Normally you do not need to open the rad cap, just check the overflow level and add from there if it shows low. As Pete said , it self bleeds. The only time you need to add from the rad cap is when you do a complete drain and fill, in those cases fill, run until thermostat opens, blip throttle several times to move trapped air up, top off, repeat a few times then replace cap. Check overflow after a ride while hot and after it cools. Add if needed.

Hi Derrick, glad to see you found you way here. I told you, great group here with lot's of info to share. Now you may as well pony up the $12 and join the insanity. Jay

Good luck on the bracket,,, I have never seen them used and in good condition on eb ay. New ones never go for much less than list.

Sorry for your loss Kic. RIP Sgt. Walker. Thank You for your service and ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. A visit to ANC is a truly inspiring and humbling experience . God Bless the souls who rest eternal there.

Geez,,, $12 for Spam that's taken from the trash! The cost of fine dining sho has gone up

I do believe that "zerk" is for greasing the rear brake pad lining so they don't squeek,,,, Don't worry about putting too much in there, any excess will fall on the rear tire and lubricitize the rubber alloy's thereby giving a lower rolling resistance, with a 7 MPG increase. I hope this helps to clear up your long standing mystery

Don't matter how many time I see him tell that story, I laugh every time

the '01 has 73373 Starting ,,,,,,,,,, 80272 Ending. Unless we get more good riding days. the '08 has 21350 Starting ,,,,,,,,,, 24535 Ending

Darn,,, read this a bit to late I was at the Breslin Center (Home of the MSU Spartans) today for a High school Girls semi-final basketball game. Coulda had lots of pics. Maybe tomorrow, our team is in it for the Championship tomorrow at noon. Go MUSTANGS!!!

Be sure the small rubber washers are under all the screws.

I too get that error lately, and long waits for page loads. If I go to another site right away, it's fast, so there is something going on. I thought it was my ISP since no one else was complaining.

No No.... When I checked 2 weeks ago 1 US dollar was worth .78 canadian. Back in the early 70's the USD was almost double what the canuk buk was worth.

The missus and I were going to go to a show in Canada and I found it would add quite a bit more to buy show tickets and a room with USD. We stayed home. I remember when it was the other way around when I was in High school, we could go to Windsor and get a steak dinner for 2 bucks and change!

BRIGHT PINK would be one I haven't seen a lot of.

Don, I gave up a 100K+ a year job that did not require travel but, it was 12 hours a day 6&7 days a week. It was a hard decision but one I do not regret. I now work part time for peanuts and even though the money does not flow like it once did, I am much happier now. I didn't realize how much of life passed me by while I was chasing the $$$ Only you and Eileen can know what's best. What ever your decision, make peace with it and move on with life.

I had my garage slab done by the pro's. That's some hard work! 6" slab with 8"grid rebar wire and shredded fiberglass in the mix, I don't think it will ever shift even if it does crack. 19 years so far and all is good.

I'd fly to Washington state, rent a bike and head south on the pacific coast highway.

Jeannie and I send our condolences to you Abdul and your family. R.I.P Shah.

Here's a few of one that didn't get stuck often. Boy I miss that truck. It's the blue one. Mud, snow, sand,,, didn't matter,

I'm sure you've heard the saying,,, "Trust but Verify" Especially true with LD buys. That's the beauty of this site, it can raise your comfort level when making a long distance purchase when there is a member close by the prospect. I'm in Detroit and the trike we bought for my wife was in Atlanta, Ga. A VR member down there did a pre inspection for us before I made the 12 hour drive with lots of cash in hand. Happy to hear it's not as bad as your first report. Heal up yourself and the bike then get out and have lots of miles & smiles.

I don't care what you drive, unless it's lifted high enough so as not to bottom on the ice layer and aggressive enough snow tires you're gonna be stuck in those conditions.

My first thought is, why didn't you have a closer member do a pre inspection BEFORE you made the drive . Now that you have it, I hope you can make it to your liking fairly cheap.
