  1. I made it home just fine as well, about 6 or so, forgot to look and remember. I didn't post any sooner because I wanted to leave room for the rest of you fine folks to do so first. We only got rained on in the Peninsula, and that was only so that we would be nice and clean when we got home,,,, not my fault that Bob hogged the shower and used up all the hot water. Met some wonderful people, I would mention the new ones I met, but either they forgot to tell me who they were or I forgot what they said, either way, it was not for lack of asking on my part eh!? Now that I think of it, I even re-met some and can't remember who they were\are, but they were nice!!! No Robin it wasn't you, and Yamah-Momma it wasn't you either! Time for MORE HUGS!! Thanks Eileen and Don, the grass was cut just right!!
  2. Just so that everybody is perfectly clear on this subject, Adam was not an American!! Now it would be nice if you two fellas would kiss and make up, I have no idea idea what it is you two are arguing over, it all makes no difference on a Spyder for when you twist the throttle, it's gone!! and that's what counts. But I really don't like the tone of voice that seems to bleeding into this conversation. So can you two get it together and stay that way? Please?
  3. About 7:30
  4. Then I suggest to take the motor out to do it, you can fix the 2nd gear problem while your there anyways.
  5. I don't know what you call your bike Ben, but whatever you call it, she\he had an idea that you hadn't spent enough time with some of your friends, so it fell over in grief, the result was just what it was looking for. See you tomorrow, make room for a Dodge!
  6. I have a slightly used MicMute set, used on my Spyder. It worked as it said it would, so it's not broke, but we have decided to go a different route that I will post once I get it working peachiekeen. In the meantime, the MicMutes will be in may saddlebag on the way to MD, so if your interested in it let me know.
  7. This is scary,, wow!!! I'm going to quit buying gas!!
  8. Hey?? whaasup?? she's the one that brought it up!!! and I figured if she brought it up I could play with it!!!
  9. Best get us together on the same page I think. Who's going and wants to join up. Meet at Casablanca ready to leave at 9am, cross at Niagara, Algoma about 10am and Erie at noon. That should get us there between 4 and 5.
  10. Don I hope the tractor has some rear weights, she's talking THREE AND A HALF here, that's not a light weight!!!!
  11. In that case maybe I need to withdraw my offer seeing as I don't want to be continuing on down this road,,,,, nah, can't do that, so the buck stops with you Tooch. Evan,, you thinking of parting out the 86?, if so, the radio controller would work for Ben.
  12. Let me know when you can get the seals, then I'll plan it.
  13. Yep, I was afraid that might happen, so now I feel a little bit better that my feelings were correct,,, doesn't often happen, that! my feelings are correct! But now I'm feeling bad that your MC dropped, you know it's just the first sign eh? Hopefully you can get things corrected before the weekend. Need some assistance? In the end..... WHAT A BUMMER!!
  14. This is something we must all deal with sooner or later, but that doesn't make it any easier, always tough. Blessings to the family and friends as they search their way through this part of living, may they be able to find the Peace that passes all understanding.
  15. All I had to rim was the rim closest to center, the rim that keeps or is supposed to keep your hand from going up the grip too far.
  16. https://www.kuryakyn.com/products/33/iso-grips Had to trim the oem grips at the handlebar, other than that, nice fit, a little longer than oem.
  17. When was the last time you put new plugs in it.
  18. You might have him thinking Tooch, there's room between the legs for more stuff than on the Venture!!
  19. When I opened my email this morning there was a note from VentureRiders saying that I had been mentioned!! I thought: oooo wowsie I'm important, somebody mentioned me!!! they know who I am!!! finally somebody has some sense!!! maybe I'll get rich??? are they offering me a REAL job????. You never know what might happen to you thoughts as you get older:think: !! So I hurried to the website to find all about myself and my time of fame,,,, Ya right:confused24: t'was only old Cowpuc trying to work out another story about Saddlebum and then getting me involved as an extra added feature, a fictitious story at best,,, hump!!! Ben and I sitting around a lake fishing!! Glad it didn't get any worse or folks might have been told we were downtown looking at beavers! PS Puc!!! Someday we will both go on to a much better place, but I hope I go before you,,,,, 'cause I would sure miss you here if it were the other way.
  20. I would suggest that the black you see is from overfilling the crankcase with oil. Only fill the crankcase to half ways up the site glass or it will suck the oil into the breather and create lots of problems. As far as the carbs are concerned? The hardest part of taking them to the cleaners is getting the cables off and on, the rest is time consuming but not real hard. I would take them off and clean them. I would suggest strongly to get new gaskets and rubber plugs. Somethings to be aware of as you do this. Loosen the cables as much as possible at the top end. Loosen all 4 clamps on the intake boots and then use a large screwdriver to pry them off. Watch close the routing off the return cable so that you know where it goes during re-assmble, it will fool you. Pay close attention to the order of parts on the fuel enrichment shaft. When you rejoin the carbs be sure you do this on a perfectly flat surface. Need more help, just ask.
  21. So now I'll try. Downloaded, saved it, rotated to upright position and inserted. All done and did it right. Windows 10, windows file and picture viewer.
  22. Lookin real good!! Need somebody to ride it now, or can you handle that alright?
