I guess that the best thing to do would be to inform us of the years and models, then there would be ideas come forth.

Darn!!!! I hate to admit it,,, but I have to agree with Puc this time around,,,, can't even seem to find a monkey wrench to throw into the mix. You is getting smart Puc!!!

Ya,,, if there had been a foot of the stuff,,somebody would of had to give that truck a push!!!

Just make sure you have the right size allen, otherwise you'll be drilling and tapping, and that ain't no fun. I would use a quality allen bit with extension long enough to properly get an impact driver attached, but the allen needs to be a snug fit, not one that has wear or you'll strip out the bolt head.

Ya buuuutttt,,, what if for some unknown reason I fail to make it on that weekend, then you wouldn't have had the pleasure of seeing me at all for a whole year,, well maybe that would be 2 years,, that would be a long time and you might have withdrawals and who knows what other ailments might develop. I will sit down and discover if my planning can include a short stay at,,,, where was that again???

Let me get this straight, you said that I need to put them on and get them off?? or did you really mean something else,, like,, you get them on but I can't get them off,,,, maybe you could explain that just a little.

Ahhhhh rip!!!! and I;m not invited,,,,, nice guy!!!!

That would seem logical to me, red is usually always power or positive. If there are 2 wires then one would be positive (colored, or most of the time red) and the other negative or ground (most of the time black or occasionally green) and normally the positive would be switched.

Mama??? you have a reputation??

You mean they don't make Sail and OldChum anymore? I used to like Sail.

I'm thinking there should be an easy answer to that question,,,, but seeing as there seems to be some contentiousness about the answer I would think it best that all involved should be asked to vote on it. In order to vote properly, and by Roberts Rules of Order, nominations need to held first,,, so I nominate Saddlebum and Cowpuc,,,, seeing as it has been seen as improper to nominate oneself.

Blessings for you Annie, and for as many years as you might be allowed to stay on this side of the river.

That's the way I seen it,,,,you need glasses Jeff?

I guess your wife likes peace and quiet. And as for CHAT, yep!!! I stopped by last night and nobody was saying anything,,,,,,, maybe there's more like me....... nice and quiet.

I don't talk much, but hug a lot!!!

In my very humble thoughts: all 3 wires from the stator, the yellow ones go to the 3 whites on the bike, don't no matter which is which because all 3 come from a third of the stator and those thirds are not designated or numbers. The green ones are ground and the reds are power, again, it don't matter, for power is power and ground is ground. I would get rid of that 3wire connector though and solder wire to wire, then wrap with electrical tape and shrink tubing. There's lots of volts there when she running.

When I look at getting a deal on some auction or other 2nd hand seller, I always consider the shipping cost. In this case my thought would have been: how far is it, how much gas will it take, how many hours will it take to complete the transaction, and what will meals cost me for the trip. All told, it adds into the costs of what I might think to be a bargain, but in the end may not be so cheap as I might think,,,,, for,,,, the fact must also be considered what if I don't want what is for the offering, then it's all a waste unless I have more reasons to travel that way or that I might enjoy the trip just for the sake of the trip. If the calculations work out for me, I go, take a buddy or my wife, and see what there is to see. Iffin the figures don't work out, at least I didn't waste my day. If things don't figure out out for me, I stay put and let somebody else be happy with the find. If transaction screwed up,,,, as happened in your case, the only person hurt here is yourself,,, and I hate hurting meself.

Gonna miss ya Carl, you come up with some good advice every now and then. Who are we going to get to replace you?? But hey! life goes on and things change and I can see your reason for your decision. Country is a nice place to live, been there for years, but then 10 years ago we moved closer to the city, knowing that as time went by it would be nicer to live closer to city, so now we're on the edge,,, and wouldn't move for love your money. Of course we have all we need and then some, Marca has a 3 bedroom house to quilt, sew, cook and craft in and I have 750sqft of space for my stuff, with more lawn than I need to cut and enough driveway to clear from snow. Some advice: keep your house small and your barn BIG!!!!

Good to hear from you Aussie, kept wondering every once in a while as to what may be going on in your life. Good to hear that you are busy carrying on carrying-on. Blessings in all that you do and set you mind to. Stick around here a bit more often so we can keep a handle on your becomings. Say Hi to that old man of yours,,, what's his handle again???? oh yah, QuickStep, and if he gets you lost and you see a sign that says Ontario??? there a bed for you and maybe even some food.

Make sure that the clothing you wear fits properly, not tightly and not so loose as to allow air flow through. There needs to be air for insulation but id the air is being exchanged then it defeats the purpose.

Gonna miss ya oldman, been a good ride and glad to have had you along. I can understand your needs and where you think you should be or not to be. I have missed your more frequent posts and have been wondering where life was taking you. Blessings in your future, and if you ever get lost and end up in Ontario, we would be glad to have you make a personal landing.

Sure do look like a Scot bike though, thing I noticed that he is very worried about tailgaters with that air-horn pointing back like that, one blast of that thing would scare the bejebers out anybody. Cute!!!

Don't hear very much from that part of the country. I guess it's because it repeats itself almost daily, so it's not news anymore. Interesting though, how with all the rockets and other things thrown at them, they still continue to thrive and survive. Many other nations would have gone down the poop chute long time ago. Yaweh did say that they would be His people forever and that He would protect them and give them their country to live in. Looks like He is true to His word. Good for us to know, eh?

Seems you like that color,,, did you know that? Not sure it can be called an upgrade, so congrats on the change.

My mother taught me and then reminded me that as I got older I was to make sure that the old and infirm were properly looked after, she said that I was never to forget about those older than me and to keep in mind that even though they might still look real good, that was not always the case of things on the inside. She said something about hearing and speech, shaky limbs, eyesight, memory, etc. So I guess I have to stick around, even though I don't ride a Yamaha right now, just to make sure that somebody is looking after all the mellowing on this site, along with the fact that I have more friends here than anywhere else. So you guys just can't leave!! OK??
