  1. Pork in the Pines is held on Grandpagak's acreage near Bemidji MN, free camping on site, the closest motel is the Pine Lakes, 218-266-3914, next is Walker Hotel, 218-547-2200, Country Inn Walker, 218-547-1400. Bemidji is 24 miles north, will have many more motels, but the best times come well after dark. This all happens on Labor Day weekend, starting on Friday evening.
  2. yep, just planning doing mine too, now I can see what it might look like on mine, 08 black cherry/raven
  3. Hitchdoc definitely over engineers their hitches, had worked with him years ago on a computer system. He is a farmer that made some hitches for friends, then went and found that there was a niche for bike hitches and went to town. His operation is just of the I90 in Jackson MN. The biggest thing I found when pulling my trailer was to keep a good amount of weight on the tongue and make sure you have everything packed in tight to keep it from moving and changing the center of gravity. 400 lbs would be the max weight of trailer and contents, start with the lightest trailer.
  4. I would guess that either Russel or Gary put it up before, and Steve put it up this time!

  7. Thanks, Sharon and Orlin, had a great time, made new friends, met up with some old ones. Realized that you can get lost around there fast! Will be planning to attend next year and work on the kids to be there too! Daryl and Sheila
  8. Running a ct takes a bit of adjustment, myself I run between 45 and 50 psi, I know over the recommended, but ct don't have much for a sidewall.

  11. Had my landlord call me about a venture that he was hauling for a friend, went in and found a very nice 83 Royale, slightly burned around the rear brake! VIN JYA31M002DA003575 build 4/83 Offered to take it of their hands for 500, but he wanted too much more, will sit in a shed and rot!
  12. Well the VW tire size is 165/80/15, the Goodrich size is 155/80/15 TA model if I'm not mistaken, it will be my next one.
  13. On IA 9 and US 71, Spirit Lake, Okoboji, Iowa Great Lakes area!
  14. I have the "screaming eagles" on mine, I like the sound. Also had a pair that came off a electra glide, drilled them out, didn't like the tinny sound, too quiet without the drill out. Go with the eagles
  15. How about a quick meet n greet in Arnolds Park, June 19?

  22. Cowpuc, 08 Venture, I know the feeling about odors, I sometimes miss the smell of the old diesels,
  23. Just wondering, I know dangerous, what could happen if I put 40:1 mixed fuel thru my bike if in an emergency? Was thinking about throwing a can in the trailer just in case.
