  1. I would almost bet pulling the TCI and drying it out will cure it. NEVER use power washer on these things. Did the same thing to my 85 first day I had it. You can pull the TCI and open it up put in oven for about a hr at 150 Clean the connections and put it back on top of the Air box instead of where it is.
  2. One of these days you will find yourself a 1st Gen. Then you can quit dreaming about it!!!
  3. We'll keep our fingers crossed and keep praying. Hair is overrated anyway...
  4. Not a hard job. S hould find a lot of advice on here about it. And some of it right...
  5. Why can't we just keep it simple like " Hey Red You still riding that "Pansy" 2nd Gen???"
  6. Fighting those Ghosts will take forever. I was just getting to where I could ride and relax after the first accident when that nut crossed lanes and hit me headon. Had nothing to do with the bike but it got me more than the bike wreck did and brought all the spooks back trippled. I love riding too much to quit. I have taken rides that I had to pull over and collect my nerves before I could go on. It will take time. Don't push it. It will come. At times now I feel as I used to. And it is GREAT!!

    Air??

    I have always run my air at 12 lbs for the front and 45 lbs for the rear. I noticed since I got "Ugly" that I was having a lot harder time with low speed handling. Today I was playing with the air settings and rode a while with 9 lb in the front and 35 in the back. Memories of the "Blue Beast" coming back. Handles GREAT. It just never entered my head(too full of knowledge) that the bike would handle the air that much different. It just doesn't take as much air for "Ugly" to sit up as much as the "Blue Beast" did. Too much air was putting me out of my comfront zone along with the leg and I was blaming everything on the leg. Point I'm trying to make is "Play with it once in a while" NO! NO! The air settings!! Adjust them a little different and see how it feels. See how it feels......... Hey Muffin I think I'll be ready for that ride!! Hurry up and get home!!
  25. Red Roof Inn will travel!! "Ugly" is sounding SWEET!! Are we ready yet???
