  1. Ordered the R1 calipers for my trike on Saturday, came home yesterday and they were waiting for me on the porch. I thought I was getting the ones with the blue insert (steel pistons), but surprise I got the ones with the gold insert, (alum. pistons). I immediately pulled out the tools and pulled the left caliper off the trike and the R1 slipped right into place. Now I am waiting on the new pads to arrive. The pads on them were still fair, but I decided to go new, dont want to have to work on it twice. Next upgrade will be the SS lines I looked up the price for new ones at BikeBandit and was in shock, the were over $500.00 each, and I got both of them for less than $100.00 shipping included........ :banana:
  2. They announced that he died this evening (Friday). After watching him on Dallas, never could watch I Dream of Jeannie again, kept waiting for him to stab someone in the back on Jeannie. But will miss him on Dallas (TNT), first season, he was his nasty old self.
  3. I ordered a new " ClearView" windshield for the new 08 RSTD. Supposed to be here Friday this week. 2 inch wider, each side, and more lower, wind protection. Will take photos of the conversion, and post, if anybody is interested in that modification for an RSTD. Been waiting about 2 weeks for delivery, no problem, its been raining in Seattle again. Also have Heated grips on the way, so will be busy with modifications next week !!
  4. My Son just called me and said he has no fluid in his transmission? he said it would only do 25 mph said fluid was on the tip of the stick hoping he did not burn up the transmission? waiting for him to call me back and let me know. He dint know where he was at other than being by I-40 so I am waiting for him to call me back he said he would look at his gps and let me know where hes at If I need help I'm hoping someone in AZ can help me out as he is heading back to Camp Pendleton I will post what I find out asap my phone number is in my profile
  5. what I learned is I have a LOT to learn....waited on a # of ppl, at times felt as tho I was at grand central station. But all in all as first days go it was good.Seems every person that called or came in wanted a RANGER (utility vehicle) .. but I'm still waiting on my 1st sell ... lol
  6. I got ambitious after I got home from work today, got the exhaust system back on the bike, and the radiator and cooling system back on, waiting on the throttle cables to arrive. starting to look like a motorcycle again.
  7. A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with those guys? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!" The priest said, "Here comes the green-keeper. Let's have a word with him." He said, "Hello George, what's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?" The green-keeper replied, "Oh, yes. That's a group of blind firemen. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group fell silent for a moment. The priest said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't they play at night?"
  8. If not pg rated I apolagize, but it's pretty funny. Problem with my ear..... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ear Infection... This is so true! They always ask at the doctor's reception why you are there, and you have to answer in front of others what's wrong and sometimes it is embarrassing. There's nothing worse than a Doctor's Receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you, in a room full of other patients. I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this old guy handled it. A 75-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk. The Receptionist said, 'Yes sir, what are you seeing the Doctor for today?' 'There's something wrong with my Penis, he replied. The receptionist became irritated and said, 'You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that.' 'Why not, you asked me what was wrong and I told you,' he said. The Receptionist replied; 'Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the Doctor in private.' The man replied, 'You shouldn't ask people questions in a roomful of strangers if the answer could embarrass anyone.' The man walked out, waited several minutes, and then re-entered. The Receptionist smiled smugly and asked, 'Yes?' 'There's something wrong with my ear,' he stated. The Receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice. 'And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?' 'I can't pee of it,' he replied. The waiting room erupted in laughter. Mess with seniors and you're going to lose! :rotf::rotf:
  9. Well,Santa Clause finally found my home today. Been waiting 4 months on this.
  10. I hung a small corn feeder out back of the camp Sunday. Deer season coming up next week might hunt a few days. The feeder no longer works with the timer so I stopped by evenings after work and hit the manual start button. Monday evening there was three head waiting for corn. This evening there was six head waiting on me. Tomorrow who knows maybe 9 head? I smell steak a cooking.:cool10: It has been several years since I hunted with a gun but I have a high harvest rate with a pickup.

  13. As Alan has never used a GPS, or bothers with the computer at home, he has decided he would feel more comfortable if I had a unit on my bike as well as the one being loaned to us for our touring in the U.S. Better that I have a back up., as I'm towing the trailer, and when he gets in the "riding zone" can forget I'm back there waiting for him to tell me when to turn off! SO......Amazon has the Zumo 660 for $US649.99--is that the best I'll do????????? I can then purchase the aussie maps later.
  14. Anyone else having problems with info being downloaded off the site?? Noticed it this morning a bit and a little this afternoon. I'll go to read a thread and the page mask will appear, and the text takes forever... OK 15-20 secs... to complete. Not having this problem anywhere else. While waiting I even went to my mail reader and downloaded email, came back, and it was still dragging it's heels....
  15. partly sunny and 50F today. Supposed to be in the teens with s**w starting tomarrow. So, i'll be taking the three running bikes alternately out for a run today. I've been expecting the rear tire on the RSV MM to need changing ever since I came back from Potato Creek, but it hasn't quite got there yet. I have a new one waiting to go on.

    HEY GaryN

    Gary, since you are already in the Ozarks just head on down to Big Bend with us...At Marathon they have an RV park waiting on you!
  17. Well, wow, how does one part with ten years of great rides and memories?! A bittersweet moment in my life is about to take place. I am selling my 1999 RSV. It is time for a change. The Mrs. is not too happy, but she knows sometimes you just have to make some changes and move forward. I am flying out to Belton, MO this week to pick up a 2009.... oh god I can't believe I am going to write this.... HD Ultra Classic. Yeah, I know - hard to believe, even for me it is hard to believe, and then ride it back home - 11 hours on the road. The thing is this, I have been waiting, and waiting, and waiting for Yammie to update this bike. I want the modern "stuff" that HD puts on their bikes. I rode one a week ago, it felt smaller than our RSV's, and not quite as "robust", but it was smooth, lighter for "me" (I am small guy), and I liked all the modern gadgetry. Now I did not just get whatever the local Dealer had... I read, researched and looked for what "I" wanted - features and colors scheme. I still think the bikes are a tad over priced. If you want to see The Soon-to-be new ride I still have my 2006 Yam Stratoliner for my tootin round town fun. So let the chastising begin! So if ya know anyone looking for a very loaded, clean, well kept, pristine, 1999 RSV - send em my way! I put an ad here on VROrg and it is listed on CraigsList
  18. I had my right hip replaced August 2nd. I am doing great. My doc has secured my agreement that I'd wait 3 months before getting back on the bike. He seems to think less time than that would be chancy. So I am waiting and we'll look at riding then. My question is for those who've had a hip replaced ... how long post surgery before you were riding again?
  19. We made it home at 12:30 afternoon. 100 miles of rain and wet road but no problems. A great time as always now just waiting for others on the road to chime in safe.
  20. Tooling along I-64 in Southern Indiana near exit 39 and my Venture quit moving forward. Engine still runs, but bike will not move forward. Bought a trailer at tractor supply and found a pickup to tow it the rest of the way to Waynesburg, KY. Im not moved in yet and I have not had a chance to check out the problem, but when the bike is in gear, there is a terrible noise either coming from the middle gear section or the final drive itself. It's so loud that I cannot tell where it's coming from yet. This was done on the side of the interstate waiting on help. Well anywho, I'm in Kentucky now in a motel waiting for some lectricity at the house. Once I get moved and settled in, I'll tear into the bike. 99 Venture with 99,600 miles on it.

    Mom

    Just to let my other family know and to ask for their prayers for her......my mother passed on Monday from a variety of complications. She finally had a heart attack and signed a DNR. She passed several hours later. The day before she had said that she had seen dad waiting for her. Guess I knew this was coming but you never really expect it to happen.......
  22. After waiting 2 months for my OEM Yamaha chrome rails, they came and boy, they were purdy. Trying to put them on was not. The ends of both, where they tapped, were wallowed out. not enough thread to get bolt started. Spent greater part of the the day trying to find a 5mm bolt 2 5/8" long(or millimeter equilivent. Finally got frustrated with the whole ordeal and bought (2)-5 mm nuts and mig welded them to the ends of the rails. Screwed BOLT with nut attached into end of rail first to ensure proper alignment. But I wasn't done yet, I had to drill holes in chrome fittings 1/16th bigger to line up with their origional threads in all 4 end caps and chamfer. Good thing I had a pair of soft jaws for my vise. I dont mind paying for quality but these Yamaha rails are anything but. Even the 45 degree angles? were serrated like someone machined them with a broken end mill. And NO, I was not about to send them back after waiting 2 MONTHS for them.
  23. There wasn't much going on this weekend, so I decided to black out the cylinder covers on my scoot... I plan on scuffing/buffing the edges of the fins, but I'm waiting for the paint to cure first... Of course I had to attach before and after photos.... http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0417001356.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0417001355.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0418001626.jpg http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy164/human4m/0418001626a.jpg
  24. My neighbour across the street had to put away his Bernese Mountain Dog (cancer)..Every Morning Jasper would be sitting there waiting for his morning threat from me:crying::crying: He sure is going to be missed by me
  25. Well at my new job I work with a good o'l boy from Tennessee. He has this drawl to his speech and it got me to thinking (ya I know that could be dangerous). Where ever we live we all have local words or phrases that we use and repeat often. Here is scandihovian country UFTDA is used alot by them there Norskies. It don't really mean anything it is used just to take up space when replying to someone that said somthing shocking. LIKE IN: Did ya hear about Mrs Yohnson her daughter ran off with the baker's son...... REPLY: UFTDA, I didn't know that Sven So do you have any of these local words to share? How about: He ain't worth a lick! What the heck is a lick anyway? So give your word and tell what the heck it means if anything. Yes I am bored Martha. I am sitting here waiting for my daughter and family to drive in from Madison WI. I know Boomer has a few from out in Connecticut way or from Louisiana bayou. Well I am waiting!!!!!!!! :dancefool:
