    I came up on the waiting list today and was able to order one of the Raspberry Pi single board computers. Paid for it via Paypal. Says up to 3 week delivery time. Raspberry Pi is a single board computer the size of a cigarette pack. Runs linux. total cost for the computer was $43 inc postage. requires a usb keyboard & mouse & video (one of several options). And a way to download their version of linux to a 4gb SD memory card. Or you can buy a pre-loaded memory card for another $18. The computer was designed by some university types in the UK for use by school kids learning to program. But at the price, a lot of people who want to try linux and programming are going to buy one. http://www.raspberrypi.org/

    Life in the 21st century. If you have enough neighbors who will say they want DSL, you may be able to get the telco to upgrade their line. It won't happen overnight though. Another route is to petition the State Utilities Commissioner. Now where did I put my 300baud acoustic coupler?

    Jeff, I can give you a handful of 25mm dia shims that are over 3.0mm thick to use in your grinder when you get it set up. I got a set of shims from a Toyota 6cyl engine and about half of them are thicker thanI've ever seen in a motorcycle engine. I thought I had a list of all my shims somewhere on the computer. I can't find it right now. Randy

    I think I have an extra 2.85 but no extra 2.70. I'm headed out right now and will check later.

    The 2nd gen gasket part is 4NK-11193-00 you need two. 2nd gen means 1996 and later. however the valve cover fitment is the same for 1st gen and 2nd gen, and the newer gaskets have a heavier lip.

    mm-mm moose burgers.... Lets see. adult moose = 800 lbs. thats 400lbs of moose burger meat. Current price for lean beef hamburger at the market is $3.00+ a lb. value of moose meat = $1200. well, that doesn't quite pay for a new car.

    I suggest try to make one of the Meet & Eats in your area and get one of the experienced riders to take a look-see.

    Grass is like in-laws. They grow where you don't want them. And when you need them, they're no where to be found. Buy a goat.

    I'll just send the whole kit. shims, feeler gauges, some picks, a magnet, a shim pop tool made by Dingy.... I'll get it into tuesday's mail. do you have gaskets? btw 2nd gen gaskets work (better) than 1st gen gaskets.

    looking good. looks like you'd have had to take off exhaust pipe tips if it had them too.

    Paypal will work, or a check for postage when returned. I'd rather not be without the kit for an extended period of time, but could get it to you in 2-3 days via Priority Mail. Lets say, barring unforeseen problems, would like to have the kit back to me in 2 weeks. I haven't used it in over a month. But sometimes there's a backlog of people wanting it. If its not too much trouble, I have a member manufactured shim tool that we'd like tested and will send it along with the shims if I haven't gotten a chance to test it otherwise first. Randy

    Bill, I have a shim set I'd be glad to send you. I would ask that any shims in short supply be replaced when you're done with it and you pay postage. RandyR

    don't even use 4th in town. 4th is for over 50-55mph. 5th gear is for over 65mph (and no head wind, use 4th in a headwind). as mentioned, check to make sure you're firing on all 4cyclinders. Let the engine cool. start it up. carefully feel for heat near the exhaust headers.

    whats the part number of what you ordered & have vs what you should have?

    sounds like a good destination for a M&E sometime in the future. The problem with fresh donuts is they seldom make it home...

    a prayer sent. May he quickly be on the mend.
