  1. So do I understand rite. One side will sit down in bead and the other wont go over the hump? I have had car tires the bead lip has a bit more rubber on the in side and it just wont go. Sometimes once the ru-glide or whatever dries it actually gets sticky. I have used baby powder inside tube type tires to keep the tubes from getting pinched.
  2. I have just a 6x12 cargo trailer, but have same concerns. As we use the trailer to haul some boxs and have to work out of also. I was thinking for me I was going to make some sort of nutplate. The e track or similar type track system works well.
  3. I was looking at the brace a bit more prior to our trip to NC. L-5 S-1 is the problem again. Good and bad days. Try to remember to strech exercise prior to getting out of bed. So far the left leg numbness has been gone for 3 months or so. Still have ocasional localized pain, but so far have been able to tuff it out. I had just remembered from years ago lots of bikers wearing kidney belts and thought a bit of extra support on long trips might help. It did years ago, but then I didnt hqve a seat near as comfortable as I do now.
  4. I dunno about your bike, but 100w each =200w total and mine would probably kill the charging system in no time. I'm Not even sure it would charge the battery.
  5. Gasoline, mineral spirits, lacqure thinner. Most any solvent I think. There are some like turpintine that I think are non-petrolum. On second thought I may be off on the mineral spirits. Time to fire up google
  6. I'm with you. It seems more of a PIA than it is worth. It seems I set mine and then a couple weeks later I need to disconnect the battery for some reason or another. Then its months before I reset them. Having the 3 FM x 6 or 6 stations confuses me too. I try to put the ones the wife likes all together and anything else on another block then the 3rd one I use for areas we go to that stations dont come in good here. Pandora works about everywhere, so thats my go to.
  7. I like the "what do you do if it rains?" Daaaa get wet? Heres your AC
  8. If I send you 2 bucks do I get 2 hardleys?
  9. I would have to agree. Certainly didnt work as well as the one I had a lot of years ago. But FM radio in general just dont seem to catch a station as well as it di many years ago. Maybe its other electronic interference and things like that going on now days than say in the 80's
  10. I bought a 6x12. but I didnt care if it was a bit longer.
  11. Dont know if they are all like that, but chances are...... You might try the used market. You would think the TD bar would work but I understand the mount is completely different.
  12. Sorry for post. I kind of knew some of the statement was not 100% correct. But why any kind of pension @ 5yr service for congress and nothing for a GI? They also receive FREE medical care unlike a discharged GI. You can qualify for VA, but they have to have room for you to get in.
  13. A few thoughts from Bobs the oil guy. Another info spot.
  14. Recommend you give them a call or contact thru e-mail and ask their recommendations. I have not changed front springs, but I have changed the fork oil out and went with 10w oil VS whatever is in there from factory. It helped stiffen it up a bit on the dive thing without suffering more rigidity.
  15. Going back quite a few years ago (probably the 80's somewhere) there use to be an "FM antenna booster" I certainly did help those old GM "in the windshield" antennas. I have no idea if they still make anything like that though. Now it look like they are made like this.
  16. Sorry it says to e-mail to 20 people. I dont think I know 20 people to e-mail to. but I think maybe you all can help out. It is a very good question, and I have been asking it since I retired from the USAF, and they take taxes out of every dime of it too. THIS IS A DAMN GOOD QUESTION!!! AND HOW DO WE CHANGE IT?
  17. Still down as far as I can see @ 12pm
  18. Yes I am on the Delphi forums and one of the admins over there lives in Phoenix of someplace like that. Anyways he has removed the lowers and relocated all the "junk" thats hidden. He may beable to help you out. [h=2]TankerHank is his name. Try here[/h]
  19. I have had seat foam in an old car look sort of like that when they have sit in the hot Oklahoma sun. Some of the old cars I tore apart for race cars. But it does look aa bit different.
  20. Personaly no, and I have helped a couple guys look for the passing type light bars on ebay. I have yet to find one of those 50-70 light bars that actually will fit the RSV. A fellow I have talked to on another forum had a Tour Deluxe. He could find the knock off for it on ebay. He said his was a little over a year old and chrome was rusting, which I had heard of other chrome stuff from China.
  21. Looks to me it is showing the ground at the starter motor. The battery grounds at the motor behind the horn sort of. What sort of problem are you experiencing.
  22. I was thinking about mounting maybe off the fork possibly about the height of the fender, maybe off a mount bolt.
  23. Whats Facebook?
  24. Good points both.
  25. Good to hear. Glad your out and riding.
