    Adjusting the shocks 'on the fly', could be downright dangerous, not only if you do it yourself, but things might also adjust without you having to do much with it, seeing as it's always live. To use the pump for other things, is also not very practical. It's made for a purpose and that means it runs short times, not long times like it would in pumping up a tire, it would over heat and wearout prematurely. The program in the computer will also prevent you from pumping up a tire, it would time out continually, so you would have to override that as well.

    There's no better place to be than in the arms of the One Who Cares. Ask Him for comfort, and He'll know just how to do that.

    Somebody better go with them two, just to make sure they get there, I'm thinking they might leave on the wrong day, show up too late and then leave before the dinner starts,, then again they may end up in Fort Collins, or maybe Kitchener. Any volunteers??

    One of our very own VentureRiders made the front page. I would rather have carried on without all this BS, but the regulations being as they are, and the enforcement of them, has forced me into doing things that I would rather leave to others. But here I am, front page, and the stuggle goes on. Please take some time to post your comments. http://www.brantfordexpositor.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=1668423&auth=MICHAEL-ALLAN%20MARION

    If the battery is running low, so not a full charge, and the cables connections have issues, then if the cables are making contact the battery will draw some amperage but should the terminals loose contact the battery will not draw and therefore the available amperage will all go to the lights. The meter is a volt meter and so will show this, it has nothing to do with amperage, so a fluctuation could be evident. It's a far shoot, but then when it comes to electrical you need to have an open mind and think outside the box. There is no guarantee that the meter is a good working one, so can only be taken as an indicator anyways.

    As some of you know, we, the local butchers in Ontario are having a struggle with our government. I was interviewed with Alison Crawford from the CBC and that was aired on Tuesday last week. http://podcast.cbc.ca/w6_20090714_2100.mp3 She also did a pod cast which you can read and comment on. I would sure love to see as many comments as possible, doesn't matter that you live in Austrailia or the north pole, I don't think that they check that close, but numbers count. I should have posted this sooner, but it just accured to me now, so better late than never I suppose. We have one day left to send the numbers over board. Thanks for your help,, I hope they have room for 6000 comments. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2009/07/15/f-meat-inspection.html

    Heyyyy,,,,I resemble that remark......but I agree. Also have an interview done on the web with Alison Crawford. We could use some comments there, so put in your two cents worth even though it might not say much. In this case numbers count. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2009/07/15/f-meat-inspection.html

    Yep, What he said, and if that don't fix it, post again. While you're at it, clean your battery terminals as well and make sure they are tight.

    The noise filter is in the connector going to the radio coming from the bike, it may not be there, so you can pick one up at your local electronics store. I'd be more worried about the attenna, seeing as it's powered, try unlpugging and see what happens, you'll loose any reception you do have, but does it change the whine. if it does, it'd replace it with a $20.00 from the same store. Good Luck keep us posted Carl

    First off, do you have a CB installed? Second, do you have any headsets installed. Third, the radio needs to have a good ground. It grounds through the mounts where it mounts to\through the faring. If you're not sure you can always add another ground wire from the amp\radio case. The attenna must also be well grounded. Take it off and check to make sure that it's grounded and the contact surfaces are clean. Now the attenna wire in the middle should only be going to the attenna, there can be no way it can go to ground. Check your attenna lead to make sure it's not broke or wore through somewhere. Try to route it so that it doesn't follow the frame for more that 6 inches. You might not have the noise filter in the power lines, so you might try that as well.

    Can't you at least wait until I get there, still trying to figure out the directions,,,,not so easy you know,,,,,how old do you have to be to be suckered into this anyways????

    Now I'm glad I didn't see this thread until today,, that way I can set you all straight as to what you really should do and as to how it really can be done. Best thing to do first is to throw away the owners\repair manual. Mostly the language is wrong, pictures never show exactly what you are looking for and when you need info, they went and put it on the wrong pages,, never mind that you remember having seen it before, it ain't there now,,,, so they're playing with you when you are in the most direst need of good solid well explained information. Best thing after that is to chuck all your metric tools down the road, you'll notice all your neighbours fighting over them and you'll have a hoot. Reason to through them out is that they usually don't work well anyways, better to use imperial tools, they're made in America, RIGHT?, that way you have an excuse to through out more tools and enjoy watching the neighbours again. That leaves you then with a couple of very important handwrenchs, the one being a hammer, and the other a vicegrip. Now you're ready to change your oil......do I need to say more??????
  22. Marcarl
    I agree, so that means either no Vision, or no beard,,,,now that's a thought.

    My heartfelt feeling for your father-in-law, and for Erica as well, there may be some tough bends in the road ahead. Let us know when these times arrive and we'll pray for strength and patience for you all. As for your daughter, the only reason she wants to wait 2 years, is so that daddy can collect enough funds for the wedding. Be proud of her, she's got you in her mind all the way, she doesn't want you going into debt for this thing, so start collecting as much as possible so that you won't have to borrow,,,,,,let's see if I can help,,,sell the Wing, sell the car,,rent out the house,,,,no more vactions,,,,oh?? I'm not helping out?????? well,, keep us posted as to how you're doing.

    If there is a whole in the back of the mic, try blocking it with some soft firm material, such as cork. If there is a lot of room on the front of the mic, try blocking some of that off.
