    Just a suggestion; thinking outside the box...what about a built-in vacuum? No canister to lug around or haul up and down the stairs; there's just a hose and attachment. I've had one for years, the canister is located out in the garage, large motor and easy to get at the container to empty. The worse part of these units is if your house is completely finished it is much harder to install.

    Good article and I totally agree. I have owned many dogs and have been bitten by a few that were not my own, but thankfully never by a pit bull. Unfortunately, one day my Jack Russell slipped by me and ran out of the house and bit a kid on the ankle in front of my house. I phoned the parent and apologized and see if his son was ok (he was more scared than anything else) and then I had to put my dog down. One unprovoked dog bite is one too many. IMHO

    There are so many good bikes to choose from but I fully agree ... the Suzuki 650 Burgman is an amazing bike. I had never expected that kind of performance from a scooter. It has a lot of power, quick, comfortable, easy to handle, protects you from the wind, lots of storage room, quiet and you get a lot of value for the money. Try it out and you'll be surprised. I'm actually thinking about getting one for myself?

    Amazing...I think I'll wait a couple of years until the street version comes out! Talk about becoming more lazy? http://www.youtube.com:80/watch_popup?v=cuIJRsAuCHQ

    What could they possibly come back with...nice 2010 tape deck, have you taken the rear wheel off and greased all the components yet, still sync your carbs and no fuel injection on a RSV yet? Still better to ride an RSV than wait for your bike to be fixed.

    Enjoy these times with her to the fullest; great to let her talk. One day it all may change; she will talk to her friends and everyone else but not as much to you anymore and you'll wonder what happened and where have those years have gone? These times will be good memories.

    Roll on the throttle and the bike doesn't pick up speed? I think you're looking at your clutch slipping.

    Having lots of time to ride with the wife to the Gaspe Bay Peninsula, around Nova Scotia and Newfoundland, staying at B&B's.

    What a gift he has and is! Really makes you take a look within and re-evaluate your circumstances and life. I have so much that I take for granted. Just my 2 cents.

    Hmmm...maybe where they live the sun rises in the west and sets in the east as well?

    Ok, ok, maybe you're right with what you're saying...but why do you have the steering wheel on the wrong side of your cages?

    Wow...great song, but hard to watch; kept expecting a head on. You would think my wife would have wrote those lyrics; she feels the same way when riding.

    Today only, I'll share my thoughts on making money at home for $99. US. Better hurry, times running out!

    I don't think a bicyclist does own the whole lane in Michigan? A motorcycle does. See below. Sec. 660. (1) A person operating an electric personal assistive mobility device, low-speed vehicle, or moped upon a roadway shall ride as near to the right side of the roadway as practicable, exercising due care when passing a standing vehicle or one proceeding in the same direction. A motorcycle is entitled to full use of a lane, and a motor vehicle shall not be driven in such a manner as to deprive a motorcycle of the full use of a lane. This subsection does not apply to motorcycles operated 2 abreast in a single lane.

    I couldn't have said it better Annie, "We Do Not Stop Playing cause We Grow Old; We Grow Old 'cause We Stop Playing." Only this time just slow it down a little? Take care of yourself!

    I've stayed at the Hilton in Windsor there as well, great scenery of the river front with the Keg right next door. Another interesting choice is in Chatham just outside of Windsor. They dropped a lot of cash into this place. Very antique, nice and retro; never seen a place close to this design. http://www.retrosuites.com/

    Hey, what about those bikers who will pass you in your own lane? That has happened to me quite a few times on the highway. Unexpectedly a bike will shoot by you about a foot away from your bike in your lane...gotta be crazy? I caught up to a guy and asked him what are you trying to do kill both of us passing me in my lane, what's wrong with you? The answer I get...what? Lights are on...nobodies home. While riding, if you have passed someone on their bike , in their lane...just call yourself an idiot! After seeing some bikers ride, certainly can't blame all the car drivers all the time, even though they seem to never see you.

    Wow, I wished I lived in such an honest neighborhood....it's still there!

    This really made me think. I would tell you to use them as they are; but I know I would grease them if I was installing them on my own bike. So I know that doesn't help but I guess it is really up to the individual.

    I remember looking just like that, then I woke up. All the best!

    The salesman is a jerk. A good chance he likely hasn't ridden anything else or at least wouldn't. The BMW 1200LT has a few great options but after I drove my buddies for about 200 miles; I wasn't impressed. He sold it after riding and owning it for about 2 months. I would think the perfect bike for me would be the 3rd Gen. Venture, with fuel injection, Cruise, ABS, a smaller and lighter engine with higher HP and torque, a better sound system, a remodeled front ferring with power w/sheild and stock heated seats and grips. Not going to happen...just dreaming

    You have an accident caused from your rear tire or any accident on your bike? Insurance may be the last thing you worry about. My 2 cents.

    Sounds like you guy's down south use hot air? Most people that have bikes in Canada use racing air. Now that's the correct choice! Although, we could sell you some.
