  1. LOL...probably not far from the truth.
  2. Not sure. I never noticed that until I looked at the picture later. Not sure if it is rust or mud. Sure is new to be rusting out already.
  3. Had to go to the store this morning and saw this on the way home. I was behind it until it pulled over into that turning lane. The winder actually turned while the car was moving. May have just been the wind turning it because it seemed to be totally random. I know it is fake but it got me thinking, WHY NOT?
  4. It looks very cool. It does NOT look very aerodynamic.
  5. Good to see you again Cindy. We've missed you around here.
  6. I took advantage of that same offer for my 665. I think it was a good deal.
  7. Almost. I plan to draw a winner this weekend. Saturday or Sunday. Still time to get in folks.
  8. I think our feathered friend is pulling our leg. Everybody has heard of Bob Seger. I KNOW you've heard his songs. Heck...ever seen a Chevy Truck commercial "Like a Rock".
  9. This will work. http://www.adobe.com/products/reader.html
  10. We may not be right...but we are NEVER wrong.
  11. Absolutely one of my favorites. Would have love to have been there.
  12. I've got my wife's Garmin NUVI and it says that I'm right here.
  13. LOL...I'm not lost. I know exactly where I am. Don't know why you couldn't reply to the PM...never seen that happen before.
  14. They have a different one for the 7 pin. This one does require some wiring but it is for the 5 pin setup. Here is what they say: Once installed, the included female headset pig-tail jack with dust-cover, will accept either this specific J&M CB hand mike, OR the standard 5-pin lower cord connection from a J&M, Honda or other brand compatible helmet headset.
  15. J&M makes one that should work. Sierra sells it and it's not cheap, about $100.00. They are great to deal with but you should give them a call and ask them if it will work on the Venture. http://www.sierra-mc.com/proddetail.asp?prod=JM-CBHM-GL1815
  16. Fast service too. I boxed my 665 up and mailed it to Garmin on Friday. I got an email from them yesterday telling me that they had received it and that I should get the replacement in 10 to 14 days. Now one day later and I got another email telling me that the replacement has shipped.
  17. A custom seat may be the only option. I have a Corbin on mine and it sits you back further. Some love the Corbin and others hate it though. They are a hard seat and take several thousand miles to get broken in.
  18. Trailer tags are required in Ohio and I do have them. They will stop you here. Now I understand that if you are from a state that does not require them, you are ok when traveling through other states but if they stop you and see that you are from a state that requires tags, they will cite you.
  19. Well, most of the Harley pumps that I have seen are actually made by progressive but I don't know exactly what you have. Perhaps it is just worn out.
  20. You say you've had them rebuilt but what did that include? Did you actually replace the springs? If not, they almost certainly need replacing.
  21. What kind of suspension pump do you have? Most of us use the "Progressive" brand pump and it has a zero loss chuck. If that is what you have, you should not be losing much, if any, air when you remove it.
  22. My rule of thumb, and others here will have differing opinions, is 3,000 miles with regular oil and 5,000 with synthetic. Now if you don't ride that many miles, I would say twice per year.
  23. Friday it was 86 F here. Yesterday it snowed for a couple of hours in the morning. Today I mowed the yard. Mother Nature has a warped sense of humor.
  24. OK folks...let's give this about another week. Sometime next weekend I will draw a winner. So if you haven't done so, you better post to this thread if you want your name in the hat.
  25. That turned out really well. Nice job. MUCH cheaper than buying it all from Yamaha.
