Had no issues myself, but don't want to post anything that may be harmful.

Yepper. Most likely broke some stuff loose while working the valve that clogged the aerator and/or screen. If you clean it and that don't do it for ya, you may have overtightened the supply lines. The rubber seals at the ends of the stainless supply lines don't have to be very tight to seal, and can expand inward, reducing the inside diameter if overtightened. Probably the aerator though.

You have my deepest sympathy. Beloved pets are much more than animals; they're family. The lil' guy that's pictured as my avatar is gettin' old, and I'm worried about how my better half will respond when he goes. We both love him very much. As I'm sure you know, after the grief passes, you'll remember the good times much better than the bad. Take care:8:

I just doubled up the oem "wave" style spring. It made for a heavier pull on the lever, which doesn't bother me a bit, but now she'll pull the front wheel when hard shifting from 1st to 2nd, and no slippage EVER.

Got a Utopia Backrest for my 06, Carhart coveralls, heated, remote control insoles for my boots, monster foot slippers, and myriad of dvds, goodies and what nots.

I often think of how lucky I've been. When I was young and dumb I (and friends) would go bar-hopping on the bikes. It was hard to keep the front wheel of that KZ1000 on the ground after a few drinks. Nowadays I'll limit myself to 1 beer per stop, and usually prefer a soda. I wait 'till I get to my final destination before doing any real drinking. Liquid courage and bikes don't mix. Glad ya survived to ride another day.

My first thought would be a cut off tool (typically pneumatic) with a 3" abrasive wheel on it. If you're willing to take the time and want the least chance of damage, you can even do it with a dremel tool with about twenty cut off wheels. In tight spaces, I've used a dremel to cut roller bearings off of a 1" shaft. It takes a while, and you'll go through a lot of wheels, but it'll be easy to avoid damage, and it is effective.

Yeah, they're Crazy, but they got skills...

Like many others here, I have one of your braces on my 87, I also have one of the TCI upgrades from Dingy, although I've never installed it. I've also purchased from Skydoc, and plan on doing a clutch upgrade on my second gen with parts from him next Spring. Actually, I've never seen the banner ('puter musta' blocked it) I think most members would happily buy from other members first. Great prices, and the buyer has endless support after the purchase, and a fantastic resource to rely on from the many knowledgeable members on this site. It only makes sense to look here first. Thanks to all of you for all that you do. It's much appreciated. Merry Christmas to all !!!

I make a habit of saying "Merry Christmas" this time of year, whenever the opportunity presents itself. It's not that often that I'll get a "Merry Christmas" in return.....usually "Happy Holidays", which I gladly accept, but am disappointed that the reason for the season isn't commonly acknowledged. The politically correct brainwashing has been pretty effective. I'll keep doin' my part though. Merry Christmas everyone !!!

I believe I heard somewhere that WD40 was formulated to displace water and protect the metal on Titan rockets. Water Displacement......40th formula they tried.

I don't hunt with a rifle any more.....haven't for over 10 years. I still go up to the cabin in Northern PA with the same guys I've been hunting with for nearly 40 years now. Not many deer left up there. The Game Commission "managed" them nearly out of existence. In any case, here's a pic of the one I would've had if I'd been willing to shoot. I watched him from about 250 yards out, and he came within 60 yards, offering a standing, broadside 60 yard shot. (Couldn't miss) I enjoyed my "hunt" thoroughly, and am still part of the gang. This pic shows him as he's walking away, but shows the horns pretty well.

Nah....I don't think the Christmas Season should begin till I get home from Deer Camp. The wife was doing a search through the DVR to record her / our favorites and was upset that she couldn't find them. Used to be that It's a Wonderful Life, ...The Bishops Wife.....Bells of St. Marys......White Christmas..... would all play several times in December
-
The wife was searching for "The Bishops Wife" and "It's a Wonderful Life", which are Christmas Staples for us, but she couldn't find any showings listed. We have Directv, and a premium package, so we've about 500 channels and can't understand why they wouldn't show them this year.

Is Centers for Disease Control trying to reduce motorcycle use?

Gubment just wants to protect us. -
My niece got a 6 point with a crossbow. (Ohio) I haven't hunted in 10 years, but I still go up the huntin' cabin with the guys. I usually take a camera, and hunt with it. I thought I got some great pics of a ten pointer until I tried to view them, finding that they didn't come out. Didn't format the card or sumthin' As I've aged, I lost my desire to kill deer. I like to see them too much, and there's too few of them left where I hunt.

With the classic styling of the second gens, they look a lot like Harleys, which has prompted the slang that calls all similarly styled bikes "Hardleys". Perhaps we should call the site Hardleyriders.com. LOL:rotf:

I've been here all along. Ridin' season is over for a lot of us, so not too many bike related issues to discuss, plus we're getting into the busy holiday season. I've noticed the same thing happening in years past. I wouldn't be too worried, but I'll try to get a lil' more involved.

Why We Ride -- VR Movie Night -- Columbus Ohio
uncledj replied to dave_wells's topic in Watering Hole
I'd sure like to join ya, but that's first day of Buck season. I'll be up at the cabin in North Central PA until Tuesday night. I don't hunt anymore, but I've been there every year for the last 37 years and don't want to break the tradition. Same group of guys goes up every year. At least those that are still with us.
