I'm thinking again..... rare!! If the reason for outlawing ear buds is they hinder the awareness of surrounding noises, then wouldn't music in a helmet do the same thing?? And what if I wear ear buds while wearing a helmet... would I still be ill-eagle, and how would they be able to tell.... Also $500 bucks?? The Gestapo rides again....

I found two listings for my first bike. Wish I had

Here's the way I tie the '07RSV. It should work on a 1stGen just as well. The front wheel chock works great and it's cheep here in the US. It's made in China so maybe you can get a break down under as well....

Winter getting you down?? Here's where you can get an MC fix.... The Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction. https://www.mecum.com/?auction_type=motorcycle On the left side of the page click on View Lots, and then click on Thursday thru Saturday to view the bikes... Have fun....

The restriction also says headset coverings which to me means helmet audio too, or maybe even a helmet?? . However, I wonder just how many CHP are going to pull you over suspecting you might be listening to music?? Or for that matter, it seems to me this violates the helmet required law. Hey it's early and I'm bored....

When I first bought my '83 the engine was on the noisy side. When I did an oil change I went with Valvoline 20-50 MC specific wet clutch oil and was amazed at how quite she got. I suspect you may want to change your oil.....

It just may have been the meds.... But.... I think it's this 'once you've looked at it it disappears from any new post search. I've had it happen more than a few times where I've gone back after thinking about it a bit and can't find it to post. So I think the 'H' with it and move on...

Wow!! I thought I posted a response to your comment Puc, but don't see a thing on this thread??? I'm also surprised that there weren't any other responses??? I thought a few more folks would have enjoyed it?? MOF I had to go to my profile posts to find the thing. Maybe it's getting smushed somehow??

I forget.... :-)

Auto Zone and Advance Auto don't come close to Walmart......

I gotta get me one of those......

It's because oil sells slower than gas or diesel. The stuff on the shelves of major auto supply houses and the stuff in the warehouses were stocked with the higher priced oil. Since the sales are not as great as fuel the price will drop slower than those at the pump. They're not gouging. Just trying to get their investment back. Give it some time. Oil will also get very cheap. Actually the cost of refining diesel is the same as gas. When the refinery cracks crude, it all comes out of the same tower. The top is gas, a little lower is lighter oils like kerosene, and it gets heavier as it syphoned off, Diesel is about mid tower. Cold tar products are at the bottom. We used to buy diesel for $.26 a gallon back in the day. Same thing for gas in the cabin cruiser.... You're right. The cost of production plays a big part in the retail price. 20 years ago when crude sold for $50 a bbl, gas prices were below a dollar per gallon. Now we're amazed when it breaks the $2 barrier.... Walmart is so much bigger they buy products by the train load, not the car load. It's called purchasing power....

Ran across these pics while looking for something else and thought it might thaw out some of those who are freezing their a$$ off. http://www.cast-aways.com/codypics.htm They are of the Cody Round Up back in '09. Might even bring back some memories......

He does look a little lop eared, but what's he doing riding a Star Trek scoot??

Is there a lop eared varmint in Star Wars VII?? I wanna see a pic of one.....

I know the whole thing and the gear train are amazing workmanship, but the motor looks nakid without the covers. I wonder if it's possible to scan a full sized cover and reduce it to scale in a 3D printer?? It's slow... and I'm bored... :-)

DANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:clap2:

Just curious... Charging at 14.5vdc at idle isn't factory spec. You should get 14.2-14.4 above 2000rpm. At idle the reading should be a little under 12.6. Sulfating may not have been your problem.

Your sync is not right. Everything balances to carb#2 (left front). I have a sneaking hunch you have carb #4 sync screw dialed in too much and it's overriding the idle setting on #2 . That's what's causing all the problems.

1 inch

Those are some interesting pistolas ya got there. Not my cup of tea, but interesting. Anyone wanting to see muzzle flash and dust roll try shooting a 264 win mag out of a twenty inch bbl. I'm more of a traditional collector or anything that catches my eye... Going up to Woodland tomorrow to pick up a Colt Trooper .357 ca. 1958 that I picked up 10 days ago, and two 22 rifles that I bought last Thursday. I can do Cash'n'Carry on the rifles because I have an FFL3 license, and they are both C&R's.. BTW one of the rifles is a 1957 Winchester 62A pump in like new condition if anyone knows about them... I do want to pick up a Garand someday. Have 3 dozen enblocs waiting in the wings.

Another source for a shreader valve conversion is using Harley parts from their air shocks set up. You can find them on eBay with or without the shocks. I picked up a set of rear shocks complete with all the air 'fixings' and plan on installing them on the Voyager Kit....

Back in the day, before the FJ, the 1stGen's were considered by many as the first sports tourer. If things evolved on a yearly basis like other manufactures, the FJR would probably have a V4, and we'd still be calling it a Venture.
