Okay, you guys are really the ones that are in charge. At least we'd let you think that. We also prefer that you run things... like the lawnmower the pool cleaner vacuum cleaner

Rule number 1 : if she happy you ain't happy

OK. Remember, you promoted me to "Master DragonSlayer" like you!

Now I feel better! I actually woke up thinking about this thread

I'll second that!

I don't know if reading directions is a woman thing. But asking directions certainly is

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the recognition and compliments. Did no one see the humor in my last big post? I certainly hope I didn't offend anyone with my "Chainsaw" responses especially Bob. You know what they say "Political correctness is out of control"

​Reasoning with a man is like eating soup with a fork!

I was really only referring to reading as a method for finding solutions and gaining knowledge. You know..."When all else fails, get a bigger hammer".. no wait a minute... "When all else fails read the directions!"

Since I may be the only " ​Chainsaw" of the bunch I think I'll chime in... right here! (By the way "Hi! Bob. Nice to hear from ya!) I think what we would find if we were to delve into the Theory of Color is that Magenta and Cyan (along with Red Oxide and Yellow Oxide) are Tertiary colors; that's all of those other colors that are not red, blue, yellow, orange, purple and green) Cyan primarily consists of blue and green, magenta is red and blue. The Theory of Color remains constant throughout nature. However, we are not able to make somethings the same way that nature did. Therefore, printers, painters, photographers and PhDs (That would be Professional hair Dressers) (did ya get it!?) ( Ha, Ha, Ha!) need to reproduce colors that occur naturally but are limited by "Mans' abilities. So we have extrapolated the Theory of Color for practical use in replicating some colors. This is how I understood it when I studied color but I could be wrong. Lovesick Puppies...er, eh... love sick-puppies! Ha, Ha, Ha! No, but I do have bit of a mechanical background in the Navy '75-'81. AME1 Aviation Structural Mechanic, Egress First Class E6 (Survival and Environmental) that's Ejection seats, Liquid Oxygen, Air to Air cooling/heating, Cabin Pressurization, Anti-G, Canopy De-icing and Rain Removal. Mostly it's a bunch of mechanics, pneumatics, cryogenics and some ballistics and probably a few things I've forgotten about. (And maybe a few I'd like to forget about!) Bootcamp in Orlando, Schools in Millington, TN, Stationed at Nas Key West, NAS Jacksonville, NAS Pensacola Now I refinish, reface, refurbish and redesign kitchens and kitchen cabinets... and people follow me around and give me money to do theirs'. My time in the navy served me well and I can honestly say that the most important thing they taught me in the Navy was to read... not how to read...just simply to read... Oh yeah! I was a Hair Dresser and Hair Colorist for a few years. I thought it would be more fun but after a few years I found myself back in the kitchen. (A "Chainsaw's" place is in the kitchen)

Try to prevent the fork oil from getting on the brake pads. It will ruin the pads and most people feel it's best to replace them because it is nearly impossible to get oil out of the pads. Someone on here may have a method. Better safe than sorry. Turn the front wheel one way or the other might help

Hey now!

The materials are all on order

Excellent website, good explanation.

Murphy's Law seems be pretty much universal also!

The "Theory of Color", like "Pascal's Law" and "Ohm' Law" is a "Law of Physics". It is constant throughout the universe. The attribute of color within a substance and it's natural "Color Formula" is the same in flowers, vegetation and animal life, elements and alloys, compounds and formulations, paint, food-coloring and hair-color... everything. There are only 3 colors; Red, Blue and Yellow. All others are Secondary or Tertiary. Secondary colors are equal parts of 2 of the primary colors. They of course are orange, violet and green. Everything else is tertiary. White is the presence of all color and reflects light. Black is the absence of all color and absorbs light. Light reflectance is measurable. A medium such as paint or hair-color will have it's individual properties that cause it's base to respond to colorants based on the colorant's ability to deliver (strength) and the base's ability to accept/respond. Here is a site that seems to give a pretty decent description. http://www.colormatters.com/color-and-design/basic-color-theory (I was a hairdresser and hair colorist)

When Dingy was doing the TCIs he provided software for the 83-89 and software for the 90-93. I have the files if you need them.

Check out this thread. It might help. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?42017-1983-first-gen-HID-installation&p=399353#post399353

Simple... on the back of the cmu simply ground out the W/B (White/Black) wire. The screen shot below is from the 83 Simplified Diagram.

I am working on an order for the materials to make a limited production of a dozen sets. I will likely place the material order tomorrow. I'm designing them as 4 awg cable/harness complete with the main positive wire to the main fuse connector and include the the frame ground w/connector as well as as an auxiliary frame ground (2 ground wires) besides the negative cable. The plan is to literally be "Plug n Play" with the lower connectors sealed, marine, waterproof. All of the connectors tinned copper and thick wall marine grade heat shrink with adhesive. My intent is provide a once and for all solution to the ageing cables on the first gens using the finest materials. Cross your fingers! They still must materialize before they will be available!

A young fellow around 6 years old asked his daddy "Where did I come from?". Overwhelmed by the question at hand, Daddy then does his best to explain the "Birds and the Bees" in a manner that might be understood by his 6 year old son. After which he felt like his explaination was a success and asked "Now do you understand where you came from?" Appearing a bit perplexed his son said "Not Really. Billy said he came from New York City"

Yeah that's probly right as long as you. 1. Don't try to do anything involving your knees 2. Don't try to focus your eyes 3. Don't try to remember

This is technically referred to as "Birthday Disease".

I ran into the same kind of thing when I updated an XP system to Win 7. Sometimes the manufacturer of some of the hardware doesn't write new drivers for some of the components because they are getting old. It sounds like a Bluetooth adapter is your easiest option. I'm not sure which one is best. If you need it right away Office Depot can probably help and there is usually someone working there that will be knowledgeable about the various ones they have. Otherwise look on Amazon and read the reviews.

What version of Windows are you using? You should be able to find a solution on Google. Search for "turn on bluetooth windows (your version)" That's what I'm going to do to find your answer if you post your Windows version.
