She said "How does free sound?" Thought I heard wrong, but she explained Dairyland will add a second bike to my current policy at no extra charge. How 'bout dem apples? Kurt Nolte <[email protected]> Mar 02 10:21AM -0500 Not bad at all. What kind of coverage is involved? I currently have the Nighthawk riding on the same policy as my car, and it's reasonably cheap but I'm not exactly /fully/ covered here. -Kurt Joey Kelley <[email protected]> Mar 02 10:41AM -0500 All, Please be aware that policies vary by state - my Dairyland coverage doesn't offer me a second bike at no charge, although it isn't terribly expensive. I think with the multi-bike discount the coverage was only going to go up about $25 / year, but my NH is out of commission so I have no reason to insure it. -Joey -- -Joey Kelley JoeyKelley.com - My Life Online JoeyFixesComputers.com - Its What I Do!

It's been a lot of pun though. -Kyle -Here comes the pun, and I say, it's alright was sending bikes now viewing mesges Paul <[email protected]> Mar 02 06:38AM -0700 *I'm with Pat...it's been YEARS since I've used IE as a web browser. Recent versions have posted some respectable numbers in terms of performance, but I've completely switched over to Google Chrome and haven't looked back.* * * *Paul** Paul LeBoutillier * * * *www.hondanighthawks.net* surfswab <[email protected]> Mar 02 06:42AM -0800 I'm just opposite. Might have agreed before they came out with IE9, but now It's pretty strong and competitive with the rest. I'm suspecting this issue has something to do with Google's new universal privacy policy, which went into effect today. IE9 works normally everywhere but on this site, so I'm thinking it's blocking Google from applying tracking software to my account here by refusing access to anything beyond the home page. I'm using Chrome just to visit here and IE everywhere else, with no issues. Kyle Munz <[email protected]> Mar 02 08:47AM -0600 As someone who dabbles in web design and works closely with people who do it full time I'd disagree. IE9 is the wallowing cow of web browsers and doesn't render proper code worth a flip. Html/css that renders perfectly in Chrome/Firefox will look like crap in IE if it renders at all. Unfortunately this means writing twice the code to detect the browser and feed something else to IE. Sorry, I'll step down off my IE bashing soapbox now, but I've been bashing it since IE1. -Kyle Kevin Green <[email protected]> Mar 02 09:53AM -0500 As a webmaster I develop our site to work in IE because that's what most of our potential customers use. It's not the best, but once you get used to it you can always make things work in IE, and when they work in IE they almost always work in all the other browsers. I don't think IE is a great browser, and it's had versions that were totally html non-compliant, but it's what most people use and therefore what we have to support. IE9 handles code pretty decently nowm or at least better than IE7, and *gulp* IE6.5. [?] -- Kevin --------------------------------- 1982 Honda Nighthawk 450 - CB450SC Kyle Munz <[email protected]> Mar 02 08:55AM -0600 I will grant that IE9 is far better than previous versions, but stand by my position that FF and Chrome/Safari are more compliant. -Kyle On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 8:53 AM, Kevin Green < Kevin Green <[email protected]> Mar 02 09:58AM -0500 Oh certainly the case. I would love to be able to develop just for Chrome/FF/proper HTML 4.1 compliance. -- Kevin --------------------------------- 1982 Honda Nighthawk 450 - CB450SC Kurt Nolte <[email protected]> Mar 02 10:04AM -0500 I just wish Firefox would go back to being a sleek, fast-loading, low-RAM program. It's pretty heavy these days. :( -Kurt On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 9:58 AM, Kevin Green < Nighthawk with disappearing oil "Allen Thomas" <[email protected]> Mar 02 12:10PM My suggestion is to get a leak down tester and read up on how to use one. That will tell you exactly what is wrong without disassembly or $300. While I haven't torn down a bike engine it doesn't look bad at all to rebuild the top end, about as difficult as doing an air cooled VW bug.

It seems the pressure on cylinder #3 is 70 pounds (should be in the 140 range according to mechanic). He said for 300$ he could tear it apart and then he would be able to determine more exactly what was the cause. The motorcycle is in pristine condition overall. Both the front and rear tires are brand new and everything else has been well taken care of. At this point I think I'm looking at two options: A. Have the mechanic tear it apart and determine the problem with cyl #3 and then re-build it myself over the summer (I don't know anything about mechanics or how motorcycles operate). B. Sell the bike for parts. I have a working space in my garage and I'm ok learning new things. But like I've said, I have no previous experience with this kind of stuff. Is re-assembling an engine terribly complex? You guys have been extremely helpful in the past and I find this email list an invaluable asset. Thank you for all the informative emails!! Any suggestions? Stefano -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
