Gyros have always facinated me. I just hope since it's going to be electrical it doesn't end up like all the rest and just be something that will be an around town puddle jumper. I can see the comsumption of amps to run the gyros being a limiting factor. Also the wheels act as gyros. Wonder what the effect will be at high speeds.... Gyros resist motion at 90 deg right angles. With all four working would they be in conflict????

With my carrier they covered it without any added rider. This question came up here before, and it got me to thinking about whether it was actually covered. Called them and all the wanted was the Vin#, Make, and Model. No extra premium for which I actually expected to get dinged. They covered the Motorvation. Not for quite what I thought was a resonable value, but enough to cover the cost of the replacement trailer. So I'm satisfied...

Hopefully the chain will slow them down enough that I can get to my S&W. It sets right under the bedroom window for the time being, and will end up in a much securer place later this week. http://www.cast-aways.com/CONDORPICS/Sam-Side.jpg

You might want to consider that it's not weather resistant. 12vdc power plugs are available at West Marine that are designed to stay dry. I have one on the '91VR that's installed in the upper right hand corner of the right side dash. I'll go take a pic as soon as things lighten up around here....

Looks like it's down grading to 40-50 knot winds. Should be under cat 1 huricane force by the time it gets a little inland..... It should bring some much needed rains...

Caged over to my daughters yesterday afternoon for a birthday BBQ, and coming the other direction was a group ride of about 20 bikes. Looked closer and the ride captain's bike had eye brows on the fairing. Dang...a Venture!! Started looking at the other bikes in the group and there were about 8 of them that had the 'brows'. Cool.... It must have been a group from Star Riders 153 going somewhere... It was the most Ventures I'd seen since Cody... I checked the 153 calendar, and it said something about a 'Stary Night' event, but no info on it. That's where they must have been heading.... Wonder what it was...???

Nothing like a good ol' shower to gain back a few years.

I'd go with the snug up. A 2005 is too new to be having old gasket leakage.

Walmart sells some stuff called Purple Power.... well as least it's purple. Anyway it's amazing what the stuff will do with oil. I've even used it to clean up micro towels. Let 'm soak overnight and they are clean in the morning... I'm always spilling oil and it keeps me out of the dog house....

Looks like someone's home made, and not a Venture Line. The problem you're going to run into is UPS will calculate weight based on the size of the item if they'll take one just tagged, or box size if packed. And that's going to cost more than the thing is worth.... You might try common carrier with just a tag?? Not sure how they'd handle it, but they do take tagged items.

It looks like we now have a San Juaquin Kit Fox population explosion in our back yard. Mama, Papa, and 4 pups. I did a little research... basically to find out how to find them a new home.... and discovered that they are on the endangered spieces list. Only 7000 (guestimate) known to exist. They are a sub spieces and their habitat is basically the SJ Valley and it's unusual to find them this far north. They also are very mobile and can use up to 24 different dens thoughout the year. So maybe we'll keep the cats in the house for a few weeks, and make sure none of the neighbor's go missing....

It'll help a lot when riding in the twisties and also when coming to a stop. Generally tracking at high speeds is due to the type of tire yo're runing. The OEM brace is domed on the top and hollow underneath. There are several aftermarket braces and most are flat across the top and solid aluminum. If your's already looks like the brace pictured in the classifieds, then I can't help ya. -
But.... would you ride it cross country tomorrow......??? BTW, Alaska has lots of wet gravel... in July.... be careful up there....
