    Part of the growing pains Jerry, it comes in cycles and it's gone on from the start. It's hard sometimes to have 5000 plus people and everyone get along all the time....just like a family. It just seems right now that there are a few things that are getting attention, not a huge deal. But we would like to thank you for noticing and for being an active part of the membership

    I truly wish we could be there my friend, them #'s just aren't coming up! It's a conspiracy man We'll shoot through St. Louis on our way to Texas at Christmas, so you'll have to wait until then for some cheesecake....be safe in ES and we'll see you folks soon.

    We all get the urge to speak our minds when we read or hear something that gets our dander up. Forums are the worst way to express throughts, because you can't tell many times of the tone of the conversation. It's a very sensitive subject when lawmakers go after certain area of the population due to maybe or maybe not misconceptions. We have ALL done stupid things in our lives, there are none of us that are above reproach. Myself as a moderator, I dont take the opportunity to usually engage in the hot topic threads. It seems that when I do, some folks take that as a sign that it's a free for all to say what they want. I keep quiet so not to fuel the fire, but rest assured I DO HAVE AN OPINION. I choose not to drag the forum down with some of my views thet I'm sure others would look at as being extreme. This is why we dont talk Religion or Politics as they always go bad. I'm sure many of our LEO's have had 1st hand experience with squids. I have had a few do the same thing to me and I just shake my head and hope that they never reproduce. We all have the right to feel a certain way on subjects, we dont have the right to come on here and spill it out and start fires. That isn't a slam at anyone in particular, but the reason we have a close knit group here is we dont let threads that get out of hand stick around. If I can have restraint about posting to threads, it is not beyond all of us to not fuel the fires. OK off the soapbox and Bill, you do a lot for this forum, no apology is nessecary

    Kenny, Dennis and I checked the one on the '86 before you took it, are you having problems with it???

    Not saying that your not getting the mileage you mentioned you have got, but I do not know how anyone get's upwards of 50mpg out of a Venture. I have never ever ever got close to 50 mpg no matter how nice I played with the bike and how slow I went. I would love to get 42 mpg right now....my '08 gets about 38 when I play very nice with it

    You can go to one of our vendors that offer us a discount. Flatout motorsports is a good place and there are others in the vendors area, more will jump on with other names, Zanotti's is another good place to buy new OEM parts. http://www.zanottimotor.com/

    It's not uncommon for them to be cracking, my '99s both had cracks in them and I later replaced them on my 2nd one. The carbs have to be pulled off, but other than that it isn't terrible. spray some carb cleaner or starting fluid around the cracks to see if there is a leak. The engine will rev a bit if there is an airleak. I believe that I spent about $150 for the replacements, might be more now. If there isn't a problem and you can live with looking at the cracks then....dont worry about it till it becomes a problem

    Good to see you folks getting hooked up for a ride, seems like it has been a busy weekend for all of us on the site

    Not quite crazy, just a bit more abnormal that the rest of us Sounds like a neat project....

    Your in the right spot Steve, just be careful, Giga posted up a maintenance day at his place and he was swamped with folks If you ever need help, just come on and ask for it. Most folks will come for just the ride to get there, but if you offer to feed or take care of their thirst...it'll sound like a heard of Elephants running to your door

    I'm still stewing about this, and you can bet that I WILL find out who his supervisor is. There was no excuse for him to react the way he did. He should have just sent them back home. I know the guy who they are talking about as he is just an idiot, I'll get him....I hold grudges for a long time

    Sometimes the simplest things make the biggest impact, glad that you got it fixed

    Taps, If you bike has the original springs in it, the upgrade needs to be done. The stock springs will be broken down and if you have seal leaks then I would replace them. If they dont leak, then just install the front progressive springs. It's really not that hard, and I know that there are a few members close by you that would probably assist for perhaps an Ice Cream
