Have one just collecting dust. Hitch and wiring harness only, dont have the bolts

Wife gave me mine when I retired from active duty.

\Got it. I sync'd at 1000 RPM but cant remember if I leveled them out at 24 or 26. Just wanted to make sure I didn't bugger anything up.

Just out of curiosity.. what happens if you sync below 26ish?

11.5 inches, 55 mph wind gusts, 45 mph sustained. Digging out now. Why the hell do I still live here?!?

Did some work on mine this winter as well. Had it out yesterday for a quick spin to test it all before the foot of snow hits..

Kinda what I was thinking. I was looking at the 500-750 range. Nothing really around here (that is road worthy in his price range) at the moment.

Well.. Momma G does not even want him on that.. I am soooo in the dog house at the moment.

MSF is a no brainer. Its mandatory in our household.. I re-take it every few years (the advanced course). Also counts as your riders test, road portion, here in ND. As for the VStar... thats a newer bike then mine! But.. nice find.. thanks!

What would be a good recommendation for a "starter bike"? He is 6'3" and skinny. Fits and likes a Yamaha FZ-09 well. He likes the crotch rockets, not sure if that is a good start. Ideas?

Amen to that!

To the folks in this forum. This weekend, brakes, plugs, cleaned, carbs synched, oil changed, and ready to go now. I could not have done any of this without the help of all of you. so.. Thanks!

Unless the software says its not compatible with XP, you are ok. Win 7 has a "run in XP mode" feature, that I find handy with older versions of drivers. Dell may not have a driver specificdally for Win 7, but you can load it in XP mode and run it fine. Long story short.. even if your software does not specifically say WINDOWS 7.. you may still be able to run it.

I have larger hands as well.. I have a Taurus PT740 (.40) as CC, little small, but with the grip extension it fits fine, and I don't notice it when I carry it. I also shoot and sometimes carry a Springfield XD 40 (.40), and Taurus PT92AF (9mm). Springfield is a great gun. Have over 1K rounds through it, no jams, very well balanced, fits my hand great, and accurate. Taurus 92 is a bigger pistol, also over 1K rounds down range, 5 inch barrel, but its basically the same sidearm I carried for 20 years in the service. Knockoff Beretta. Also fits great, eats any brand of ammo I feed it, very accurate. (can hit a 1 foot plate at 75 yards 80-90% of the time). Dad has hands like mine and swears by his Beretta PX Storm. The you can change out the spine of the grip to make the grip bigger. We also put a pachmyr (sp) rubber slide on grip over it, and he love it. Uses it as his CC. Best opinion I can give.. go to the counter and see what fits your hand right. Do research on reliability.. and see if the gun counter has a "try before you buy" rule. Sometimes, they have a used model they will let you shoot before you buy new. Never hurts to ask.
