    I'm back

    I've been wondering how you were doing. Good to hear from you. I'll be looking forward to another one of your M & Es.
  2. I haven't experienced those problems Tom, either at work or at home. Wonder if it might just be something with your server.
  3. Send some our way. We are dry, dry, dry. And HOT!
  4. Congratualtions, Gents. Your selection was complimentary to your contributions here. We all appreciate your efforts.
  5. I got some of those round felt pads with self-adhisive backs, which you can find at Wal-Mart. Place those over the bolt heads.
  6. Landpig - did you say you are NOT happy with the Venoms?
  7. Like you I wondered if mine ever came on, so I let it idle in the driveway and observed. Yes, it came on, but I never heard it. With your engine running, you won't notice the fan noise, but you may notice an increase in heat coming off the engine with the fan going.

    OOPS

    And how does a dentist say "Ooops"? "Rinse".
  9. No snakes in Florida?
  10. Michael, To be correct you would be looking at 6 hundredths and 7 hundredths of a pound per square inch of air pressure, not tenths. You need to do a sanity check when you use the Yamaha manuals to their unit conversions. For instance, they state the front shock can hold from 0 to 50 Kilo Pascals (Kpa), and the conversion given in the shop manual is 0 to .07 pounds per square inch (psi). And the rear shock can hold 0 to 400 Kpa (8 times that of the front) but the conversion is 0 to .06 psi (which is less than the front). So you need to make sure those conversions make sense before you apply them.
  11. Man, now that's what I call subtle!!
  12. If you do as stated, let us know how it worked out for you. (Did it work as advertised?)
  13. You have our thoughts and prayers.
  14. I've never heard my fan come on either, but it does. It is just so quiet that I don't hear it over the engine.
  15. Congratulations!! Next step, start thumbing through those catalogues for chrome goodies.
  16. Sorry Kreg, wife has her graduation exercise that weekend. We will be in Dalllas.
  17. Goose, my manual does not have that information in it. It must read like Boo's. Thanks much for your help clearing that up for me (and perhaps many others).
  18. Thanks, Goose. That clears up that mystery. Now I understand why they sometimes cancel at a stop sign or light. My owners manual makes no mention of this auto-cancel feature, and it seemed intermittent to me. It's a combination of 490' and 15 seconds.
  19. Not sure what you mean, Buddy. I can tell when the signals cancel because of the indicator light on the panel. Have you tried yours to see if the turn signal will cancel with the bike sitting still? Could there be a time-out cancel as well as a distance distance? Or is mine just arbitrary?
  20. But sometimes they cancel while sitting at a stop light, or waiting at a stop sign.
  21. I notice my turn signals sometimes auto-cancel, and sometimes I have to turn them off. How do they work? Do they cancel after a time-out, after leaning into a turn, etc? My owners manual doesn't seem to mention it.
  22. Hope everything works out great, Don. Do you know if they are going to install the 'restore' lens?
  23. Were you able to have success getting air into that shock?
  24. Hipshot, you missed a real nice get-together.
