    Say it Aint So!

    Dream on Kemosabes. Graytoad said it best a couple of weeks ago when she said she has always thought Xenon Blues were very sexy. The choice is actually very simple...tool around in a car the color of a mating baboons heiny or be a world class chick magnet in a car that shimmers like the...

    Don't forget the Bultaco, Hsqvarna, Yamaha IT 250 and the Yamaha YZ 500 Tex. Had 'em all. That's why I don't walk so well now.

    Two Wheeled Fans?

    Its a Firemist Green with a white vinyl top. 472 ci, all the 70 bells and whistles included. I love to drive it with its huge wheelbase and cruise ship suspension. I'll post some pics when I pull it out of the garage in a couple of weeks. In fact, I think I'll take a few shots of it with the...

    Two Wheeled Fans?

    Hi Tex! My lifetime of bike riding ended with a Goldwing in 2004. A couple of riding partners we had ridden with for years got killed in the mountains of east Tn. With grandkids we decided to hang it up. The only Ducati I ever owned was a 250cc dirt bike in 1966. Loved it but traded it in 68...

    An Update Took my X in today for a code scan. The tech ran the codes and said it is showing that you're running lean on the right bank of cylinders. The solution was very simple...he tightened the intake manifold bolts (which were actually very loose) and the light went off immediately. Most...

    Strange. Very strange

    Al...I tried to PM you and apparently it didn't work. So here goes. There was not a link in your reply so if you can post it as a reply. I searched all of the forums and found very few posts regarding this problem. One I found involving removing the rear wheel and wheel well and replacing a...

    Strange. Very strange

    I hit the switch to open my fuel door this afternoon. After filling when I pushed it shut, the door would not stay closed. I went to the manual and decided it could be fuse #52 in the inside fuse box. When i opened the fuse panel I could not find that fuse. I think it is behind an enclosure...

    Quote of the Day

    And another... 'I changed the horn on my XLR to gunshot sounds. People get out of my way much faster now.' 'You can tell a lot about a woman's mood just by looking at her hands. For instance if they are holding a gun, she's probably angry.' 'I didnt make it to the gym today. That makes five...

    Medical Lecture

    A doctor was addressing a large audience in Tampa . 'The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of...
