Well, as for how soon, they told me about 5 years max in 1985. Still here, thank God & prednisone.
as for inheritance, she's one of three, to divide assorted properties, jewelry, gun collections, oil/gas wells, cars, boats, houses and my Li'l Sumbeach motorcycle.Plus what I haven't spent from my Dad's estate.
None of them will have to worry about much if they can just keep Me from spending it first Cheesy

I keep teasing them about their Dad's next wife but they don't think that's a funny joke. Angry

Well, I've done the motorhome thing, decided I didn't like that so bought another house. I'm trying like he77 to spend it all.
Told #2 today I was trolling for her another guy, thought she was going to stroke Grin

They are starting to move her things now, think I'll stay in where it's warm. That way is Mr. A$$hole shows up I won't be tempted to blow him away. I've had a picture of him on my target range for over a year and you'd be surprised what that will do for your aim.

Posts: 278 Appleton, WI Gender:	Re: New Bigcrank Battery Reply #33 - 01/28/06 at 19:42:49 does not have a vent pipe and terminal mounts are much heavier so I had to bend the inside edge flat so it would bolt down. I am wondering if it doesn't have a vent pipe because it is sealed. Was is difficult to attach the terminals once you bent them down? I'm seriously thinking about buying one of these. Thank you.

Called a power sport made for fleet farm. It has the same ID number ETX15L. Figure I paid a $ 10 premium for getting it on Sunday to get my bike out of the garage and back home before it freezes up again in Wisconsin. Works Great!!

YO, Reeler,
Thanks for the heads up.
Just put the Yuasa (dry) that was given to me almost 2 years ago, in the LS650 last month as had just wrung the last breath of life from that original cell. However the battery in the new PC800 was weak, so I jumped on your advice and ordered the BC for the Pacific Coast and a Battery Tender too. I must admit my ol trickle charger is dead and the "smart" BT is the way to go, so now I have a BIG CRANK for my PC 800.
I wish I could say it was now a PC 1000!! Grin

We have used these Odyssey batteries and they are amazing in their ability to crank & run 15:1, 532 " motor. Down side is they give no warning to failure. Always carry 2 of them.

OK - longer term test -

At the time I started this thread I ordered a pair of these agm Bats - seems I now have a weak one in the '02 hot rod savage - the one the '95 seems as strong as the day I got it - hot charge and over night with no charge to bled off the float it holds 12.8v - but the one in the hotrod only holds 12.3-12.4v - this will crank a savage but likely will not start it
