  1. Sounds like something has to be out with the valves. Don't it always work like that?
  2. I was going to mention that 1st Gens already have these but I'll be quiet!!
  3. Yeah if I don't run the brush over it a couple times that white shows thru...
  4. I do like that big V-4 and would like to see them do some things to it but guess it ain't gonna happen. Fuel Injection Another gear CD Player Better brakes Back to 1200 power would be done with extra gear and changing ratio of lower ones and fuel Injection. The stuff dreams are made of.
  5. Good one George. Should be a winter time list for these (more mature) bikes!
  6. Annie the ride was in Victoria. Haven't go to read it yet. But it claims Melbourne was settled by Batman!! Bats do hang upside down!! Summer months from November to Feburary is one thing I'm jealous of though. Could we have a Meet & Eat at you place for those months?? I do hope you are feeling better.
  7. Place near here has my favorite food. A BIG greasy burger with everything on it that I can't hardley get rid of. With fries it is too much. And that don't happen often.
  8. I got a (6) spring set and outer plate from the dealer here. When I tried to install the spring I could not compress them enough to get the screws started. Added the washers to mine and it will pick front wheel up. How to install those heavy springs?
  9. Over 19 for a venture?? Getting up there. Retirement check don't look that good.Another reason to get into my 1st gen parts.
  10. Isn't Squid up there somewhere?? Could explain a lot!!
  11. Was quiet here for a while. Couldn't figure it out???
  12. Pull connections to TCI and ckeck them first.
  13. Any lasting injuries Lew?? I know all about the Hydro's
  14. Mowing the grass?? Don't really have to be bike does it??
  15. Our plastic is ABS and the glue works good in some cases. "Devcron Plastic Welder" works good also. Can be found at Wally World.
  16. Hello David! I just made my full 1 year membership to make it possible posting a answer on your questions. I bought some weeks ago a good optical condition XVZ12TD (made app.1986, sold 1998) with 47.000km, offered with non working TCI. And after i inspected it to recognize that it also need a full service i bought it for small money. I proposed to let the TCI repair in a shop that offers TCI repair for app.300$US. But after a little search i found this forum including the infos of the Tchech Republic made Ignitech TCI`s. I ordered one immediately, made the service, and one arrived after a little more than two weeks. Unfortunately due a mistake this was a Ducati TCI, and after i contacted Ignitech, Jan shipped a correct TCI again. Took another less more than a week to arrive, but this TCI was as promised. Just plugged it, and the bike runs for 500Km since. I don`t know how the bike should run with the OEM TCI, but i am satisfied. I dont know what ich should change or tune in the ready programmed and plugged TCI because i would not change this running system. In the next weeks, after i am sure that everything works properly i will take a ride to germany where i could test the maximum speed. Finally, if you just need a TCI to ride your bike to daily work, and don´t trust the new OEM TCI (maybe also produced 25years ago), this aftermarked solution would be the best you can get for your money. So go for it, and forgive if i stumble in your language. Best regards Holger GREAT JOB!! Glad to have you. This is getting very interesting if I could just understand it. You guys are going WAY OVER my head but end result is there a aftermarket TCI for the 1st Gens?? I'll keep watching if you don't mind. I have a 1st Gen or 2 or 3 or 4 aw who's counting...
  17. I've been looking in my stuff and haven't found a extra one yet but I'm still looking.
  18. Congrats Great pics. Good looking daughter. How did that happen?? You got that empty nest thing going now?? It is GREAT!! Grandkids be there soon.Start all over again!! I know all about beautiful daughters. I have some myself and I still ain't figured out how?? Warden reading over my shoulder. Says they sure didn't take after their Daddy???
  19. That should have all you need. Didn't want you to get tired while you were waiting!!
  20. 1. Usually with a drill. 2. Depends on how loud you want it. :rotfl: Couldn't resist. I'm sure someone will have that info. I really don't know.
  21. Bleed it or just wait for lines if you are getting them soon. David is just wanting to see competition to disappear!!
  22. I'm stuck in the middle. Not in the North or the South. Don't know which way to go. Think I'll just stay in the hills!!
  23. We would get kind of lonely Bum!!!
  24. Enjoy!! Have a safe trip back!!
  25. If you unhook the line to run the Sea Foam in mix it with a little gas. They don't like refiring on pure Sea Foam. You will get some smoke from the Sea Foam but nothingto worry about. Either run in in almost full strength by unhooking the line and sucking it into the carbs or run tank below 1/4 and add whole can to it run it for a while and leave sit overnight and run as low as you can before refilling. I'll bet the difference will suprise you.
