- Back at it. Thanks! I will check out those sources!
- Back at it. What is a good source for engine gasket kits, upper and lower?
- Back at it. Okay, I've been MIA for a while. Back in May 2018 I was working on the bike: I've finally gotten around to putting a few hours into the project again. This may be a long-term project. But today, with a little help from…
- Rebuilding my '91. The journey begins. Finally managed to get the exhaust collector off, but I sheared one of the studs when the nut refused to back off the header stud. [image: DSC_8494.thumb.JPG.cf83caa66a529510a8266f0a74826cfb.JPG] Getting the header pipe…
- Rebuilding my '91. The journey begins. 21 hours ago, RC1237V You can also use a diamond tipped Dremel bit, or Tap-Out acid.........ask me how I know....... I hope I don't have to find out!

- Weird idle on my '90 (video) Compression check OK on that cylinder? Are the carb boots between the carb and the head dried/hardened and possibly leaking air?

- Single front brakes conversion on 4th gen [image: View Post]YoshiHNS, on 01 June 2010 - 09:08 AM, said: Makes more sense to just paint and hide the carriers as much as possible. You don't need those breaks until someone cuts you off. I don't understand why you…
- Clunking in Front end My first thought is steering head bearings. However, I had a clunking from the suspension when I was riding over bumps. I've just overhauled the forks (new seals and oil, and a thorough cleaning) and I am sure that the…
