I've used the Ride-on tire sealant, and will never use it again. I had to have the front wheel replaced under warranty. I doubt if I had more than 8K on the sealant. It was no longer a liquid. It had solidified and had turned "chunky". I had told the mechanic prior to the event, but he was...

Thanks Stef. Mike

Thanks guys. I think I'll email Klaus and then return it this winter. Do you still have an email addy for him? Later. Mike

Well, I did a search and came up empty. I need to increase the preload on my Wilbers more than what the remote will do. In otherwords, I have to dial in over half of the remote preload, just to set the bike up for the correct static sag per the instructions. I'm trying to run the nut on top...

PM me with your email addy's, I'll be more than happy to send out a couple pics. As for Scott's reputation, I don't know him personally, but I'd say he's awesome! I sent him a personal check for the brackets, I recevied the brackets a couple days after he got the check. I bet it wasn't 6 days...

Piece of cake to mount! Looks factory! Well done Scott! Mike

I received mine yesterday. Although I haven't installed mine yet, I must say they are VERY professional looking. Professionally packed and fast shipping. Thanks again Scott, looking forward to them. Mike

Scott, Thanks for the quick email. I'm sending you a check for $32. Thanks in advance. Mike

Did they actually have the tires in stock as well? If they had to order them, it would have to get to them first, then ship to you. That would also explain the longer ship time. IIRC, when I ordered my Avon's from them, it took 5-7 days as well. Just ordered them with plenty of time to...

I added sheepskin to the stock seat before the wife and I left on vacation last year. Before the trip was thru, the sheepskin came back off. Just didn't notice any real difference. Bought a Corbin close right after we got back. This was a real improvement over stock. Rode with the Corbin...

No worries sparky, I'm just PISSED that fuel prices have gone up so much so fast. I get inflation, but around here, it's gone up about 60 cents in 3 weeks. That's BS! That's not inflation, that's price gouging, and what am I gonna do about? Sit here and piss and moan about it 'cause no one...

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for saving the rain forests and helping prevent the penguins from getting sunburned. BUT, if I'm to use the Bio stuff, fine, give me an incentive. Don't make it the same price or even higher. It should be cheap enough that it's a no brainer. Around here, there is...

I just checked the VW website. It shows the Tiptronic as an option for the sedan anyway. I was told that there will be no '06 Jetta wagons at all. No '06 Passat wagons either. Plus their not putting the diesel in the Passat or Toureg until '07 due to the fuel restriction. Really enjoying...

It's my understanding that all newer diesels can handle the bio stuff. Problem is, the cost is just as high if not higher for the pump stuff. There are a couple of home brew kits out there. I found one the other day that touts you can make it for about 46 cents per gallon! I'm digging on...

Going down to see about working a deal tonite on an '06 Jetta TDI. We'll see. Mike

You're right Highlander, I did miss that. I went down to the VW store today and drove one, impressive really. I like the Tiptronic transmission. The engine had more grunt than I thought it would. I priced it and immediately ran away. 31K!!!! With my wifes employee discount it's still 28K...

Ok, so you guys with the VW diesels, what kind of mileage you getting? Please be specific as to what years, as I know the engine sizes have changed. Mike

Actually, I'm considering the Toyota Prius myself. Got one coming to the local dealer this week, may drive it home. 60mpg in the city, 50mpg highway. Hell, that's better than the FJR, and it has AC! ;) Mike

So do you wire the switch into the ground side or hot side to make the fan work? Mike

Ian, give this link a try. That's what I used last year on my trip. Good luck and have fun! Yami dealer search Mike
