    You will also need to know that the 2nd Gen owners here are EXTREMELY jealous of the 1st Gens. They bought their Harley look-a-likes then realized what a real bike looks like and rides like, hence the jealously. But, don't worry, we understand and love them anyways... oops I mean

    The one big issue/difference is that the 83-early 85's can develop a 2nd gear issue. There are threads regarding that. Otherwise, WELCOME ! My friend has a blonde 83 and loves his 83 MK1.

    OK.. so I backed the bike out of he garage to ride the with the wifey to the U of A football game and the clutch sucked, there was a small puddle on the floor, so we took the car. Got home and removed the slave cylinder. What a pain ! But, the I rotated it with the bleeder down, bent the crap out of the metal holder that holds the wired together and got it down the bottom. SO.. the slave cylinder looks great inside, o rust, no pitting. Used a small honing tool just to clean it up and that made it almost perfect. SO... where is the best (cheapest and fastest) place to get a rebuild kit ? I also need the gasket for the cover and the seal in the block for the push rod. Anybody on here selling those parts ? I will probably get two of everything since I will do the 87 next just because I now will know how to do it. P.S. The Wildcats kicked Colorado's butt pretty good today.

    AZ riding?

    KIC replied to star4772's topic in Watering Hole

    We do ride pretty much year round. In fact my wife was not happy that we couldn't ride to the U of A game ( Beat the crap out of Colorado) today because when I backed the 89 out of the garage, there was very little to no clutch. ( just finished removing the slave cylinder tonight). Anyway, there is a lot to see out here in the southern end. Bisbee, Tombstone, Kitt Peak Observatory, Saguaro National Forest, Old Tucson, Desert Museum, Tubac, Mt Lemmon (depending on time of year) The wineries in Sonoita and I'm sure I have forgotten a few others. In the northern end, Sedona is a must, then you can shoot over to Jerome and Cottonwood has a few wineries, Williams is a cool little town west of Flagstaff ( part of Route 66). We have the Grand Canyon ( stay in Williams and take the Grand Canyon railway to the canyon ) Depends on time of year as to the best parts to ride. If you end up this way, give me a call, I am in Tucson, if you are down here you can have a place to stay.

    We had our first cold spell last night. Started mine up then shut he down... walked back out and low and behold.. my leak is back. Well I have the parts to (hopefully) fix it, so guess this is the time to do that. Also lost the clutch , so the slave cylinder gets rebuilt too !

    Glad you are OK. But, next time wreck the 2nd Gen..they are a dime a dozen and easily replaced. The 1st Gen is a prize. Hope you can resurrect it.

    trip to Sedona

    KIC replied to Sailor's topic in Watering Hole

    Just did the Williams (Route 66), Grand Canyon Railroad train to the Canyon, Sedona, Jerome trip two weeks ago. There are also several wineries in Cottonwood just outside of Sedona. In Williams there is a restaurant just by the RR tracks that has the best/biggest pie slices around. Have fun. Oh yea..ZION is a MUST do !!

    OEM...and if you even think about trying an aftermarket we will have to slap you so hard that the earth could shift off it's axis. Been there done that ! OEM all the way on the seals.
  18. KIC
    ABSOLUTELY !! The set of two pliers at Harbor Freight were worth every penny. Also, wipe just a little grease on the inside of the tubes to help slide down.
