  1. Darn you Jeff! Turn up the power!!!!... we're getting a little bit of the blow-by sprinkling down on us, your ruining a perfect riding day [emoji20] Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

  3. Well done on the 40 year milestone. We are celebrating the same on the 29th. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  4. My '01 was sagging and diving upon brake application, it also always wanted to track to the outside of any sharp curve. The following cured all of this. Another option is Sonic Springs. They are a straight rate spring, I installed the 1.2 rate springs, along with going to 15W fork oil, new bushings and seals. Made for a much better handling bike.
  5. He was talking about this strange American he met while riding in the north of America. He goes on to say He met a fellow that goes by the name "CowPuc", a strange sort of biker that tells TALL tales of adventure riding in north america, Puc was a lucky man to have such a lovely lady as his riding companion, and was sure she'd been kidnapped by the crazy man. he then goes on to talk about his ride and a few places he'd been.

  7. Jealousy will get ya nowhere you old hillbilly [emoji12]... No payments, thats why I bought used. No more flea bag motels either. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  8. Yes it is. Cummins 350 ISC. The coach is a 2002 Newmar Dutch Star 4097. We looked at probably 30 coaches before buying this low miles, gently used motorhome. Spent it's life stored in a climate controlled garage when not on the road. We looked at much newer ones that were not this clean. Barely any rust on the chassis or in the engine bay. The interior looks almost new. We considered going the 5th wheel route but it would have taken a much more $ to buy a truck & trailer. Plus we'd have had to buy a toy hauler to bring the bikes along, or pull a triple. The only toyhauler floor plans we liked were WAY out of our budget. Future plan is to pull an enclosed trailer with a 2 seater convertible and 1 bike. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  9. Imagine my surprise when I found that thing in the map pocket! Don't worry Tippy, I'll still give your camper some luvin too! There's time for both Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  10. +1 on having it removed. They removed all the hardware in my ankle after 6 years. Felt much better. My better half has still got the plate and screws in her ankle 20 years later and it's been sensitive to the touch for at least 10 years. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  11. I'd help but do not have the tools needed. CarbonOne always helped me with that. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  12. No, the one in PA was pretty beat up. Found this one in Buffalo, NY. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  13. I look forward to the first border crossing, at least I'll have a place to sleep while they do their thing. There is sure to be a whole lot of shinanagans occuring in that center isle! Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  14. Puc, have you forgotten ! That's why we bought the trike, it has an extra traction wheel for more towing power. [emoji123] Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  15. Our first trip in it will be to your state of NC to see our grand children and their new home.

  17. Picked up this gem a few days ago. It's a 2002 Newmar Dutch Star . Turned 44k miles on the ride home. Cleaner than a 4 year old car! If anyone has unused rv supplies such a 50A shore power cord, surge protector, rv gps let's talk. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  18. Happy Birthday Evan, hope it's a great one. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  19. If it were me, I'd be looking for a 444 lever action rifle, lots of powder behind that slug to bust brush. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  20. Not your fault Leo, no worries. I just wanted to let others not to expect the S5. Ordered it Friday and it was at my door this afternoon. Just got back from a test ride and it's a big improvement over the HID. I still need to tweek the adjustments, beam is a bit high on the left so I need to pull the bulb and clock it a little CCW. I think once it's dialed in it will be a nice upgrade. Hope it lasts. Heres a few pic, tried to show clearance of fan. Plenty room. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  21. They do look to be well made. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  22. The LED headlights came today, I ordered them from Searchwellness.com link that Leo posted. They advertised the Broview S5 as in stock. Today the package arrived and it is the S7, not the advertised S5. So if you are wanting the S5 Do Not order from them. Since I have tĺphese I'm going to try it out, I'll let everyone know how it fits and works. Here is what it looks like. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
  23. I'd have gone that route except I did not want to have to cut up the stock headlamp assembly. I bought and installed the Xprite LED passing lamps and am waiting on delivery of the Broview S5 LED bulb. I installed the Xprite's last night , I had to grind about 3/16" off the yamaha passing lamp edge to get enough of the trim ring to grip the Yamaha passing lamp bucket. The Xprite bezel was just a bit to thick with the Yamaha light visor to get the trime ring past the emboss on the light bucket. I am happy with the increased light output. Had to make 3 adjustments to the aim and may do it again. Could Yamaha have made it any more difficult to adjust the passing lamps
  24. Thanks Leo, just ordered one up from them, hope they really do have them in stock.
