I don't remember if I got hot with customs, usually not I would dare to say. Even HST was often forgotten if the total bill wasn't worth them collecting the HST amount.

Nahhhh not to worry your pretty little head off there sister, a feller has to do what he has to do, and maintenance day is just what it means, that's when it's TIME to do those things, or at least as close as possible,, so the night before is most ideal.

Depending on what was done already I suppose, but here goes. Get a new one!!!! No NO NO!!! don't do that, these bikes are awesome and you now have 3,,, wow!! A 1986 and you're not sure what needs to be done. So Carb diaphragms and sync Swing arm should have grease zerks, otherwise it's wise to install and make sure of the bearings. Rear wheel pins and seals Brake calipers and fluid change. Steering head grease and adjustment. Battery connections and updated fuse box Shaft drive greased at both ends. Lube center stand and kick stand, check kickstand bolt for breakage, bending and looseness. Flush the cooling system, and check all the hoses. Lube throttle linkage. There are 2 sections, upper and lower. They split at the cruise controller. That should keep you busy for a night or 2. Want some help or company, give a shout.

Thanks for letting us know Don. There are quite a few of us who mourn lost loved ones, and each one needs to be comforted. We will ask that much comfort come from the One who gives it best.

So maybe I'm wrong, but didn't he put a rag in the rear cylinder and make lots of noise about why he did, and then not put a rag in the front cylinder? Also, it's interesting to follow him as to how good things are, and then to talk upgrade, but trying very hard not to downgrade the original,,, some fancy talk work that is. Lots of noise about how bad the oils squirters were loose, but then not to make a guy feel bad about his machine,,, he doubts they were leaking,,,, ya 1/2 turn loose? So then he saves his bacon by saying they were not loose,,, no,,, that wasn't the case,,, just not very tight maybe?, and as mentioned before, wouldn't you want new lock tight put in there?? How much would it take to do it right? So the sprocket issue,,,improvement and correction and better package,,, but, no lock tight where it could be very useful? Huh? And we are going to straighten the jug bolts, so they are perfectly square,,,, really?? interesting, maybe somebody can explain this to me as to why a cylinder bolt would be out of square and you wouldn't just replace it? and if and when the cylinder gets tightened down how it could be not be square to the deck?? Guess I'm not quite with it anymore,, or maybe they figure that most folks have no idea what's going on and are easily brainwashed. -
Glad my parents thought it a good thing to move to Canada!!!! Just who is this guy,,, maybe trying to make a buck on the internet,,, maybe he's even Dutch!!! More power to him

I usually pop them while sitting on the can. Don't think anything will live through that,,, sometime I can hardly make it!!

That was on page 3, towards the middle, near the end, a bit on the right side which is slightly over from the left. You should be able to find wear I'm at, close to the cheque mark.

https://www.yamahasportsplaza.com only posted $14.45 for shipping, and I loaded about 10 parts in their cart. I've always been happy with their service.

A couple of observations. This is not needed for @BIG TOM for he rides a Spyder and the last time I seen it, it had only one back wheel,, that's not saying he couldn't use 2, but he does have 2 on the front, but those are pushed and not driven. In the video at the end, the folks got things mixed up, the guy was on the outside wheel but should have had the inside wheel, that way the young lady would have had the greater benefit of more exercise which, although it doesn't seem that she needed it, might have aided her in the quest for perfection. All told, I think it was a great video, explains what it set out to do in easy to understand terms and didn't attempt to under-disclose any pertinent information,,, we could use lots more of that in today's advertising.

I'm stinking Big Tom has the winter blues, he's been all cooped up with nothing to do to get proper exercise, and you know how the brain goes when the body gets limp. Personally I'm glad that at least I am able to to tax his grey matter a bit, and maybe I can get him confused and upset enough to exercise his right to cross the border and into real territory.

So my thoughts, for what they are worth, is: Why did the biker not stop? Did he think it was fun to try to outrun a cruiser, or was he into something that deserved but didn't want a closer investigation. The biggest fault lies with the biker, he should have pulled over long before the end to save his bacon. The lights he ran were each on their own, suicide for himself, the cop and any others that might have legally got in the way, The cop has a job to do,, uphold the law,,, sure the infraction was minor, but the start of the pursuit changed all that, it's called resisting arrest if you will. The real culprit was the biker, and he could have changed the whole issue by pulling over and paying the piper,,, but then maybe the piper was to be paid lots more than just a simple speeding ticket. This vid demonstrates to all of us that when you run (sometimes our first tendency) all does not necessarily end well, and that would strengthen our resolve to end it before it starts.

You could try Fortnine, but don't think you'll be very successful. I have never used them as I have always been happy with South Seattle Sports Plaza. You could also try Parts Nation, but the same criteria applies I think.

Seeing as it's taken some time for any replies, I suppose most if not all Canadians are shaking their heads and wondering where the difficulty lies. Maybe it's in the translation from Canadian English to American speak??

You can say that if you want to,, but takea good look at that word, 'sensitive'. The root of that word is sense, and need I go any further? BS I say, BS. He knew that somebody was in the picture taking mood, so he was holding his cool, can't say what happened after that,, although they did get him married I think.
-
Yah!!! let's see, it could be @BIG TOM in his younger years in training, but just which one would he be. He could be the rider,,,,, but then again, it may be just as likely he could be the passenger,,,, I'll have to stew on that for a while.

Only in Can-a-da they say. Lookin real good!!! :canada:

RATATATAT,, WHAT DO YA THINK OF THAT!! Finally a binary for 10/22!!

I don't know how many shots that thing fires in one goround, but I do know that I would not get one. If I fired one shot, i would miss and feel bad,,,, can you imagine how bad I would feel if I fired all the shots??? Not going there, I feel bad enough already. -
Guess maybe I should translate: So how does one say 'donkey' in Yumergos,,, isn't that something like Tom? or if it's a little donkey,,,Tommie?
