Why the weather outside is frightful why inside its so delightful why I don't really want to go why let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Excuse me for my moment of insanity!

Been snowy here for eons. I've picked up all of the driveway snow yesterday morning and deposited it into a soon to be {Tomorrow} snow Dragon pile 30' *12', give or take. Son and grandsons are all lined up for the creation. So look out if your driving on Route 20. THERE BE DRAGONS OUT THERE! Pics to follow. Prediction here is snow for the next 7 days. Might try a Calvin & Hobbs panicked snowman swimmer being chased by sharks in the rest of the yard. Ought be good for a few laughs.

Na-na-nu-na-na. Welcome to our world. For at least a day for you.

Right now I'm a Blue biker. Blue from the cold. Nice poem. Come on spring. There are two major railroads that run across my land. One of these might be interesting to ride. Need someone to help hold it up so I can get it started rolling though.

Does anyone know where to buy any of these? They work great for holding panels together. I can't seem to find anywhere to buy them. I'm not real sure of the spelling for the name. They are flush mounted screws that tighten in one revolution.

I'm not showing this to my 2 grandsons {2&4yrs}. Bampa would have to be buying one so they both could ride. Or should I say roughhouse. It is a very clean job for a hack though. -
When nothing else works "SHAME" might.:rotfl:

That was a great story. I too had a ride of a lifetime in 1974. A buddy and I took our 2 1972 Kawasaki 750s out west to see everything we could. Carlsbad Caverns,Grand Canyon,Bryce Canyon,Zion Canyon, White Sands,Petrified Forest,Gila Cliff Dwellings,Painted Desert,Yellowstone,Salt lake flats,Grand Tetons,Rockey Mountain Nat'll Park{slept in a cage somewhere near the middle of the park, didn't realize what the cage was for until later. Bear. Too tired to care when we stopped.} We slept in sleeping bags for most of the trip. Rode alot of miles with alot of smiles. My butt couldn't handle a 72 750s seat for 30 miles now.

The spark plug heat range has no relationship to the electrical energy transferred through the spark plug. The heat range of a spark plug is the range in which the plug works well thermally. The heat rating of each NGK spark plug is indicated by a number; lower numbers indicate a hotter type, higher numbers indicate a colder type. Heat rating and heat flow path of NGK Spark Plugs http://www.ngksparkplugs.com/tech_support/spark_plugs/image/chartheatratingflowpath-2.gif It is hard to say if the plugs you have will do anything abnormal to your bike. But according to this you have hotter plugs than what are recommended. -
Yes but everything as far as add ons can cost immensely. $500.00 for a Honda plug and play CB. Come on! Overpriced and over-hyped. When you get a whole bunch of them together they become a health hazard breathing all that plastic fumes.

bite me:D

Is your linkage installed correctly? You say you couldn't run it through the gears because it was snowing when you picked it up. Maybe the previous owner removed the linkage to begin to fix the problem of a missing pin. But quit to sell the bike. Therefore when installing the linkage he put it back on incorrectly. Causing it to bind linkage wise before shifting into the higher gears. Study the pics in the manual for proper installation.

Years ago I killed every single one of them critters I ever came across. The thought of listening to a fable about a groundhog predicting the weather makes about as much sense as trying to answer the question"why".:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: COME ON SPRING!!!!!!!!!!!! SCREW THE GROUNDHOG!
