    I think that company also sells winter air in cans.

    I've been watching this bike on Craigslist for weeks. Price keeps dropping. Is it a good deal? http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/mcy/3186484375.html Not like I need another bike!

    Drove past a blue 1st gen at the intersection of Greenbay and Waukegan roads near thw Waukegan Il airport at about 6:00 tonight. Anyone from the forums?

    I'll make an offer once I know Rick has his links.
  5. Cheesehead in flatland
    Rick, please let me know when you have a set. I don't want to get in the way of your original request.
  6. Cheesehead in flatland
    If there ends up being "extra" sets available, I'd be interested in making a purchase.

    I've had one for years and love it! Actually bought it to tow behind my old VW camper but now I'm looking forward getting a hitch setup on the RSV. Mine looks like the one in the above link but opens from back to front instead of sideways. It's unbelievable how much you can carry in it.

    My advise is to look at things like warranty and support, not gigahertz and gigabytes. Anything you buy today should suffice for a home user surfing the web and writing a few letters. If you can purchase a "commercial or business class pc", HP or other brand, you'll like pay about the same and get much better warranty and support. Most retail outlets don't sell commercial or business computers. CDW (http://www.cdw.com) is a good source.

    Liking my E3's so far...

    Friesman's suggestion is good, rebuild the pc with a new hard drive and then connect the old drive externally to recover files.
  11. Cheesehead in flatland
    Another thing that could be done would be to pull the drive and use an external USB adapter to connect it to another pc. From there, you can recover any files needed. Here is an example of the adapter, http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-USB-2-0-to-IDE-SATA-2-5-3-5-HD-HDD-Adapter-Converter-Cable-/130707755450?pt=US_Drive_Cables_dapters&hash=item1e6eca11ba Only $7 shipped.

    I've used Avast for years, great anti-virus software. That being said, Microsoft now has a very good anti-virus software called Security Essentials. It's also free. Another thing to use is Google Chrome instead of Internet Explorer and add McAfee SiteAdvisor, both are also free. SuperAntiSpyware and MalwareBytes are good for cleaning up if anything gets past the software mentioned above. Both of these offer a free and a "pro" version. Normally the free stuff works well.

    Could it be related to the squelch setting on the CB? What happens if the CB is totally off?
  14. Cheesehead in flatland
    Emailed their tech support and they verified it should work. Might need to try one.
  15. Cheesehead in flatland
    I found this thing on cheapcycleparts.com for about 110 dollars.

    Anyone familar with this gauge and know if anyone that has mounted to a 2nd gen rsv? It seems to cover everything i want, tach, temp and accurate speed.

    No one has mentioned Waze. http://www.waze.com/ A crowd sourced GPS software. It's great! Works on iOS and Android.
  18. Cheesehead in flatland
    Sorry about that, I saw your reply after sending my post.
  19. Cheesehead in flatland
    Thanks for the suggestions. As I said in my original message, I'm just trying to let the Admins know what happened. I did some research and the message is from Google and is legit. The error comes from amnchode.net, not venturerider.org. The admins can look deeper and see how this site is linked to the thread. Attached is screenshot of the "report" about the error.

    I was using Google Chrome when I tried the link from a google search. I since have tried manually typing the URL and still get the same warning. Firefox and IE don't give me the warning.
  21. Cheesehead in flatland
    Just clicked on a link in google to this site, thread #32541 and received the attached malware warning. Don't know if it's legit, just wanted to let the admins know.
  22. Cheesehead in flatland
    Thanks everyone! I did a quick search and saw some for almost $500 new. What is a fair price for a used set with clamps?

    Just received the Signal Dynamics Light Bar and have a wiring question. My RSV already has the LED light/spoiler on the top of the trunk (I think it is an OEM accessory) and I traced the wiring from that light under the seat and up to (or past) the battery. My question is this, I can either strip some insulation on existing wiring under the seat and solder the light bar wiring to it or I could cut the wires and put in a couple spade plugs (and seal things to keep out moisture) to allow easy removal of the trunk if needed. Any advantages to either method? I'm guessing either one would work but want to get the thoughts of those that have a better handle of electrical systems. Thanks!

    The parts I have are number 30 in this picture. The fit inside the front of the muffler before slipping it on the exhaust pipe.
  25. Cheesehead in flatland
    If you're referring to the muffler gasket (looks like a plastic sleeve), I have two I just bought and didn't use. Interested? I could let them go for $25 shipped.
