  2. Does this chart help ? Keith
  3. I have a Piggybacker XL that should be here on Monday. To give you an idea to get delivered to my town all duty,tax's ,exchange etc It's going to be just under $2000. The exchange on the Cdn vs US dollar is not so good right now. When I was talking to them they had my freight quote mixed up with someone from Saskatchewan and it was almost double mine...mine was $249 US. If anyone is close to the border they will ship in the US for $79 I believe. Keith Tim Here is a pic of me loading my 77 Honda 750 (still have it)
  4. Not sure if this is an option....but may give you an idea or 2. Keith http://www.ridetek.com/

    MP3 Player

    Bigfoot Here is a free CD Ripper you can use to "rip" your CD collection to your computer. Then as said earlier your MP3 player should have a program to transfer to your computer or in alot of cases you can just open the mp3 player folder and drag & drop the mp3 files. http://www.download.com/Free-CD-Ripper/3000-2168_4-10212165.html Keith

  8. If you use EBay, it seems to me I have seen them there for $219 for the lamps and bracket. Keith
  9. I have a Piggybacker trailer ordered and was wondering what I could put on the back to take the bare look off of it. I was poking around on E Bay and came across these items. It looks like the decal guy will do custom work. Keith Decal Link won't work item nbr 350166610738http://pics.ebaystatic.com/aw/pics/globalAssets/rtCurve.gif Patch For some reason link won't work......item nbr 310122733046
  10. I'm just wondering.....do anyone torque the spark plugs? I did the last time I changed them and torque anything I remove. Except for the oil drain plug.....I started to but I didn't like the feel of it when I was torquing it! Just Curious Keith
  11. here is a link to some other plate frames. http://www.electricalconnection.com/other-lighting/license.htm Keith
  12. When I traveled on the ferry last summer (6hr trip) it was my first time tying down. A Goldwing rider came to my assistance. He taped the front brake on with electrical tape and stood on the left floorboard and had me tighten the ratchet strap on that side when he did. I didn't have any problem at all. Keith
  13. I have been reading through the postings on swivel hitch's and was wondering if anyone has used this style? Or have any opinions?

  14. It's not government insurance here so you can shop around. I find where they are low on a car or house they would be higher on something else so It balances out. Keith
  15. Hi There For my 2006 venture Plates $80 / year Insurance $1350.00/year full coverage ($1000 deductible) Just public Liability $650/year Fire and Theft for the winter months is $50/mth We can't insure for just the riding season it has to be for the full 12 month term....they say that bulk of the premiums are used during the peak months June - September. I'm 50 with a fairly clean driving record (1 speeding ticket last yr in car) and have had a m/c lic since 1975 Hope this helps Keith
  16. Speaking of snow....have a look at this Snowmobile from 1926.....pretty amazing video ! Keith http://tywkiwdbi.blogspot.com/2009/01/1926-snowmobile-could-pull-20-ton-load.html
  17. I don't have that bag but I did buy one of these last year. I used it on a 2 week trip last summer and it was perfect! http://cgi.ebay.ca/Universal-Motorcycle-Tail-Bag-NEW-MotoPak-GT-Roll_W0QQitemZ370154460420QQihZ024QQcategoryZ34284QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Keith

  20. Running me ragged is an understatement !! Not all her fault I guess........I'm home all day so without anyone else to torment she gets her share. Now if I could only get her to aim for the training pad a little better I'd be happy !!! Lots of fun ....my first dog in 35 years....wish I had done it earlier! Keith
  21. I got a new pup for Xmas and just started doing some research on dog food types. I was shocked what I read about what I was feeding her. Have a look at this site....it gives you a rating on various foods...its an independent site with lots of info. Keith http://www.dogfoodanalysis.com/

  23. I agree with hig4s.....Don't use WD-40 its a very high solvent based product. There are alot better products out there. WD-40 is good for cleaning parts and things IMHO. Keith
