    Do you...

    My issue with GPS is I was part of the testing back when it first came out and there are significant limitations and it is still a military system with an aging infrastructure plus half the fun is just getting lost. I always have a map backup.
  4. Anyone willing to do it around Memphis?
  5. I was almost afarid to open this that there might have been a picture of Bob in the shower.
  6. I am not a big fan of pinstripping but I really like that.
  7. Could be your TCI, sure one of the 1st Gen guru's will chime in been too long since I worked on it. Do you have an upgraded fuse block?
  8. Looks like a blast wish I could have went
  9. Did you ask them to join VR.org?
  10. Glad you are here to tell about it and hope you are out riding soon.
  11. Rick depends on the state one of my bikes has a salvage title and it is insured through the company that had it totalled.
  12. All of the ones I have checked into want it to be an antique or a custom, think I will check around a little more. Interested on how this goes.
  13. Sharp looking bike, you could always go get some ice cream there is a place in Cape Gireadeau Mo called Andy's that has awesome frozen custard.
  14. I left mine in ACC overnight and it still cranked right up, battery is several years old.
  15. Can't have the ice cream part of the reason I am in the shape I am. I had a small circulatory issue of my head that caused damage to the muscles and nerves in my left eye so I now have double vision doc says I may see improvement anywhere from 6 weeks to 3 months if it is not permanent.
  16. Unless you can find a member willing to rent you one
  17. This place rents other brands too but still not cheap. http://www.eaglerider.com/ This place gets good reviews http://www.racyrentals.com/Los_Angeles_Rentals.html
  18. Well it looks like I am going to be sidelined at least 3 months or more so I am thinking I should do some serious maintenance on the bikes. So here is what I am thinking: Do the valve check, both bikes are way over due Check the clutches in both bikes maybe go ahead and upgrade the springs Check and adjust steering head bearings Change and Bleed Clutch and Brakes Flush cooling systems Check all the hoses and rubber Change oil in one just did the other Set the other one up to tow a trailer also Finish the solo mod on the one and paint it Lube everything that should be lubed. Any other ideas?
  19. Well come to find out the double vision is not related to the kidney stones or the meds, seems like I had a small circulatory event that has damaged some nerves and muscles in my left eye. Doc said he is pretty sure i will recover in about 3 months but there is the possibility it is permanent. Guess time will tell but in the mean time I have two RSV's and a new to me trailer I cannot use. I think I could use some of that vodka about now. Oh and if you are a diabetic and have high blood pressure listen to what your doc says and crap like this may be prevented.
  20. Prayers sent and hope for a quick recovery.
  21. Here is an article that may be what your talking about. http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/325056
  22. Prayers to the family and friends.
  23. Went and saw a different doc today and she is more concerned with finding out what is causing my double vison right now since I am not in pain have no fever or infection , she does not belive it is a reaction to the meds so I had an MRI tonight and an ophthalmologist appointment tomorrow once she gets the results and determines if it is anything major or not she will address the kidney stone.
  24. Can you tell if the valve stem core on the shock is ok? See if the center is pushed in if it is its probably broke and you should be able to put a new one in. If all that is broke is your hand pump you can run with no air just be a harder ride till you get a new one. If you have an air compressor you can turn the regulator all the way down to 20 or 30 pounds and fill it that way also. http://inspectapedia.com/water/Water_Tank_Air_Valve015-DFs.jpg
  25. That's how I got the infection it was backing every thing up. Been 4 days since I stopped taking the meds and I am still seeing double, this being permanent would be a bad thing. Definitely seeing a new doc Monday.
