    Now what took you so long??????????? We're here to help and long posts give lots of info, soooo, you either tell us off the bat, or we'll have to type a lot to ask the questions you could have answered in the first place. Tell us about your cync tool, and how it works and we might be able to help you there. Don't depend on the looks of your plugs, if you have issues the first thing to do is to replace them, they can act bad without showing it. Half a can of Seafoam is not enough in a full tank when she's been sitting for a while, rather use a full can in half a tank of gas and let it sit for a while in between runs so that it has time to soak. Valves should not be an issue, so work around that, just leave them be until she gets older. The colour is awesome, and for me, I would spend a lot more on her before I'd even think of starting to budget. The bike is a great machine and well worth loving a little bit, no matter what the 2nd genners like to say. When you get new needles get all four at the same time, or you might still have an odd one. $17.88 ea at Flatout Motorcycle http://www.flatoutmotorcycles.com/fiche_section_detail.asp

    If you have mud and grime on the scoot, you need to wash it first, then comes the fun part, go for a nice ride. When you return from that part, park it in the garage, close the door, bring out the LemonPledge, spray the whole scoot, starting with the wind shield. When you are finished spraying get a clean soft cloth, gently clean the wind shield and then follow the same route as you did with the spray. I'd say that the wash should take about 10 minutes, the ride will last until just before sundown and the polish should be no longer than you can keep a beer cold while making use of the end of the bottle. If you do this first thing in the morning you can substitute the beer with coffee and the ride can be shortened to maybe an hour or so, depends on how lost you can get, and the Lemon Pledge can be substituted with Orange Pledge. If you take on this task in the evening, the advantage can be a longer ride with a sparkling scoot first thing in the morning, if you wait until the mornig to get it done, you have the rest of the day to show off the king of the road.

    Pledge on everything, even the exhaust. It's good, fast and easy. Half hour I'm all cleaned, polished, and the vinyl is done as well.

    That would have been a good reason to find a nice warm room somewhere and stay put, but I would have probably come all the way home as well. Glad you made it safe and sound.

    As far as the bleeding is concerned, you probably had air in the MC, and then it won't work, you need to prime the MC for any bleeding to take place, that's what you inadvertantly did when you removed the bleeder. Way to go.

    Wow, that's a vote for little ol'me:happy65::happy65::happy65: Now I'm world renown. Question, do I double up production to meat a new demand or do I double up the heat to meat the buyers satisfaction. Maybe I should sell my oil stocks and buy in the softdrink and icecream market. Thanks for the vote John.

    Oh yes there is, they are just a little more north than you. Just let them know and they will probably be able to find a whole yard full in no time.

    Since when did you become serious? I wouldn't think twice about replacing the audio, the only thing as mentioned, your speakers will not work with the J&M setup, not enough power in the amp, but then you could leave the old amp in place and use it for the speakers. Nice thing about the J&M is that if you should get another scoot, you can easily take it with you or even sell it separate, depending on what the other scoot already has.

    I'm gonna get my wife to try this, at least one of us will be good at it.

    He just wanted some light to work with, you provided that, but then took off before he was done and ticked him off.

    Mine are now keeping the heat in on a shelve, want them to add to your collection? or maybe you'd like two sets so you can practise putting them in and out. Less weight means the scoot goes faster and better gas mileage, haven't noticed either one really. Moral of this story: leave them off, they don't make no never mind.

    Thanks, I always wondered what they did all day long, just going from truck stop to truck stop seemed kind of boring,, but now I'm enlightened. Thanks for posting, now we need one for the farmer's
  19. Marcarl
    Think that would work on the scoot as well?????????
  20. Marcarl
    Darn, does that mean I missed it again???????You'd think after all these years that I've been around I'd start to remember when super bowl is being played. I remember Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving and sometimes my birthday, why oh why do I not remember super bowl????:think::think:

    Looks to me like you did some growing up. Nice Pictures.

    Chances are that if you're picking up road noise with your mics, one of two things are happening or both. One is that the volume is turned up to high on the headsets and two is that the mic is facing the wrong way. Often times road noise will be reflected from your helmet, the face shield, the windscreen, into your mic(s), not necessarily from the road directly. Try to have the mic as close to your mouth as possible, and facing directly into you mouth. Whatever noise there is, the mic ain't particular, it'll pick it up and send it through.

    Probably the fan is not running to move the air around, notice it's heavier around the Squid than around Her Sweetness. Boy these new cameras are something, aren't they? Next thing you know they'll be giving you a history as to WHAT you've been doing all day. lol:no-no-no:

    I could always use another trailer, maybe one for the week and a special one for Sundays. You do need a scoot to pull this thing, DON'T YOU?

    I've known this guy for 35 years, like a brother to me, yep you're wrong but he won't mind your hugs either. If you had come on our Labour Day ride last year you would know him now as well. That picture was taken on the top of a hill, we could see about 10-15 miles from there. Even the second gens made it up there, I was sooooooo surprised. Poor Mother, this thread was all about him and now it's gone the other way, Where Are You MOM??
