    Gas prices

    Condor replied to MikeM8560's topic in Watering Hole

    Were's that BP station!! I'm paying $4.25 per gallon for Diesel and over $4 for reg. There are a couple of areas that Diesel is up to $4.50. Fill'r Up at $100+ bucks is getting old fast on the truck. $75 bucks in the Suburban get's it half a tank..... OK.. 40gal tank.... Noticed that used sailboat sails sales have been picking up. At least the wind is free...

    A couple of times when syncing, I've set the idle on #2 at 1000 rpm and then did the sync dance. When balancing L to R the idle would increase a bunch. Reset the idle back down to 1000 on #2 and re-sync'd. No problem with idle after that. I think... what's happening is the first time the idle was set the off side carbs were actually controlling the idle even though the screw is on #2, because they were set tight. When I balanced 1&3 to 2&4 it open the 1&3 butteflies up even more and the idle increased.....maybe???? Since then I generally back off the 1-3 screws about a half turn and I can't remember having problems any longer..... or maybe I'm just lucky...

    Just about everything your looking for is available on Ebay. Not all at once, but give it some time and you'll find it.... and a lot cheaper. Just be picky about condition...

    Thanks Jeff. I think we've pretty much got the price down as low as possible and still let the manufacturer make a profit.... Nice thought tho-.....

    Wish I were closer. There'd be at least 3 of us checking it out. That is cool.....

    Hey, it's your opiniion. I think folks are a lot smarter than you give them credit, and I'm not moving, unless you feel I don't have a right to be here.....

    A few years back....OK many.... Texas based insurance companies were not controlled very well, and unless things have changed anyone who wanted to start an insurance company could do so with very little in assets to pay claims. Be it life, health, or auto. They just started selling policies and collecting premiums, and if losses became too great they folded without recourse, and the insureds were left holding the bag. A big reason why premiums were less compared to non-Texas based companies. This may have changed over the years, but one of the reasons I shy away from Texas insurance carriers. My 2¢

    Good thing the bike didn't pin him... Talk about toast!! Last week I witnessed an accident where the bike tank ruptured, caught on fire, and all that was left was a black blob. A lot of bystanders emptied their extingushers on it and it still kept right on blazing away. If the rider had been pinned there wouldn't have been anything anyone could have done....

    Brad.... he's talking about the mass brace emailing... Calm down big fella........

    Dave, You ain't gonna like this.... Paypal....there I said it. The problem is the time it takes to go thru the mail systems, and the need to convert CADs to USDs. When paying by Paypal you can disignate the payment currency and the conversion is done automatically. Believe me it works great. If you need help with Paypal, as mentioned in previous posts, I can invoice you via Email. Sorry my friend.... BTW adding you to the list is no problem...

    I understand what you're saying, but I think you're missing the real point.. The most common theme in all of the posts, is that the authors have found Geico to be the most competitive after shopping around. Regardless of where they live, or what they pay.....

    Sorry about that. It's been corrected.....

    Hi Rez, I just received a note from Mark that he'll be starting production right away. Officially the order hasn't been placed yet, but just an educated guess of 3-4 weeks. If you'd like to jump on the list, we'll make some room.... and we'll need your paypal payment....

    This is a new thread with paypal instructions for submitting your payments. Below is the list we compiled in the last couple of days of those interested in picking up a fork brace for their 1stGen. The price for those in the US is $61.50 delivered, and for those members in Canada the total will be $71.00USD delivered. I'd like to get the majority of the money into the paypal account in the next couple of days before I order the 45+ braces. Those that have already sent their payments in, a big Thank You, and to those that will.... Thank You too. I was fairly confident about hitting 20, but was a little skeptical about getting 40, and we finally hit 45 and it's still growing!!! WOW!! For payments go to www.paypal.com and Enter the email address paypal@cast-aways.com Also enter your board name, and if you'd like black or aluminum. Enter the appropreate amount and don't forget to hit the send button. As stated in the previous thread it makes my life so much easier.... and less confusing If you're new to Paypal let me know and I'll walk you through it, or I can invoice you from this end. When invoiced you'll get two email. One is a 'how to' and the other is the actual invoice. Youse guys are GREAT!!!!! We have a situation that is not going to effect those who have already paid for their braces, but will effect a handfull of members on the list who do not frequent the board all that often. Because of their infrequent visits, using the PM feature isn't effective when trying to contact them, and they also have designated not to accept email in their CP. Therefore I have no way of keeping them aware of what's happening, and if their braces aren't prepaid by the time I place the order, they will not be included. Sorry to have to take this stand, but I need assurance that what I order, I can pay for. 1. CondorPDAL2. CondorPDBLK3. SqueezePDBLK4. RocketPDAL5. squidleyPDBLK6. lonestarmedicPDAL7. Ken8143PDAL8.

    We already have you on the list JavaJim.... Who's excited... Or do you want 2 of them.....??? OzarkJim too.....

    I agree with Bob on this one. Hard to find plastic, chrome, and electrical accessories are where the vaule is in the current market. Mechanicals are everywhere and a dime a dozen. It's supply and demand....

    OK, I just got off the phone with the manufacturer of the fork brace, and he's never been aware of, or been notified of any patent infringment by Super Brace in the past. The threat of legal action is taken very seriously, and from what I can gather from sb2007's second post, it seems he was just trying to 'simply to clear up any confusion and remind your members that they're not buyng a SuperBrace but a mere knockoff.' (sic) Since sb2007 didn't include any information about himself, or herself, in the CP file I can't even determine that indeed he is actually affiliated with Super Brace. If sb2007 would kindly add his name and some sort of contact information other than the linked SB website, I'd welcome a person to person chat to see where we've actually violated any laws. If we have then we will by all means discontinue any further activity. I can understand Super Brace wanting to stiffle any competition but to do it in a threating manner doesn't help with customer relations, or future referals.

    Hi Pete, You'll need to log in on www.Paypal.com and follow the instructions posted a couple messages above. If you've never used Paypal before you'll have to register and then submit the payment. Any trouble send me a PM and I'll get you taken care of.
