I think your easiest way out of this is the reload then. The windows registry is a fickle and unwieldy beast. CCleaner goal is to try and keep it somewhat under control by removing garbage left in the registry by other programs and such. In general it does a good job.

Cowboy is spot on. I had the same issue on My '06 when I hit about 95K miles on it.

I've used CCleaner in the past with no issues. It sounds more like a piece of adware or malware got installed and CCleaner while doing somethings well is not a tool for that. These things probably slowed down the performance. Go to Malwaybytes (https://www.malwarebytes.com/) and download the 'free' version, it's really a 14 day trial. Run that to try and clean it up. I personally have the paid version on my home machines. Also remember that as monthly updates get installed from MS, Apple and the various Linux OSs that they all add to their product and slowly begin to cut at your performance. If this does not help then a reload or recovery of the operating system may be necessary. Backup all your important data, pictures and generally anything else you want to keep to an external drive. There is a Seagate 2 Terabyte unit on Amazon right now for $60 ModelSTGX2000400. It's a pain, just had to do it on my wife's but. . . .

I had removed mine and made a small wood box for storage in its place. Worked fairly well and made sure to seal it from water as best I could.

I wasn't able to put much into retirement the until I was a little over 40 for various reasons (other than my house) so at the moment I'm more aggressive on the strategy. My 401K is with Schwab and I'm sitting at about 13% growth this calendar year. Mostly in their Large company and International groups. I went very conservative under the previous Admin as I just didn't agree with their Policies and still took a little beating . I knew this Admin would be aggressive and figured I'd do the same. It has paid off as I'm up over 25% since Jan 2017. The one thing we did over the last 20 years though is buy a house and then upgraded both square footage and location as we needed to move (Cleveland, OH and now in Houston, TX). This was in lieu of a retirement account for a while. That's put us in an area where the houses are selling like hotcakes and the current valuation just put me up almost 100K in 5 years. Looking to buy much more modestly, some rural land somewhere and put a small house on it. Then when the time comes I'll lease out the house we have now. Currently lesser homes in our neighborhood are getting 2500 - 2700 monthly and netting over 2000 a month, mostly transient oil execs. Leasing it out will add to our available monthly funds. I'm 53 at the moment and have some time left so I will be a little more aggressive than some on the investing. Will the House thing work out? Only time and the market will tell.

Living in Houston for the last 10+ years it has been blown tire remains. They're everywhere, Even in the HOV lanes and riders here call'em road gators. I ride 35 highway miles one way for work and well before dawn. A few weeks ago I was cruising around 75 and came across a small mine field of these things eventually hitting one bending the oil cooler line, denting the oil filter enough to blow the seal and catching some wiring. I see cages with blown tires ever day and they ride the rim to get off the highway. Lately I've been seeing more truck retreads than normal but it feels like a million degrees Kelvin on the road too. That said a ride on the bike is always 100% better than a drive in the cage as I can get to work with out being to hot and I can shower or jump in the pool when I get home.

This is exactly why I fell in love with the Ventures early on. I was able to pull the front wheel in 3rd and then I got to ride one for a summer while a friend was deployed. I took a hiatus after having kids as my wife was scared of an accident. Once the youngest was a senior I immediately when looking for one. bought the Gen 2 and put 70K on it in 5 years before buying the SVTC end of April this year.

I'm a newbie to this forum and have never met Bob. You can feel the true love everyone has for him and it is my loss for not know him: Safely Home by Unknown I am home in Heaven,dear ones; Oh, so happy and sobright! There is perfect joyand beauty In this everlastinglight. All the pain andgrief is over, Every restlesstossing passed; I am now at peaceforever, Safely home inHeaven at last. Did you wonder I socalmly Trod the valley ofthe shade? Oh! but Jesus' armto lean on, Could I have onedoubt or dread? Then you must notgrieve so sorely, For I love youdearly still; Try to look beyondearth's shadows, Pray to trust ourFather's Will. There is work stillwaiting for you, So you must not idlystand; Do it now, whilelife remaineth-- You shall rest inJesus' land. When that work isall completed, He will gently callyou Home; Oh, the rapture ofthat meeting, Oh, the joy to seeyou come!

My Brother-in-Law had a Red 305 Dream when I was 12. I used to run/jump on it to ride it and thought it was the greatest thing under the sun at the time. He and my sister moved to NC that summer and someone hit him in the rear sending him sliding down the highway at 55 - 60. The bike was totaled and he was super lucky to survive. He spent the next couple of days in the hospital and came away with severe road rash and if I remember only had a broken wrist. I remember seeing him a year later and his back looked like a cheese grater. He never rode again that I know of. I would love to find one of these just to ride it. My wife has a 1 bike rule, for good reason too as I'd probably fill the garage.

Don, sorry to hear about this and we will all be keeping you in our thoughts. Along the line of BlueSky I have several friends who swear by acupuncture. One had similar descriptions of symptoms you have listed. One was a cancer patient with nephropathy and the Dr.'s told him to accept it and learn to live with it. He did the acupuncture and says he is 'cured' of the nephropathy now.

I'm just not into EVs as they do nothing for me. One way or the other, I'm not against them either, what ever you want. I ride ~70 miles round trip to work every day. I love this time on the bike, even in heavy stop and go traffic when the ride can be grueling hot in Houston. My schedule permits me to miss the height of rush hour but it is not uncommon for me to be on the road more than an hour one way. I agree 100% with Freebird, my back would kill me on an sport bike. Also, while there are a few garages that have plug ins for EVs, mine does not. Who knows they may add them. I work with a few people who say I'm polluting the air and they can't wait to see everyone using EVs. It's always a fun conversation for me because I love to discuss conflicting views. I get to learn and hopefully I get to teach but for some reason a few of the EV crowd still seem to believe that they add to pollution too. I asked one where he thought his charging power came from and he said the building. After I spewed my coffee and quit laughing I still could not get him to understand that his power came from either nuclear, coal, natural gas and to a far lesser extent solar and wind.

I have a Pitbull lift I used on my RSV without issue but I'm having issues with the SVTC. I just does not lift it stable and leans to the back. Their site has no adapters yet. Thoughts and ideas appreciated. I did find this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk_ACKScmQc but I believe there is still too much lean to the back.

Sales matter - and Indian was outselling Victory. Polaris is going to grab anything they can from any of their lines to make money. I hate the fact that if you want the Indian look, i.e. the traditional front fender that encompasses the wheel, you now have to pay extra on a large chunk of the models. But even if I built it the way I wanted it - I'd choose the SVTC again, hands down.

My issue wasn't so much height as I needed a slight height and to reduce the reach a little. I can open the gas cap itself without issue and move the bars fully in either direction after the flip lid is opened. I'll probably be tweeking it for a while. I ride every day to work so any adjustments are normally on the weekends.

My son and I finally put on some 2" risers yesterday. Working on the adjustments yesterday too. Because I am shorter getting the offset to the back was a little interesting with the gas cover. Having that flip backwards has always been the only thing I've had issues with. As long as the bars are square I can open and close the cover other than that the bars don't interfere with it. It can be done by yourself but much easier with a second person.

Thanks for everything you do Freebird. It may be time to look into an add on for the site that requires some form of multi factor like reCAPCHA. I don't know what this site uses on the back end but I'd be willing to help research options. I for one would be willing to pay more for my membership to help pay for it too.

Unfortunately I believe it would hurt the site. Watching the stats there are many guests that visit. I myself am new to the site within the year. I monitored many sites as a visitor before I registered for this one. I was on a small forum that basically just phased out after implementing a 'no free "visitors"' viewpoint. I've gotta say though that it worked out for me as this site is a good one.

Sounds like our kids will handle everything just fine. We are the silent majority until we get ticked off enough then we set everything right. Aerospace is where it's going to be the next 50 years especially on the tech side. A lot was made with some of the NASA closings but I see all of that changing and privatizing. I'm sure you're super proud of both their hard work and accomplishments too. On the government and political side remember what they were saying about the 60's love children taking over politics and remember that our government structure has withstood some very poor leadership in the past - Jimmy Cater for example. I know all my kids are absolutely appalled by the Socialistic agenda of some of our politicians so I have faith that we will not fall into that chasm of futility.

Don't be 'scared' of this generation :-). I was 3 when the landing happened so I obviously remember nothing of it. I have 3 grown children and 2 grandchildren, my daughter is a successful business woman, both of my sons served in the Army, my oldest son was a nurse, is currently a Dialysis Nurse and has been know to save a life or two while my youngest was an MP in the Army and has started a career as a mechanic. I look forward to what they accomplish. Every generation has declared the following one sorry or scary but look at the advancements that continue to be made. Like the aforementioned phone in your pocket, we now have cars that drive autonomously (although safely can be debated), we have built on technology and lessons learned from previous generations. Yes we do slide back occasionally but we continue to rise and grow and build. Generation after Generation has continued to improve areas of the previous generations work. That is what is great about humanity. Our curiosity, our passion and our driven nature to be better. Yes we have our moments but we will always rise from our falls to be better.

Good News, bent oil cooler line (corrected) New filer / oil of course. The odd ball was the tread kicked up and damaged some of the wiring (haven't look at what wiring yet) but repaired/replaced that. $280 and she's all set. Now the shop did degrease it fairly well but I need to detail it now. The next thing is to look at fab'ing some form of cover plate. The Oil filter and oil cooler lines are awfully vulnerable. It makes it easy to change the oil filter but if we can prevent this type of damage we should. If this would have happened in a more remote area . . . . Goal is to make it relatively easy to remove too. Even something with a wire lined zip tie connection could work. Anyone have any thoughts?

Thank you Sir. I honestly love the way the SVTC handles. I think the Gen2 I was riding last year would have made the ride a lot worse. Keeping fingers crossed on no major issues.

Riding to work this morning (5:30) came across the remnants of a shredded tire. While i missed most of it I hit one of the larger pieces that was in a shadow of the street light. At 75 that was . . . . . . Lets just say interesting. Kept it upright but where I was at there was no immediate area to pull off. Got to a decent spot with in a 1/2 mile. I believe it's the Oil cooler line in front of the oil filter but anyway they got pushed back into the oil filter unseating it and oil was everywhere. Bike was throwing error codes 11 and 90. The electric assist motor was not working. Finally go towed to the mechanics place. Told them to go through everything with a fine toothed comb. Should know more tomorrow.

I'll be picking up risers soon. The handlebar shape of the Gen 1 and that era of Yamaha with the downward sweep of the grips is what I really liked. I had an old Yamaha 400 Special II that had the grips almost vertical. That was interesting to ride to say the least so I went back to the factory bars after a few months.

Great find. I love the older Yamaha's handle bars to no end. I love the TC I have now and loved the '06 Gen 2 I had but the handle bars on the Gen 1 I rode were my favorite of the lot. They just seemed to fit me perfectly. Wish they would've kept that format. You should have miles and miles of fun on that.

I've heard this in the past about several different brands. There is a Darksiding board which has a good reference to tried and tested CT's for bikes. I've personally ran a Nexan on my RSV for a couple of years and put ~20K on that tire. It felt very stable while hitting twisties and was awesome in rain. https://darkside.nwff.info/?p=tires
