    Movin on!!!, lookin good enough to call you pros.

    Not everyone who is called a mechanic can properly tighten steering head bearings. I would loosen them off about a 1/16" and see if that makes a difference, often it will. They need to be tight enough to offer a very slight drag, but only very slight, a little too much and the bike will 'drift'.

    Road side kitchens for us, if and when we go, sometimes they even have places to sit and relax and those private things called toilets.

    Go ahead and mention who you think might fit those shoes, @saddlebum I'm sure won't mind.

    Thanks for telling us Don, you just don't know how important BOTH of you are to the rest of us. Will consult with the Great Physician and Master for both of you.

    My 85 ran fine on 87, it worked fine until I got my Spyder.

    Nope, I'm not so good at it either. Maybe just use Basecamp.

    Don't worry about the drive or directions, you are there already.... duhuh!! Let me check what I can figure out. Might take some time seeing as my forgetter is fixed again.

    It's black, has 2 wheels, 2 seats, 2 antennas, a windshield and trunk rack, but I see only one flag. Nice looking though, bet you will be happy and so will Miss Sally. Now what you going to do with the 85?

    There should be or was a push connector down the handlebars, seems you found the location but somebody needed the connector gone. Careful when you delve into the electric works of the MC, there are small parts in there that would like to go missing. Get a bedsheet to to work over.
  15. Marcarl
    Once you have the cylinder off of the bike there is a cover underneath that I think has 1 screw, remove that to access the soldered connections.
  16. Marcarl
    If memory serves me correct there is a connector about 6-8 inches from the cylinder.

    Glad to have you aboard. For better braking consider stainless braided lines, makes a world of difference, available from @skydoc_17on this site.

    Hey There

    Marcarl replied to Yama Mama's topic in Watering Hole

    Nice to hear from you Mama, and hoping that you and your first husband continue to get along fine on two wheels.

    I use Sunlight dish detergent, and on very odd occasion might have to use a little orange. Hands don't dry out nearly so much. Better I think.

    Choke plunger(s) stuck in the enrichment position?
  24. Marcarl
    It happens, not to all of them but it is common. Tap the side of the carb while the pump is running and it might solve the problem, if not take off the feed tube and push some carb cleaner into it, let it sit for a bit and try again with the pump. If that don't do it, it may be time for a carb rebuild.
  25. Marcarl
    Nice piece, hoping it works well for you.
