    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Finally mounted my mirrors correctly

When I broke one of my original mirrors a couple of years ago, I bought an aftermarket pair as a replacement and put them on the bike. I always thought they looked goofy with their vertical orientation but lived with them that way figuring that was just the style. Don't know why but tonight I grabbed one and tried to twist it around to horizontal. Well I'll be a son-of- B$&@!; I've had them mounted on the wrong side all along. Much better now. I'm not ashamed to share my idiocy.

They would have been ideal for seeing large mountains and trucks to the rear.
 
At least it wasn't a tire mounted wrong way around.

I find it therapeutic to laugh at myself once in awhile. That way I fit in with everyone else who is doing it ;)
