  1. If you all keep this up and gas prices are still going up.I'll still try to be there....:cool10:
  2. Hope you have a safe ride Brenda. The small plane was kinda scary for me the first time flying. I had to take a small aircraft from Lexington to Louisville, then from there a nice giant jet to Roy Rogers airport in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The small aircraft would fly into some turbulence and it feels as if the seat is gone. Took some getting used to. I flew for 3 weeks back and forth every weekend. Odd thing to me, in Oklahoma they call a pond, a tank. Congratulations on your new ride..... Does your husband ride any ?
  3. Glad you are going with Venture and welcome to the site. Have them throw that system in with the deal. Also see if you can get a few free oil changes and filter. Do it yourself though. Make sure there is not any factory recalls and if so, have they been taken care of ? My bike had a recall on the factory head bolt torque. The dealer did not tell me or act like they new, around 1,200 mile later I had a oil leak and it was fixed by another dealer with a mechanic I knew and trusted. He had to replace the head casket because of the failure to torque the bolts properly before they left the first dealer. He told me about the recall and fix that should have been done at the sale. This is the most comfortable bike I have ever owned. I have had very few issues. Fuzzy

  7. Yes, I understand. I love to ride in WV, the mountains so wonderful. No wonder John Denver said, "Country roads, take me home, to the place, where I belong, West Virginia, Mountain Momma, take me home, country roads." Fuzzy
  8. Thank you. I will see that he gets this information. Thanks to all.... Fuzzy
  9. WOW! Thanks Monty. Now that was interesting. I watched all the videos and I have got to make plans to visit Sam and his place the next time I am down that way. He is just as down home as a country boy could be. My kind of people. Thanks for sharing.... Fuzzy
  10. Good idea, I like that. Would love to see this done. I only have 13,000 right now though, so I will probably wait a few more I guess. What does the book recommend ? Is it 25,000 I think ? Fuzzy
  11. Wonderfully said. I wished that all could be together as you all. Congratulations.... So many couples don't make it very far in marriage life nowadays. I also am thankful for my wife and our life's together so far, 29 yrs this October. Fuzzy
  12. Great video. Proud to be an American. Thanks to all... Fuzzy
  13. Yes, God can help in any situation. Fuzzy
  14. Me too.
  15. No expert here. I do love these first set of Avon Venoms, 8,000 miles and still lots more to go. Great in the rain ...... Fuzzy
  16. Thanks RSTDdog. I will pass this on. You have found some nice ones, especially that last one. He has been checking the Graigs List some, but like you said, I think he is going to have to drive a few miles to get what he is wanting. Fuzzy
  17. Sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers for you and your family. Fuzzy
  18. Love Bluegrass music. I also watch Song Of Mountains on Sunday night. Last year myself and JD rode down to the Hills of Home Bluegrass festival near Clint-wood, Va. I loved it and old Ralph was still able to sing a couple songs. Gold Heart group was there, a couple young girls and their Daddy that where great. If you where there, you could not miss our bikes parked at the stage area entrance. The guard said park them there so I can keep an eye on them. He was a rider himself. Had a great time. Fuzzy
  19. Congrats tomorrow you two. Fuzzy
  20. 1980 - 1982 Honda CB 900 Custom..........or 1983 Honda CB 1000 Custom. I told him that I would post this to see if any of you all knew of this bike for sale here in the Morehead,Ky general area, say 150-200 miles out or so. Perhaps you may have one ? Thank you in advance. I thought this would be the place to post such a question, since it is not Venture or Tour Deluxe or Gold-wing related. Fuzzy
  21. Sounds like a great idea to me. I will have to see when that time comes along. Here is the link for everyone. I love that bluegrass music. http://www.jerusalemridgefestival.org/about_jerusalem_ridge/Welcome2011byDoc.php :cool10: Fuzzy
  22. Glad you come out of that in one piece. Them yellow painted lines will really get you. I work for the state hwy dept. here, and I have stopped and checked the roadways a lot. When I am in the tandem salt truck and the weather says rain to snow or ice, the first place I check for freezing is the yellow painted line and the bridges. If it is frozen then it won't be long till the rest of the roadway will freeze. The painted lines will get greasy in the summer and the rain makes it worse. Be careful and ride safe. Fuzzy
  23. The wife says she would like to take me to Logan's Roadhouse (my favorite) for a steak dinner in Barboursville, WV tomorrow after church . I like that idea but really would just as soon stay at home and cook on the grill. Happy Fathers Day to all. Also thinking about those whom have lost their Dad recently. I miss my Father in Law, he was just like a Daddy to me. Fuzzy
  24. I read a post from Goose and he stated that you can inspect the rear pads from behind the right rear bag. I did as he said and it was no problem. Just get you a long screw driver and pop the plastic cover off, then have a bright small flashlight and your spectacles to see the brake lining. The cover pops right back on with the use of the screw driver to push down upon the cover once placed in position. My pads where in the 1/4" use range. The inside was around 3/16" while the outside was 1/4". So for those of you whom have changed and have experience with brakes. I am wondering though, just how much pad can I depend upon until change time ? Do the original pads have rib-bits in them, or are they clued? If clued then I may be looking at about another 4,000 miles till change time? The bike has 13,000 on it now, 2007 model. I also checked my Avon Venom tires with a bright flashlight for cracks. There was none. So I am pleased. They are two years old and 8,000 miles. So I am happy about that. But I am somewhat concerned about the brakes, since I have no prier experience with them. Thanks to Goose for the information on checking the pads. Thanks to all in advance for any help deciding on the pads to change. I do know that when I change, I think I need to use the EBC double H sintered pads. I saw some here in the classifieds for $ 27.00 . Fuzzy
