I wont get too involved with this, but I can tell you that Don's decision to charge for this site was not an easy thing for him to do. I can relate to Z factor and Bigfoot as some folks just dont get on here as much as say me. More than likely what will happen is that the tech library will still be openly viewable, but to post and use the rest of the site will have to cost. Other than help Don directly pay his medical expenses, I believe this is the only practical way to help Don recoup the thousand of hours and monies that he has pumped into this site for the last 5+ years. I can tell you that my money will be in the mail shortly, I know Don will, but I want to thank all you folks for all that you have and will do to help Don out

Well Cindy the results of them NOT putting this guy in prison will be catastrophic for HIM. Always thinking of you folks ('cept when I forgot to phone Dale ) keep up the fight and if the fella doesn't like it, TOUGH!

Still thinking about you bro, the phone is always on

Jeff, It was great to see you again my friend, and thanks for keeping it hushed. I'll get some of the pics up in a day or 2

Mine will be short, the people that push the envelope know who they are, they do it for fun. The moderators DO talk with eachother about deleting threads, we all agree on their deletion. Many times we will PM members that have a thread deleted and let them know why, but like mentioned we aren't going to do it everytime, especially to folks that have been here a while. You all know that you can go to a million different sites to state your opinions, this place is for comeraderie and helping fix our bikes. It is the best managed forum on the web, I'll put that statement up to anyone. You folks make this place what it is, we just have to steer it once in a while

I saw these deflectors when we were down at Jeff's on Friday and they look VERY good. They are made out of .125 aluminum and polished very well, I dont think any of you would be disappointed with them.

Steve, I have a seat off a '99, it isn't a pillowtop, but if you sent it to Rick Butler and have it modified it might fit the bill. If your interested shoot me a PM or call my cell and we can chat a bit.

Glad you got it figured out my friend, I know we were talking about it the other night...gotta keep Momma's feets clean -
Tom, You can take the pieces of the pinch bolt to any ACE hardware with a bolt bin and match it up there, I'm not sure on the exact dimentions. As as the front tire the front calipers should be taken off, 2 12mm bolts on each caliper and they will swing right out of the way. If you ever run into a problem feel free to give me a call, I can usually walk anyone through the majority of the repairs on the bikes.

Yeah it's go a lot to be desired, on that same left side just below the seats rear corner there is a rubber plug on the plastic shielding that will accomodate a cig lighter plug, might be an option for you. I have installed a few there on various bikes. BTW Thanks for your service there brother, spent 6 1/2 years in the yacht club myself

If you have black sludge in the reservior the system needs to be completely cleaned. I know you didn't want to hear that, but there is a return oriface in the rear master cylinder that can get clogged and lock the rear brake up. You do also know that the 1st gen has a linked brake system, the rear petal controls the rear caliper and the left front one. Make sure that you have the system properly bled, there is a bleeder up by the top of the stering head on the right side for bleeding the front.
