  1. My whine is not tame at all and I can live with it. But the cost of replacing badly designed rear shocks is what boils my blood.
  2. If they took the rotor off and then didn't put it on exactly they way they took it off or didn't torqued correctly it could do that. I did it to myself on the front. Remove the rear wheel. Take the rotor off and spin it 90 degrees. Tighten it back down to the right torque BUT you have to do it in 3 steps. 30% then 60% then 100%. After I did that the pulsating stopped.
  3. Thanks, They work pretty good. Here's the link to the original thread for anyone that wants to see them. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=36265
  4. Hey Dan This is from the link. The link in kinda old but states don't change that quickly http://statejournal.com/story.cfm?func=viewstory&storyid=56 Call and file a complaint with the state Division of Labor. They oversee the contractor's licensing. • Listen to Fran Cook, of the West Virginia Division of Labor, "If the contractor's not licensed, we issue a C & D on site, which means at that moment, he ceases work and he does not go back to work again until such time he comes into compliance with the law." • If the contractor fails to get a license and continues to work, the agency then issues a warrant for the contractor's arrest.

    Hey Mike, where did you get the add on brake light with the side to side wondering ?
  6. Its been a while but for some reason I remember having a real long pair of needle nose made it a little easier when trying to get it back together.
  7. On your 2nd gen right ?
  8. That probably makes you smarter than about 90% of the morons out there with a driver license then... Hey Tom, How long does a pack last before you have to change it ?
  9. Yea, I'll be 55 Friday. Started at about 12. Seems Like I been thinking the same from time to time. I think the ones I worry about the most is turning left in front of me and then stopping dead in my lane. But I keep getting on and smiling till then..
  10. Same here, After a couple of years they will tear but for like eight bucks they are worth it.
  11. If you took your basic training to heart we all learned the same thing. TEAM WORK.It took ALL OF US to get the job done. From the pay clerk to the grunt it took all of us. And it always will. That's what makes the U.S. different. It takes US !I was USAF and that training will guide the way I do things the rest of my life. I remember one time going home on leave and how all my old friends were kinda weird. They hadn't changed one bit. I was the one who had changed. I had learned of something far greater than myself and was defending her. And it don't matter which uniform you had on, I'll still stand with you and defend her today ! Think I heard that in a song somewhere didn't I ? All Gave Some and Some Gave All...
  12. "I am offically old" You just figured that out.... Your kids been telling you that for years..:rotf:Now they just proved it Congrats
  13. Well, At least it didn't start " hi my name is Kapur,, uh, ,I mean Joohn.. How may I heelp you ? But about the same results.
  14. She's been dealing with you for years Dan. That contractor is a piece of cake compared to you. :rotf:
  15. You have a bad connection on the controller head in the fairing. Take the front fairing off and you'll see a bundle of large connectors. About the size of the old AT keyboard connectors. Take the one with the blue band apart several times and then apply some di-electric grease. That should fix it. Might as well do it to all of them while your at it. That's a reusable wire tie you see so don't cut it.
  16. That's the problem with water beds. You wind up drowning in one. Na, had a waterbed for years of and on. Finally went to a sleep number and its great. I could never get a waterbed that was hard enough. Never thought about freezing it hmmm.
  17. If you don't have a speedohealer installed then your about 8% slower then what the speedo is reading. That's why I was using the phrase "corrected speed". When your stock speedo reads 70 your actually only doing about 64.
  18. Now you can venture into your garage and make it out again.:rotf:
  19. Saws are totally unforgiving. We use to (I still do) when framing way back when take skill saws and jam the guards open. The guards slow you down so much. You can never take your mind off them things when they are spinning. Glad it wasn't worse. Good luck with the finger.
  20. This ?
  21. Yea, the chart is right for a corrected speedo. I take 2nd to 63 or so sometimes. I NEVER even think about 5th below 70. At 55 I am still in 3rd lots of times.
  22. DO NOT DRILL. Use a punch. That way you don't drop shavings into the fuel tank and you don't create heat.
  23. Then your bike is fine and is was operator error.
  24. Jason mod is a waste of time. Not enough flow thru a small vacuum port to affect anything really.
  25. I have XM in my truck and Sirius in the Fusion. Had it for a few years now. If you put a lot of hours behind the wheel They become the same as your basic FM stations. Same old songs over and over. Only advantage is you don't have to change stations between cities. But if they keep raising their prices I'm gonna drop them. Its now about 15 a month for each radio after they add all the taxes and fees the the dang bill.
