  1. The other reason i went with Jake Wilson, is dates stamped on tires. The front tire i ordered earlier last year was only 3 months old... Seems they turn over their inventory quickly and keep a fresh stock of tires...
  2. It's too bad about the Texans they really had a shot at it this year... They did beat the Steelers early this season...
  3. The Ravens, Steelers, Patriots, Packers and Falcons are headed into the playoffs AGAIN! My pics are in blue... what say you??? -----1/7/2012----- Bengals/Texans Lions/Saints -----1/8/2012----- Steelers/Broncos Falcons/NYGiants
  4. Don't feel to bad... That's why I double and even triple check before i hit the submit button when I'm buying something online...
  5. I need tthe 15 inch rear tire though and they are $156?? I dont know what i was thinking, my 650 vstar custom 2005 takes a 15 inch also 170/80-15 (77H) Dunlop D404 Rear Motorcycle Tire Fits: 2005 YAMAHA V-Star 650 Custom Part# 1200470005 Our price: $103.99 so theoretically since the first number is width... i could run a 15 inch E3 on my 650...it would just be a little narrower 150 instead of 170?... I ordered from Jake wilson and should get on jan 10 with free shipping... Thanks Joe

  14. Tom , don't worry about ibeing sent to your room... thats where al the "good stuff is"...LOL Plus, it could have been worse...she could have said "go to your room and no Ice cream tonight!":whistling:
  15. I've spent over $120.00 for new name brand L/A's and barely get two seasons out of them (using tenders) before replacing them. Well thats the thing, the owner of the interstate battery shop in Ravenswood, WV said, "all you could really hope for is about 3 years??? "
  16. Talkin politics at work is kinda like peeing into a fan isn't it?
  17. Bought my bike 3/2010 battery was kaput! was an old 4 wheeler battery PO put in to make her run. ok fine put a new OEM battery in for $112 from the stealership, ya I know what I got Went out today and nothing... the dash didnt even light up Put on a charger for about 4 hrs at 10 amps and only enough to turn lights on and the dreaded clicking noise... Went to interstate battery and they confirmed it was DOA $77 later I had a new battery. Owner said I should buy one of his battery tenders for $25 and it would turn off and on topping the battery off. Somehing about .075 millamps very slow charge. Said if I did that every time I parked it, that it would extend the life of the battery. Have always been a firm believer in you get what you pay for so.... is a battery tender brand so much better than the ones for $12 or the HF $7 centurion?
  18. I'm thinking with the alert from the baby monitor and my 9 mm .... I' m still gonna retain my bike regardless of how it turns out for the Perp...
  19. I find that a baby monitor and a ruger 9mm works pretty good as well:whistling:
  20. Quite possibly the petcock or line is leaking spray it with foot powder. Its almost impossible to see wet gas even with a strong light. if it's coming out your overlflows(puddle on floor) you've either have a stuck float or dirt in between the float needle valve and seat or if it's comming out of carbs or lines(puddles on transmission)" try spray on foot powder and a trouble light with a 100 watt bulb? spray around carb bases and lines. or if it's going into your tranny... Make sure you check your engine oil sight glass and open filler cap and check. this would indicate a stuck float or dirt in between the floats needle valve and seat and clogged or pinched overflow line.
  21. I'm assume the first gens have both an ignition lock and padlock lugs? As heavy as these bilkes are, if you utilize both it's not very likely that it will come up missing. If your afraid of someone messing with it while you are traveling, some very good advice was offered by one of our members. Throw a battery powered baby monitor in the trunk.... Then you'll sleep like a baby...
  22. Jeff, Your dad and family will be in Pennys and my prayers. The good lord knows whats best for him.
  23. Dang it! I'm never gonna live that one down...
  24. With the warm temps there will be a lot of bikes on the road this weekend. http://www.weather.com/maps/activity/travel/usweatherday3_large.html Especially Saturday. If your traveling try to get to your destination before 6pm. Quite a few like to start drinking early. Be safe... Happy New Years!
