swifty. i don't see anything humorous , about your ordeal. i did virtually the same thing, loading mine into a trailer, that was obviously NOT designed to haul motorcycles. the back tire, WILL spin large planks (2"x12")"s, backwards at a high rate of speed,before you can say "damit"! these brown "86's, seem to be the worst. lol just jt

Leveling unit question

chris. on my 86, the pressure holds, until i elect to change it, key on acc., start, or off! when i let the bike sit for a few days, and start it up, the pressure builds up to whatever it was set at, to replace what might have leaked out. if yours is different, then MINE must be screwed up. just jt -

RIGHT ON , man!!!! i can see where the tach, and iso grips, will add LOADS of low end and mid range torque! just kidding! keep us posted on all the "other" mods that you do! just jt
-
if yours, is like a first gen, and they ALL are, it will "gracefully lay over on the engine guards and saddlebag guards", OR it will fall COMPLETELY over, and break up some plastic and mirrors. it all depends on how much time you have , to "slow her down", before the fall. i read this in a book somewhere i think, or maybe it really happened! plastic is easy to repair, but mirrors are expensive. just jt
-
ken, it all depends on what kind of finish/life expectancy, you are looking for. for the "toughest" paint , go with the "epoxy kit", for the "cheapest " way, go with the $15.00 paint. know this , though. with the cheap paint, you will have to repaint a LOT more often, than with the epoxy. just jt

i am currently working on a "F.A.A." project for out local county airport. in the contract, it states "ALL materials, tools, labor, WILL be AMERICAN"!!! no exceptions! yeah , right. all of the local and some statewide suppliers, deal with only imported stock. we were forced to use steel from china, re bar, made in mexico, electrical components, made in japan, and china, and wire made in mexico. it seems , that NOTHING, is made here at home , anymore. just jt
