  1. Lynn, how do you keep the staples from penetrating through the pan? looks like the ends of the staples could cause leg injury, if they protrude . just jt
  2. i have taken my seat cover off the '86, and did some major "whittling". now the recover question::what do you use to reattach the seat cover to the plastic pan? i seriously doubt that i could find 1/8 inch staples , this side of Japan, so i am open for suggestions. just jt

  12. First, i have never been big on riding two wheels. when i found my '86 v.r., i wasn't even LOOKING at buying a bike. both my brothers had recently re-started riding, so i thought "what the heck". i spotted this bike in a friend's renter's yard, and asked him to find out how much the guy wanted for it. the next day, i bought the bike AND a "smitty built" trailer for $5oo.oo ! so far, in the past two years or so, i have ridden it less than 250 miles. i expect that mileage to increase, now that i don't have anything but time. just jt

  16. I've been awful slow about checking the threads. i just checked the scales, and at 135 pounds, i can't afford to lose , even an ounce. i will , though, make a pledge to pay .10 per pound , lost. might even start going to work everyday, and up my pledge to a dollar a pound. after all, there isn't a better cause, that i can think of! just jt
