    Yeah Steve, I wondered the same thing. RandyA

    I remember when I was a kid in the late 50's, early 60's and it was a different world. Kids had a blast and I mean that. Real Cherry Bombs and M80's were legal then and sometimes mailboxes were left as only a smoking stump. l also remember there were some serious injuries that some of those kids are still living with. We live in the city limits and did not have one single kid, so now I have all this candy I have to get rid of. RandyA

    So......, now he starts posting, now that it is getting springtime in his area!!! He will be ragging us while we are up to our a***** in snow!! (That's "ankles", as it don't snow much anymore here in east Tennessee). Hey mate, glad to have you aboard and we look forward to some good stories to keep us entertained and help us make it through our winter. RandyA

    Another thing that works good is a vise, if it is not too small. RandyA

    I think it looks pretty good and what also helped was taking all the badges off. It makes it look a lot cleaner. RandyA

    Actually, it's a little scary in how true this is, isn't it? RandyA

    You should have stated "Do you know what it is like to wrestle arould 800 pounds"? RandyA

    We are already seeing a lot more traffic in Johnson City, Tn, which is in the path of I-26. The restaurants and hotel business has picked up also. If you come thru Johnson City, be on the look out for unmarked Mustangs and a light brown Hemi Charger. It has been all over the news that they ARE going to enforce the 55 speed limit thru the city. The local geologists predicted we would see a lot rockslides in that area with the extra rain we have had this summer and fall. And, they are now saying it may take more than three months to get it open. RandyA

    It is my understanding that one of the things the TN law enforcement is now writing tickets for on 129 is going over the yellow line, whether you are in 18 wheeler , car or motorcycle. And, this is enforced on motorcycles, so be carefull cutting the curves some. RandyA

    I was thinking the same thing. I do have two hats that fit. My dress uniform hat and a winter hat with the dog ears that go all the way under my chin. I guess I could take the stripes off my dress blues and sew them on a comfortable sweat shirt....not. Thanks for a great post NCReb. RandyA

    Great to open a post with really great news. Be careful coming home and hope we can get together at Asheville next summer. Thanks, RandyA

    Stereo video sounds a lot like double vision to me. RandyA Glad you got it working again!!

    It adds about two hours to take this detour. But then it would probably add more than that going 129, but on the map it looks a lot shorter as they don't see the curves. We are already seeing a big jump in traffic in Johnson City, Tn, where I-26 goes thru. RandyA

    Isn't it a bummer when you forward a neat e-mail and the pictures don't make it. RandyA

    I suspect the 10,000 rpm rev limiter is actually valve float. RandyA

    It has been pouring rain all day and still is right now. One thing for sure, we are definately out of the drought mode. Tomorrow is to be about 70º and Thursday about 72º. If the rain has quit by in the morning, I will take the bike to work, or I might come home at lunch and pick it up. RandyA

    Have you had the system tested? If you have an Auto Zone close by, they will check it for free. There is also usually a test procedure where you can check your codes by counting the blinks on the check engine light, but you may need to get a repair book to do it. Does your check engine light come on when you turn the ignition on before starting the car to make sure the bulb is even working? RandyA

    No doubt about it Dave, that is a beautiful bike. RandyA
  19. Venturous Randy
    I think you will like the Dunlop Elite III's for your bike a lot better. RandyA
  20. Venturous Randy
    Yeah, I know what you mean. RandyA
  21. Venturous Randy
    I put a set of these on my 1st gen and they seem to be doing fine. RandyA
  22. Venturous Randy
    Sounds like you are running on TWO cylinders to me. RandyA
  23. Venturous Randy
    Only if you have a dirty mind! RandyA

    The local Golden Corral Restaurant does the free vet meal here also. It always draws a big crowd. I appreciate them and ate breakfast there this morning. RandyA

    Ditto!!! I agree 110% with everything you said. The small business man it what makes up much of our working force. As far as getting a loan, what it comes down to is; "If you don't need the money, they will give you a loan" RandyA
