  1. Who makes that .44 hand cannon? Be good to have for a backup diversion shot in the dark for shock and awl.....
  2. Photos need to be turned 90* to pass the test. Quality is excellent orientation is terrible.
  3. When I'm threatened with a 2 ton vehicle I will also take drastic measures like slinging a couple steel ball bearings. If that don't wake them up Rosko can punch a hole in their front tire 9mm size.
  4. Oh Carl, my apologies didn't realize you were the Driving Instructor might consider retiring from that area of expertise.
  5. Hire a new Driver Training Instructor.
  6. Been following your progress from start go looking forward too flight date. I'm an old combat string flyer from days gone by Mcoy .049 and bigger 35 engines. Build and repair them all week then crash with your buddies on Sunday afternoons. Kept us out of serious trouble in our teens and our minds occupied. You've taken moldel plane building to much higher echelon than we could have dream about. Let us know when to look up.
  7. When are you going too, "Let Her Rip Tattor Chip". Hope you got a fast camera operator and a good search crew at hand.
  8. This home owner is definitely against guns. My palms my,face cheek, and the inside and outside of my leg for distance control. What ever it takes to stop a threat.
  9. I think it would have been better if he did a wheelie at the apex heck it's a trail bike. That's just a ride across a whooped to do.
  10. My remedy for occasional back pain brought on by me over lifting something that needed lifted with a hoist. I usually hobble to the boat dock grab an overhead horizontal beam and hang there for a few minutes. After a few trips to the boat dock and a couple drinks of Jim Beam the pain is usually subsided. Works for me and the buddy who gave this remedy an old Moto cross racer.
  11. If the wife and I can't stuff in two saddle bags and a tour box we either stay at home or take a car. With the Triumph it has to be the saddle bags--- which we have yet to try.
  12. Been riding M/C for close to 50 years and had Harley's for 25 of those years without a Pickup Truck. Never haul a bike when you can ride.
  13. This Government sent 58,000 young men to their death to boost US economy under the device of fighting Communism. But yet we had a country 90 miles from Florida that was under Communism control Cuba.
  14. Well heck, by the time Winter over we'll have your bike problems solved. All you'll have to do is throw the cover off that bike fix a couple issues and ride it like you stole it. Now aren't you glad you spent that twelve bucks for all this good poop.
  15. Cowpuc I believe your using an old proven Harley Shovelhead remedy there by beveling gears. Really made them Shovelhead transmissions change a lot smoother especially top off with a can of STP oil treatment. I would suggest just beveling one gear and leave the mate straight cut to break the sound transfer. Also stress relieve that clutch basket.
  16. Oh, by the way very nice Yamaha you have there!!!!!
  17. I had a 06 Venture with the "Clutch Whine"--- Everybody got their on idea for the cause and remedy for the whine. So here is mine: Cause clutch basket had machining stress induced during manufacturing and wasn't stressed relieved at completion. My reason for this it has a harmonic sound much like a tuning fork. My intended cure was to remove the clutch basket and bead blast it to stress relieve it. But instead I traded it on another bike which is also long gone. Some have had good luck on changing to another basket if it were me I would take it out tap lightly with a screw driver if it rings a note stress relieve it by bead blasting and see if it whines then.
  18. Didn't make to Woodstock the US government signed me up In this organization called the Army. Kinda missed out on a few things for a couple years there. Don't really regret being apart of their organization called the Army. Learned some good camping and hunting skills that I fall back on from time to time. Did miss out on some of that free love that was going on during that era though. Just wish 58,000 others were here with me.
  19. :thumbsup2:k:thumbsup2: Best all round operating program :thumbsup2:ever come from Microsoft.
  20. Go under "Community" and look Carbon One up under member list and PM him a note. Also, stay a while with us and learn more about your Yamaha. We are just a bunch of young and old geezers full of essential and nonessential facts.
  21. I put these on 06 Venture wife really liked being able to change her riding position in the long haul. They were a little expensive which required a custom mounting bracket I had fabricated out of aluminum.
  22. Since there is only two of them too look at it don't take much time to do the check. Oh if I were you I'd buy a couple lottery tickets.
  23. Experience is an enlightening and enjoyable process. Just don't let it get you down.
