Robin owns a 2012 Sol, never had any problems with it. except the gas mileage was misstated by Kia on this model and several others. Says we should get 35 mpg highway. we maybe get 30-31 mpg. No problem though, Kia fix the problem by reimbursing us for the difference. So every year we own the car we receive between $500.00 to $600.00. It is based on miles driven.

get rid of the roof and open it up like a motorcycle and that thing would be cool.

Surgery is over. they removed two small tumors. Now we go back to 3 month check ups and hope and pray they don't come back. now it's time to get away for a little bit. can't wait to hit the beach with one of those tropical drinks with the little umbrella's.

Every so often life will throw you a curve. This last month has been tense to say the least. Today RockinRobin will have a couple of small tumors removed. Just an in and out surgery. We have been through this more then a few times, But it still sucks! with that being said, we are taking a break next week in Fort Myers Beach. Flying down on the 4th, back on the 9th. Wish we could take the trike but it won't fit in the planes carry on over head. Just hanging around the beach and seeing what SW Florida has to offer should be a nice break from reality.

Have you met that BIG TOM guy?....What a jerk!

What the Heck were you thinking???!!!! Get out while you still can!

Take 2 shots of SEA FOAM And call me in the morning. Will fix anything. Oh, and for everything else:essen_018:

So the only issues the 99's have, is the cracked trunk mounts and the antenna's. everything else applies to the 99 through the 2013. Except some 07's had a head bolt torque problem. All in all it is one of the best bikes on the road. Some of our members have well over 100000 trouble free miles on there bikes.

All bike have minor issues. I'm sure some folks here will start listing all the know problems of both the 1st and 2nd gen. Just remember, Every 1st gen and RSV does not have every one of these issues. Most of us have had very few if any problems with our bikes. And then there are a few of us that have had more then our share of problems, but would not trade our bike for anything.

And what issues did the 99 have?

Slow down, don't blow a gasket. Nothing wrong with your motor. This is common. As has already been stated, you probably have to much oil in the crank case. Next oil change just make sure you stop filling when you show half a sight glass. Problem solved.

Ride for this weekend is canceled. Lets try again next year.

Looks like everyone is doing there own thing this weekend. Guess we'll try again next year. Happy riding everyone.

Jonesy just emailed me, said he may come out for the ride on Saturday. If so then since he is riding all the way from conn. anyone who wants to hook up, we will meet Saturday Morning 11am at my house in Romulus and ride Seneca lake with a stop in Watkins glen and the windmill. then your on your own.

When and where?

Yea, and the sun got in your eyes and you tripped over a rock. Can you find anymore excuse's to say away from Robin:crackup:

Good answer Tom. Evade the Question. Or are you afraid to meet up with Robin:rotfl:

For some reason I can't fathom, Rockinrobin wants to hook up with you guys for a ride, so give us a shout out and let us know what and where. Maybe start out in Avon and head south from there or what ever. We could meet at Peppermints restaurant for breakfast and go from there. Anyone know any good roads out that way?

Now that's funny! That's the same troop that does the renaissance fair up here in Sterling NY every summer. Probably been to it half a dozen times. It is a real blast!

Anything south of pa. is south for us

Biltmore is on the list. Also little Switzerland. Based on what is happening with the weather across the country right now, it looks like it will be a last minute decision weather we do the Parkway or head somewhere else. we will have 7 days Vacation to burn up. Right now the best weather seems to be right here.

Thanks Joe. Looks like the odds are in our favor for good weather. But we all know how things can turn to crap when it comes to best laid plans.

I'm thinking we will do the southern section of the parkway. Do they get snow there early Nov.? I'm hoping this warm spell we're having will last till then. If not then we may have to change our plans.

Right now, she's at work....at least I think she's at work. She did say something about diving out to western NY:think:

That would be great. We are hoping to hook up with some of the members while we are in the area.
