Called TD Insurance(Primmum) last week to see if insurance will be going down any this year as it has been 7 years since my accident with my 87 Venture and they said I would have to wait till the renewal came out. WWEELLLL just got my renewal AND it went UP by $400!!!!!!!!!!!!! I haven't had any more accidents no speeding tickets have gotten OLDER tho! Thought that government had done something to lower rates BUT I guess NOT!!!!!!!!!!!! Went to oldest boys insurance co to get 3 quotes and they were $1400 $2500 $3800 Kept mentioning sport bike comparisons by agent and I kept telling her it is a TOURING bike!!!! Still have to call back TD to get an(unsatisfactory and unfair comparison of rate theory) explanation of why the increase. Seems like a very high percentage for just a year. Anyone have any Insurance agency's I could try>

Sorry to here about your families loss!!!!!!!!! Hope everything works out!!

Congrats from Phantom Wife & I !!!!!

As Carl said I did go to Dover on Fri. Was pretty slow when I got there--seemed like around 40 to 50 bikes then as morning went on more and more started to show up.Got mine and Phantom's t-shirts - walked around to the FEW vendors that showed up. There wasn't that many custom bikes out so didn't take more than a few pictures. Road by Callahans was still littered with sand that was washed ashore the day before. Got pretty bored and wind was pretty strong so headed out along the lake shore road towards Port Rowan and hit hail for a couple klm's then headed north towards Delhi to get a new hat but they were too small. Decided to visit Carl & Marca so headed to Brantford. Hit hail again just past Scotland Ont. which lasted about 2 to 3 klm's. Visited and had a coffee then headed back home as I had to go to work FRI. night for over-time.

sorry to hear about batteries for your bikes! I am still driving every day to work and will continue until we start getting salt on the roads. Will be taking bike in for 55,000klm servicing on Friday.

As always it was great to see you again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope it isn't too long before we see you again.

Just checked other post and I think I might have spelled name wrong!!!! I found his name spelled Kristian not Christian as I thought. My apologies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First is Christian all right ????? I also would like to thank EVERYONE that hosted and contributed to the WNY rally week-end as I had a GREAT time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am already looking forward to next year!! As usual everyone made me feel at home and met a couple new people and got to see many I met before--there and from the International that also made it there this year. Thanks also to Don (XV1100SE) for lending his extra head set cables----Carl(Marcarl) for the lug nut bar in case of a flat on trailer---and Bob(bongobobny) for ordering me a new headset cable and getting it before I got there. The rides were great--everything was done great and barbecue was great! A big thank you to Pioneer Sports for also co-hosting and contributing to the rally also!! Nice meeting Jonas and Christian again--great guys!!!!!!!!!!!! Also had a good work-out with pulling the trailer home with all the hills we had to travel over especially the one with the STOP sign at the bottom of the one hill!!!Worked great!! Met and talked to several fellow riders on the way back home. Might have a few more looking our site up in the future. Nice ride home except for Ben's(Saddlebum) break-down(hope you got it home safe and will have back on road soon.

Glad you made it.Hope it is an easy fix.

Made it home about 1/2 hour ago. Just making sure that Robin knows as she wanted us to say when we made it home.

Sounds good --just going for shower.

Will get the rest of my stuff ready and loaded and pay a couple bills. will be ready later on. Any specific time planned?

Carl-- are you talking today? If so I might wait till then if OK?

Don --thanks for the cables!! Hope to see you there. Will also check weather also.

7 will be fine.

I guess I could. I will try and get everything done early and get some sleep and have wife wake me.

Sounds good Don. Will meet you there.

Both if possible. Which truck stop are you talking about?

didn't see your post before I posted my reply Don. Just in case I leave Thurs is there anyway I could get the cables tomorrow?

I'm in also but will wait for your updates!

Time off has been given so I will be going to WNY Rally.

I am still a maybe on calender but it looks like I will be coming because boss has me off Fri. and Mon. but working on Sat. which is mandatory overtime. So he is working on it and I said I probably won't be at work anyways.

Thank's Bob I will try him.

Do you have his call name?

Was wondering if anyone has an extra set of upper(right angle) and lower J/M 8pin to 5pin cables that I could borrow for my trip to WNY rally so I can use C/B. I have tried to get a replacement set but they wouldn't take Debit/Visa card and by the time I got it straitened out they were out of stock and will take 3-5 weeks to get new stock. Contacted company and they said 5-6 weeks. Anyone have one in Ontario? Still checking other outlets on internet to see if I can get them.
