It's all in the butt!!
If you're sitting too low, get more butt.
If you don't have enough room, loose some butt.
If the ride is too hard, cushion it with air.
Butt if you've never rode a 1st gen,,, how do you know???
This is the stuff I use for almost anything. Stretch it, tape it, leave it and the only way to undo it is to cut it off. Doesn't look cheap, but a little goes a long way. There is a roll in the car, truck, bike, tool box and a spare in-case I run out.http://images.lowes.com/product/converted/062093/062093860015lg.jpg
The problem with speed is that you get there too soon!
Ya, that also goes for the other guy, who sees you coming and thinks he\she has lots of time yet. But it sure is fun!
That might be possible, one might have remove all of them to do it right. As you might notice the tubes are not perfectly perpendicular to the cover, there is a reason for this, and I believe it is too clear the fuel line when the carbs are installed.
Four tubes come one from each carb and are vented behind the engine, there is actually a wire bracket to put them through. They are overflow tubes.
The hose coming from the twinkie goes to the bottom of the air box, a real pig to hook up. Some bikes also have a T in the hose to route it to some other place.
If you want to have some time on your hands, keep working! When you retire you never have time for anything any more.
In the meantime, enjoy the job change.
Bubber,,, you are out of line!!!! In post # 1126 there is not even to mention of WHY. Please remember that to be a proper poster you need to post properly or else the question will get lost in the shuffle, or the thread could be HI_JACKED, or maybe worse, it might go south. So far so good, a little blurp maybe, but we should be able to recover.
Don't ask me why I posted this, maybe just to get Annie confused.
Ii have a water blaster. It's a unit that you stick on the end of your pressure washer that has a suction tube on it that sucks up the medium and then blasts the object with water and whatever you use for a medium. Haven't used it on plastic yet, but it's an idea. Worked awesome on steel though.
