    The paint on this one is pretty,,,, it's got 85k km on it and no CD player,, not even a radio or an antenna. Should be a lot quieter as well with no intercom.

    I'm not sure if I have all the info right here, but I am assuming that the ront brakes both should be working from the handle. If that is the case and you have fluid coming from the line but not from the bleeder, I would pull the bleeder right out to see if you then can send fluid through the caliper, if so, you have a plugged bleeder.

    Awh,,, come on,, you guys are taking all the fun out it. What I will need is a set of crash bars for an 86, the ones on this one look a little used, maybe a little over used. Plastic looks good, real good, it runs on most of the 4 cylinders it came with, back brake won't wear out in it's present condition, won't need to do oil changes seeing as the valve covers are leaking enough to keep the oil fresh,(also helps to keep the bugs away) probably will need to test out my new diaphragms, front end will need to come apart, swing arm will need attention so might as well look at the rear wheel as well. Won't have any problems with the Class, CB, or intercom seeing as I can't find them anywhere. I already practiced a u-turn and it works just fine, now to see if my neighbour will let me drive across his lawn just to see if it will do cow pastures.

    Ouch,,,,, now that it happened, do you feel better,, like more with the in-group?

    Well it runs, and drives but leaves a trail. Some cylinders not working so good, floats valves stuck in the open position, gas is about 2 years old, but she looks good.

    1st gen,,,, nice looking 86 with absolutely no bling, don't even know if it runs yet. Guess I have something to do this winter, unless somebody wants it more than me.

    I'd come, but you didn't say anything about nap time, so I won't be allowed to go.

    Bull**** baffles brains,,,, just don't let them even think that you have either!

    Glad you had company, and that you're home and moving around. Wish you the best with the boredom thing and all, going to be a bit of a time. God Bless. Maybe ask Bob for his trike, after all, he's not riding it!

    You need to check the voltage of the battery when it won't crank. That will tell a lot. I suspect a loose wire at the battery terminal. Could be a loose terminal or the wire might be loose where it bonds with the terminal.

    I was driving behind one of those BIG Jags today,,,, it looked like an old guy's car, and sure enough, it was an old guy driving it,,,,,, but it had me thinking: wonder when I'll be old enough to drive one of them there awesome machines.

    Interesting conversation so far,,,,, but mostly we are just speculating, why don't we wait for the outcome and see how this all works out,, it maybe a lot different than what we can discuss here in make-believe. Often time we can get ourselves in an awful snit over just half a story and when it all comes out in the wash, it kind of turns out for the better. Mod

    I've tried other ones, but the ones mentioned suit me to a T.

    Just hoping it stays south of the border, we're 'funny' enough up here as it is.

    Good to see you posting. Not always that it turns out this well, as some of our members can attest to. Take it easy for now, and get healed up. See you soon,,, and oh ya, say hello to Joyce, tell her we still love her. if it don't hurt too much, give her a hug.

    At one time somebody posted as to how to change from metric to imperial, all one needed to do was to solder 2 posts together. Don't know if the opposite works or not. I might try to find that thread.

    What I see happening here is that the outer edge of the rotor wears into the pad. Now for some reason unknown as yet, the rotor could catch the pad and then jam up, causing the back wheel to cease it's turning, and you might know what that would do. Not a real big issue maybe, well, at least not until it happens, and then it's a way too late to do something about it, it'll be locked and sliding.

    Looks good from here. And if you are happy with it, that's the most important.

    That's not a wagon,,,it's a manure spreader,,,, maybe that will explain some things,,,, maybe?
