  1. They're not on yet, but 2nd Gen saddlebags mounted backwards. I can set one on in place and take a picture if you really want to get the idea... Dual Wolo Bad boys mounted on a set of Squidley light brackets which I used different than what Brad designed them to mount my driving lights... Dash mounted satellite radio.
  2. No, No, No!!! You got it wrong! You don't use "right" and Todd in the same sentence. We all know Todd just aint right...
  3. Were you with Wailin', Willie and the boys???
  4. I gots one! PM me your address and I'll get it out to you.
  5. Hope you like 'gator meat...
  6. Hmmmm, if you put the old bulb back in, do you have lights again? Check the headlight fuse and if it is blown try the old bulb, then the new bulb, you may have a short...
  7. Condor, there are several of us that were thinking that exact thought if we would have won! You da man Jack!!
  8. Wasn't me, I was busy with yardwork...
  9. Awww, man, missed by 2 numbers. Congratulations Jack!!!!!
  10. Drum roll please...
  11. Uhhhhh, don't speed?? And here's an answer KIC would be proud of, buy a 2nd gen:stirthepot: Seriously, I stopped using them years ago. When it goes off, it's too late, they already got you...
  12. That's exactly my plan...
  13. Are you bringing the Phantom to Kitchener next Saturday??
  14. That is EXACTLY my opinion! I was going to post that about 6 lines down on my post...
  15. Okay! And the winner is...
  16. Sooo, when are you getting the Can Am?? Big Tom is gonna be pi$$%ed you had ice cream without him...
  17. Hmmm, try a set of 4 Nokians out sometime, you may change your mind. Of course, the short wheelbase on those baby Blasers do leave a little to be desired... Of course Andy does make a point about not driving properly for conditions! After watching the video again I saw a red car make a lane change in front of the truck the SUV tagged first. Those road conditions weren't THAT bad, I've driven in a LOT worse than that. The driver waqs having a hrad time controlling the vehicle from the get go. Either the driver was impaired or the tires were in poor condition.
  18. Yes very sad. If you watch prior to the accident you can see they were having a hard time controlling it all the time. I'm thinking "all season" tires instead of snow tires, maybe half bald on top of it. People buy SUV's thinking that they are invincible...
  19. Yah! I have plans for that trailer along those lines if I win it too...
  20. Hmmm, I would reply to the FBI and say you want to donate the funds to stop internet fraud...:banana:
  21. I don't know but when you find out, tell me!! I retire the day after Labor Day and I'm thinking I'll be busier than what I am at work for a while. I suggest get on that pretty bike of yours and discover America!
  22. OK Gary, so you know, the stock RSV has a 1/2 inch bore master cylinder. Hannigan, in their infinite wisdom, knew that there would never be enough volume of fluid to power stock Honda Accord calipers. They use Accord transaxles bolted up to a Ford Thunderbird rear differential. Sooo, instead of installing a larger master cylinder instead they fabricated brackets that bolt where the calipers go and mounted tiny Ducatti calipers and had special smaller diameter rotors made up. They work, but are sort of like 1st gen MK1 front brakes, they leave as lot to be desired. They also have a tendency to develop an obnoxious squeal after a while. A couple of years ago, Larry, Carbon1 modified his on his Triwing hack so that he could use Crown Victoria calipers as they use a Ford rear end as well but without the independent rear suspension. He turned me on to the source of the bigger master cylinders but he just drilled his frame and bolted the master cylinder to it. I chose not to drill my frame but rather am McGuiver'ing my own system to mount the master cylinder. I just got my bracket cut to size and rolled the edges over tonight. All that is left is to drill the holes and tap the mounting holes for both the master cylinder and the brake pedal linkage to secure it to the bracket. After that is the issue with the stock brake line being metric and the new master cylinder being SAE. Once the master cylinder is in and functional then I will be upgrading the calipers and rotors. I'm planning on using EBC slotted and cross drilled rotors and still have to decide which calipers I want to use and what pads...
  23. OK some primary pictures. First, what is replacing the stock one. Second, replacing the aftermarket push rod with the OEM one. Third, modified brake pedal assembly, before drilling a new hole. One of the holes was chopped off and the 9 degree bracing was also cut off. Next., after the new 2nd hole was added. Last, the mockup of how the plate is going to work out. I plan on rolling tyhe edges of the plate inwards to prevent side play...
  24. The spacers come out to just past the side radiator covers if that helps you out any. In a pinch you can use a large nut or stack some washers...
  25. For the most part they are all interchangeable MK1 and MK2 to my knowledge...
