  1. I wouldn't bother rebuilding the slave. They're not that expensive and the difference between new and a rebuild kit is about $30 bucks. However.... check the expansion hole at the bottom of the clutch reserve first to see if it might be clogged and causing the slipping. IT doesn't make sense that a '99 would need anything more than a good bleed.
  2. Gotta remove the fairings to get to the front screws. I imagine it could be done, but it's a PITA... Besides it's not that hard, and makes life so much easier...
  3. AWESOME!!!!

    Yeah, and I've seen those videos. Stupidest things I've ever watched, but they do have an entertainment factor. They never scared me a bit... a lot of them are very funny... Heck if we got frightened after watching every idiot post on U-Tube nobody would ever ride.... I stand by the 6x10, chock, and rear ramp gate method all day long. Nothing scary about it.
  5. Thanks for the link Kev. I think it's time to pick up a set of those points. I just checked a set on the spare pump I picked up off eBay and they look pretty good, but the '99 pump is getting real quite so I think it's time to expand my 'stash' a bit...
  6. I'm not sure what a 2ndGen has because I've never had to deal with it yet, but on the 1stGen the gear indicator is located next to the clutch slave on the engine and may have a problem. You'll need to remove the middle gear cover to check it out... Maybe a 2ndGen has a different system, and if so, I'm sure someone will chime in....

    On the garage he needs a garage door opener, and some padding for his head when he comes out.... On the trailer it's a fine job of over-engineering on a rarely used item, but 3.5 minutes to load a bike?? What happened to a multi-use 5x10 utility trailer with a chock mount and a rear ramp? Ride on and ride off. 30 secs on, and 30 secs off.... and no calisthenics. Whew!! Use it in between rides to make a dump run...
  8. Actually 5 of them are.... Been thinking about parting out the '93, but haven't totally made up my mind yet.
  9. Can you still find them?? or most of them....
  10. Understand your feelings Steve. I have the same problem, but I just can't seem to get rid of old friends, I just find new ones....
  11. Go get some Valvoline MC wet clutch specific 20-50w motor oil and change the engine oil. That should solve your problem.
  12. Need to call Hannigan, but I bet it's a #30.... Had to go buy one to replace the gas struts on the hatchback of my Firebird. Big sucker....
  13. Wow!! Nice find. I picked up an as new Nolan 103 NCom Helmet in my size with the Bluetooth headset installed for a 'Buy It Now' of $75 bucks with free shipping. The guy had worn it once, and he had all the docs to go along with it. Almost broke my arm hitting the bin button. Anyone else??
  14. Ya know what might be fun?? Turn this into an Ebay Gloat Thread.... What is your best eBay score that you can think of, and Gloat about it here.... Whatcha all think??
  15. True, but it still happens... Some folks just never learn..
  16. Sorry didn't look at the auction. We're fairly equal in eBay activity. I've been on since '98 and 660 transactions. I used to sell, but haven't for years. Just
  17. In the eBay world I see a lot of items selling for a buck with $20 shipping fee's. Your is still gloat-able at $7 bucks. Most eBayer's are aware of loading up the shipping practice, but my apologies for not being more enlightening....
  18. Was the shipping free.... ?? And you know the reason I'm asking....
  19. Ran my '83 with 50,000 on the odo for 3,000 miles and it didn't burn a drop. Now that's like new....
  20. Yep, you don't want those.... I think they are either 2006 or 2007. Anything before or after is OK.
  21. Pretty average. Nothing to be worried about.
  22. Condor

    Yep

    That's gonna be my theme song.... Love it!!
  23. That's my thinking also. On my 6x10 the RSV fits comfortably but not a lot of room to spare.... The weight would be OK as boat trailers usually have 3500# axles.
  24. Probably due for an upgrade anyway......
