    I use AVG and have never had an issue with their free software. I would not use Norton as Ive found it to be a real hog on resources and slows your machine down. Here is a link to snapfiles.com's free ware section, just look for an antivirus program ( i like AvG and Avast) and read and pick, snapfiles rates them by popularity by users and for ease of use. http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/ bRIAN

    Ray, i just used the clamp that came with the Drift on the crash bar and it works fine down there, and I like the perspective. But on the highway i like to put it up on the handlebars where its protected from rocks and bugs. Swifty, I apologize for the exhaust leak, but I also think I may have something going on in the transmission or clutch as I get a rattle just as the throttle is lightly on but it disappears under more throttle or if I back off. It kinda has me worried, I hope its minor, but I really gont know how to find out what the noise is for sure.. Brian

    I thought I should take a ride thru Wascana Park in Regina SK. today before the first frost of the season that is forecast tonight takes most of the leaves. It was a good time to try out Drift camera and take a short ride thru what is touted as the largest urban park in North America. Then I went into downtown a bit until the 2gb card filled up. Ive got the Drift set at 1080 res but I am sure that You Tube really drops resolution. I am really happy with the camera and mount it in a couple of places on the bike, but still like the low mount point on the front crash bar the best for around town. Brian

    Ive used Gorilla glue on a small project bonding wood to a steel edge and the staff at Lowes recommeneded the Gorilla glue. It goes on like regular white glue, but over a bit of time it expands like the expandle spray foam from a can. I liked it real well, and after it set ip for a day i just trimmed off the extra with a knife and scraper. http://au.gorillaglue.com/eng/glues/glue-list/1/8/gorilla-glue.html Brian

    But if Yamaha had brought out a new style Venture ill bet your Ventures would have plummetted. So some guys might be careful what you wish for when wanting a new design. Brian

    I used it once and it gave me some info on where the car was from and whether it had been in a serious acccident or not, so in that repect I found it somewhat helpful. It doesnt give a bunch of info though. Can I ask what about it makes it useless to you , MIke? Brian

    My mother is a Ritchie and her parents came from Nebraska, but she also had quite a few relatives in the Yakima, Washington area. She is out of town right now, so I cant ask her if she knows anything about your person. She will be back Monday and let you know. Brian

    check kickstand switch and see if it disappears from your computer display when it is up. you may have a problem with the switch. ALso have the bike in neutral with clutch pulled in. Maybe take the kickstand switch off and clean it up and check operation. I rememebr seeing this posted before and several troulbe shooting tips were in there, but I cant find the thread right now.

    Dan, If i were you and didnt have a use for your old machine, i would get the harddrive out of it (if it is good) and go to your local computer store and buy a usb case for it. THen plug it into your computer and see if you can retreive any of your old file, if they arent there format the drive and then youll be able to backup your pics and documents just by dragging the stuff to it and dropping. Just a thought if you didnt have any use for the old machine. its a cheap way to get a back up solution. Brian

    so what dija get? Something that runs real fast in Blue?

    It was an option on the earlier models. My 85 doesnt have all that and I like it that way, it doesnt get in my way when changing oil. Brian
  14. friesman
    HMM i am wondering how the dash would show it. As I understand the dash on my 85, the oil indicator is level only, thats why it comes on when I accelerate hard. Your heat indicator should have start to go way up if you were running with no oil pressure for any time, but I cant think of an oil pressure indicator. (But Now I gotta go check a manual...to check if what I am thinkig is right.) Brian

    These guys say they have a big selection of parts for Dynamark. (i guess quite a few parts cross with Murray as they made Dynamark) http://www.lawnmowerpros.com/dynamark/dynamark-snowthrower-parts.asp

    Now was that bang at the end the tire blowing, ...or something more serious? I didnt see the back of the bike drop, like I would expect if the tire blew out. Brian

    the bigger the number the stiffer your ride will be. I understand it to be a mechanical device. The owners manual says to only move it one notch at a time, before taking it for a ride...dont knoe what the reason is for that statement.

    My 85 has a noise when on the side stand too. MIne is down low on the engine and was wold from guys here that its the clutch bearing wearing a bit. Mine goes away when I pull in the clutch or if I stand the bike up. It seems to be a common thing if that is what you noise is. \ Brian
