  2. All this talk about a depressed economy and yet folks are lined up two deep outside the Foot Locker store at the Sprawl of America just to get a raffle ticket to be allowed to spend $1,800.00 for a pair of Nike sneakers????????? :bang head:
  3. Are any of the Houston members planning to ride motorcycle escort for Wreaths Across America (Houston Link). It is next weekend, 12/10. SCHEDULE 6:00am Staging Begins at Wal-Mart Porter 7:00am Safety Briefing 7:15am KSU 8:00am-8:15am Arrive at Houston National Cemetery I've ridden this the last couple years and am planning to make it this year too. Here's a video from last year. I'm the guy about 2/3 of the way through in the right channel.

  4. Paint that Flag....For all to see!!!!! Boomer...who sez patriotism is not dead in America!
  5. Another member started a thread about having not received their Star branded iPod Touch yet. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=60075 From the other thread... "reason for getting the ipod touch is that Clarion no longer makes the CD changers for Yamaha. I have the cable in the saddlebag but no CD changer. I was told the dealers don't know a lot about what is going on with the ipod touch. The ipod touch will come with an adapter to plug into the CD cable in the saddlebag. This ipod touch is the replacement for the CD changer." I did a search and found a Chinese site that indicated production numbers of 60,000/year for the Venture. In it it describes the audio system : "Single-point audio control system for AM/FM radio, CB radio, cassette, and intercom.MP3-compatible and headset-ready.The system also includes a Star-branded iPod touch®(8GB) with an iSimple™Solutions audio interface by AAMP of America." http://fooktaitrade.en.made-in-china.com/product/DqXxzEdbnopv/China-2011-YAMAHA-Royal-Star-Venture-S-Motorcycles.html I emailed AAMP of America and this was the response : "I am aware of the project. I believe that will be a Yamaha product only and will have to be source from a Yamaha dealer. The product shipped last week however I'm not sure how and when Yamaha will start the distribution. Please contacting the corp. office in the Southern California for more information. Regards Clifton Brown Aamp of America Technical Support" I think I'll be ordering one !
  6. I have had a desire for a lighter, agile bike for local riding. The 2011 America with it's under 900 cc engine feels great. It has forward controls and is very comfortable on the dealer floor. There is no way that I would ever delete my perfect 02 Midnight Venture. Has anyone had experience with the Triumph America?
  7. My friend needs a part for his '03 Triumph America. It is the ICU P/N T1291100. The dealer can get it for $606. Anyone know where he could get it cheaper? Used is ok if it works. Thanks for any help. MIKE aka Uturn
  8. Does any body have any idea how many 2nd Generation RSV's were actually produced for sale in North America? World Wide? How many are still in service? For being such a dependaple good looking motorcycle I sure don't see many around. Any guesses, facts, opinions? Ross
  9. Updated my Zumo 550. After I downloaded the update to my computer I put it on the gps. I had to pick what areas I wanted. I picked the 48 states but that leaves quite a bit off. Is there any way I can increase my memory to carry all North America? The update had a pop up that said that with all the new stuff that was included there wasn't enough room for all the maps I used to have. ????

  11. Here is a website that says it lists all pull behind trailers in North America. If you are interested in a trailer it keeps you from having to search all over for each one. http://aerobourne.com/motorcycletrailerindex9.htm
  12. When our US Navy Veterans group wanted to go for a ride on Skyline Drive, which is in the Shenandoah National Forest I found that the USGS issues what is called the America the Beautiful Access Pass which will get people with permanent disabilities into National Parks and other National Recreation Areas for free... I showed the Park Ranger my VA disability paperwork and now I have one!!!!!! To my surprise our entire group has permanent disabilities (as deemed by the Veterans Administration) and we all have the passes now. It also MAY get you a 50% discount on camping and other things... It will NOT get you free parking. Click HERE to learn more.
  13. To All My Democrat Friends: Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2008, but n ot without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee. To My Republican Friends: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
  14. I thought we were in trouble when store clerks could no longer make change without relying on their cash register to tell them how much change was due. Yesterday proved me wrong. I also showed me how much trouble the US was really in. I have been looking at GPS units for the company vehicles. Given the abuse they would receive and the chances of them being stolen, I don't want to invest a whole lot of money into them. Anyway, I came across a good buy (so I thought) on the Magellan 3100 North America. The price was right, so I purchased one top try it out. Got it home and found out, to my surprise, that Magellan apparently considered the entire North America to consist of 48 states. Okay, foolish me. So, I figure what the heck, I can upgrade it and down load the maps for Canada. No can do. The 3100 is no upgradeable. So, back to the store I go. Tell the clerk at customer service I want to return the unit. She asks why and I tell her. This confuses her, and she calls the manager over. Explain to the manager that I had expected the 3100 North America version to at least have maps of Alaska and Canada. He looks at me like I'm crazy. (I probably am, but that is beside the point) Anyway, he states, will all seriousness that there are only 48 states in North America. This catches me completely off guard, and I ask him where he thinks Canada, Mexico and Alaska are. He responds by telling me that Canada is a foreign country, and Mexico is in South America. Should have realized at this point, that it was a lost cause. But I still tell him that actually Canada and Mexico are part of North America. To this he responds that he didn't think that Magellan would make that kind of a mistake. And if what I said was true, the high schools were teaching the wrong information. :bang head: And this was the store manager. Anyway, he took the unit back. I went to another store and purchased a Garmin Street Pilot.
  15. WE NEED THIS INFORMATION PASSED ON TO EVERY RED-BLOODEDAMERICAN!!!!!! 33 Senators Voted Against English as America 'sOfficial Language June 6, 2007On Wed, 6 Jun 2007 23:35:23 -0500,"ColonelHarry Riley USA ret" wrote: Senators, Your vote against an amendment to theImmigration Bill, 1348, to make English America's offical language isastounding. On D-Day no less when we honor those that sacrificed inorder to secure the bedrock character and principles of America . I canonly surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to illegal aliens. I don't much care where you come from, what yourreligion is, whether you're black, white or some other color, male orfemale, democrat, republican or independent, but I do care when you're aUnited States Senator, representing citizens of America and vote againstEnglish as the official language of the United States Your vote reflects betrayal, politicalsurrender, violates your pledge of allegiance, dishonors historicalprinciple, rejects patriotism, borders on traitorous action and, in myopinion makes you unfit to serve as a United StatesSenator...impeachment, recall, or other appropriate action is warrented. Worse,four of you voting against English asAmerica 'sofficial language are presidential candidates: Senator Biden,Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd, and Senator Obama. Four Senators vying to lead America but won't ordon't have the courage to cast a vote in favor of English as America'sofficial language when 91% of American citizens want English officiallydesignated as our language. This is the second time in the last severalmonths this list of Senators have disgraced themselves as politicalhacks.....unworthy as Senators and certainly unqualifed to serve asPresident of the United States. If America is as angry as I am, you will realizea back-lash so stunning it will literally rock you out of yourpanties...and preferably totally out of the United States Senate. The entire immigration bill is a farce...youraction only confirms this really isn't about America , it's aboutself-serving politics....despciable at best "Never argue with an idiot; they'll drag youdown to their level and beat you with experience." ~ anonymous The following senators voted against makingEnglish the official language ofAmerica : Akaka (D-HI) Bayh (D-IN) Biden (D-DE) Wants to be President?
