  1. The fork braces arrived this morning... Saturday, and I'll be working on the shipping Sunday and Monday. So, most everyone in the US should be getting their brace by the end of the week. To keep the price down to last years I committed to more than were ordered. So if anyone has been sitting on the fence about picking one up, shoot me a PM, and we'll get you taken care of. I'll also be posting an ad in the classifieds shortly. ManyThanks.
  2. I tried to delete this thread but didn't have any luck...
  3. AND YOU DON'T FEEL THE LEAST BIT GUILTY.....
  4. Cool!!! Ya never know, with all the trouble we all have bleeding our cotton pickin' brakes, this might be just the ticket... Am I seeing visions of maybe another group buy on the horizon???
  5. Any body that builds a motor that runs counter-clockwise can't be good.....
  6. I just looked up all his posts since the begining, and it looks like he's been pissed off at the scoot from the git-go.. I think the bike needs another home with some lovin'........ Somebody close rescue it!!
  7. I've been thinking about doing something like that to. Get another reserve plug and drill and tap it for a 1/4" bib fitting and hook it up to larger storage for bleeding. The Speedi Bleeder is interesting. Although I didn't look that hard, they don't seem to have a listing for just the bleeder without the adapter.
  8. Sweet ride. I thought the 99's only came in two tone silver, and a silver/maroon??

    The trailer seems like it's gonna be neat looking, but I gotta ask a question. On single wheeled trailers with the wheel in the back... what does it do to the 'tongue' weight on the bike? With a standard trailer the load can be balanced to give the correct amount of tongue weight, and the Uni-Go single has the wheel in the center which I suppose could be balanced somewhat. But with a single rear wheel the more payload you stick in there the more the weight on the rear axle of the bike will increase. I think it's something like half of the total, or a 300# payload will put an extra 150#'s on the bike's rear axle. I think....?? Correct me if I'm off base here....
  10. The rotor I listed above has been sold........
  11. Yeah, I'd suggest replacing the kill switch too. It's worn and probably only making very lite contact. Any pressure at all and the contact is lost. However.... before doing the replacement spray some contact cleaner in there and toggle the switch back and forth a bunch. It may just be dirty..?? On the charging issue. I don't know of any wiring close to the shift spline coming out of the stator cover. That hole is seperate from anything on the inside of the stator. There is a neutral switch on the inside that does have a grond to it, but I don't think that would have anything to do with the charging circutry???
  12. A lot of people don't know that they are dealing with ABS. I use ABS Weld and glass roving. Same result, but not nearly as messy... And.... All ABS cracks eventually...
  13. Maybe in WV it's considered a motorcycle, but here in CA, although it's considered a MC the rider doesn't need to have an MC indorsement to legally ride. I'm sure each state's VC's are different, and probably 60 interpretations for all 50 states....
  14. The steering wheel does it for me.... Car!!

  16. OK, $75 bucks plus shipping via USPS Priority Flat Rate @ $10. LMK.
  17. Rocket called last night, and after we stopped BS'ing I went outside and was treated to a lightening display like I've never seen in these parts for close to 40 years.. It constantly thundered for over a half hour. I know in the midwest this is probably a drop in the bucket, but around here it's non-existant... until last night. We generally get one cold storm the first part of June and it dumps 6" to a foot on snow in the Sierras, but this one was warm and came right out of the south. Amazing stuff for a California Boy....
  18. I yam...I yam.... and it is a PITA like Bob said. But I'm getting there...
  19. Tanks guys... that's what I needed to know.......
  20. Since I'm too lazy to go out and check myself I thought I'd pop the question. When removing the rear upper frame assembly, do I need to worry about it being a part of the support holding the frame together, and will it make things go very bad...very quickly if not supporting the chasis. Tom Patterson's old '90 parts bike took a shot to the rear and bent up the trunk mount and frame, and lo-and-behold I actually have another upper... to replace the bent one. The rest of the frame looks pretty straight. I just wanted to make sure that the whole rig doesn't go ka-plooey when I take out that last bolt....
  21. I'm looking at one of the big pictures and it's a grill, not a griddle, and it looks like it would be a PITA keeping it clean. Unless you only did hot dogs.... I think I'd opt for a regular 2 burner and pick up one of those cast iron griddles with the ridges in it for grilling.
  22. Sure looks like one to me.... Wish there were more pics. Just make sure it's all there. Maybe someone will chime in that know a little bit more about it... Squeeze!!! where are you???
  23. Go ahead and shoot me the paypal Tim. Gotcha covered.
  24. Take a deep breath... now exhale slowly... The group buy has ended as of last night. I've shot an email off to the builder, and should be getting enough braces to cover everyone's order. It shouldn't take very long and expect to ship within 10 to 14 days barring any 'murphs'.
