    Been told that some small engine manfacturers are labeling their small engines with a warning NOT to use E15.

    I could use the 99 RSV seat if it's still available. Would be happy to pay the shipping costs. Thanks Joe

    Yup, Falls under the category "hope for the best but plan for the worst" scenearo...

    Looks like it's gonna track through center of Virginia... +50 mph winds both north and west of center... I'm gonna cut some questionable trees and get gas for the geneators...
  5. CaptainJoe
    Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat, are you implying that it's not because winter blend gas is cheaper to make? Especially in an election year...

    Ooops my bad, no disrespect that RZ500 is fine lookin..... They had a TZ750 two cycle ? Probably was well out of my price range at the time... dang. now that one passed me by. Probably a good thing as at that time, I liked to trash speedo cables....

    First time I've seen a (liquid cooled) RZ350, and it was street legal? I see after discontinuing the 2 cyscl streets in 1980 this one came back for a brief period. It was sold in 84 and 85, then the EPA shut it down as well. My wife sold my RD400 at a yard sle for $400. You gotta watch those women when they get to selling things..

    So it's not only the vest but whats on the bike as well? Wow, I didn't know that.

    Wonder how he'd feel about a Venturerider.org flag on your bike...?
  10. CaptainJoe
    That looks like maybe the seat off of a cafe racer kit.? for the rd350 rd400s
  11. CaptainJoe
    Wow that brings back good memmories. I owned a 1977 RD400 , it had a black seat though and was sort of a burnt orange in color. Only problem I ever had with it was, the speedodometer cable would twist off at about 118 mph. Although to be fair, I believe it only was suppose to go up to 115... LOL Believe EPA shutdown the street legal 2 cycles entirely in 1979.

    So you have decided how your voting? Sure wish I could. Really tiring of the twisting of words by 'Both' parties. Whatever happened to good old fashion honesty? Employment, fuel prices, Electric prices and health care all need to be addressed. Sometimes I feel we're viewed as, sheep in a field...Baaaaaaaah! Maybe I'll take a coin with me, while I'm grazing around... although I don't know where i'd put it... LOL

    Unless my job securtiy depended on it....I'd have taken her up on it.... Note: Depending on the circumstances at home... if I felt it were warrented.. the work is going to come in a distant last every time... So I guess it all depends on the circumstances. Hey we alll screw up occasionally.... Take her out to diner.. after all, she is the most important person in your life, not, your clients.

    Didn't recognize the title, but sure remember the melody! It's truly amazing the paths we follow....

    As big as that is , put the scoot in the back... or, If you don't want to loose one of your bedrooms, buy a trailer...

    I don't do clubs, period. Venturerider.org is a forum, but is actually much more than that. It's a place where people from a variety of walks of life get together and enjoy a common interest...Motorcycling... No "must ride this type of bike" or wear "this vest" or ... well you get it. Been ask quite a few times to join this or that club, but, I don't like crowds, rules, or, even the remotest possibility of breaking the law... I, ride just to ride. Been doing it since I was 16. If I go to the farm and it's not snowing, or, I don't have to take tools, or, something heavy/bulky along , I'm going to ride my bike. There are a few, that I really enjoy travelling with. Each Year we take at least one long distance trip to reward ourselves. Explain it to others?? Hell, I can't even explain it to my wife...

    Ok then, what about 500 cc ringers lactate?

    Like the list. I would also include saline solution(type used for contacts) and a small eye cup. When you get dust or something in your eye, the solution and a cup gets it out in a hurry. You can also wash a injured area with the saline solution.

    All depends on how you look at it.... When Joe went, he probably didn't know for fact certain that his blood could literally boil, or, that he could black out, and be unable to pull his parachute.... As they say ignorance is bliss.... a nicer way of saying that: " what you don't know can't hurt you..." With all the information available today, I'm sure Felix was very familiar with the concequences. I thinking they BOTH have Big Balls! and, Bragging Rights...

    About the only thing I can add to that is, park next to a cart return. Reasoning? One side of your car won't get dinged... Plus.... I take a cart from the rack, so, guess what they are going to hit, if they decide to cut me off on my way into the store... Ohh Yeah... I love it when a plan comes together...
  24. CaptainJoe
