PS
Sorry for outside link here but I wanted to be sure credit goes where it should for the info (Gruff)

Lots of time (27 days) ... get on it and ride it out there or trailer it if you have concerns riding. Easy deal, drop off old and pick up new!!!!! Kill two birds with one stone!!!!!

Barry & Gwen - Our thoughts are with you as you go through all of this. Just remember that the very worse part is in the past with getting the new kidney. I know all of these extra hurdles were not expected but your both strong enough to over come them all. Keep doing what your doing, keep posit...

Speaking of those clips and buttons, anyone know how much a new set (for two )goes for? thanks Jeff - I have replaced the buttons on Brembo Rotors in the past for about $40-50 per side. Some are easy to replace and others are more difficult (you will NOT have a problem with your mechanical skills/e...

:doh: no keys????????? THERE WERE KEYS WITH THE TRIKE WHEN IT WAS LEFT IN THE GARAGE The ignition key was in the ignition and there was a ring of keys in trunk ... I know every lock on the trike and trailer were locked and unlocked while I was moving it so there is at least one set of keys for ever...

Hi everybody and thank you for such a warm welcome! I am so excited to have my own trike and it is yellow! Yellow is my favorite color ~ Thanks, Barry, for getting it here to Florida :) I hope we can get out for a ride one of these days. Does anybody have a spare set of keys for it? There have to b...

Congrats on the new trike Nancy, it's a great machine! Be sure to keep those keys locked up someplace so "the boys" don't go for a joy ride!!

Don

PS
Tom may have bigger tires on his trike BUT you have better oil in yours Don't let him forget it either

:yourock: Thank you Don! As I haven't mastered photo posting... I owe you several of those Cups of that beverages you and Barry love when you return to PC. Gotta get Nancy more active on the board! Its nice to have a v8 that you can ride in shorts! PS. Nice house Don! Tom - You are welcome my frien...

Not Tom but here are a few when it was with me ... See any pattern??

Condolences to Mike's family and friends. I never met Mike personally but had exchanged a couple e-mails and he seemed like a real nice guy.

Ford Blu Blood - I like you already, you are vet, a Ford guy, you like fast motorcycles, you live in eastern TN (AWESOME ROADS TO RIDE) and you don't know the word quit!!! I also injured my leg and I have other health issues that caused me to buy a trike. I still have a couple two wheelers but some ...

You guys hang in there, there is some brilliant medical doctors and procedures out there. Kim and I wish you both nothing but the best ... POSITIVE ...

Definitely less expensive too!!

Hopefully he will get your tins sprayed just as you are finishing the wiring!!! Your all done with the hard stuff, congrats! Looking forward to you getting it all buttoned up and down the road.

George -

I am sure you already having your bike back together ... if not here is a chart showing general guidelines. Looks like 10-29 ftlb depending on grade of bolt.

Wow, there are some really good deals to be had north of the border. I can't imagine that bike or the 07 will last too long.

I definitely WANT to...really really want to!!!! Only holdup at this point is Gwen's health or more accurately the state of her back. It is 11 weeks since Transplant and her Kidney is 100%. But 5 or 6 weeks ago...lost count now...she wrenched her back in bed. it has been just a nightmare for her th...

Kim and I hope to be back down first week in October. We will be there for rally for sure ...

Barry -

Thanks for the video, I am going to try and post it here for others. Hope that is ok ... I think it sounds pretty damn good!

Questions Don asked: Is the bike FI or carb? Holley Carb Is that a stock exhaust? He had a custom exhaust made to meet noise Bylaw in Edmonton...I have a video if anyone is interested I can email...not sure how to add video here Is it a hot cam zz4? HOT CAM 385hp Does the odometer register miles or...

Barry -

Is the bike FI or carb? Is that a stock exhaust? Is it a hot cam zz4? Does the odometer register miles or kilo? How difficult is it to bring bike back to US, do you need an importer for paperwork? Any speccial inspection on US side or Canada side? Sorry for all the questions ...

Don

Bill -

I also stand by my original answer ... I see no problem if it's side to side movement only. If you have up and down movement then I would go through the expense of replacement ...

Don

Hey Jack, I took some pics with my phone but Im not computer savvy enough to put them here or even on the computer for that matter. If I had a phone number I think I could manage to send them via text, at least I would try. Sorry, but I barely know how to turn this damn computer on, I'm either too ...

Bill - I agree that is a little more play then "usual". Do all the pins look good on the backside? Is it just side to side play or is there up and down play also? If it's side to side I would not worry too much because when the brakes are applied it will squeeze the rotor tight anyway, jus...

Go figure huh?

What are you using for the trans safety override? A simple toggle hidden?

The trike is looking good Jeff, keep on the painter if you want to get it back!!!!
