    There are actually two of them. One under the left side cover as Cougar said and the other inside the right lower cowling.

    I think that way to big a deal is made out of it. Heck, when we were kids we played with that stuff all the time. Later in life, I worked for Diamond Shamrock Chemical Company in Muscle Shoals, AL. It was a chlorine plant and at that time, the chlorine was made in mercury cells. We had mercury spills all the time and were always scooping it up. The main danger is when it gets HOT. It will vaporize and then you can inhale it. Even that isn't a huge deal unless you do it on a continued basis. I'm not saying that you shouldn't be careful with it and it is certainly not great for the environment but small quantities are certainly not going to kill you.

    That really does look great.

    OK...I KNOW it's in the lower right cowling. please keep it quite if I am wrong.

    OH....I forgot. You actually DID offer to bring beer.

    I think it is inside the right lower cowling.

    COMMISSION? I didn't hear anything about that. Now that you mention it.

    Well heck...I GUESS I'm glad that it all worked out. Hope you don't decide to be a stranger though. You know you are welcome here regardless of what you ride.

    Yea, they are completely different. I will say no, it won't work. It would be a complete re-design and I don't know where you would even put it.

    Very nice Charlie. Now PLEASE try to keep the shiny side up.

    There is an adjustment on the cruise. The manual shows how to adjust it.

    For all of you who have ordered, I put them in the mail yesterday with the exception of two folks that did not include their addresses. I have sent emails or PMs to you two. But to be sure, I need addresses for: George Powell and Bobby Petersen Thanks

    I repaired my original seat but it was years ago. I pretty much did it the same way that Hairman did but I did manage to get the old bolt out and put a new one in the same way it was in. It was years ago and I don't remember now exactly how I did it.

    Well...now that a garden hose was mentioned, there is another idea that I could implement. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrun-MgBjU8]YouTube- The End of Toilet Paper Part I[/ame]

    I've had a Utopia on a stock seat and now a Corbin on a Corbin seat. They are both very good. I wouldn't have a preference for one over the other.
  16. Freebird
    I haven't. I guess it could probably be done but it would require cutting a hole through the seat.

    I've got plenty of leaves but no corn cobs. Do you think you could just spray them off and bring them with you?
  18. Freebird
    That thread should be all that you need.

    It is not VBulletin that is going away. They are coming out with new updates all the time. In fact, they recently released a brand new version that I have not even upgraded to yet due to problems that some folks are having with it. I am waiting for the bugs to be worked out before installing it here. It is VBPortal that has been discontinued. That is the software that I use for the home page. It integrates closely with the VBulletin software but they have not upgraded it in a while and it appears to be going away. Even after updating VBulletin 3.8 last week with a minor security/bug fix version, it caused some compatibility issues with the home page that I had to figure out. There is no way that it would work the the latest VBulletin 4. Therefore, to maintain current with future VBulletin releases, I will have to find a new solution for the home page. I certainly plan to stay with VBulletin for our forum.

    Yea, the timing may not be the best but we sometimes don't choose such things.

    I have always run the VBulletin software here. Well...almost always...when I first started the site, I started with something else but that only lasted for about a day and then I started over completely. Since starting the site, I there have been many upgrades to the software due to various security issues and also new features. It is a constantly evolving package and that will not likely ever change.

    All of you SHOULD get an email when your memberships are expiring. Since this is the first time for this, I am just HOPING that it works as it should. You can look in your UserCP though under Paid Subscriptions and it will show you the date that they expire. You can renew anytime you wish and a year will be added to the current expiration date. Don

    Thank you and to everybody here. Money is fine. The dues more than cover the hosting and this upgrade. Thanks for asking though. Depending upon which route I take, it will cost between nothing and about $275.00. Either way, like I said, it is covered already with the yearly dues.

    I just walked out and looked at my bike to see how much space is available. NO WAY would I mount anything there. There is not much room between that and the gas tank/ignition shroud. If something was mounted on that ball joint and due to vibration or any other reason, dropped down a bit...it would certainly hit the tank and prevent you from being able to steer. It looks fine on the bike in the picture at the link but there is NO WAY I would use it on our bikes.
