    Brad, what's the size of that nut?? I have four of them here, but not sure they're thesame size??? These are 29mm face to face on the outside and 20.9mm on the inside. I used to have wire loom for an '88..probably still do but can't find it...

    Yes it has been hot here squeeze. I picked up an Elmo Sonic a while back off Ebay. Elmo's are made in Germany so it must be a good one.... It's big enough to do one carb body without the side covers. Ran me somewhere around $200 bucks. Anything bigger, to do a complete bank, was way beyond my budget...

    I've thought about that myself. Maybe.... if you have a worn out side stand the bike will take a dump????? Or maybe... the psi won't be as accurate or repeatable with weight on the shocks. But.... the second gens don't have a center stand. Or maybe.... the added strain on the CLASS pump will do some damage?????

    Geeze, didn't I put a link to their website in a previous post???? Maybe not... I'm keeping it a secret...

    When I tried to respond to a PM this morning the banner pics were missing. The drop down menus still worked so maybe an administrator was tweaking the script a bit??

    Once it starts to be really successful the Mex Policia will interpret some law to squeeze more mordida out of the riders.

    Go with what you have.. They all will quite down a bit when the clutch lever is pulled in.

    On the left hand side of the motor between the stator cover and the middle gear cover there's a square rubber plug. Pull it up and walah!! There it is...

    Here's another type. Not sure what the manufacture is, but suspect VentureLine because most of the other stuff on the scoot is VL. \ Now that I look at it closer I think it's the same one....

    I wouldn't say I'm DAMAN , I just think reverse bleeding is the way to go. If the clutch is full, and I'm just looking to change out the fluid, I do it like everyone else from the top at the reserve. When the lines are empty, or really full of air pockets, I find reverse bleeding.. injecting fluid in at the slave... works the best. Some folks swear by the Mity-Vac, but when I tried using one I ended up swearing at it.... I might also add that when changing clutch fluid, Speed-Bleeders make life a lot easier. I picked up one of the reusable plastic bags from SpdBl when I bought all the bleeders from them. I just shove it on the bleeder valve and pump and fill at the reserve. I suppose you could make your own, but for... I think??... $6 bucks, what the heck....

    Rather than rebuild the one on the '83, I bought a new one from Rick at Buckeye on his recomendation, and that the rebuilds don't last. I think the rebuild kit ran around $30 bucks and a new one ran $64. The reason for all that rust is water is heavier than DOT3 and settles to the bottom of the system and creates micro-pits in the wall of the cylinder. Another reason to bleed the clutch often.... which reminds me... gotta go bleed a clutch...

    I thinkin'... If the tank has an inch thick of goo at the bottom, and it is cutting off the fuel flow, that's way too much goo than would have been created by one tank of fuel evaporating. I wonder if a previous didn't dump a tank sealer mix in the tank while it was still on the bike to get rid of rust and it didn't work and settled to the bottom?? I'd see if some of the gunk could be scraped off with a long screwdrive and then testing to see which chem will work the best at removal.... Maybe get a good look at what the stuff really is??

    Are you talking about side to side wobble, or rotational movement???

    I used to look to Sony for quality products, but lately I've run into some poor performing stuff. TV, VCR, DVD, etc. So I've been staying away from them.

    If you have a picture published to the web you can highlight, copy and paste it to your post. I've done it before, but it's a hastle doing it that way so i stick to the the file management tool.
