  1. It was tight but I got mine back together. I did the same as you and stuck the new seal to the cover and you just have to play around with it and move it at some angles that you would not think would help then all of a sudden it plops right where it needs to go. Just a thought, you did remember the rear one will go back on the opposite side as the front one did ! Right? then most of us have been there.
  2. hi Randy, did you drill a hole in your center stand and just use a bolt to mount the metal wheel or did you have to put some type of bearing in? Thanks Ron Good idea Randy:thumbsup2:
  3. Hmmmmmm???? Doing alot of doughnuts?
  4. Thanks everybody
  5. My starter button feels like it wants to stick a little and feels a bit stiff. It is still cold here but it feels gummy when I press it, any suggestions?
  6. Something else Ive heard people doing is to put talcum powder on the motor at any suspicious areas and sit back and watch, any leak will discolor the white powder thus making a hopefully easier find!! Just a thought
  7. Wow, comming from Squeeze that sounds like a big green light to let that motor crank some!!! Hey Squeeze can you just say that for me and I will save it till the weather breaks here then ride mine like I stole it!!!! He may have a overflow tube routed wrong causing it to puddle up somewhere on the motor and not dripping down to the ground:detective:
  8. :happy34:I looked at the other photos of the bikes build and see how he replaced the air cleaner. hope that works for him. I would like to hear her running also. I thought that bike was a awesome looking one when it was in blue paint with the saddlebags. Keep up your hard work and enjoy her.
  9. My question is how did he get it to run without the air filter?????
  10. My 89 has chrome around the fuel filler door. Does anyone else? Is that a yamaha option?
  11. Is the MK1 83 - 85? It won't fit an 89 will it?
  12. I can vouch for that, the wife and I where in Charleston saturday, and it was nice. Alot better than the snow piles I left at home in Ohio! We ate at a local place around Folly Beach called Bowen Island Seafood. Very local and good food
  13. I am looking for the chrome fairing vents.. Love those
  14. Yep, you guys down there are luckey to have Brad down there! Sure miss him around the great lakes.
  15. lets get some thoughts on the group cutting our hair like that to show muffin our support!
  16. looks like he's practicing for the pond at Dons to me!!
  17. My brother inlaw had one and sold it to buy a Ultra Classic, said he wish he never would have.
  18. Is there a good place to go in northern ohio for implants or bridges?
  19. Looks like they took a front clip from a small sports car and notched it out like the guy did with the utility trailer!! Best looking one I think
  20. I took my battery to Auto Zone and had it tested. They said the first load it checked ok but the second time it dropped to 7? Does that mean bad battery? or maybe not charged all the way? It had been unattended for awhile.
  21. Do the replacements from ebay cover an 89 VR ?
  22. I can't figure out how to put pics on here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  23. How do you think it would do on cleaning rims on a 89 VR ????
