  1. Dave, Fog lights throw a shorter beam than the driving lights, and dont light up the road as well. A decent set of driving lights will give lots more useable light further up the road. The 35 watt bulbs are what I used, they were made by Hella, but can be hard to find. Here's a post by Lonestarmedic that has the smaller lights that I have seen used http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=19714&highlight=Driving+lights If you like these and can't find them locally, let me know and I'll try to stop and get a part # for you to go by....or I'll pick you up a set and ship them
  2. Dan, Get a counsult with an attorney and see what you options are. It would more than likely be a couple hundred bucks but the advise you will get will be the law and not speculation. I agree with getting the DA involved and seeing what options are available there.
  3. It wont hurt it, but I dont mismatch tires. Switch to the Avons front and rear, and you'll be amazed at the handling improvement.
  4. We brought dinner of Broasted DQ chicken and the fixins over to my Moms and had dinner there. It had been too long since we saw her and I didn't want her to cook, it was a good day
  5. Thank You Karre, All the way from Norway, now that is dedication! And to all that have donated, it really makes me feel good about the members here as I know how hard Don works at this site....you folks are the best!
  6. Thanks Boss for letting us help you, I know that it's a hard decision for you to make and we appreciate being able to support our site
  7. You sure are a glutton for punishment aren't you Jack
  8. Gotta love them boys
  9. Absolutely! And All of our "Mothers" on this site have a great day
  10. Be safe Mr Ambassador, looking forward to hearing some more of your riding stories at Maintenance Day in June
  11. I second putting up the sidestand and trying it, we fixed one of the Michigan members bike that way that had no spark and would turn over, the switch was goofy and once we put the stand up it started.
  12. I had a 5 year practice session before Lonna and I got together. We will be married 11 years this June, and I've know her for about 22 years. Not too many women that will put up with me, she must have bumped her head in the same place I did
  13. It's a great kit, I have done several clutch upgrades on ventures using them
  14. The weight and speed rating of the tire, make sure you look at the load index and get the heavier load rating.
  15. Joe, Thats a little shorter of a ride for you for sure I had been talking to Larry and he mentioned workiong on your bike this weekend. Never a problem with the offer, it always stands if you need a hand with something, have fun at Larry's
  16. I love to see posts like this
  17. Sorry to hear your giving it up Steve, it was a great time meeting you and the boys in Niagra Falls. Good luck on selling the bike and your new recreation
  18. Your really leaving us kinda blind here GW Is she a high maintenance type that expects roses and a fancy dinner, or can you pawn the kids off and perhaps take her out for a picnic on the bike...just the 2 of you
  19. I saw the responce before it disappeared
  20. Didn't see this responce when it was made, I run the max pressure in the rear and you can shave a bit off the front. The reason that I say to keep them up at the top pressure is your load capacity is rated at MAX inflation pressure. The less pressure you have in them, the less load capacity you have with the tire. It's easier to keep them at just about max then forget and run an overloaded under inflated tire.
  21. Yep! I was hit by one of those going south on A1A in Florida on my Interceptor. I had a full faced helmet on with the shield down doing about 70 mph. Broke the faceshield in half and damn near broke my neck it felt like. Almost like I was shot by a gun
  22. It's only 1000 miles from me Wish I could be there, but alas the powerplant needs to be put back together....Y'all have fun
  23. Happy Anniversary Don and Linda
  24. Stupid is as stupid does....too bad he didn't remove himself from the gene pool
