    I know it's tough to camp on Freebird's lawn, all those bumps and holes makes for a very bad sleep, but there is a section in the middle of his front yard that is nice and smooth, but you'll have to put in for it early, I hear there is a move afoot to reserve a spot.

    My wife wouldn't even consider plunking her behind on my CB 750, five years ago, but then I bought the 85 Venture. Two weeks later she was ready with helmet and coat to go for a ride. She still doesn't care for leaning over but she likes the curves and hills, but "is there any reason that we need to lean so much in a curve"? Getting her a communicator headset helped an awful lot, I now tell her when I plan to pass and do some funny things, she do not like surprises.

    Is it just me?

    Marcarl replied to T.J.'s topic in Watering Hole

    Nobody replys to me so I don't have that problem, makes life kind of simpler don't you think? and then I'm always right cause nobody argues with me.

    We can only see things we are looking for and often only in the place where we think it might be, but if we don't think it could be there, we most likely won't see it, even if we stump our toes on it. Years ago, we used to go camping with our whole family, my brothers and sisters and all their kids. Uncle Carl always joined in the hide and seek game after dusk and it was a prize to find him. A number of times, I would hide, and then be found sitting at the campfire with the grown ups. My nieces and nephews would pass by, but never see me,,,, after all I was hiding somewhere wasn't I????

    See attached picture, each carb has this screw, hold a container under the rubber line coming from that carb and then back out the screw. You may only need to back it out a little or a lot, for the crud in the bowl may plug the outlet. You can leave the pump running to try to flush each bowl as you go. If it stops running out the tube but there is still fuel in the bowl, try turning the screw back in and then out again.

    Sounds like you may have plugged the fuel line and \or flooded the carbs with dirt. Does the fuel pump click when you turn on the ignition? Drain the carbs to find out, in the process you will be cleaning thew bottom of the carb bowls somewhat and that won't hurt either. If the fuel pump clicks and then stops, you are getting fuel to the pump, now drain the carbs again to see if the pump got fuel to the carbs.

    Take two asperins with a glass of water, go to bed, and when you wake up in the morning, it'll be a new day.

    Best song that;s been written for a while, I loved it seeing as I'm a part of America, maybe not the the USA directly, but hey,,,, really,,,,, Canadians are just as much Americans as those who live south of the border.

    I've never had a divorce and have very little experince one way or the other, but it seems to me that bashing goes on, and that seems to be a favourite thing to do, why? it makes the person that's bashing think they feel better, but really does nothing for them except make them feel worse and more hateful, along with whoever they make be making conversation with. I would attempt to communicate with your ex and tell her that bashing you will only serve to break down character, her's, your's and your son's, and it will not give anyone, especially her child, a good foundation to grow on.

    I love that response, that was an excellant way to put it, full of truth, from start to finish. Let's not steal this thread, it's a way too awesome to ruin it.

    It never caught on because of the open sprockets in the back, can you imagine the pain they would cause today, someone would be sure to get caught in one of those, somehow... Actually, quite a neat invention.

    What are you trying to do?????drum up more folks to come to your Maitainence day?????guess you'll have every Tom Dick and Harry over there giving you the gears this year,,,,,you could have posted that a little different,,,,,,it's not like you to go around with heart stoppers like that.
  18. Marcarl
    Them's Harleys and they just finished fixin' everything that went wrong last season, so,,,,,, before anything else happens they have to get a ride in, otherwise it's back to fixin' some more,,,now you feel better????

    First off check your tire pressures, I see you done that, but too high or too low for the weight carried can also be an issue. It then comes down to loading and having some weight in the trailer, no weight is not a good thing, so maybe you need to add some weight. Normally speaking you like to have 20 lb on the hitch, but if that leaves the rest of the trailer empty, so to speak, it will fish tail, so then you add some roadside gravel to help out if necessary.

    I'm glad I only have to deal with the pictures, like you said, you didn't buy it for the looks, but if you want speed monsters oggeling your ride, you made a good start, it looks like it might move out,,,way out....

    Get an '85, then you'll have the first spot at the table and be working on dessert before the rest show up, 'course you shoiuld always start with dessert, just in case you don't have room for it later.

    So guess who the media is catering to,,, those who moan and groan,,, now lets go easy here,,, it's rather cute,,, don't look at who wrote the post,,,,,,just read the posts that are typed before this one,,,,,,nuf said,,,,,,,,, now look at the bright side of things,,, and I'm not belittling anyone here,,,,I fell sorry for those who have no work,,,,it's like you're not needed anymore, and everyone needs to be needed,,,,,,but haven't we been wanting time off? time for ourselves? ya I know, now there's no income, no future, but you do have time to figure out what to do next, to try something on your own, fiddle with something, help someone else,,,, remember Howard Hughes? he started out with 50 cents in his pocket and became very rich, stinking rich to be sure,,, he didn't worry too much about tomorrow, but did what he could today,, kept busy, even if it was helping a neighbour.. Just some thoughts on a screen. Carl
