    Planning a tour through South Western Ontario next week. I'll be somewhere between Windsor, Brantford, Orangeville and The Bruce. My focus is to rally small meat markets\butchers together in trying to change the way our provincial government is handling the inspection system. I suppose it could be seen as a holiday and I kind of like that idea, but I will be focused on this issue, as change is drastically needed in order to save businesses such as ours. Trouble is, most guys feel that they are all alone and have to deal with the government on a one to one basis, so I plan to change that thought somewhat,, maybe even start a new association. So if you know of a small meat market or butcher, let me know, I'll try to pay them a visit.

    To Sleepy 2 for coming out yesterday and helping me put up shelves in my wifes new pantry room, and then eating all the left over burgers, as well as Wizard765 for helping paint that trailer box that's been here all winter that someone is getting kind of anxious to put on the trailer frame. Robin came along (Wizards wife) and helped load the pantry shelves, as well as eat, Phantom wife (Sleepy2's wife) also came for supper. Evan and Anne were by for lunch and we made them happy by getting the intercom working a little less noisey. All in all, we had a great day, but sorry, only pictures of the work done, I guess everyone was a Phanthom, because we got no pictures of people, everybody was camera shy I guess.

    My back is not the best this morning, so weather or no weather, we staying off the scoot. All are welcome to come and enjoy some company here though. I'll be trying to smear some paint on an old box for a new trailer, and the more that are here the more I can blame a crap job on somebody else,, if it turns out good though, I can take the blame for that. I believe Wayne and Robin will be here for the day, so now you all are welcome as well. Lunch will be provided, but you'll have to eat it yourself.

    Try giving it a run first, clean out the old fuel, run through some new fuel with Seafoam or some kind of cleaner. When you got that done, drain the bowls (probably best before and after) then try the sync again.

    My guess would be float settings, unless the choke cable is routed wrong and causing problems,,,'course that is a wild shoot

Need to paint a trailer, if it rains, could be done, need to do more things around the house,,,,need to find a stud or two to satisfy my wifes wishes,,,,,need to put up some shelves,,,,,,have to find a good place to eat after a whole day off and doing nothing,,,,,,,,my luck the weather will clear in the evening and we'll have to go see what all the noise is about at the distant neigbours,,,,,,hopefully my back will be more flexible by morning,, fixed the seat on Scamper today so Marca's butt will sit longer and better,,,,,,still have to install it, only takes but a minute,,,,had enough rain for now,,, maybe tomorrow we ride,,,, gotta ride,, last time was Sunday,,I'm having withdrawals,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    Probably China, you know it can't be very big,,,,,,,, and the wheels have to be small and carry a lot of weight. Tires need to have deep grooves to get through all the BS,,,,, steering will be loose as usual,,,,,,, there's probably no headlight, kind of useless anyways the the rider drives,,,,,,,brake lights don't help none either,,,,,,,do I need to go on??

    If that's what a Wing can do, there should no longer be a question about the RSV. PERIOD...

    Was good to meet you, as well as all the others, next time stay longer and eat more.

    Next thing would be to unplug the attenna from the radio and the CB and then see if you still have some noise, or else drop it by and we'll pull it apart and then see what happens. There are also noise filters that do both the ground and the positive, maybe get one of those and hook it in.

    I thought you had a real bike,,,,,,,,,now what did you go and do????????????
  22. Marcarl
    So why don't we plan on leaving Tuesday night, over night at some cheap dump and then ride away from it all day Wednesday and end up looking at some fireworks in the evening. So OK, all my ideas aren't the best, so I don't mind if you trash one or two.
  23. Marcarl
    Ya I remember running a red light once,,well maybe once at a time,,, guess it's not just old guys who can do such a thing,,,,maybe keep an eye on the younger ones as well.

    Fuse block could be your problem, is on a lot of 1st gens. Check the tension on the fuse holders, those little brass things that hold the fuse in place while in the fuse block and are supposed help to transfer the electrical current from one side of the block to the other. As they get old they loose their tension and could break off altogether and the signs of the times are that you start to have sparatic electrical issues that fix all by themselves it seems. Take a look, pull out the fuse and squeeze the ends together, you may find that they break off. Replace the block is the answer.
