  1. I already was there and came home already!! Ask Lewis...
  2. Break a leg!
  3. I drove the rest of the way home today, but no Apple Pie, just Sailor Jerry's spiced rum...
  4. Nice looking bike! Now for some bling... Welcome aboard!!
  5. OK wwe finally made it home for a while!! Hopefully see some of you at Big Tom's shindig!
  6. I'm about 95% sure the TCA is the PiggyBacker...
  7. As far as the glare, do you have a stock windshield with the blacked out bottom? Might make a difference...
  8. Only to those in the know, Trader!! Well here we are in Sutton WV halfway between Skid and Yammer, and also sort of close to Easy Rider. We weren't planning on coming quite this far but all the hotels from Va to here were full! We're in a Microtel way up on a hill and it's actually quite nice! The rate was under $100 and at 8 PM I'm happy to find any room! Good thing is we are only 6 1/2 hours from home. The trip has been fun but after 2 weeks on the road there's no place like home...
  9. Waaaay cool Dan!!
  10. I generally wave or nod, and if they don't wave back, oh well their loss..,.
  11. Does that come with maid and room service???
  12. Also, the Forum page still does not list if anybody is on or not...
  13. No, they made the campground there so that after a night or two you would want to rent one of their quiet peaceful rooms...
  14. Well, we're a week early for Vogel and Lewis is working so homeward bound...
  15. Yes, I would be just a bit cautious of this one...
  16. Very high price for MAF, but if it is bad it will give wrong information to the engine computer. it should be only $200 plus or minus. The ping is probably the bad Knock sensor. Not sure of the cost of that but it should also only be a couple hundred dollars. The dealer cost probably included labor, but it also was to encourage you to buy a new vehicle...
  17. Sorry for no update yesterday, but we were in a hard to access the internet location yesterday!! First off, the wedding. Man oh man, what a beautiful ceremony and wild reception party!!! The ceremony was held at Stetson University in their Chapel complete with a 5 piece orchestra! Very n ice service! It was held on Tuesday strictly because of the date, the 6th, which was the day they met! The reception was a blast!! My friend Ron and his wife are professional entertainers and they are friends with this really good retro band that did a great job of performing! During their break, My friend and his wife, along with their old drummer from the band from the 70's when I knew them did a reunion and preformed a set. Man, what a fantastic flashback!! Being a unique couple both from unique backgrounds the reception turned out nonstandard! A girl caught the garter among the bachelors and repeated it twice more! Then to top things off a guy caught the bouquet!! Now the couple went to a lot of legal work to make their married name the same as the bride's maiden name in honor of the grandmother who was there still ready to party at the young age of 95!!! She regrets not being able to get up on the dance floor as she needs a walker but the spirit was there!! All of us on the floor really felt in our 20's again although some of us felt it the following morning!! The bride is now to be known as Geraldine McBoing Boing for those who remember Captain Kangaroo as she was soooo happy she was literally hopping up and down on the dance floor!!! The following day we went over to my friend's house in Davenport Fl but along the way in the same town we visited a member of Triketalk.com, a trike website I have recently joined. We had a wonderful time of fellowship, and also polished off a bottle of wine before hitting my friend's place for further festivities! There we met another friend of his from their college days who I had heard of but never met, and found out that he had heard of me as well and was glad to meet! We both had a great time at the reception and now I have another friend in New Hampshire!!! Great evening!!! So, today we made it all the way to Atlanta at yet another Hampton Inn! We got here just in time for Customer Appreaciation night and we got free Subway subs AND free wine!!! Saved us the expense of dinner! Tried to reach Lewis by cell phone but had to leave a message. Hope someone is there when we drop by Tomorrow around noon...
  18. Hey Buddy, you BETTER show up!!! This is a family, remember??? Sure, we are a motorcycle website, but we are family first...
  19. Not me, I stayed at a Holiday Inn...
  20. Not required, but a good idea. The mod is more for the fairing vibration. Ruffy has full details on how to do it, but basically you drill and tap for 1/4 - 16 or 5/16, and then McGuiver some short pieces of 1" diameter metal...
  21. If you go with the Barons and the Flanders you will need longer throttle cables, more like 3" to 4", and longer brake and clutch lines. With both it should put the grips just about where you want them! As Richardracing mentioned the chrome ignition switch will interfere with full turn, but realistically those plastic chrome pieces end up getting all scratched up without risers! With the risers you may want to drill and tap holes for installing phony handlebar type extensions to keep your rubber mounts for the fairings. These extensions only have to be a couple inches long...
  22. Flanders makes a set of handlebars that gives you a 4" pullback...
  23. Looks like so far Ky is winning...
  24. Yup! We assume since he got the new 'Wing he's now on one of their forums. Unfortunately people come and people go...
  25. Dang!! Missed it!!
