There is a lot of ingenuity on this list. Maybe we all get together on that problem instead of another oil thread. DC D Critchley

*snip* There is a lot of ingenuity on this list. Maybe we all get together on that problem instead of another oil thread. */snip* That's one of the reasons I like these types of forums so much. You "get to know" some of the people, then one day they blow you away with in-depth knowledge of a particular topic, or relate a story that makes you see them in a completely different light. The breadth of human experience is a wonderful thing. Rev's story reminds me of how sometimes one's life can depend one's vessel, and that love and maintenance thereof is definitely NOT time wasted. My personal story involves this vessel and a category 3 typhoon. Ahh, those were the days... -Jeff Khoury [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

OIL???? DID SOMEONE SAY OIL THREAD? LOL Something else I found out today, some E letters were NOT completely Mine. We figured what happened was a partial deliting of more then one "REPLIE" tied two together and LOOKED like it was from one person. The replie I was reading had, From mw (ME) listed but only 2/3's were my words. At least it was still in line with what I was saying, so no harm, BUT that could cause an issue at times,......HE SAID WHAT.???? PLEASE DELEAT IN FULL WHEN REMOVING SOMEONES E. THANKS

Darn it, the list removed the link. Here's a link to what should have been attached to the words "This Vessel". http://oldcoasty.info/oldphoto/pictures/midgett2.jpg -Jeff Khoury From: "Jeff Khoury" To: pentax@...

Look close at the saddle bags "racks" instead of just bags and buying seperate "RACKS" theres a one piece plate that goes over the rear tail lugage rack and down the sides, sheilding the ibags near the tire. with twist locks to hold or remove the bags. Holds then tight to the plate. I guese ??? PRICEY, but you don't also have to BUY seperate racks, $250. +. NO NOT spam, just seen the other day, and passing on info.

Like tires, and a lot of other things, it is impossible to evaluate them without knowing how much they cost. --- In DSN_KLR650@yahoogroups.com, "cycletip" wrote: > > No one said anything about the bags.
