  1. Hey, Ed. Was at Road America races too. I've gone the last 5 years and it gets better every year.
  2. Sign me up for the ice cream eating class. Those guys are crazy!
  3. I had some popping once and a carb sync and a shot of Sea Foam took care of it. AIS has not been touched and I've got 30,000 miles on it.
  4. Not so weird really. I have had more than few with master cyl bleed hole blocked
  5. Thanks for the tip. Will be trying it tomorrow
  6. The Carbon One bracket and relay work great
  7. Still have the best of them. Sold the rest. 1925 Chevrolet Touring 1934 Chev 5 window coupe street rod 1955 chev belair 2 dr hardtop 1962 chev impala convertible 1962 chev belair sedan 1983 fiat spider
  8. My did the same. Sounds like fuel pump. They can fail completely or be intermittent. I went aftermarket - any auto parts store should have a Mr. Gasket 42S but you need to be sure to shut your fuel off every time you park the bike since it doesn't have a check valve. Other options are to replace the contact points in your pump or use a pump with a check valve. Search for posts as there are many
  9. Hey molders, I use this: http://www.echoproducts.com/echoaccessories/echopluggo.html for cell phone mount on my handlebars. I ran a fused wire from the battery to the supplied lead. It charges my iPhone while I listen to music and use the turn by turn navigation. I listen through a Chatterbox communication system with spreaders in my helmet. Rarely have taken a cell call while riding but can easily. Carry a zip lock plastic bag and rubber bands in case of rain
  10. I use a 42s and I always turn the fuel petcock off
  11. I had a friend with a V8 Gremlin also. Unbelievably fast and can't believe we are still around to talk about it. Most people don't believe you could get that big engine in the little car
  12. True for both buildings and there are a few things for sale but really pricy. With the new building and some of his bike collection I stopped in to check it out
  13. Check VR Tech/suspension - there are instructions to make them and install. Did that a few years ago and worked out great
  14. I saw that Indian they dug up at their shop in LeClaire last weekend. Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. There is no way it could ever be put in running condition and of course they had no intent to do that. Just a piece of sculpture in the shop that's not for sale
  15. I have the 4-2-4's and like 'em. I do wait until I'm out of the neighborhood at 6:30am before I get on it hard. No jetting needed
  16. I had this happen on an Honda GL1000. Got a ride to an auto parts store and purchased a new battery. While installing it I found that the negative battery cable at its grounding point to the frame was loose. I never new for sure if the battery shorted internally due it's failure or the bad ground caused the battery to get hot internally and fail. New battery and cleaned and tightened the ground cable and was good to go.
  17. I had a key cut at ACE with no problem. They copied it from my every day use key
  18. Last Saturday in August sounds good. Thanks for your efforts
  19. Unbelievable, thanks for sharing
  20. JohnT, I drive across that bridge every day and I'm afraid that story is going to haunt me every time!
  21. With a carb overflowing like that could fuel have gotten into the cylinder, past the rings and into the crankcase?
  22. Not sure of make but it resembles my 1925 Chevrolet. It doesn't appear to be a chev but the model year would be close to '25
  23. Plus one on Zion but Bryce is pretty cool also.
  24. Hey MikeG in SC, if you or the significant other are traveling Illinois toll roads again and you drive through the iPass or even a Coin Only toll without paying you can pay online. I believe there is a time limit but there is a website where you pay without penalty. Recently I had a rental car and didn't have my iPass and turned off the toll road and the exit was .60 coins only. I had no change so drove through. Paid the .60 online when I got home. If hadn't they would have tracked me down though the rental car company and ticketed me. Don't ask me how I know
  25. With that effort I suspect his journey is just beginning. Congratulations!
