Right click on the photo and select "save as" to a file on your computer. Then you can select them from your file and print them.

:smilie_happy: Thank you for the info on the pictures. I had my brother in law up from Ohio for the wedding and he did all the stuf to print it. I printed it out and it really opened up my eyesto what I need to do. Again thank you a lot for all the help. I suppose that is why you are the # 1 man on this site. :moped:

 

[slabghost]

Thanks for the compliment Happy to have been of help. #1 guy to you is high praise indeed.

:clapping: I'm just telling it like it is. Just look at the posts you have made and look at mine. They say that you can't teach an old dog new tricks, But look at me . I can peck out something that I am having trouble with on the computer that I just learned to use a couple years ago, and rec. info on how to fix it. Not bad for a 73 year old guy. Also I have learned how to hopefully fix the electric problem I am having.
I have been real busy since I got back from vaca. We have found an apartment in Huntington, Wva. and will be mooving before the end of the month. :moped:

 

[slabghost]

Sweet that's not too far from me. Maybe we can meet sometime. I work up in the panhandle in Weirton.

Hi to all. We just got mooved into our apt in Huntington, W Va. Things are all in a mess. It took 3 weeks to get our furniture. And we still are not completely in yet. THINGS WER SCRATCHED UP PRETTY BAD. A glas table was scratched uo in 3 or 4 places. computer is still not hooked up properly. I haven't had time to look at the bike yet
That is the least of the problems. From all the lifting and walking and standing my leg and knees are so swolen that I can't bend them enough to get on the bike. :moped: :thanks:

 

[backlander]

Oh man, I dislike moving for all the same reasons.

 

[joedrum]

yuk moving yuk

Hey JOEDRUM
Have you ever hauled a bike 900 miles in the back of a P U? I just did and believe me it was no fun,especially when it came to the big hills ( I can say WE now) have here in WVa. I didn't have any trouble with them, but boy did the tranny go up and down a lot. I thought t was coming apart on a couple ocasions.
I haven't had any time to look at the bike since we got here. It took 3 weeks for the furniture to get here , and now we are trying to put things in place. My wife and I bought some DEER feed for the DEER that come up to the door.

Talk to you soon

Well I haven't had time to even look at the bike since I arrived in Huntington W Va. I still have to do the wiring ,to brighten up the headlight. I have been in touch with some of the club riders here and have been invited to go for a ride this weekend. I haven't had time to work on the bike so I suppose that is OUT.
Oh well maby soon.

 

[sunnyl]

:Awe: Well I did get a chance to look at the bike for a fiew minutes last week. and I discovered that I had a couple hair line cracks in the side wall on the rear tire. Now it seems as though I hsve to get a new tire for the rear. It has plenty of rubber on it . i gues I shouldn't complain it has been on the bike for about 6 years, and probably only has 3000 miles on it, if that. the tire on it is an avenger MT-85-H-17. . I suppose that is what the conversion from 4.50 17 is.j

 

[sunnyl]

:clapping: Well I finally picked up a tir for the bike. I picked up a 130/90v/17 Shinko 230 rear tireI don't think I will put it on till the spring, just because I dont want it to get hard over the winter. I hope this tire fits th rear of the bike, with no modifications.I gues I will find out in the spring. :moped:

 

[sunnyl]

Well I had the tire mounted on the rim,but the guy didn't balance it. He left the old led balancers on the rim and said it should be OK. If it isn't to let all the air out of the tire and purchase some wheel balancer in a liquid form and install the whole bottle in the wheel and that should take care of it.
\I have never used this stuf befoeer and dont know if it works on not, but I will try it. The temperature is in th 80's this week so I will have to get to it.

 

[backlander]

In all my experience with tires I have never heard of leaving the old lead weights on and it being alright sunnyl :nea: . I've never used a liquid tire balance solution either so don't know what to say about that stuff, never even heard of it :headscratch: . If it were mine to do, I would remove the old weights, and get some Dynabeads which come highly recommended from others on this site and use that. You would need a 2 oz package of the beads for each tire and the applicator bottle. I'm going with the Counteract balancing beads I bought as a kit with the applicator, 2 special valve cores, special stem caps indicating beads are in tire and two 4oz packages of beads, enough for front and rear. I got the whole kit for 26.95 delivered. Good Luck with it.

It would be amazing (1000000 to one chance) if the old wheel weights were right for a new tire.

Agreed. More likely to be balanced without any weight if installed correctly.
