    Nothing better than a new sticky tire, ride safe

    Prayers for you and your family, God has a plan, this is just a trial. Stay strong, she will come through a better lady.

    Correct Here are a couple other pictures that might be of help,

    Generally speaking keep Japan parts on it. That said, one of the Forum greats uses a certain rubber glue and simply repairs his, he's been doing for years.

    This washer is what Marcarl is asking about

    I have had fuel line fail under hard acceleration, seems it draws a vacuum and collapses. It was a hard problem to find, it came about with a brake discussion and the old rubber expanding, lessening the effectiveness. a 83, certainly won't hurt to update fuel lines, lol.

    Wow, they actually put it in a box. 👍. Enjoy, hopefully you have cooler weather than us, a bit hot and humid in the midwest.

    It does cost a buck a month tho 🤣🤣

    My ole 83 will likely hit 50,000 miles tomorrow. to another 50, especially hopeful of not losing second gear. No problems yet 🤞

    Mine does not have class. Yes, a Schrader valve on a bracket mounted to handlebars, right next to key. Best to use a hand pump. I only run a couple psi in my fronts (with progressive shocks) helps keep pressure on the seals.

    Might not be a popular response, but a few years ago, I simply plugged mine old school style, kit from Walmart, and it worked fine. Not like it's going to blow up, it would just leak air slowly. Taking and having a professional patch put in is better.

    Haha, I would like to take one for a ride tho.

    Had to Google what it was, but that is a great idea, and written for us, the nuts on motorcycles. I'd exercise caution, but do it if allowed.

    My 83 likes to start, then get the choke applied. Almost sounds like you fouled your spark plugs? One last thing, first start in the spring, sometimes I have to remove the air cleaner, small shot of starting fluid, and away she fires.

    Mine is a 83, original most everything, just sayin. I would replace rubber hoses if going out of state, no issues. I'd take a peek in the gas tank, rust can gum up a lot if it gets past an old filter. Tires will be shot, shocks might leak.

    No, you need iPhones and have them as shared info with 'Find my Friends' Be careful what you wish for though, I have 2 daughters in their twenties that live in different states, like an idiot I look at times what they are up to.... Compounds the worrying just sayin. 😨

    Order a nice lock for that beauty 🍻. Around the city nice stuff disappears. I like the tongue locks, a bit of a pain in the arse to cut off. Maybe something like this. https://www.ebay.com/itm/331938218360?epid=15017021089&hash=item4d490f4178:g:QR8AAOSwIgNXrWf8

    Sure, but I would drill a hole through for the screws and run bolts, washers, lock washers, and a nut or two.

    I have a steel with wood bottom. My wood starting to go bad, it's almost 30 years old. The aluminum trailer with wood floor, would probably last as long as you need it too 😉. If you find an all aluminum and the deck is slippery when wet, you could always throw a truck bed mat in it, glue it down. I agree, aluminum is lighter.

    I run Shinko 230 Tourmaster on mine. Super economical, I got almost 11,000 miles out of my last set (yes front and rear), and I'm a big boy and ride semi free spirited. 😏 I wouldn't consider any other tire 👍
  22. SpencerPJ
    Thanks for sharing, we loved the narrows. I bet it was great riding 👍

    Looks great. I have a sister that asks me to look at X, and two days later will call and say, 'ever since you looked at X, my Y has been having issues'. I count on it. If she would only tell me about X and Y while I'm there.

    Great write up, thanks for sharing. I agree, Zion is a special place indeed.

    Sounds like a great plan, sometimes some even modify the seat to get a lower height FYI, next post, many people dislike it when a thread is started as all capital letters, kinda seems like we are being yelled at. 🍻
