Whew...! I just got done servicing the rear end of my bike...what a joy. I put on a new E3 rear tire, cleaned, greased and installed zerks in the lower rear shock mount hardware, greases the drive shaft, (the top splines were dry but clean). I got a tube of heavy, hi temp moly grease, (less than 6 bucks at Canada's handyman wonderland, Princess Auto), and lubed the crap out of everything. I haven't had a chance to drive it yet since my mufflers are in for repair. When I took them off, they sounded like they were full of ball bearings. I sawed the back off and bashed, beat and pried until the loose bits came out. I will weld it up tomorrow, (minus the crappy guts), and then wrap it in heat tape. It should be purdy...

Just a short thought about sunset and sunrise. When you see the shadows have grown long And your still riding on The shadows point to those who cannot see For the sun is behind me And when the shadows point towards thee Those coming from behind, Its thee they don't see. Ok, I ain't no poet but thought if it sounded really dumb you may remember it.

Looking for slip on exhaust for my 2006 RSTD. Does not seem to be many available for this model. Looks like BUB and maybe Sampson are my only options. Are there any more Manufacturers out there? I did run into a guy whose Venture sounded pretty good who said he pulled off the ends, drilled some holes. Any ideas?

Vance & Hines or Bubs? I rode yamahamer's this weekend and he has Bubs, so I know what those sound like. I have only heard Vance & Hines on YouTube, but they sounded pretty sweet too. What do you think?

Got the new I basket installed today. Raining so I haven't had a chance to see if it made a difference or not. Brought the bike home in the trailer. Just driving into the trailer it sounded quieter. Will know in the morning when I ride it to work.

My brother sent this to me and it's definately something to ponder. And they're building bikes!! http://www.coatesengine.com/ http://www.coatesengine.com/videos.html http://www.coatesengine.com/motorcycle.html I wish the motorcycle video were of a better quality, and from what I could hear the thing sounded kinda funky. But they're taking orders.... Wonder how a Venture V4 would behave..

Got to thinking about it when Sledgehammer changed his name. Well, it seemed kind of awkward if someone were to shout across a parking lot, "Hey u-s-s-45!" so I thought about it and decided to switch names and Switch sounded reasonable and had a good ring to it so Freebird was good enough to change it for me. Thanks much, Don.
