here is the trick to staying married as long as i have, (43 years). take the boss to the mall everyday, notice i said boss, (you have to let her think she is). you will never have enough money to afford the lawyers for a divorce. shoot the stoner hippy. it works i have 4 bikes. and no hippy to annoy me. :rotf: snarley bill
She had all the freedom and money in the world. Perhaps too much. Had she been required to work 9-5 maybe she'd have had a better idea of the world and responsibility. And loyalty.
As for him, I am just going to keep my thoughts as thoughts...

I can't say that I know how any of you feel. I've been married 23 years as well but so far things are ok. I won't say there haven't been close calls. Neither of us has cheated but there have been other pressures that have come closer than I would like. We lived apart for 4 months due to job issues but it was almost a trial separation at the time. Things are tough right now because I'm unemployed but I hope that changes when the stress gets better.
I will say tat I have to agree about keeping something to help you get through. I know that when I thought we were headed for divorce, the bike was all that kept me sane. There's just no therapy like getting knees to the wind. Not for me at least. I hope that what ever happens it turns out for the best.
We had our ups and downs. Then she decided to live a double life, being single while I was at work/out of town and married the rest of the time. Fooled us all for months. If she'd put as much effort into fixing us/her that she did in her affair, things would be different.
But they aren't and that is just how it is. I've joined the percentages now. Bike not an easy decision, but the right one of the time.

don't have a solution for that one. forget the diamonds.
Neither did I.

It does get better but the longer you were married the longer it takes sometimes.
Personally keeping the bike is great therapy. Sometimes just getting on and riding can clear away the anger and frustration. But if you have other toys and this one just has to go thats Understandable. Otherwise try to hang onto it or better yet sell it and Buy a 1st Gen:big-grin-emoticon:
Either way take from someone whose there too keep something to show yourself that theres positives in your life . It helps you to move forward. Your might still be temped to look back but doing it through a set of mirrors is the best way.
It was 23-years. But I guess in reality the last 6 months didn't count. Family just didn't know it. That's life.
There's light at the end of the tunnel. Right now it seems to be an oncoming train. People tell me things improve. I see it all around me. Just have to change some things and ride out the bad pavement here. Lotto or sound decisions I'll be back in the saddle one day. Just won't work for now.

That's an excellent price for that bike!!
BTW, what number bike is it?
Now if someone would just buy it for that. LOL
It is #469.
-
Hold firm to your price. That is a beautiful bike, if I had not just bought a 99 in June I'd be all over that deal.
Best of luck in selling it.

Thanks. I think she's worth it. Just boils down to the actual cabbage someone is willing to part with.
-
Thats a Beautiful bike! I have room in the garage just not enough money in the bank. Sorry you have to let it go and wish I could take it off your hands. Good Luck.
You and me both. LOL
I've had people calling to trade. Um, it's listed for SALE, not trade.
Then another wanted to know "what's your bottom dollar?". Well hell, why don't I just give it to you instead of being silly and selling it. Sigh.
-
i would have to fall in love again to keep the bike. promise her diamonds, anything to keep the bike. you don't have to mean it. could work. :cool10:
Well, the part where she went screwing around with the stoner hippy pretty much ended that option...

I also heard it was raining pretty hard in KY.
When it rains , it pours , as they say
Lucky for me I'm not in Louisville. They got 7" in an hour. Yikes!
-
So sorry to hear that, I hope somehow things get better.
Everyday is something different. It will never be the same, but people keep telling me it gets better.
Thanks.
-
Wish it weren't, but can't afford both the divorce and the scoot. My RSV is in the classifieds if anyone is interested or knows of someone looking.
Thanks.

Hi,
Where did you see the Front Lowering Directions?
There is a write up on here under the 2nd gen technical for Lowering the Front End.
Basically you take off the fairing and slip the triple tree down on the forks.
-
That looks easy enough. Familiar with those (duh) since I used them on a car many years ago.
Just got done rerouting my cables. Still doesn't return on their own on hard turn. And I can't ride it yet to see if I have them adjusted correctly.
But she's lowered fore and aft!

I made up some new rubber bumpers out of hockey pucks. They've been on there for 2 years and work great.
Rod.
Have any pics of those pucks? Installed, not just new pucks. LOL
-
Here ya' go. Sorry it took so long to post pics. I have been struggling with cranial rectitus.
Thanks for the pics!
I finally got off my kiester today and installed the kit. Took it for a short ride since I don't have my fairing back yet, but it felt great!!

Can someone point me a thread that show modifiying to RK pipes for a little more sound. I just put a set on my '08 RSTD would like a little more sound, not much more though. The pipes did not have the cat. Converters in them. Thanks!
There is a write up on the Delphi Forum start page, down at the bottom for RK mods;

Also, here on the forum there is a write up with pics if you want to do some mod work from the stock cans;

Thanks for the picture and suggestions. I like the look. Thanks!

LOL. I've had such an issue before.
Thanks for the pics. Helps out.

That's the biggest thing, safe mode.
Some malware gets in and won't let Sypbot or AdAware get it out without running in safe mode. And some will prevent you from getting to run in safe mode. Just locks up.
If you hit a problem again, update the files for the programs, then run them from safe mode. 99% of the time that will take care of a bugger that got in.
I've been running Avast as my virus program for 5 years after giving up on Norton. Too many things were getting by it and were a royal pain to get off. Since then only had one instance of a hard to kill problem.
-
Why, yes, yes I do!
Get them. Much better.
-
Get that pic up will ya? LOL
I have the kit at the house and still havn't done it.

What did you do with the BUB set?
-
Stinking bubblehead squids...
I resemble that remark.
I've had two Millennium editions. The first one had the exact issue yours has on the antennas. My second one does not. With the looks of the rest of the first bike, I was amazed it had the issue.
Glad to see they are replacing it.
SUBMARINERS ONCE!

Diet is "die" with a "t".
My mother was diganosed as a diabetic. Put on the diabetic diet. More food in a calendar day than she'd eaten in YEARS. The weight fell off of her. That convinced me; you have to EAT to lose WEIGHT.
Studies are showing eating a good breakfast and breaking up the daily meals into 4-5 vice our typical 3 are helping. That, and getting those getoffyourassandall pills...
If you have the machine at the house (look under the cloths) put a tv in front of it. I watch some same shows all the time. Now, I watch while walking/running. I also took a good look at what I was doing with my time. A lot of it involved in nothing.
Quote I remember from somewhere; "You will never find time for anything. If you want time, you must make it."
My recovery from gall bladder surgery over, I'm going to attempt all that stuff I just said. Good luck to all of you attempting as well. The goal is to make my scale quit saying "Go Jog Fatass" when I step on it.
