That being said. I just tried logging out and it worked as it should. I got a popup asking if I was sure I wanted to log and and when I clicked yes, it logged me out. If some of you aren't able to do that, I guess we need to know what system, browser, etc. you are using. It's really not important though.

It really doesn't matter either way. I am curious though. How do you know it's not logging you out? If you leave your computer on and come back it it shows you still logged in, that is probably because you haven't refreshed the page. Once you refresh it, it will automatically log you back in again.

Why? There is no reason to log out. It will log you out automatically after about, 30 minutes or so

Upper right corner of page. "Settings". Then scroll down to "paid subscriptions" in the left menu.

He may be right but to me, that is not a Venture. If it's a air cooled V Twin, I already have one of those. If it were a water cooled 1700 V4, I would have to take a look.

I think the Motor Trike is a nice kit but unless they have different models, I don't think it is an independent suspension. Carbon One could probably tell you more. I think that his first RSV Trike was a Motor Trike. Pretty sure it is a straight axle.

I understand it and as said, it is all about the money. The title has a place on the back for the sellers name and the buyers name and was then notarized. But it was never taken to the DMV and changed over. So due to the buyers info being filled out on the back, they know it it had already changed hands and that the transfer was never done so the taxes were never paid. No way are they going to skip the taxes that they need to collect from the owner than never paid them.

I like the WV location. I also like my location. It will be put up for a vote though. I am not ruling any of them out.

Worked for me.

I checked the logs and it shows that he got the pm.

It has nothing to do with the aftermarket ignoring us. There are plenty of speakers out there in the correct size. The problem is, the correct size is just not a large enough speaker and a larger one won't fit.

Good luck with it. Nice bike. Still wouldn't trade my Road Glide for it though.

They should. Your last post here showed up under mine. As for the bike, why don't you put it in the classifieds. That's what they are far. I paid good money for that software, people should use it.

Or...if you are talking about your OWN posts/responses, they will NOT show up under new because they aren't new to you.

Depends upon which thread you are talking about. Some do not show up under new posts because people didn't want them to. Ebay ads, links to classifieds, etc.

I hate mail in rebates but will give it a try. Both of the new Waverunners are due for their first oil change. Of COURSE it will be Mobil 1.

You will have to get it from a Yamaha dealer. Boat.net is usually about as cheap as anybody but you can check around. Here is a link to it at boats.net. A little over $300.00 http://www.boats.net/parts/detail/yamaha/Y-4XY-16150-09-00.html You might also try Stadium Yamaha in Irving, Texas. Several members here speak highly of them. They actually show the standard clutch basket for $248.00. The "I" basket should be the same price if they can get it. http://www.stadiumyamaha.com

Not sure how you are coming up with the rear ends going out a lot. In the more than 10 years that this forum has been up and thousands of Venture owners participating, I have only known of a very few people who have had rear ends go out. It has happened but is certainly not a common occurrence. Now as for the whine. Yes, that could be a problem. This is a much more common problem. I wish you had searched here before buying the bike and you would have gotten some good advice. The main advice would have been to take a very good test ride first to make sure that there is not excessive whine that you may not be able to live with. There has been a lot of discussion here about using different oils, oil additives, etc. but to be honest, swapping to the "I" basket is really the only real chance of reducing it and even that may not get rid of it entirely. Some people have gotten rid of it almost completely, some have reduced it to a tolerable level and some have reported that it didn't help that much. My personal opinion is that it will likely make a big difference and at LEAST make it tolerable. The "I" basket is pretty much a permanent fix. If it does indeed solve the problem, you are unlikely to ever have to do it again.

It's a bit surprising that only 53 people have voted in this poll. Is it because you don't care to attend the rally at all or because it doesn't matter what time of the year it is held. If it doesn't matter, then select no. But please vote. At this rate, it is starting to confirm my message questioning whether or not we should even have it.

There aren't many options and most are best done with longer cables. You will see some that have replaced the cables and some who do not. It is possible to re-route cables and make them work and that what some have done. The best way is to replace the cables with some that are 2" longer though.

I had to go to the DMV to register the two Waverunners that I bought a couple of weeks ago. I bought them in South New Haven, MI so I took the Michigan titles to the DMV in Medina to get Ohio titles and get them registered. Now I've been here before and have been generally impressed with the friendliness of the people working here. Not the case this time. I knew when this older lady called me to the counter, just by the tone of her voice, that this was NOT going to be a good experience. I gave her all the paperwork and told her that I needed to get them registered. She spent a long time looking if all over and said, so one of them was a '99...what was the other one. I explained to her that the trade ins were '99 models, as shown buy "Trades" on that line item. I told her that the ones I was registered were new 2015 models. As indicated by THAT line item. She studied it for a while and said....so one is a '99 and the other a '15. I went through it again and she said "well I don't understand any of this". I started to show her again and she made some remark about not needing my help. So she stumbled around for a while and said again, "I just don't understand this at all". I said "well I would be more than happy to help but you have made it very clean that you prefer to stare at it for as long as possible". That didn't make her very happy. She then said "ok, I know what to do" and she proceeded to go to her desk and start working on it. She looked up and said "it is going to be $176.00 per jet ski". I told her that I didn't think that was correct and that I had already paid most of the taxes when I bought them. Michigan collected 6% tax and all I had to pay was the 3/4% more that Ohio charges. She looked again and said "yes, that is what I'm doing". I told her that it wasn't correct and sounded about $40.00 high. She told me that she worked here every day and likely knew more about it than I did and she proceeded. A full 45 minutes later, she summoned me back to the counter and told me it would be something like $186.00 per ski. I asked her to show me the breakdown on that number. Well what she had done was charged me for the entire purchase price and in Ohio, for new vehicles, you deduct the value of the trades from the taxable amount of the new vehicles. I pointed out to her that she had done it wrong and explained the problem. She looked at me like I was completely stupid and called over another employee. That person flat told her that I was correct and that she had done it wrong. She headed back to her desk mumbling about how she would now have to redo everything. About 30 minutes later, she summoned me to the counter again and finally had it right. She was complaining about having to do it over and I had enough of it. I was probably a bit louder than I needed to be when I told her that if she would just shut up for 30 seconds and listen that she would have gotten it right the first time. That finally soaked in and she apologized, probably because everybody else was staring at her. So, then I have to take that paperwork next door to actually registered the skis and trailer. I stood in line there for about 30 minutes and finally got to the counter. This young lady was actually very nice and it was a pleasant enough experience. So more than two hours after getting there, I headed home with my new titles and registrations for the skis and plate for the trailer. Stopped a Walmart and picked up a couple packages of boat numbers and headed home. Got home and was looking at the serial numbers on the Jet Skis to make sure I put the ride numbers on the right ski and guess what, they made a typo on the serial number. They had it correct on the title but made a typo when they did the registration. Back in the car and back to Medina to get it corrected. They close at 5:00 and I walked in at 3 minutes until 5:00. There were about 8 people ahead of me and I knew I was going to be there for at least another hour. I saw the nice young lady who had made the mistake come out of a back office and wave at her with the papers. She asked what I was doing back and I told her that she had made a mistake on the registration so she motioned for me to come on up. She was very apologetic and took care of it quickly but that was another one hour round trip. So....I finally got it all done but NOT the way that I wanted to spend an afternoon. I'm sure that NONE of you have ever had any issues at your very efficient and friendly tax supported DMV offices. Probably just one of those days.

Yea...and you had to go and change it's diet. See what it did to you?

My cars - Mobil 1 My Road Glide - Mobil 1 My boat - Mobil 1 My Waverunners - Mobil 1 Ventures that I have owned - Mobil 1 My lawnmower - Mobil 1 I use the motorcycle specific Mobil 1 in bikes.

I think that this has been some useful discussion so far. Something else that I suppose should be mentioned is that the date can be good or bad depending upon the location of the rally. I know that when I lived in Texas, September was often one of the hottest months of the year.

Kim, Just enjoy that Jet Ski. I mean, your on the water, what could possibly go wrong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7J0IN7iFvw
