  1. That may depend on whether you are reg,,, oh never mind, we don't want to know.
  2. Latest bid now at $375.00
  3. So you've been watching and wanting,,, don't be shy, bid another $5 to get in on the action. Auction closes Wednesday, that's tomorrow evening,, at that point I'll have to decide how to close it,,, hadn't thought of that real good, but I'm sure it will work out somehow. Just had to get this back to the top again,, and had to say something.
  4. WHAT???? you weren't working the other night when I was there.
  5. If the clutch hub in that pumpkin is any good we seem to wear them out rather rapidly around here.
  6. Looks like a wonder in progress,,, keep up the good work!
  7. I would second Gary's thoughts,,, can't think them out either,, but so I don't look stupid I'll agree.
  8. Hey, I'm up for a ride Wednesday evening,,,,, ice-cream anyone????
  9. Glad to hear from you, and that all is OK with you. Constant prayers for all those who are going through the natural disasters coming our way.
  10. Line 2 has me confused.
  11. 83 to 85 will fit no problem. 86 to 93 will fit but you will have to make a few mods.
  12. Maybe good idea to read ones post before hitting the submit button. Somehow this post gets me confused. Please help me out. Thanks.
  13. Happy Birthday little one,,,,, make sure that big boy does nice things fo you today,,, BTW,,, are you over 40 yet?
  14. I don't mind this idea, but the idea of my brakes lights coming on everytime I slow down a bit, would drive the driver behind me nuts and soon he/she would not pay much attention to my brake lights coming on.
  15. Update: It's Ok to out bid somebody else, that's the idea. You don't need to wait until the last minute,,, it might not happen. Small bits are quite acceptable, even $1 US bids. or 50cent CDN bids.
  16. Thought I said real genius,, maybe you missed that part. Already been practising on the speechie thing, they were just about ready to boo me off the stage @ MarCarl's. Somehow I managed to escape unscathed.
  17. I thought you just got a whole lot of Citrosolve? Works wonders!
  18. We'll miss you guys,,, really miss you guys,,,,,,,,,,, Now that Mini is out of the way........ the rest of us can get our licks in,,,,,,YAHOOO!!!!!
  19. I'm thinking that every V-Max style bike should have one,,, this looks like a real beefy thing, something that could handle the extra torque and pressure that a hi-bred bike could put to it, of course it would take a genius to figure out how to mount it,,, but that is a different story.
  20. Next bid is for $350.
  21. First bid is $200
  22. More info: George had owned a Venture, then decided to sell it. He had installed this shock, hoping for a better ride and he said he was quite happy with the results, he's a fairly big guy. When people were looking at the scoot to buy it, he was told the price was too high, so he took off the Corbin seat and this shock to lower the price. The scoot sold, the seat sold but this shock was still in his garage, so finally he decided that somebody might as well have some use out of it, so here it is. He admits he probably over paid for this shock, so please don't go by the $902 I mentioned before. It has no air. It has a re-bound adjustment It has spring pre-load, but no tool to adjust this. And it's a pretty color.
  23. Hope this works. H.D. was by today and left me with an almost brand new 2nd gen YSS Suspension shock bought in August 2011. Model # MZ-506-255TR. George said he only had it on his bike for about 300 miles. He also showed me a bill for $902. It looks very new but that is about all that I know about it. It looks like it has a rebound adjustment and spring preload adjustment George said he no longer needed it and so wanted to give it away, so now to who???? We talked about it and decided to auction it and give the money to our SA fund (Special Assistance) which we use to help others in need when the need arises. I will be at MD with the shock in tow, so it can be picked up there, or we can ship it as well. If I missed something George, or got something wrong, jump in here and set me straight. So here's how we'll do it. If you are interested to buy this item, send me a PM with your offer, no reserve. I will post the ongoing price in this thread and announce the winner by next Wednesday eve.
  24. While your at it and seeing as the forks are going to be out anyways, might as well take them forks apart and make sure sure that everything inside is as it's supposed to be,, you'd be surprised at what I have found inside. It only takes a bit of time and gives you piece of mind. I think what your talking about would maybe be identified as a squiggle. We had that issue some years ago, 2or3, and I was one of the worst, couldn't ride any faster than 65mph or things would start to move around, like I was bucking the wind from a trailer. So I tightened up the motor mounts, checked alignment, changed tire pressures, took off the bags and trunk, took the whole back end apart, replaced the main bolt on the swing arm, installed a super brace and progressive springs, changed from Avons to E-IIIs, finally took the front end apart again and now finally things have improved, not 100%, but much better. I would suggest it's the front end. As a side note, it would squiggle with 1 up, but put a passenger on the back seat, even a small one, and problem went away.
  25. Yep, your stator is fried. The cooling system in place for this is a wee little pin hole in the dimple in the middle of the bolt that holds the balancer in place. You can get a very small wire to poke it to make sure it's open, or just remove the bolt to do a proper job and maybe open it up a bit. I found that the hole is soo small that it takes very little to plug it. Don't worry about the balancer falling off in the process, it would take at least until MD for you to get it to budge.
