I don't get it! Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

The zerk is a genetic holdover from a previous motorcycle incarnation, like nipples on men. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Likely the carbs need removal and service, and all fluids changed. Hydraulic clutch and brake cylinders may need fixing, but othe than that everything else is normal maintenance..... like new tires, etc. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

See my post about Pinwall........ I won't do business with them anymore and best of luck to those who do. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Air filter box, battery and battery box. One can then reach the two under screws but will likely find them siezed requiring small vice grips or other tool that fits. I would reinstall the TCI box on top of the air cleaner...... helps keep it dry. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Those darn immigrunts anyway. Driving up prices and all. My family lived there for several years until the poor economy of the region forced a move. Nice place to visit, but.............. Now there was this little Danish bakery down on Hastings that made the absolute bestest mmmmmmm.... Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Just keep your wits about you as the manual has several important errors in it. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Question....... WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO LIVE THERE ?? Is there no space left on the continent? Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

The involved systems are...... Unloader valve (mechanical) Start capacitor Crossover switch (mechanical) Run capacitor Also possible is a failed armature bearing causing armature to field coil contact. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Having ridden my Ventures now for 27 years, I don't think it a big bike at all......just the right size to get the job done well. Now Goldwings are big, so big and heavy they require a reverse gear. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

I would first suspect the shock from the pothole impact caused a wire disconnect. Check all radio connectors. Pere, in Tacoma WA USA

Does it have glow plugs, and are they heating up? Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

I knew I left that thing somewhere important!!! Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Yeah, I know.......I can't remember my own phone number because I don't call myself. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Prices are up because Walmart wages are up. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Supposed to function only in key ACC position. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Maybe you should slow down as wind resistance may have stressed the piece to the breaking point. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

To lose weight you could train one of your grandkids to ride it and then chase them on foot. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

That extra line is for the positve vent system. Simply cap it off to keep dust out. All new carberated bikes have it. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

A sluggish return is more likely due to sticky friction. Check the slide bore for smoothness, and both the slide and bore for varnish buildup that can be gently removed with a mild solvent. The slides should move smartly without slamming closed, but close easily/softly. -Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Never seen just one carb on e-bay, only complete bank of 4. Might need to buy a bank, then sell off the other 3. Hopefully, someone had a parts bike that is willing to separate. -Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

WOW!!$$$.......Gonna need a team.....I'm up for it...... soon as you relocate here. Those are quick...... no room for driving error with power on. Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

No. That's no normal. Was the emergency 'off' switch hit by chance? Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

No. What are you doing taking your hands off the bars? Firing a machine gun over the w/s? I should have known. BTW, you can achieve negative caster by slamming your bike into a wall doing 100 mph. Otherwise, negative caster ain't gonna happen. http://yospeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/100304-wheel-alignment-caster-positive.jpg -Pete, in Tacoma WA USA

Yes, a thin film of synthetc grease is all that is reguired to ease the assembly. Pete
