Yeah Mark that was me. Sorry I missed you. Next time we'll give them some BS. (Blue & Silver) :2funny:I'm still in Galveston this morning trying to decide whether to ride home or not. May wait until at least the rain stops.

I'm going to make one of your wrench parties one of these days.  They sure sound like fun. 

Hey Matt, be careful riding home!  It's kinda cold and soupy up here.  At least it's not freezing.  Yet.

I got my Darkside number - VRCCDS#0237    (Thanks Doc Moose)
Complete is my tool bag. "Do or do not, there is no try"  I would like to say again how cool it was at the wrench party. I found out many 'tricks' about these Fat Ladies. I thought my choke was broken... but these ole girls have a strong resistance to being choked. Little did I know you have to push the choke VERY Hard to get it to engage. The first inch or so of movement is just taking the slack out of the cable. I mean really, I've been reading the Clymer Manual for months and there are things that just don't jump out at you, like checking the u-joint at the spline driver. I guess it would be a boring list to most reading this, but the insite was great for me.

Bruce, been riding the lady for about 9 yrs. now and have never had the bike worked on by anybody but me. If you need help with anything give me a shout and we'll get-her-done.  My I/S  has just over 125k on it and still going strong. cooldude
