    Wow! Between you two you can buy us ALL a new 2nd Gen and throw in a new Vmax as well!!

    That would be TERRIFIC Ben!!

    Thanks, Mel, and Ben, you both sent me the same stuff, and that pretty much solves what I need to know. Now if I could just find the wiring harness I need...

    First decided to finally finish assembling my Piggybacker. Early afternoon I was pleasantly surprised by a visit from Niagara135 (Steve) and his wife Cindy and had an enjoyable chat. After they left, I went back to the task at hand, only to be surprised a few minutes later by Big Tom and Tater, along with his friend Daryl (sp) and his wife whom we are embarrased to say we can't remember her name but were glad to meet the two of them. Got to swing a leg over a Valkrye and was thoroughly impressed with how low it is and how easy to balance. Me thinks I would like a touring version of one of those!! Anyways, after a nice visit by those 4 I actually got the Piggybacker in one piece, just a little bit more to do. Sure is nice to see something that looks like a trailer rather than three large pieces laying around! Weather was super, company was greatly appreciated, and I got something accomplished!!

    I have spare turn signals and tail light assembly if you need them, Terry...

    Me too! I guess that answers the question of what a 1st gen would lok like with whitewalls...

    Yuppers, that wil bring big bucks! Nice mod with the lenses swapping out to clear lense wqith amber bulbs! Black Owl, look which way the bulb mounts. Switching to an LED with the bulb mounted sideways like that might not be as bright due to the direction of the bulb. LED lights tend to be directional...

    Truck stops are one of my favorite places to look for extra lights for Goldie! I agree the LED's can be more visible. They draw so very little that you could hang a hundred of them on your scoot and hardly draw anything off the stator. You can replace the bulbs with LED bulbs, but unfortunately on that aftermarket bumper the bulbs point sideways and with LED's they are directional so they won't show as well...

    Hi Wayne! Did a mod to the coolant tank by moving it as far forward as it would go by remounting the bracket. That gave just, and I do mean just enough room for the CB to slide in where the '84 CB controller panel goes. Had to do some trimming to the top panel and the center panel. I had a broken top panel from Mlother from the '86 up that I cut and modified the CB mount bracket and molded it onto my removable top upper panel. I just ordered the splitter and coax but still have to get the din cable for the CB to audio amp box. I have the yama PTT/Channel switch for me but no PTT for Becky yet. Just have to hard wire it in. Sure would be nice to have a connector for the CB in case it has to come out. Maybe I should rename this thread "Anybody Got A Wiring Harness For A '86 Up CB?" Mel, if you want to email those PDF's it's bongobobny@yahoo.com

    That's exactly what I wanted to try a few months ago, but the guy who said he was going to send me the bases never came thru. You will find most mirrors are the 11mm thread. I wanted to try it out to test for vibration but alas you have done what I didn't have the chance to do. Let us know how the rubber under the base works out...
  14. bongobobny
    Doh!!! Stupid me! Just download the Mark II service manual, dummy! Just may find enough info in there to make it work. Now all I have to wait for is my splitter and hunk of coax... Scott, don't forget the gizmo I need for the trrailer lights. Mel, good to hear from you again! How's things been?

    I'm looking forward to meeting Phil too, Tom! Hopefully I will be riding by next month. There is a member of the "other" site from the Rochecter area I want to hook up with sometme soon as well. Maybe we can schedule a meet and eat at that reataurant in Leroy that you like...

    I have jack, tools etc but no tire and like Don, I'm a couple of hours away as well.I'll watch this thread and if you are still stranded tomorrow we'll see what we can do but being Sunday that's gonna be tough. You may be stuck until Monday...

    I am installing a CB on my scoot and need a wiring diagram of what wire is what on the CB unit ('86 and up) as well as the PTT/Channel switch assembly. I do not have the wiring assembly that goes with the CB installation so I need a schematic so I can hardwire the system. I know of at least one other member that may need the same information. Help!!!

    Haven't had the pleasure of one of those roadsblocks yet, but I applaud the lawsuit!
  19. bongobobny
    Fer sure!!!

    Depending on what way you come up thru NY on your way to the falls, you may come real close to our place, Beer. Feel free to stop on in if you are near rt 16 and 39. We are one short mile from the corner...
  21. bongobobny
    That'll work too, but bungees are cheaper...
  22. bongobobny
    ^^^ I agree!! Also, if you decide to fix, I do have some parts...
  23. bongobobny
    Bungee cords work...

    Also, don't be afraid of activex as it is just some fancy software to run some graphics. You shouldn't need it for the manual...

    Gee, and I miss that feature...
