Is it outside ? This has all the makings of a PMS mid-winter thread.

I must have passed the test, somebody just handed me an

I think he's looking for pics of mike suggestion about using a saddlebag push button lock .

I'd come help but Im all tied up at the moment

I suggest a nice motel room with mirrored ceilings and a hot tub.

What type of work will you be doing for them? I hope you get your shift of preference .

There's also the option of getting a bike they actually still make parts for .

:rotfl:

Ha !!! guess we were typing a reply at the same time.

What Larry and I did was put some 5/8" spacers ( if I remember correctly)over the rear holes then cut some 1/8" aluminum sheet to fit under the trunk, giving it complete support from the bottom. This allowed us to move the trunk up and back more than whats provided for by the factory locations. Plenty of passenger space now. Maybe Larry got some pics of the setup, I thought I did but can't find them.

Ok, now that I have the new tire mounted up, how do you get all the release compound off the tire ? Or should I not worry about it. What pressure are you running the Michelin Commander II Rear Tire at ?

I also have an '01 I'll have to take a look at those terminals and see if I'm on borrowed time. Great idea you had there.

Seaking, Did the amp improve the sound from the Polks ? Listening to my Polks and the stock speakers on my wifes trike, I have to say the stock speakers sound better to me un-amped. Thanks for the helpful writeup .

Our prayers go out to Gunboat, his family and friends. Although we never met, the loss of any one of our VR family is sad news. R.I.P. Gunboat.

UPS dropped the tire off yesterday, a quick inspection shows a date code of (0213) it doesn't get much fresher than that. I have to give Revzilla.com 2 THUMBS UP for price, speed of delivery and fresh tire stock. I have the wheel off and going to get it mounted up now.

doesn't look big enough to lift an auto

Thanks to everyone who's contributed, everything has been forwarded to Trent, the ball is now in his court, he likes the 88 and is trying to line up some financing to go with the cash he has on hand. Thanks, One and all

Documentation from a trucker you guy's are professionals at creative book/record keeping. :rotfl:

AWESOME DUDE I hope it's a bit closer to home too. You did negotiate in the 2 weeks vacation so you can go to the International in Galena, right

If you would, I'd like a copy of that email. I have an amp sitting here but have been a bit apprehensive about doing the install and your notes along with the tech article may be enough for this electrical dummy. What speakers you using ? I have Polks in all 4 corners.

Good new Jonsey You'll be back to playing rugby in no time Until then, take it easy and be ready.

My cousin's husband is looking for a trike. Has to be a true trike , no outrigger types. He wants to spend in the neighborhood of 10K . If you hear of anything for sale please let me know. Wings, Ventures, Kawasaki's........ NO HD branded trikes.

I just ordered a Michelin Commander II Rear Tire Size: 150/80B16 77H for the front of the trike. Looking forward to trying it out. Bought it from Revzilla.com for $134.17 shipped I found it $1.50 cheaper on amazon but they don't take paypal.
