  1. Here is a Holley TBI. Might be expensive, but should do the trick.
  2. Glad to hear people are OK. Sucks for your loss, and hope for the best. Its really tough for a small business to have something like this happen.
  3. Here is American By ways
  4. OH MAN I cant believe someone missed the opportunity. Easy way to drain the tank. Insert key, start bike and ride. In about 2.5 hours the tank will be empty.
  5. E-bay can be your friend also. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2x-3-OHM-50W-Wirewound-Aluminum-Housed-Resistor-50-Watts-/271123010581?hash=item3f2030d415:m:m3xUzqrzbze60PX6kn_jQEg
  6. Ben in my "Favorites" bar for a long while.
  7. Works is pretty pricey. I think close to $700 or more. The Hagon is in $400-450 range I believe. Both are a rebuildable shock and when you call them the custom build to your needs. NO replacement shock has the air adjust ability as far as I have seen. Why I dont know. With the availability to remotely hide a air reservoir like on dirt bikes you would think they could.
  8. But.....It didnt help shock life at all from what I have read/heard. Its a roll of the dice how long it lasts.
  9. If it is not the hose to add air to rear shock, then it must be the belows vent hose they added thinking some how that would help the rear shocks live.
  10. Anybody who lived out in Texas or Oklahoma in the 70s or 80s heard his commercials for Southerlands. Whaoo Shoutherlads.
  11. I think he was the guy that did the Southerlands lumber yard commercials out west.
  12. That aint nothing brother. Ask anyone who has lived in southwest Oklahoma or northern Texas. If you dont get $1000 bucks of hail damage a year its been a good year. I have walked out to car before when there and it was like walking on marbles. It will scare heck out of you while driven, especially if you happen to get caught on the scoot in it. then your looking for cover.
  13. OH man. Actually my brother was the one to kind of make me "widen" my horizons on music. I had lived with him a bit when I was about 14. I was pretty much a Grand Funk Railroad fan, Alice Cooper, Hendrix. My brother was a teen in the 50's and didnt really car for the music at that time. But on road trips when we were in Mich we listened to all sorts of stuff. Do Wapp, Rock, surf music, big band, swing, and some cat by the name of Stevie Ray Vaughn. I really dig the blues most now I think. So the question was what music or artist might surprise you all? Alecia Moore, just really like her energy and range. Here is a link
  14. Yea Rick, and I guess we need to remember we are buying parts for "classics" not made anymore and parts are getting thin from dealer.
  15. A Victory XCT, no bills left over after Christmas. Oh and ISIS to wipe themselves off the face of the earth and leave us folks alone.
  16. Open the http://www.homedepot.com site to exterior lighting. Pick something purty out and wha la
  17. Thanks to our WW2 vets. My dad and father in-law included. Now I have to say when I first read the headline, I thought it was something someone said about these ISIS @#$turds
  18. You know Steve, with our winter folks down here I was really surprised they were not busier. I could eat one of those shaved prime rib flatbread again.
  19. Aint it the truth. Enjoy your moments now. Any of you all stationed in the TX, Ok, Col area in mid 70 thru 80's. Ever hears the song Love with end? How about Baby Blue. Do you know who wrote them and what bad he played in? LOL its kind of a hoot for us USAF guys.
  20. I'll stick to motorcycle related stuff. Otherwise will probably run out of band width or whatever. I had been riding off road dirt bikes for awhile off and on for a couple years then had a break. While at a friends house he had a yamaha dt 125 maybe and a Bultaco something. We go blasting off down a path, him on the yamaha and me on the Bultaco. Had to make a left hander kind of hard so I grabbed some rear brakes. Well I thought it was going to brakes. At that time the Bultacos were one of them bike the dang pedals were opposite of what I had been riding, so I got me the next lower gear very very quickly. Shortly there after I was picking my butt off the ground. Last time I think I rode anything with the reversed pedal deal. Dang Italians.......
  21. I was looking for a motor for a fellow on a different forum the other nite. When I saw the engine he needed and it was like 1300 I was surprised for sure. For that kind of money you can buy a complete bike almost for him.
  22. Many years ago when I worked in an independent auto shop, we had a car that sometimes run fine then stop. Sometimes many miles sometimes 5 min. After weeks of troubleshooting and guessing we found it purely by accident. Neighbor hood kid had dropped a golf ball in the tank. Fuel would get to a certain level, ball would float to pickup and block it. Car dies, suction lost ball drops and picks up fuel again and away we go. One of the dangdest things I ever saw. Once unleaded fuel cam around you didnt have to worry about that anymore.
  23. Jeff, you need to tell him about the separate triggering of the HID system. I may have the diagram you sent me for the switch with the warning light. Or you could give him the set up finally ended up using off the brake light.
