    It’s a few days of the best riding you could ask for, not to mention the time setting around the fire hearing and telling stories. Some of them even true!!! I’ve made the last 4 years and it’s a ton of fun with some good people. I recommend the trip if you can.

    If we get to go we’ll stay there too. Right now 100 miles is about my limit, we’ll see in a few months.
  3. While you have it apart you can plug a 3.5mm Y splitter at the cassette and plug in a Bluetooth receiver to stream music from your phone.
  4. Look at the framework around the cassette player. If I remember correctly I took out the headlight assembly to get to the bolts but the fairing is attached to that framework. I used a rope from the shop ceiling to tie the fairing assembly up and out of the way.
  5. Do you mean moving the inner fairing?
  6. I hope it’s that simple and an easy fix. We’ve all done similar, except me of course. 🙄🙄🙄 Let us know if it works, if so it’s more info to keep filed away in or heads, if not somebody here will find the answer.
  7. Dennis Kirk usually has a good selection. I order my fronts there but use a car tire on the rear.
  8. The “audio” button is also the power button for the system. If it’s been turned off or battery unhooked hit it to turn on. Not trying to be funny but sometimes the obvious escapes us, wait til the kill switch on the bars gets you like it has the rest of us.
  9. 1999-2013 all are interchangeable.
  10. I’m not familiar with that model but I have a Work Sharp MK2 that I keep the knives razor sharp. Good products. I also have a Yamaha Venture MK2 so maybe I’m addicted to 2nd editions.
  11. Look in the tech section for articles about the shift segment pins. Clutch discs shouldn’t cause this.
  12. Still got my 86 (39 y/o) setting in the shop. Keep thinking I’ll get it out and clean the carbs but can’t seem to find the time. Parked it when I bought my 07.

  14. I talked to Dave last summer at the Asheville rally, he’s shipped his repaired shocks all over the globe. I have the instructions bookmarked but they’re on here somewhere, not sure where. He did a demonstration at one of Freebird’s MD weekends several years ago, great guy to deal with also if you want him to fix it.
  15. I’ve been on a couple of local rides so far, the longest being around 150 miles. I may ride into town today to run some errands.
