 is so close to the Phase 2, that for ease of modification, I would recommend simply doing the Phase 3 with the hole saw instead of fighting with drilling the 4 holes in the front donut baffle.) The Phase 4 is slightly louder and has a lower tone than the Phase 3. It is, in my opinion a nicer sound than the Phase 3. The difference between the Phase 3 and Phase 4 is that the four 1/2" holes allow more flow into the outside chamber giving it a lower tone. Same reason you get the lower tone when performing Phase 1. The old Phase 3 is now Phase 4. None of the above modifications are objectionable, and the wife says she can hear the radio fine at 15 at Phase 4 on the highway. Even the Phase 4 is nowhere near a straight pipe or Screamin' Eagle, so you don't have to worry about waking up the neighbor's baby when you leave for work in the morning. But it is loud and "growly" enough for people to take a glance when you come down the road. Each phase is only slightly louder than the previous phase, so if you decide to go up a phase, you won't have to worry about it being a significant jump that will deafen you. Some have referred to a "puffiness" in the mufflers. I only noticed this in Phase 1, not in any of the subsequent phases. Hope this is helpful.

  14. I am not sure where it is but somebody documented the different steps and just exactly what to do and expect when completed. I know I keep a copy of it in my book. I will try to find it and post the location for all to find. Maybe someone knows already and will post it. Bubber aka Steve

    Well here is the deal you told me you sent the adapter on Saturday. Great! I said I would send you a Money Order. The only problem is you have not answered one of the emails requesting an address to send the MO to. What am I to do? I always pay my bills but a little help is needed here. Please contact me if you would like to get paid. You have my home email address. The ball is in your court. Thanks. Bubber aka Steve I should learn to keep my big mouth shut! Package came today! Address is on the package. I will be sending the M.O. out ASAP. BTW THANKS. Bubber aka Big Mouth

    Carbon 1 the comment for the bike adapter was aimed at 1 UP and not specifically at you. I guess it could have been read either way I have a Venture (un-triked) 2 wheels that is, and since he has a your adapter for sale I wanted see what he wanted for it. But your on my todo list if it doesn't work out. What do you get for the complete adapter with legs again. Hey 1-up please get back to me! ASAP Bubber aka Steve
