  1. Fact is, they can smell anything WHITE a long ways away.
  2. Guys like Big Tom don't need no APs,,, they can smell a DQ cross country.
  3. My brain isn't froze, it's cooked from all the heat this summer,,,, actually it's just starting to get back to normal,,, work starts tomorrow, we'll be ready!!!!
  4. Can I ride it?????? Can I ride it????? oh PLEASE, PLEASE,,,, mommy said I could!!!!!! Blessing to you my friend, hope you can enjoy it to it's fullest.

  6. He wouldn't have passed the road test at our Riders course, I noticed he touched the ground a couple of times,,, guess he should practise some more. Fun to watch though, nice job.
  7. Don't you all worry none,,, we have it under control,,,,, busy getting 7 units ready to move all that stuff into the proper areas,,,,, thank goodness the government hasn't got involved in this issue yet or I might be out of work. Sure is nice when you can see your work falling out of the sky.
  8. When the Spirit talks to you, He usually doesn't shout,,, He tends to whisper so that you can make up your own mind. That's called free will.

  10. I just ordered a bunch of stuff from Yamaha Sports Plaza. Total came to $182.01 plus $28.60 shipping, total $210.61. So I redid the exact order at Stadium: Order was cheaper, $179.45 but the shipping was a bit more, $100.85 for a total of $280.30. I'm glad I found Sports Plaza first.
  11. I can see that he: First looked at the camera,,,, mistake Second he looked at the car,,,,, ok, but,,,, Third, he kept looking at the car,,,,, baaad mistake. I might have it all wrong, hard to figure once it's all over, but had he glanced at the car, realized his predicament and then right away looked to where he wanted to go, he might just have made it. I was doing the same corner as he was once, all right it wasn't as sharp, but it laid out the wrong way and I was not watching where I was to be going, I was adjusting my intercom instead. When I looked up I was on the wrong side of the line with a cage coming at me. All that came to me was: if you want to go right,,,,, look right and push right. Well I did just that,,, hard,,,, and the boys and girls following me breathed a sigh of relief, the bike just popped over the line and the cage and I missed. Maybe it was an Angel, they do help out, I know that,,,, it sure worked for me.
  12. Will ask for comfort and the will to carry on.
  13. My arms aren't that long,,, but I suppose I could always rent a pillow,,,,nah, don't think so.
  14. MarCarl's is still showing 2012, s/b 2013. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=328&day=2013-5-25&c=1
  15. Another little tip,,, don't take it down some road you know nothing about, you might end up backing it out, and if you do have a hauler tied behind, you'll have that to deal with as well. Best stick to well traveled roads that don't peter out to nothing. These puppies don't make a three point turn on a one lane track.
  16. I had chilli for supper last night, but left the last in the bottom of the pot,,,, hey you just never know.

    Al's Ride

    Nicely done,, I enjoyed watching that.
  18. Sent to me by Run-n-bare Big Biker Chili A duded-up city rider walks into a seedy tavern in Sturgis , SD. He sits at the bar and notices a grizzled old biker with his arms folded, staring blankly at a full bowl of chili. After fifteen minutes of just sitting there staring at it, the newby rider bravely asks the old biker, 'If you ain't gonna eat that, mind if I do?' The old veteran of a thousand rides slowly turns his head toward the young pup and says, 'Nah, you go ahead.' Eagerly, the guy wearing the shiny new leather fashions reaches over and slides the bowl into his place and starts spooning it in with delight. He gets nearly down to the bottom of the bowl and notices a dead mouse in the chili. The sight was very shocking and he immediately barfed up the chili back into the bowl. The old biker quietly says, 'Yep, that's ‘bout as far as I got, too.
  19. Only if it has patches:happy65:
  20. No way Thomas,,,, having nice weather in the middle of the week suits just fine,, otherwise it would get in the way of nap time!
  21. So where did you find that??? At Walmart? Does it have a trap door at the back for a scoot and shop? Which door is the beer in? How many beds? Does it have enough room for Becky to hide?,,,from you of course,,,,Are you allowed to cook inside? How fast does it go,,can a 2nd gen keep up??? Does it come with a Wing?
  22. Not a real problem here,,, hey that is my present wife's wedding anniversary, it was her first marriage and I hadn't been hitched before, so we had to celebrate. It was year 38 to be exact.
  23. Make sure that the rings are put in the way, you can tell by the grooves. Then press them together and they should stay put. Make sure that they slide into the carbs nice and easy, if they bind, then they most likely are split and need to be replaced, it should be a perfect fit. If they still come apart, then you can use a bit of Seal All, found at Home Hardware, or CTC. Gas doesn't bother Seal ALL and it takes only about 30 sec to set up. While you have it apart, it's a good time to blow all the ports out with a carb cleaner,,, CRC works good, get the ports from the top while you are at it was well. Then when you have it all back together let the gas tank run down and add a can of carb cleaner to the tank. Use the spray stuff, it works better. Once you have the cleaner in the tank, let it run for 30 minutes or so at idle, running the choke on once in a while, then take it out for a ride and run the rpm up to 6000 for a few minutes, you can do that while keeping it in 2nd, you don't have to go 160kph. After that refill the tank, and tell me it don't run right.
  24. Yep, let us know on the diaphragms, and if the sliders move. If they are working then there are more options without taking those carbs apart, but if it needs doing, we'll get 'er done.
  25. The pads will do that. It's them being square cut and then vibrating. To solve that issue one needs to file a slight angle on the leading edge of the pad.
