  1. Dang you @cowpucyou Lop eared fur-less wabbit. When did you sneak back in here. Turn my back on the site for a couple days and the trouble makers just sneak right back in again Now look since you is here and there aint nuthin more can be done about it. A may as well hep ya with ya weed er grass issue (iPSSSST it is just gass right...right) Ok forget all the advise ya got so far. The fact is we all know grass hates to grow were ya want it and prefers to grow were ya don't want it, like in drive cracks an such. Ya follern me so far good Cuss I can slow down if'n ya wants me to. So based on what we already knows the answer is simple. Alls ya gots to do is remove all the cracks in the ashphalt in the drive way and lay em all out spread out like a bit on the bald spots. before ya knows it them bald spots will just be coverd in grass. Course then ya be cursin caus ya gots all that there grass to cut but ya cna't has it boat ways ya know
  2. Yeh for some reason it had developed an infinity for "U" turns and riding it was a little like trying to keep a miss-trained horses nose out of the grass while riding it. Hey Carl you can count to two now ......Awsome
  3. Well if as you say your still a smart A$$ ....and having already been here....You already know your a an unfit fit
  4. We have a lot of spyder riders in the club now and as always it is as much about the people as it is about the machine. I would not be surprised if a tech section on the spyder gets added to the tech talk section. There is already a gold wing section added. so in other words welcome home
  5. I rode Carls for a bit and found it was more along the lines of riding a snowmobile than a motorcycle (still fun though) Just make sure no one sees you putting your feet down at the traffic lights. took me about four lights to realize it was not required ....
  6. Just don't send them North of the CanAm border. We didn't mind the opossum migration or some of the other critters that migrated north. But please please please don't send us your fire ants.
  7. Trust me you will not regret it. This is more than just a very knowledgeable forum. But also has become a place were friendships have formed both on line and eventually face to face. Meet and greats are or have been frequent and hands on help depending on distance is very common.
  8. Is it just the plastic rotating part you need. If so I may have an extra one. PM me your address if that is the case and I will mail it to you.
  9. An old pair of Glasses
  10. That is what I ended up doing with mine some years back and it is still working fine
  11. I still have not been out this year and only once last year which resulted in a bad leg injury last year after getting cut off by a friend who I was riding with. and knee issues this year plus still need to finish repairing bike from the accident. The knee issues had nothing to do with the accident but the leg injury developed into a very serious infection resulting in cellulitis. The whole leg swelled up and turned blue and later they had to cut out some flesh that went dead. I then spent the summer on antibiotic IV's followed by vacuum therapy which helped the flesh to grow and somewhat fill the excavation site. It was dull and boring summer after that but On a good note they saved the leg so that is good.
  12. I am going to play it safe by staying out of this conversation
  13. If it has cruise control make sure the transition unit were all the cable converge is not hanging up or incorrectly adjusted.

  16. Time to dig out the bible of justifications and excuses and pick out a good one. Make that three just in case the 1st two don't cut it
  17. If you happen to be out ridding and spot a bike with a trailer it it just may be @sleepy2. I am not even sure I have seen him without one. Only time I pulled one was when I bought the bike. I didn't even know one was included with the bike until we closed the deal and I was about to leave. I was ridding home in a thunderstorm and totally forgot it was behind me until I hit a dip in the road. The trailer bounce and the spare tire laying loose inside the metal box made such a noise It startled me and I thought I was about to get my hams roasted by a lightening bolt. Like I said I totally forgot it was back there until that moment.
  18. I work afternoons so cannot get on during the week but will try on the weekend.
  19. Basiclly it looks like you have the pairs synced up ok You just need to sync the left pair with the right pair. Sequence is not as important as it seems, to simplify, there are three screws involved 1 on the left and 2 on the right and they sit between the carbs set in and slightly below the diaphragm covers. They control the external linkage that connects the carbs together. So starting on the left adjust that screw until both carbs on the left are in sync, at this point ignore the right pair. Next move to the right side you will now see the 2 were on the left there is only 1. adjust the front screw until the the two carbs on the right side are in sync with each other, ignoring the left pair (by your video this is were you are at now ). Finally using the back screw on the right side adjust until the left pair is in sync with the right pair. You may have to repeat the sequence more than once but stick to the sequence you will eventually get there if the carbs are in proper condition. P/S during the process try to maintain idle speed between 900 to 1000 rpm. The adjusting screw for this is a small knob between the the left carbs. Once you have them set burp the throttle a couple times than recheck.
