  1. That washer is not a flat washer, it's cupped a bit. You might be able to use a flat washer but I haven't heard if that would work though.
  2. Good news you guys, love it when things happen over and above.
  3. I bought a vacuum cleaner just for that process, cleaning up spider pieces. Now once I get it out of the box I then have to learn how to drive it, shouldn't be too too hard, it says it has 4 wheels.
  4. And make sure you have the air filter in place with the lid on.
  5. He could either wear a thicker soled shoe or maybe lower the bike some. Both ideas work well.
  6. The only thing not safe about it would be if he had to cross the border after a shopping trip wit his dad.
  7. Welcome back little boy. Don't worry none about the Spyder thing, they are a great machine for some including yours truly. About the only discussion going on here is about likes and dislikes, for these machines seem to need very little in the way of repair.
  8. Actually there is not a lot in there, but without 1 stupid little spring, it's all kind of useless.
  9. Yep, know all about that. Less than 5 minutes to get things lost, whole job about 4 hrs. 3hrs 45 min on hands and knees checking out what was on the floor or elsewhere.
  10. Might as well clean the whole carb while you are there anyways. After you figure out the first one the rest should be the same.
  11. My first go to in your case would be to take the high/low beam switch apart and clean it and make sure it is all there and works.
  12. Marca and I decided to get the same helmets some time ago. We liked the grey color, so started with that, liked the HJC so added that to the list. Went to our local dealer and tried on the two they had, mediums were the choice. Hers fit right, mine didn't. We exchanged the units with each other and now neither was comfortable. Went to another dealer who had 4 of the right choice. One fit right, the others didn't. They said: no problem, come back next week and we will have 4 more for you to try. We did and they did. So all the helmets were HJC medium, silver color, 3\4s. Out of 12 'identical' helmets we found two to be comfortable, but hers is not comfortable for me or vice versa. I find it interesting how those thingies all come out of the same mold but are all different somehow.
  13. And partial removal of the left side exhaust to get at the lower bolts holding the stator cover in place.
  14. Always something! Anticipation is half the fun I'm told.
  15. Good thought,,,, We just attended our Grand sons wedding, all planned and organized by his Mom, that's what happened a lot years ago. Today though, on the whole we hire someone to do all that. We hire planners, caterers, musicians, bar tenders, DJs or a band,,,, yep, that's today society, lack of leadership and planners and definitely a lack of workers. My side of the family cleaned the place up afterwards, including the dishes, not even a offer for help from the other side, but they did keep the barkeeps busy. Good point!
  16. We seem to be getting plenty of those types, so many that we now have names for them,,,,, Karens and Kens.
  17. Sounds really expensive. Last year our prices were around $1.25L, this year $2>$2.25L. Big jump! And it doesn't cost anymore to get it out of the ground.
  18. No milk today, what does that message mean? the end of your hopes? the end of all your dreams?
  19. Yep!
  20. Put the pizza through the blender, it'll still eat. Glad your feeling somewhat better.
  21. Did you try to milk the 'cow'? Nice landscape, enjoy!
  22. By failed, do you mean it wouldn't dis-engage or was it slipping?
  23. keep in mind that a MC tire has a whole lot less rubber on the road compared to a CT, so a small amount of things being out with a CT could have a great amount of input.
