  2. It would have been fun bringing that 63 vette back to life. Maybe the dust would blow off a little. Wonder what made it sit. the red one sold for about the same price
  3. david silver spares. honda crusin image.net in japan. takes about 6 weeks to get parts. but you save a lot. might try cycle parts warehouse 866/926/2427 there is a good recycler in ohio you have to email Brenda. but cant remember co name. well remembered it its Brenda from bikeboneyard. I have bought quite a few parts there there no contact other than net
  4. the biggest thing is all the dang pee bottles. road workers hit them while mowing. have to wear it till they get to a restroom. nasty
  5. Back when i worked on ih trucks there was a porn site one letter off of ih tec site. Would blow your mind the first time it happened. What they go crazy on there site. Then you would get emails from them then you had to block there path
  6. When you use a multi meter to check power. Do you know you really have useable power? Or should you use a automotive bulb of the correct LOAD to verify? Just a observation from use. Ever happen to you yet? Also have you earned any other test facts?
  7. you left faster than I can type. guys have any pics of trunks you have retro fit on a gen2
  8. thanks I didn't see this coming:thumbsup:
  9. well there probably still wondering where that nut went when there machine fell apart. Send them a bill for the finders fee.
  10. well puc you take as much stuff as i do but i dont do tire work as no center stand. and all that stuff has seen use. the only thing i keep forgetting to buy is tire plug kit after it teaches me a lesson you can bet ill remember. good thread:thumbsup:
  11. well i rebuilt mine on a 83 model. was pretty much straight forward job. the impeller is the only thing that was fun to replace on shaft. lol
  12. did away with my switch rather replace bulbs, than have them off. More light during the day the better and at nite.
  13. I would pass on that one. You could buy a real nice second gen and just ride it. granted there top end is slower to get there but whats the hurry.
  14. Well just remembered this is couple people I know took a 10 foot x 6inch plastic sewer pipe put caps on had up in rafters to increase the air reserve would take about three of them. And make sure the supply line to them is looped 8 inches above them. So water stays in compressor. They have been using theres ove 10 years.
  15. I have there 100lber. The front leg wont take much abuse{bends}. have used it for years. The piping tends to wear out and the hose barbs do to but I have used the h out of it. First thing to get rid of is the dead man valve. I would buy it again. Your going to be waiting on your compressor a lot. and will need a water bowl with regulator.
  16. I just payed 119.00 for mine. guess should have looked around.
  17. the gvw looks awful light check the vin in the front window see if its the same as sticker sound fishie. my last Mitsubishi pickup the ecu was 1000.00 to replace. door jam looks silver but the truck is white am I correct on that
  18. wow that's never a good experience. I'm glad everything worked out for you two. now to make the bike like new again.
  19. well I think I was there. couldn't stay awake and the boys room had my number. Where is that con found patch. had to listen to my own music head was pounding all nite. boy he's spoiled us. i'll be there tonight. patch I keep getting into trouble.
  20. well have so many sets and the stickers are long gone. think they would take them back
  21. cant be to bad starts and runs. good price to me. have a 01 don't have any real mechanical problems other than lack of maintance.
  22. that will be a fun project. I tryed to buy a 57 indian but couldnt find a place to store or work on it. Think about that bike alot. Looks like you have had this a while. Have you seen the new guns that remove rust without touching steel? I'm jealous.

    buying parts

    well I got my parts from Mi. The piston they sent fits a xr not a xl so was a waist of my time. Filled out a conflict complaint with paypal on the one from Japan got a refund asap. Never left japan. So I found a used cylinder and piston from a recycler asked them a couple of times if they knew it was off a xl so will see when I get it. Also bought a new cylinder from David Silver Spares in Pa. Not going to hold my breath on either one. That did away with a cheep bike for grandson. but to late to stop now. He has seen the bike.
  24. sorry for your loss. prayers
