Scott, I'm glad to see you are starting to feel up to things again. I know it is a long road, but I am sure you will get there, please yell if you need an ear for a while or anything else.

In case you did not know, you need to send that PM to Skydoc_17.

SEEE!!!

Blue here to. Red is to much to look at comfortably for any length of time. I am an old nocturnal critter. Green is to dark, on my laptop it is hard to read. Gray is just to, well gray, It is the season of grey skies, I just plain don't care for it. Blue is just right for me. AND I have a hard time dealing with change.........

"New Posts" Not so new. On the old site once you leave the site, the next time you come back and click "New Posts" you just got all new posts since your last visit. Now when I click "New Posts" I get all unread posts back to the last time that I went to "Forum Actions" > "Mark Forums Read". The old "New Posts" would do the mark all forums read for you with out having to go to a pull down and do it manually. Is there any chance of getting the old functionality back?? I know it is only another 3 mouse clicks. But I have already worn a hole in the center of my touch pad on my laptop.

Yup. Time to jumper the CMU and you will be set to go. If you think you might be going to HID headlight someday, jumper those while you are in there.

:rotf: :rotf: :rotf: :rotf: It sounds like the tool missing from your arsenal is a chain saw..........

Oh man. That don't sound good. But glad to hear that he is on the road to recovery. Adding Yooper to my list of prayers. I hope to be up in the UP of MI in a couple of weeks doing my best to thin the deer herd.

Welcome aboard. But you do realize hat you are dangerously close to the Ol Cowpuc....... AND even more dangerous, you are only a lake width away from me.

I seem to good at the performance of OOPS lately.......

He did not specify a year, so Oct 15 is only 11-1/2 months away.

I just ignore the leaves. It will not be long before a good wind comes and then they are all gone.

Well I'm feeling much better now. Done with the pain pills, just some discomfort left. Go back to the the surgeon on Friday to see when he will release me back to work and having fun. Today I went back to the cardiologist, He referred me to a more special specialist. We shall see.

I tried to use advanced search to find one of my old threads. I was searching for "resistor" in a thread started by me. Advanced search finds nothing. Regular search did find it but it but it found all threads by anyone with "resistor" in them I finally found mine on page 4 of looking thru all of the posts. IS advanced search not working yet? or is there something where it only searches threads since the change? Or have I taken toooo many pain pills again.......

I don't think the search function is working correctly yet. Here is the thread; www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?77042

Does it do this at crising speed or just at a stop? It is fairly common to see this when stopped and the engine at idle. When idling, the Stator is at a very low output level and so when the turn signals illuminate the extra draw on the electrical system is causing a slight voltage drop in the charging system. That is why the rest of the lights go dim. This is nothing to worry about. Now if this is happening whil the engin is at cruising speed, then it may be the beginings of an electrical problem on the bike. This could be anything from a dirty / corroded connection to a stator or Regulator/Rectifier (RR) that is on the way out.

But you know I will get blamed for it.....

Were you in Chicago? That would be normal driving.........

I was told it might be to dangerous to go up the hill to turn it off..........

I told you it was coming...........

Leave him alone, he is busy hanging cool banners......

Nice!!!

I have no choice. in order to fit a little more than 8 feet of bike into an 8 foot shed I have to turn the steering full right as it hitd the corner of the shed. So it is just habit that I always turn the steering right. I don't even know if the steering lock works on my bike. I know they say you are supposed to drink your alcohol, but I always eat mine.

If you go somewhere that the weirdos of this site can not go, you will be awful lonely.......
