    We did it in a cage about 3 years ago while visiting my Bro in Kalispel. What scenery!!

    Man I can't believe I've forgotten, and I've rebuilt all the early mark I calipers. If I foggily remember correctly the rear caliper piston is larger than the fronts, and they sell the seals and 'O' ring seperately for each side/piston??? I guess the front 'kit' came with 2 of each so only takes one 'kit', and is priced that way. The rear seals have to be bought seperately as there isn't a 'kit' so you'd need to buy 2?? i think........

    When I went to the IMS show last year I picked up a couple of bottles of this stuff http://www.metalgloss.com/ to try. Not cheap, but I'm impressed. It a 2 part system. Polisher/remover, and sealer. When aluminum is exposed to air it will surface oxidize and loose it's high gloss. If let go long enough it'll pit the surface. I guess that's why Yamaha coats all the aluminum. More to keep it maintenence free than as a finish. Yep.... already done the risers too. They haven't been installed yet, but they'll be on the '91 shortly.

    I'm not sure what the price of a new slave is now, but I picked up one from http://www.buckeyeperformance.com/ for around $65 bucks a couple of years ago. The difference between the cost of a rebuild kit and new was only about $25, so went with new. There's also http://www.ysppart.com/ in Seattle and they give 25% off yamaha parts. The insides of a clutch slave get pretty ugly after 20+ years, as water settles in the cylinder and rusts things up a bunch. Another reason to change fluids every year.....

    new MP3 player

    Condor replied to dray's topic in Watering Hole

    I don't own an IPOD, but my 12 y.o. does. So I have a question. What's the need to have 5000+ tunes stored on an IPOD or MP3 Player??? It's probably more than most major radio stations have in their library... It would take over 10 days to listen to them one at a time, and heaven help you if you maybe repeated a few favorites. I would think finding tunes in memory would also be a problem. I donno...just curious....

    Great looking motor Bob, but I'd suggest putting a coat of something on the polished aluminum or it'll dull up in about a year. Don't ask me why I know that..... just take my word for it. Here's a set of passenger boards that I had done for the '83, but decided to put on the '91 with all the bling-bling..... You might want to have yours done too.... http://www.cast-aways.com/images/vrpassengerpadsm.jpg

    1stGen Mark II Royales come stock with a nifty trunk light and vanity mirror combination. They can sometimes be found on Ebay. They're run thru a contact switch, but I bet they can be modified to actuate with something like a mercury switch. To my knowledge mercury switches aren't being made any longer because of EPA regs, but there has to be a substitute.

    All the 2ndGens picked up PC545's. It looks like all the 2ndGens received their batteries. The only outstandings are two PC680s that are on backorder. Thanks to everyone for putting this one together. ~Condor~

    Last year we got them for $195.00 plus shipping which was $25.00 here in the US, and $35 for Canadian. You can look into shipping to Oz. 16# 39"x12"x6" if you'd like. I'd have no problem mailing a set down under. Actually out of curiousity I just ran the numbers and it looks like shipping via Priority Mail would be around $75US.
