You need to fix the cause of the problem before you fix anything else so it wont happen again

Got out with the wife today we rode up to Chardon for Geauga County Maple Festival hung there for a few hours then headed over to Blazin Bills in Burton for dinner I heard a lot about the place and had a gift card that I won on a ALR run so we decided used it. On a 1 to 10 scale I rate the place a 4 there were only about 15 people in the place but it still took 50 min to get our burgers our fries did not show up until we were almost done with our burgers. But I can’t complain too much since we got it for free and I was with good company. My wife works tomorrow so I will be on my own just have to decide what direction I want to head in.

I love to mess with Squids its always fun to act like you want to race at a light and then when the light turns green watch them rocket off at 150 throw the intersection like a dumb ass it still makes me laugh every time. I know a lot of my buddies do the same thing. We all started on rice burners so we know better. We were all young and dumb at one time but you do not live to be and old rider if you say that way.

Every dealer I have ever dealt with has taken care of the plates for me They would call when they came in and even put them on when I went to pick them up. They are selling you a bike it should always be part of their customer service.

What kind of oil should I pull the trigger on when I wave or don't wave to other riders while wearing my novelty, "no shroom" helmet, assfull chaps (Not assLESS), fingerless gloves, and SOA vest while simultaneously wondering if others see me as a poseur or a biker considering I don't remember where I put my gas cap at the last stop?

Nothing to say just wanted to bump it back up to the top Ive been out riding as much as I can Need to put some calluses on my ass I have the weekend off then I work the next 16 days after that.

I agree with the above put a couple of hundred miles on the bike and pull the plugs again and clean them That way any leftover loose particles should be out You might be surprised how many are on the plug then I would not worry about it unless they look that way at the next oil change.

The sorry fact is if they want it bad enough they will get it. The best you can do is make them have to work for it.

I let my grand kids drive my speed boat 55+ mph all the time but there is no way in hell they will ever do that To much can happen that you would have no control over or time to react to. My oldest grand kid is 10 and he still has not been on my bike his first ride will be when his feet can touch the foot pegs

There is a GPS phone tracker program I read about that lets you track any cell phone that you have the number too It uses the same system that 911 uses and it works even if the cell tracker on the phone is shut off its cost was a little over $500 but it would even show the phone moving down the road on the map in real time. I will try to find the link for it and post it. It would be great for keeping track of the wife and kids and you would always know were your friends are. Yep that wouldn’t cause any problems would it? It also has a forum you have to sign saying you will not use it for any stalking purposes It was called something like celltracker

It is crude but it works. It getting hard to fine the old mercury switches thanks to the EPA

Ok Now you tell us that

I made my own alarm I took a mercury switch out of an old thermostat and mounted it under the seat so when the bike is on its side stand the mercury is to one side of the tube I run a wire from the battery to one side of the mercury tube with an on /off switch between them. run another wire from the other side of the tube to the horn wire with another switch between them make sure you put the switches out of site after you park your bike you can turn the switches on if someone stands the bike upright the horn will blow. Make sure you turn both switches off before you start the bike.

Disc locks work well on bikes over 500 - 600lbs. Anything lighter than that and 2 guys can be gone with it fast. When I lived in an apartment I chained my Kaw to a guard rail that was in front of my apartment and parked my car in front of it at night. But I have never tried the new disc locks that have alarms

Got to love Ohio weather

Welcome from Ravenna

I told him if he can not get a room he might be able to sleep on the floor of ours but I will have to check with Tim before giving him the ok a 3 way split will save us more money and all the rooms I booked are good for 4 people

Get one of those game cameras for your garage the kind that only takes pictures whenever something walks in front of it and put it where they will not see it you will find out who it is next time they come around if you have kids do not tell them about it.

Here is a Quote from a guy that finally gets it I would like to welcome another Ruffian to the family.

I wish I could make it but I’m the only one working Saturday my weekend turn. With the good weather it will be a busy day and they would not be happy if I took a mental health day. It looks like we may have another Harley rider on the run with us if he can get a few things cleared up in time.

Im out work 2-11 Saturday Have fun

Never Mind GOT CALLED IN TO WORK

I worked for Eaton Corp for 31 years as a production engineer After I left Eaton I went to work for a small mom and pop shop that was 20 years behind in technology I knew I could improve their running processes 10 fold and cut their scrap by ¾ I only stayed there a year before I quit and walked out They would listen to salesman BS and waste money on equipment that would not work right for what they were doing. The person with the most experience at the place only had 7 years if one of the family members wanted something they always got it before we would get something we really needed I think the place is out of business now so I know what it is to have and employer that does not have a clue.

Your Wrong There in nothing worse then and employer that has no clue

Probably a good thing we set the date for June at this rate it may still be snowing in May
