What do you mean turn knob? they are just a square you turn with a wrench. Also did your rebuild kit not come with the new master cylinder Piston?

Bad news, I pulled the carbs out and discovered water sitting!!! Drained the oil pan and clear water came out with the sludge coming out next.I don't think i can save this motor. Its the one with a title. so looks like i wont be rebuilding that motor. I am not even sure if its possible to get new rings, bearings etc for a build. If so i would like to bore them out a little ways add a little extra pep maybe make them a 1300 motor! Seems the cheapest way to go would be newer motor to be honest. I still am flirting with throwing the 2nd gen motor on the frame to be honest I can't believe I am saying this, I want more chrome!! I also like zags exhaust, thinking it be easier and cheaper with a 2nd gen motor! So probably get a 2nd gen wire harness, coils, tci box and fuel pump should take care of that. I am still trying to think what I want for a fuel cell. Maybe something kinda like an old fountain coke cylinder look... then run a half kegger air horn tank! LMAO. crazy ideas. I would like to still rebuild one of these motors tho it be in my spare time kind of deal. Seems I am doing ok at Sonic at the moment maybe work my way back into a factory job somewhere. I have got to be careful tho as I am dealing with some weird things going on still. The pain from the accident still likes to haunt me. Never did i think a fall at 35mph hour would still hurt this far out! Did not help that I kept trying to jump right back to things as soon as a I felt better! Kept getting in trouble by a Dr for that one! I did take and syphoned the water out of the intake area and sprayed in crap ton of pb blaster. Now on the kerosen subject. I have done that a very long time ago but back then Kerosene wasn't $9.83 a gallon either!!!!

Is that counting the frame? I think its time to start burning receipts!! I don't even want to know what I have in Tinker! LOL but started out with her costing $1,250.00!

Yes!! I was told of this stuff to, Right now out of all honesty I haven't popped the plugs out trying to get all salvagable plastic and such out of the way first. I did uncover a Markland Cruise control unit on the bike with the fairing. Along with that lighter in the picture. I am gonna try to fix that see if i can get it to work. Pretty interesting finds really, then i Have some box i have no clue what it is at the moment. I plan to strip all wires then wire up the necassary stuff myself. Charging, fuel pump, sparks etc. but right now need to evict the tenants in the 2 bikes!!

She is good looking had me wondering there a minute. I'm not a mummy tho so not sure my opinion counts here,. But I thought the same thing too Freebird! but she has posted elsewhere too so not sure. Bots are getting a little smarter...

Its even got a gun rack on top of the trailer!!

They don't call it chopper for no reason! My main concern is final drive! Then again I could switch swing arm out.

I don't know how many of you all know, but Brenda Posted on Facebook that her husband was found passed away just a couple days ago. She was up in Illinois tending to her family up there when the sheriff contacted her. So sending prayers out to her and family.

I don't even know where to find the Kerosene! Now I came across diesel used, or gas oil mix, PB Blaster and a friend suggested using something called Kroil! I had another reply on this thread don't know what happened to it strange!!

Just Hoaning the cylinder walls would also be good time to fix second gear, altho there is one bike that has 74.000 on it and the second gear is there... oddly enough, I thought they went at around 20-40,xxx miles.

I can't remember the guys name but I bought the 2 DVD or Cds from the guy who did the Vmax carb and motor rebuild so I have those. I actually have 3, the one that was totally exposed to the elements I knew Was or suspected to be froze up. The funny thing with that one everything appears bone dry... but I havent done much with it as the steering is locked straight on it.

I Haven't made any post in a while, been kinda watching 2 builds go on in the forum. One of the builds posted an ad from craiglist and it was way too good of a deal to pass up! Granted I have parts and such I have 3 motors that are locked up. Two of which had the boxes on them. These 2 some how had water sitting in the carbs so I am a little dumbfounded by that. They were litterally out in the woods, now i know these motors are bulletproof! Unfortunately the motors are froze stiff. I don't even know if the motors would be worth trying to free them up. Not even sure how to really go about it except for putting oil in the Cylinders. I flipped one upside down today to the water out of the top side. I also was looking at possibly putting a 99 motor in one of the frames. Would a 99 fit or bolt up? I know the exhaust is different and some other things are different. Just curious if it could be done. Another possibility would be getting a Vmax motor and putting that in. I saw these 3 bikes and thought of my chopper build, I just could not bring myself to tare down Tinker. She is a damn good bike. these bikes as far as plastics good there is only one set of saddle bags and a tour pack that was salvageable the rest of the plastics are brittle and no good. So now I am asking what you all would do.... also I got a bit of trivia for you guys to check out and see if you know what it is!

Yeah but now looking for motor...... the boxes were on the two that somehow had water in them which getting ready to start a thread about it.

Yes sir, Grind the dog ears off the side where the clamp comes together! neat little trick these lop eared varmits have suggested somewhere. That bushing I may have 6 good one not sure.... um I Just finished unloading all the parts and bikes. I Have pictures of them all on the trailer.

https://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/motorcycle/motorcycle-headlight-load-resistor-h4-led-headlight-bulbs/2932/6284/ Found this kn your link.... I wonder if it would work with our system.

Yeah and this Generation uses there smart phones while driving and killing us off!!! Now the Victory side of things, I really want one I am kinda fond of the High Ball. Only thing stopping me is the concern about being able to get parts for it. Also the Victory's I have seen I think are way over priced!! But thats just me!

Do you mind sharing this link to ebay to the wonderer whos been roaming from town to town and getting his kicks on route 66!! LMFAO

Just to add my Half wit pea brain idea to the mix, NITROUS MY MAN!! NITROUS!!

Hey I have dropped them too, but i have yet to see brittle plastics except for a tab i replaced on Tinker

Exactly!! lol um my bag in Tinker has, the yamaha tools 18, 20, 21 mm wrecn then the two ended "8 and 10" and another "10 and 12" then the thin wall spark plug wrench. I have autozone special screw driver with 2 bits you flip it around for smaller straight and phillips, Um needle nose pliers, regular pliers. something I added was a multimeter for trips. O and a test light, and a flashlight.

Sounds like fun!! This is what they make drills for however my newest bike the fairings cpt for the hole next to the side cover are in excellent shape as it had been setting in a house, or something all its life. the only reason it has a hole in the right fairing next to the side cover is the guy before me dropped it.

Just a silly question for you. Your taking the Venture right?
