Thats something that I would like to do also, I can't imagine all the bad habits I have acquired over the 30+ years I have been riding.
-
Actually it's a Bendix/Zenith butterfly, but I am going to upgrade it to an 40 to 44 mm Evo CV when I take it down to redo it. I just wanted to rebuild the carb on it now so I can put a few miles on her

Not everyone can be a beautiful as that Pug and me
-
Nice work you 2, the pic with the look on Vic's face is priceless
-
Good to hear you made it Patrick, hopefully we'll get to hook up at some point soon!
-
Why dont you come over to Kbran's in Bogalusa on Saturday for the Maintenance Day he's having
-
Randy, I looked into that too, and I think it can be done. If you look at the parts breakdown the gears and almost all the attaching harware seem to be identical with where everything is placed. If I can come across a G2 to part out for my '99 I'll get with you and we'll get the trans in your hands.
-
I'm right with you Kevin, my '99 is way stripped worse than yours. Looking forward to seeing how your turns out, myself I'm thinking of a Bronze/Copper color with a some irridecence in it for color change, I'm going to paint mine myself too if I can find the venue to do it...good luck with the project

:rotfl:....no, wait a minute....:rotfl: How is...dare I say it, Grandma taking it Really congrats to you 2, now the fun really begins!
-
Nice looking scoot Jerry, I hope you get LOTS of miles on her...the H/D looks real nice too
-
I was working on my H/D yesterday with Ponch, I actually rebuilt the lawnmower carb on it and she fired right up. Thats probably going to be my main bike to ride since I sold the '89 and the '99 has a lot more to be done to it before it's road worthy.

Like I mentioned, just lightly seat all of them and then just a small tweak, 1/8 of a turn is all. The spring acts just like a lock washer, they wont loosen up
-
Shane, No worries man, I have broke a few of those bolts in my day. They are like 6 or 7 ft lbs I believe. Basically you just snug them all up to where they lightly bottom out and give just a wee little tweak. I never tighten them with anything other than a 1/4" drive ratchet. Just pull the old bolts out and install the new ones. You didn't hurt the spring at all, just remember to criss cross the tightening sequence like your tightening the lugs on your car rim...it's all good bud
-
Very nice folks, good to see you all together up there in the frozen north. Nice job on bringing the 2010 M&E schedule to a start in MN.

Is that Pug/Shelty mix Jopie? Ex wife had a pug that was a mix with the longer nose, kept the respitory distress less and she lived a long time (about 13 years) which is unheard of for a purebred Pug.
-
Looking good my friend....keep at it!
-
Some of the finest Cajun cookin you'll ever have, we'll send pics of it all next Saturday
-
...did you put a carbtune on it also? -
The pic of our house in Michigan is atleast 6 months old if not longer. I replaced the garage doors last summer and the old wooden ones were still up.

Jardines and Macs are the 2 aftermarkets that come to mind immediately with me. I know that Condor here on the site did a group by on some Macs not too long ago. You might want to get ahold of him and see if there were any leftovers. BTW welcome to the group, we hope you stick around, this is a great place with lots of info -
As long as it's an open bed trailer it will fit, the trunk is what will jam you up if your going in an enclosed trailer.

Where you been Bubber, he's been back for almost 2 weeks and were already planned a MD in Bogalusa LA...get with the times brother!!

This could get as wild and crazy as that party they just had there in NOLA!
