  1. I know you didn't mention about and leaking fuel, but I would wonder if maybe there is a stuck float? I would tap on both the carb bowls on the cylinders in question in addition to all the advise that has already been passed on.
  2. I always loved the rendition of that song. It's on the Santa Clause with Tim Allen...thanks for posting it up Merry Christmas to all of our members and their families
  3. JT, Dont take time off just to send out payment. Shoot me your addy and I'll get a set off to you. When you can get to it send the payment...not a big deal. Squid
  4. That is a drag, I can only imagine how frustrating it would be to get parts there. Here's hoping that it will all make it in time, I know I'm going crazy not being able to be on my bike
  5. I sold a dirtbike on ebay and the guy who bought it used this company http://www.haulbikes.com/haulbikes.html I was extremely impressed with the rig that showed up and this is all that they do. If I was in a position to have to have a bike shipped, these are the folks that I would use
  6. Then I suppose that would make 2 troublemakers in this post
  7. Lynn, I have had several inlines, and they do what they are supposed to. I just dont like the jerky throttle responce off of many that I have ridden. I wouldn't want that on a touring bike, and I really do like how the V4 sounds. I do agree that it doesn't need to be a huge displacement, just an efficient use of power. With a little time and effort our V4's will rock and roll, I have no problems with the 1300cc's....perhaps the Vmax rearend is just what I need to cure that itch
  8. Cool Beans Old Man!!! Yet another one for Grandma to spoil...good on all of you. Pass on the best wishes to everyone
  9. If I do that...then we wont be friends anymore, he dont trust you for some reason
  10. I doubt that I will own another inline four, and never for a touring bike. I have a feeling that Yamahas V4 days are numbered. I'll stick with Yamahas new touring bike will be off the Stratoliner frame and engine...we'll see PS But it would be nice if they totally redesigned the platform we have and kept the V4
  11. Love the fabrication aspect of it, very trick looking....just not looking very comfy
  12. Thanks Thom....your a good man no matter what I've heard
  13. Not a bad idea JT...you might be on to something here
  14. Let me run this back up top I wanted to let everyone know that for the rest of the month of December, Half of the monies collected from the sale of the DLB will go to Black Owl's Iraq Christmas fund. So if you wanted a good excuse to buy these...there it is
  15. Lets run this back up top here Folks, we haven't had quite the success with this as we would like to see...so let me sweeten it up here. From now until the end of December anybody that buys a set of the 1st gen Driving light brackets or a pair of the R/K muffler brackets I will donate HALF of the sale cost to this. We can still send out care packages after Christmas as they always need stuff over there. Lets see if we can make the pot a little bigger, and let our boys know that we at VR.org give a damn about them
  16. Lewis, I just wanted to thank you for all the time and effort you put into all the Vogel's. There are some folks that step up to the plate and swing for the fence. You always go the extra mile for us and I for one appreciate all that you do here for us
  17. An electrical engineer with a minor in computers Pretty cool and I love it when they keep that meter spinning...makes my profit portfolio fat!

    Dickies

    Not a bad price, I have a similar black one that works great for those days that start at 35 degrees
  19. Looks good Rooster As far as having it Venturerider International...that's what it is. Many countries represented here and I too agree that the ring sounds good
  20. Good lookin' pics...you mean old Santa you
  21. Thanks Boss
  22. I have a set from JC Whitney http://www.jcwhitney.com/autoparts/Product/tf-Browse/s-10101/Pr-p_Product.CATENTRY_ID:2002576/p-2002576/N-111+10211+600014710/c-10111 I like them and they are holding up well, Kuryakyn's are nice, but they cost an arm and leg. I saved the money and had more for fuel to ride
  23. Have fun and be safe on it, we'll be leaving Michigan in 2 weeks with the '99 in tow to get some riding in down south....I have almost chewed through the leather straps!
  24. Couldn't have said it any better Thank you to all our Warriors, Past and Present
  25. I'm not laughing at you Thom...I'm laughing with you ....but you just dont know that your laughing :rotf::rotf:
