Good Morning everybody - What an experience, all inclusive vacation, got here yesterday and have done nothing but relax and let people wait on us. we've got a fishing trip planned and hopefully I'll luck into a sailfish or at minimum a nice tuna. I'm happy I don't have the Venture 'cause I'd want to go riding and that could turn sour real quick. gonna be hard to leave next week.

I guess I don't fully understand - I've had a dozen dirt bikes that got me from point a to point b, then I went to the street and have had as many street bikes that got me from point a to point b. The 'streets' were all Honda and Yamaha, 650's, 1100's, 1500's and now a 1300 Venture. If they quit making the Venture and I continue riding, I'll find something else that will get me from point a to point b. I really don't care what I ride, I just don't like working on a wing.

Best wishes Taters - I hope your recovery this time is a good one !!

Hey guys - all that are going to RT this year - my phone # is in my profile. Give me a call when you get there, sure would like to make a connection with names and faces. It looks like my wife will NOT be going - unforseen circumstances - damn, I really wanted her to experience this first time with me.

Thanks Herb- if you don't mind, I'll copy and paste in a message to him.

A friend is heading to the west coast from Ohio and was told that route 40 thru New Mexico and Arizona is heavily grooved from semi's. Anybody in that area have current info ? Thanks

I usually don't have any trouble but getting off the bike is always fairly simple. I dismount and that allows her to slide forward to my seat and dismount as I just did.

I'm a newbie to this board but not to cancer. I know the pain - My condolences to Bob's family and friends.

There's a LOT of truth in that - On my way back to Ohio from Baltimore Md yesterday, I almost ran a stop sign. Fortunately,my wife was with me and she alerted me and we got stopped but in the wrong lane and way in front ( wrong side ) of the stop sign. It was state route to state route and a lot of traffic on the one I was supposed to stop for. It was a matter of having my mind on business instead of the road. lesson learned I HOPE !!

might be easier just to stop when the light is RED

The one partial plate looked like an Ohio plate - perhaps it was Springfield Ohio

Good Luck on a safe trip back home RandyR - watch the other guy - he'll be your nemesis.

I'm the furthest thing there is from being a Ford enthusiast but that is one NICE car. I do have a question - is it a 10 footer ? or more.

I guess the closest I get to a name for the Venture is "Bike"

Contact MotorTrike in Texas - I believe they use the 7 1/2 rear end and it's a ford.

That's REALLY quite a find. Not too many people have an item reserved only to museums. I wonder if the sale will make any headlines ? be pretty interesting to see what it actually goes for.

I've been looking for a utility trailer for several days, can't find a used one. What I need is a tandem axle, one axle w/brakes and 6 ply tires. A 14' trailer would work just fine but I don't have anything against a 16' except the price. If anybody knows of one within a hundred miles or so of Canton Ohio - pm me or call. phone # is in my profile Thanks in advance Dick B added because I'm not too bright - no ramps- no side load - no rails - no nothin' - just a flat bed trailer ( thanks barend )
-
I only had 2 "plugs" on my RK's - one on each end - takes quite a long shaft to reach the middle

Yeah - I know I'm one lucky guy to have spending freedom I have. I guess the real secret is that there's no debt incurred. The card gets paid off every month, plus I get 3% taken off the top.

I've got 600 + sales/buys on ebay with a perfect rating. I have individual sales up to $10,000.00 and individual purchases just over $19,000.00 - never had a problem with one exception and that was over a $12.00 used phone. The buyer had to wait for almost a month for her disability check. Of course that never went anywhere. It ended up costing me a relisting fee and the image of someone spending money they don't have. Had there been some rhetoric prior to the bidding I could have arranged for shipping/listing fees only as payment.
