With a new computor!!
My VERY old comp finaly had it a while back..it was rediculessly old...AMD 350MHZ processor, 256MB ram, and a 12 gig hard drive..LOL..talk about SLOW!!

Anyway, it crashed for the last time late last winter..so I just quit the internet until I could get something real..now I have a VERY fast comp, dual core processor, 500GIG hard drive, samsung 22inch HD LCD monitor etc...
Plus..I ditched DSL, and went to comcast cable...

that being said..I own an apoligy to Madpowersports..upon checking my PM`s, I remembered that I was working on a deal for a windshield with him, and just kinda disapeared..sorry about that..
I`ve done quite a few deals on here, all with out even a slight hipcup..
so that`s certainly not typical of me to disapeare in the middle of a deal..

Anyway, I have RARELY been able to check out any of the videos that have been posted on here over the years, only when I desperatly wanted to see it, did I even try, then it would take FOREVER to download, and at best, it would only play in very jerky motions, and more often then not, freeze up..I had totally reformatted that old thing, more times then i care to remember, but again, it was just WAY too old..my sister gave it to me back around 2001/2002?`ish, and it was every bit of 10 years old then..LOL

Anyway, needless to say..I still need a windshield, but if I can`t find one..I`m gonna have a heck of alot of stickers holding mine together..LOL, which is okay, as I`ve read on the internet that stickers/decals, especially flames, adds HP..LOL

Al, Know exactly what your talking about with the slow system. I had a setup much like yours and was using netzero dial up. When I bought my new computor and lcd screen I also went to comcast. It's like being a kid in a candy store isn't it. So much more you can do and see and sooooo! much faster. Tom

Welcome back, Big Al!

I figured that you were so busy with motorcycle season that snowmobiles were on the back burner. Glad to hear you're updated and cable ready. I remember how much more fun the internet got after I dumped dial-up and got cable.

And yes, I've also heard that flames make everything go faster!

thanks guys!!

I can`t wait to start tinkering with my vmax4...the last couple winters I`ve really slacked off...I`m going to pull the suspension, grease it up, clean the carbs etc..
she`s looking a bit rough these days..could sure use a good once over..
