    Here's a great write up on repairing ABS. http://www.angelfire.com/oz/tes/Plasticfix/PlasticFixSite.html As far as the trunk rattlin' around, you may have more parts broken that you think. The trunks are mounted to the rack pretty tight, and one of the common areas to break is the thru bolts to the rack. However you might also just have a loose latch on your release lock and it's the lid that's making all the noise....??

    Welcome back Terry. Gotcha covered....

    OK, this is what Squeeze said... Located at 6 o'clock under the diaphram covers you'll find the idle adjustment screw hole. If there is no hole, you'll see a round brass plug about 3/8th inch in diameter. Take an 1/8th inch drill bit and punch a hole in the center of the plug. The plug is about 3/16th of an inch thick, so drill slow. The slotted idle adjustment screw is about 3/4 of an inch below the plug so be careful not to go too deep. After drilling the hole take a small wood screw and gently insert it into the hole. The plug will spin with little effort so the trick is to get the screw to at least 'bite'. Then take a pair of pliers and gentle wiggle the screw back and forth. The plug should pop out of the hole.:)

    WE NEED ONE MORE!!!! We're getting down to the wire on placing an order for the MACs, and we still have a few members who haven't sent in their payment. I can't contact one member, TJON, by email as he has his switch thrown in his CP file, and he's only posted twice in the last couple of months, so a PM isn't going to work either. So...... I'm going to have to assume that he no longer is interested, and we need another member to fill his place. CDLouis will be sending his money shortly, and I just fired off another Email to Richard. I know there's a few on the list that are very anxious to get their MACs, and I'm peddaling as fast as I can to comply.....

    Personally, what I'd do is rent a 10' U-Haul trailer, go down and yank the thing back home. Borrow a friends pick up truck if you don't have one. Having never seen it, it's the only thing that makes sense. a 14 hour ride gives it plenty of time to mess up your day big time on the way back...... Or check on the board and see if a few members in the area have a trailer and maybe a relay could be set up???

    I second that. The wire leak is right over the cross-over and it will smoke until it burns off. The clutch slave is in that area too, and if leaking will also cause the bike to smoke a bit.

    Check with Rick at http://www.buckeyeperformance.com/ I think he has heavy duty rebuilts for around $140....

    Toss in a can of Sea Foam with the next fill up. Can't hurt anything and if there is any crud in there it'll clean it out. Syncing carbs is not a big deal if you know someone near by that has a Carbtune II.

    Might be the boost sensor isn't functioning. Or.... synced your carbs lately??

    Could be a short in your ignition switch.. A few members have had to mess with theirs lately......

    I think the dull glow is ambiant light coming from the other dash lights.... Does the intensity change when you adjust the dimmer knob??

    I'm no electrical genious, and don't do demons, but I'd take a look at the starter solenoid being bad???

    Could also be one of the 'o' rings from the anti-dive unit???? Just a thought...

    Just a note. Ebay just had a set of Jardine's close at $350...sumpthing. Last week there was another set that closed close to that. MAC's are lookin' better all the time.....

    As long as it only whines in one particular positiion I wouldn't worry about it. Ride it until it gets worse,...... or somethin' falls off......

    I just bought an aftermarket. Took the old gasket with me, and sort of matched it up with one they had.

    I'm starting to understand now. While riding with a pack of 2ndGens on the way to Fort Collins I was going nutz running at 70mph when the speed limit was 75.... I guess they actually thought they were doing 75??? I knew I was in trouble when that little old lady pushing a baby carriage, along with just about every one else, passed us out in the Nevada Badlands............

    i had to replace one side only. Bought it at a local non-afilliated shop. Looked lead/silver-ish....kinda like oakem..... Worked. If you're carefull removing the old mufflers you may not need to replace the gaskets....
