Sorry bud, The pain of putting the dog down after so many years of good times is great. I know and feel your pain. Get another one soon if you can. The last time I waited too long and feel I wasted time, that could have been spent with a dog around. My new dogs the same breed as my last and he is great. So was my last bouvier,and the mutts before them. I like to think I have all my dogs waiting for me when I go.

He quoted me $25.00 per tire to mount and balance. I had specifically ask him "If I bring in the wheels and tires. How much to mount them?" Today when I went to pay him. He goes "that will be $74.00" When I ask him why. He said "you didn't buy the tires from me, did you?" "So thats the price." This was after he ignored me for 10 mins while he put price stickers on sparkplug boxes. Also they said come back after noon. I came back well after 3:00PM And they still weren't done. The place is called "Cycle City:Broomall, PA." I already don't like these guys. the arrogance was unbelievable, Like he was doing me a favor bye ripping me off and wasting my time. I really don't look forward to have to deal with these guys at all in the future. I would have taken them to a different place had I known they were gonna be aholes...sigh OK, I had to vent. Now I'm gonna go put them on the bike. Man, that guy pissed me off......

Man, I'm kicking myself now. I could of had this on the road for this weekend and most likely ran it up to Reading for the PA ride this weekend. But with no title in hand I cant get tags:bang head: Yammy dealer will mount em for 25 each, the Harley place wants 40 a pop. So, tomorrow I take em up to the yammy guy to get mounted. I went with the "Kenda Kruz" tire. Both made week 26/08 very fresh......mmmmmmmmmmmmmm! Won't be long now.

I googled that and came up with this among other stuff http://www.alloytm.com/2008/05/30/unmountable_boot_volume/ Good luck. You may need something to get to the command prompt. Windows XP disk or a floppy maybe.

Yeah, I will take a good look at the bearings and see if they need replaced. Brakes look brand new.

Well either it fixed itself or I was trying to put it in gear with the kick stand down. In any case it's working good now with the 20-50 weight in it. It's running better everytime I start it up now. All I have to do is get that new rubber on it and fix a couple plastic things and she will be ready for inspection. I'll be pulling the wheels off next and I think I'm going with the Perelli tires.

Hi all, I am a bit of a computer geek and have a home server that does my security cams and other stuff too. One of them is a "Teamspeak 2" server. This is the thing gamers and others use to talk for free, in groups or 1 on 1. You have to know how to use your microphone feature on your computer to do it. Headphones and a mic work best.ie:no feed back. So, anybody that wants to try and use it:PM me for a "User name" and "password" then, download http://www.goteamspeak.com/?page=downloads Try it out on one of their test rooms,if you can find them. And from there I"ll show you how to connect to the room and chat. Also if there are any gamers in the club, and you have "Xfire" Contact me so I can put you on my buddy list. With Xfire and Teamspeak installed it easyer to join other gamers and the Ts2 room there in with one click or so. If you never used this kind of app before. Its pretty kool. Talk for free, for as long as you want,at your computer. To anyone in the world who has Teamspeak running too. I used it for a gaming clan I was in, we played those shootem up war games like Battlefield 1942 and Call Of Duty. But no nobody uses it but me and my sister for the most part,anymore.

Bike it running alot better now after day thee of the seafoam in there. I changed the oil and filter using "Castrol 4T Motorcycle oil 20-50 weight" and now the clutch is grabbing,she stalls when I put it in gear, I just tryed to bleed it with the mityvac and it looked like I did it right, but its still doing it. It did work once and I thought it was back to normal but it started doing it again. I can move it when its in gear with the clutch in. moves alittle better in neutral. Whats up? Oil too thick. The stuff I drained out was beat and black, not many little metal pieces thou. I knew I was getting too lucky. Well I hope this is an easy fix.I'm thinking its gonna need the master and slave rebuilt,which I should be able to do.

lol. Its all good. I'm leaning to the Perrillis cause I have heard of them. A member here has recommended the Maxxis. And I saw a review of the Kenda tire which was favorable.They are all in the $60.00 range. Which is what I'm gonna try for the first set of tires

Bikes coming along, seafoam and idle adjustment has is idleing with the choke off now. Bled all the hydraulics, rode it around the parking lot across from me, Felt good, not tippy and the weight didn't bother me at all. I have to get tires and 2 diaphragms for the wells on the bars. Its backfiring a little at idle, but seems to run good. Battery tender hooked up. What tires of these 3? Perrelli, Maxxis or Kenda? I felt no wobble and think I could ride it around a little to help get the carbs clean etc. But . the back tire has cracks inbetween every groove, on the outside where it meets the side wll sort of. There both Metzs and old so they gotta go.Thanks again guys and gals, everything Ive done so far I have gotten from you.

The 88 I just got is showing the same thing. The rubber is trying to move away from the seal. Probably where the air got in. They are bring it over on a trailer Sat. So I'm syked to spend a good couple hours going over the bike, and see what needs to be done. At least what I can figure out. Me and the OP will most likely be seeing alot of the same stuff.Thanks in advance for all the help you guys will provide.
