I should strap mine to a pallet and ship to you to finish... Gonna have to hoist it into the rafters and forget I have it for the next few months.

it's to bad you didn't live here in E.TX other wise I'd give ya a hand, I love wiring jobs. This next winter I plan on totally redoing the wiring on mine and replacing all connectors I can with weather pak connectors so they are more secure and also better at keeping the water out of the connections. Plus I'd like to do a 4 place fuse box instead of just the 2 place one so I can isolate some of the circuits like some of the add-on stuff.

Considering the 3 month battery life, it has either a fried stator or a fried regulator. If it's lucky it won't end up in the burn pile. Fixin' to wash my hands of the whole mess. The 50 year old Honda too... what lurks behind its clutch cover is a locked up mess. Both have hit the no longer worth the headaches worth more to me as targets stage.

To meet and have a wrenching session as well as riding time, would be an honor. So how about it? Are you in? Keeping fingers crossed...

Whatchertalkin'aboot, Wyllis? Grin

1st things 1st, thanks for correcting that "engrish" of mine... Roll Eyes

Secondly, what's this about a registration fee?

Do we get handouts? Tea and scones? Coffee and biscuits? Cola and sandwiches?
Cheesy

Table dancing ? Grin

I can't detune my carb, Verslagen, I ain't finished enjoying myself !

I had been told about washers compressing the springs, I'll do that (the next time I come round to removing the exhaust... Tongue

)

Ahhh... riding season at last !!! Cool

I believe Versy has graciously offered his time and residence to have some people from the forum over to discuss bikes and whatnot, probably over a beer or softdrink. Bike chicks and dudes hanging out on a Saturday afternoon, what could be better?

You'd have to beat the scrap value after the fun of turning them into little chunks...

Neither one is worth dumping any more time or money into.

Got home a little while ago. It was awesome!! MJ got an oil change, a new chain tensioner and muffler. Had Angus beef dogs, coleslaw, greek pasta salad and peanut-apple-raisin salad. We have a tentative plan to meet again in two months where I will get my tensioner and who knows what else.

I rode with MJ till we hit the 57 where I am sure he was happy to ditch the slow-poke with the almost broken in engine Grin

Thanks to Versy for his time and inviting us to his abode. Best of luck with those other project bikes!!!
