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.

Hello. I am also a lurker.. I only jump in when I feel it directly applies. I too have grabbed much needed info with my first gen, so thanks to all. And for those who I have PM'd for more info (Skydoc the most..), thank you for not telling me to shove off. John

Absolutely. My only fear wold be that dealers would turn to more potent drugs. Tax the hell out of pot, take away the deficit!

Very sorry for your loss.

Thanks.. PMS eh? At least now I know the name of my "condition". As for buying... um... Any riders in the area wanna meet up someplace.. I can snag the first round!

SWEET! Sounds like a good time.

during the snow storm this week. Jumped on and REALLY wanted to go riding. I cant wait until spring right now. Just sat on the bike in the garage for a few... Is it me? Or is this common this time of year for us northern'ers?

you can go to newegg.com and pick up one of the refurbished ones there too.

Sorry I did not research all the facts before I posted. It was emailed to me, and I found it amusing. I will make sure I have all facts checked by the FOX news checkers first, before I post. G *KIDDING FOLKS* Merry Christmas!

^^ this ^^ Agree 100% It just seems that the first thing to cut is the military in some way, shape, or form.

During the 3 ½ years of WWII that started with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and ended with the surrender of Germany and Japan in 1945. The U.S. produced: 22 Aircraft Carriers 8 Battleships 48 Cruisers 349 Destroyers 420 Destroyer Escorts 203 Submarines 34 Million Tons of Merchant Ships 100,000 Fighter Aircraft 98,000 Bombers 24,000 Transport Aircraft 58,000 Training Aircraft 93,000 Tanks 257,000 Artillery Pieces 105,000 Mortars 3,000,000 Machine Guns and 2,500,000 Military Trucks We put 16.1 Million Men in uniform in the various Armed Services. Invaded Africa Invaded Sicily and Italy Won the battle for the Atlantic Planned and executed D-Day Marched across the Pacific and Europe Developed the Atomic Bomb and ultimately conquered Japan and Germany It’s worth noting, that during the almost exact amount of time, the current administration couldn't build a functioning website!
