  1. In my best KY gobblety gook it’s both harder and softer. He removes some original foam, adds a layer of firmer foam and a top layer of memory foam. I’ve read tons of great reviews but it’s not for me. I took it off today to get good pictures, it does have more seam wear than I’d noticed, it is an 80,000 mile seat. To look at it you can’t see any difference after he’s done.
  2. I had my seat redone by Rick last summer, with my long legs and back issues it’s not working for me. I was thinking today of having it redone again back closer to original but thought if anyone wants it I’d swap for an original pillow top.
  3. Try eBay, Pinwall Cycles, or Mike Eykamp, you should be able to find one the right color if your bike hasn’t been repainted. That’s how I did a busted saddlebag.
  4. Morph closed down a few years ago, luckily I got a set of Mic-Mutes before that. Hoping they never fry.
  5. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5960489 Try this, maybe it’ll get you there if I did it right.
  6. Yeah, I never let my tires get all the way to the wear bars. I’m too attached to my skin.
  7. Yep, that’s them. When the city killed my email account after I retired I lost about 1/2 my contacts.
  8. I threw out all my cassettes years ago. I can stream my own playlists or full albums from Pandora or Apple Music. I got one of Edsets Bluestreak units before he went out of business to Bluetooth music and phone calls through the speakers or headsets.
  9. Will the bike roll in gear with engine off and clutch engaged?
  10. Does anybody remember the new couple that showed up for one day last year at Asheville? Maybe with @dfitzbiz? They wanted a set of passenger pegs but I lost their contact. Waiting for 10 sets to come back from powder coat any day.
  11. Checked the float levels?
  12. Check clutch, driveshaft, final drive.
  13. Plugs? Carbs clean and in synch? Brakes dragging? , high speeds?
  14. Take the cover off of the ignition switch, you’ll see the hose off the right side front of the tank.
  15. Sounds like the pushrod is out of place.
  16. Cycle the key when it stops, listen if the fuel pump clicks normally. Really sounds like the fuel tank vent is plugged as already mentioned.
  17. @M61A1MECHis correct, it’s a fully hydraulic system. Try lubing the lever pivot, check the calipers, and fluid.
  18. Looks like a blast.
  19. Does that mean it sounds crappy? 🤣🤣🤣
  20. My lower legs get soaked on the RSV, I do miss the 1st Gen fixed fairing in the rain.
  21. I don’t have one either, my cassette deck is long gone anyway. Thought somebody here might want it.
  22. If you 3D print check this out. Files in link. https://www.facebook.com/groups/135373523171973/permalink/9206330209409547/?mibextid=W9rl1R
  23. After removing the final drive you can just pull the drive shaft out. It can be tricky to line it up with the u-joint going back in. There is a rubber plug on top of the housing, pull the plug and use a piece of wire to line up the u-joint.
