  8. Brian. good luck in your quest for floorboards. be ready to part with some SERIOUS $$$$, if you find a set for sale! just jt
  9. BOY do i hear ya , brian! texas refines gas and diesel, for almost HALF of the U.S. market! we ship /pipeline, natural gas , all the way to the canadian border. the real "cutter", here is , they can buy fuel and natural gas cheaper then us texicans , can! don't add up, somehow! just jt

  11. speaking of the "blue knights", is anyone familiar with "los reguladores", another leo bike ridin' bunch? just jt
  12. you see, brad! if you run up on a stump, ALL you have to do is ask! this bunch, is full of answers! just pick the one you like! lol i love this place! just jt:whistling:
  13. brad. that is the female half, of an electrical connection! it isn't used by first gen riders. it was put there by yamaha, so that a special module could be plugged in at a later date. this module cuts the horse power in half, so that ex-2nd gen riders wouldn't be traumatized by the shear power and SPEED that these old bikes can develop! lol:confused24: actually, i guess we'll have to wain on squeeze!. i ain't got a clue. just jt
  14. falco, glad to see you back, alive and kicking! don't be a stranger. lots of NEW members here, that you need to get acquainted with. take care of your health needs, and keep on riding! just jt
  15. i took a standard 18MM socket, and ground it down on the lower half, so that it just fits into the tapered hole. 1inch extension, just to break the plug loose. then i use a piece of vacuum hose to unscrew the plugs, and to start the new ones back in. just jt
  16. the brace with the slots, was a "one of a kind", custom made , by one of our members! just jt
  17. DANG, Charlie! i had to hunt , for ten minutes , to find "blueslover's post"!!!! you ought to be more direct, in your "quotes"~ lol good to see ya on here , brother! how's the hips? just jt
  18. yea! gw. but you never went past the red line, let alone the "rev limiter"!!!! you need to get "yammer dan" to show ya the ropes! given the weight differential, a first gen, will "out perform" almost EVERY crotch rocket on the streets! of course, 2nd gens, redline a LOT sooner than an "antique". so , they are hopelessly , lost! second best ain't so bad, if ya ride a 2nd gen! lol:stirthepot::stirthepot: just jt
