    I am preparing a "needs" list for my rebuild of my 87 this winter. I'm looking for a hitch. If any one out there has one to spare at a reasonable cost-- please let me know. Also if anyone knows where to get a master rebuild kit (rings, gaskets, etc.) please chime in.

    there is a product out there called " ACRYSOL " made by Kent Automotive Products that is specifically designed to remove adhiesive products. Primarilly used for removing body moldings on cages---- but I've used it for everything from bug and tar remover ( as it does NOT effect paint ) to removing MAJIC MARKER FROM VINYL SIDING!!! (dont ask)

    I have to agree with the English chap on this one... Our bikes are not getting any younger, and parts may become harder to find as time goes by.... I say if it runs and you have room....

After reading the whole thread ( with a clear head ) I think I'm going to pass seeing how several posts- including yours- went back to stock after trying it. However- I do thank you for your help!!!!!!!!! GG:thumbsup:

    I was fumbling through last night and found something about changing the vac. line on 1st Gen to match V max. It's supposed to help with low end by equalizing vaccuum between cylinders... or something like that. Does anybody know where to find this thread or the info of which I ask???? Thanx much!! GG

    here's some more pics of my carbs set up. not real sure what you mean when you say solid cross over. ive heard of being able to put v max top end on this motor. dont believe this was done but not sure. holes in the air box were taped shut with duct tape. exhaust loads up (popping) collector has been opened previously. like i said, bike came with bag of goodies including K&N, just thought i would install it- found block of swiss cheese for filter top. thanks for response... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/mnharley/DSCF4693.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/mnharley/DSCF4690.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v604/mnharley/DSCF4694.jpg hope these help
