Buddy of mine's been through it at age 40, and now at 50, he's back on top and doing better than ever. Hang in there, work hard and don't do anything stupid, and you'll be OK....just have to get through the hard times. If ya think about it, it's the hard times that make us who we are. Best of luck to ya.

You're not putting them in upside down are you...??? Most seals are directional. I'm certainly no guru on the subject, but when I replaced them on my 87, once I got the right seals, it was a pretty cut and dried install, with no issues, and I do have a small nick in one of the tubes, but it hasn't been a problem. Hope ya get it resolved.

Hey....that's only about 15 miles from me. What exactly is it ?

LOL I don't get the whole Miley Cyrus thing.....the gal does nuthin' for me.

I was hoping to be able to use greenboard, because it's cheap and I like the finished look, plus I wouldn't have to worry about trimming the seams. As far as the corrosive gases, I use combustion blowers from hvac equipment. They can take the corrosive aspects, but the moisture kills them after about 5 years. Fortunately, I have an endless supply. The cool thing is that they're 230 volt, but when I run them at 120 volt, they run slow and quiet, and draw just enough to remove the "stinky", but not fast enough to be noisy or draw too much cold air into the loo in Wintertime. As a side note....my cabin is on the grounds of an old dynamite factory. The ruins are evident everywhere,...on the flats, and even on the sides of the mountains. The area was chosen because the high humidity lessened the likelyhood of accidents. Looks like there were lots of small structures. The last of the buildings were torn down in '57. That aside, it's a picturesque area. You can drink from the streams worry free. It's near Sinnemahoning, PA, off of Wykoff run rd.

Here's the situation: I'm building a new outhouse at the family cabin in North Central PA. The old outhouse has been there for 25 years, and has attracted enough ants / bees that it's time to tear it down and put up a new one. It sits atop a 750 gallon concrete holding tank. I put in a small exhaust fan that draws through the poo hole and exhausts out the vent, so it's actually an odor free experience when used. Here's the question. If I drywall the new outhouse with greenboard, will I have issues with the drywall breaking down over time, ....considering it's always quite humid up there, and in the Winter, we only heat the outhouse when we're there. I'm not sure how the extended cold periods in the Winter, and the high humidity year round will affect the drywall.

Is there a place to park a motor home? Myself, the wife and a couple of friends may be able to make it if we have a convenient "home base mothership".

Voted Mostest Cutest.

My cousin has had a POS 81 Harley for a few years now, and after a lot of heartbreak and $$$, has finally taken my advise to sell it. I've been telling him what a great, and affordable bike my first gen is and that he should get rid of the Harley and get a Venture. I told him I'd find him one, just let me know when he's ready. Well, he went to a dealer and found an 87 Aspencade that he traded straight up for the Harley. No doubt the Honda is a fine bike,....but it's not a Venture. At least he moved in the right direction. The Aspencade he got is Champagne colored.....I'll have great fun telling him his bike is PINK.....lol The saga continues, but at least I'll be comfortable that the Goldwing will get him to where he wants to go and back home again.

CRIKEY.....

How in the heck could they not have caught that...???? Lol... Terrible situation, but that's funny.

I'm kinda hit and miss when it comes to seatbelts, but the point of my comment is that to "check" if you're wearing seatbelts is not a sufficient reason to be pulled over. If you're in a state where seatbelt laws are a primary law, you can certainly be pulled over and ticketed for an observed violation, but being pulled over simply to "check" don't cut it. If you were initially stopped for speeding and he let ya go,.....that makes more sense.

.....He pulled you over to "check if you were wearing your seatbelts"...??? OH, Hell No.... A man went looking for America and couldn't find it anywhere.

Got a title transferred to my name today. Took about 15 minutes from the time I hit the door on the way in, 'till I hit the door on the way out. I picked up a Honda CT110,...cool little trail bike.

Too Cool !!!

I'd like anyone who knew me to feel that the world was just a little bit better place for my being there.

I WON !!! I bought a raffle ticket for $20 for a chance to go nuts and run through the warehouse (20,000 sq. ft.) for two minutes and take all I could carry....and I won ! Boy...that two minutes went by in a blink, and the boxes were all labelled individually, but no labels large enough to read without stopping to focus in. Anyhoo, I did the best I could, and ended up with 16 boxes of premium cigars. They had to ring them out of the warehouse as if they were a sale to not screw up their inventory system, and the total came to $2177. That, and the 160 cigars I got as a normal part of Cigarnival (VIP tickets), means I won't be buying any cigars for a while. When I get home I'll post some pics and a link to the video they took.

Just got here and set up. Event starts at 5. I checked out the link for the "Big Smoke" event in Vegas, and it looks a bit pricey. for a $500 ticket you get 25 premium smokes.. For the $540 the wife spent for the two tickets here, we'll end up walking away with about 160 premium cigars. I may get a box of Drew Estates as well, which would pretty much keep me supplied until next year. Certainly something to consider, but I'm kind of a cheapskate. Heck, I even discouraged the wife from buying tickets to see the Rolling Stones at $600 a pop. She seemed to understand......kinda.....

Heading out to Cigarnival in the morning. Got the motorhome all loaded up, ready to leave before sunup. Should take about 10 hours or so. I'll try to get some pics to post when I get back.

If ya put wings on my first gen,.....I know she'd fly.

No, we don't. .....Are the second gens restricted to "slow lane only"??? Or do they allow them in the passing lane.....

I have had parts fall off all my bikes. My Honda 350, 450 750 and Kaw 900z1.. but not YET has anything fallen off my GW. Not saying it wont. Short of dirt bikes that I've broken parts off of,....I can't remember EVER having parts fall off of any of my bikes. Sounds like you need to start using Loc Tite to keep the loosey goosey at bay.

I've not been to that Cabela's yet, even though I pass it every day on my way to and from work. I've been told it's not so great when compared to the store in West Virginia. What'd you think of it....???

The link wouldn't work for me.

Best of luck to ya !
