    for what it's worth, i did a LOT of research on copperheads, a couple of years ago. i had killed one that was 34 inches long, and was curious as to how big they actually get. anything over about 23 to 25 inches long, is a BIG copperhead. there has NEVER been a recorded FATALITY, from a copperhead bite! they WILL make you sicker'n a dog, and you may think you're gonna die, but so far , no deaths recorded. just jt

    last time i remember being on the trace, left a bad taste in my mouth, and hurt my wallet! lol i believe it was 1978, 2:a.m., or thereabouts, got a ticket doing 65, in a 55. lol when i got to Shannon, miss. i swore i'd never get on the trace again! that was a lot of years ago. i'd probably LOVE to ride it , now! just jt:2143:

    i seem to recall a discussion a couple of years ago, about a "punch mark"indicating a 2nd gear repair. maybe Condor, can dredge up the thread and verify or disprove out theory. just jt

    Got Gas?

    hipshot replied to RSV Angel's topic in Watering Hole

    on Monday, of this week, gas was $3.59.9, per gallon. yesterday, it was $3.45.9. today it is $3.26.9. why are prices falling so fast, and WHO, determines the "pump price", on a daily basis? just jt

    Michael. the copper washer, that dan spoke of, is for the very bottommost bolt. in reality, is is a "drain plug", which allows the small amount of oil , trapped in the stator housing to be drained out into a container , before you remove the cover.without that copper washer, you will never stop your oil leak. just jt

    Marcy, i forgot to mention, it isn't an ENGINE whine. it is the "square cut " gears in the transmission. some have had acceptable results , by changing out the clutch basket, to the "I" model basket. nothing , it seems, completely gets rid of the WHINE. the I basket just changes the noise to a higher r.p.m. range at which it is "least annoying". just jt

    there is a "veritable encyclopedia", on here concerning the 2nd gen WHINE! just do a simple search, and you will find ALL the options, including a "goldwing" trade up! lol just jt

    Daniel, at one point, there was a thread , here, concerning people who had specialty tools, and different sized "shims", for the valve train". i think it was a "pass around, replace parts" type of deal, but off the top of my head, i can't remember WHO owns the tool, or WHERE it might be. i am sure someone, who don't have "sometimer's" will jump in here and help you out, shortly! just jt
