Did I make a BAD mistake?
Yammer Dan replied to big mike's topic in Royal Star Venture Tech Talk ('99 - '13)
Should be no problem at all unless its a 2nd Gen!! Can't see it would hurt anything. -
Those old 650 & 750 Yammies coming off the line at about a grand to grand and half above redline..... Dump it and hang on!!! Good hot tire biting just right and you were gone!!! That V-Max would have been something. I probally wouldn't have survived. But what a RIDE!!! I haven't found the nerve I had before I went down the last time but I get spells where I just am riding without seeming to worry about every thing. Old Age? I don't know. I just want one more trip thru the "Dragon" on the "Blue Beast" The ride FrogMan, Mamamo and I took a few years ago!!! Dodge Hemi's don't want no part of a 1st Gen!! Wish I could find that Poem again. We have a Artist among us.

It did run pretty good til it sat down on the back tire.Lot of garage time in that one. Its not done yet. Might get to turn it Blue...

Yeah my jardines ain't going nowhere. Until I build that 1st Gen when I retire!!

I charged it a while and "Ugly" kicked right over. SWEET MUSIC. Now to get busy patching that plastic. I knew I couldn't ride a complete bike for long without something being busted on it!!

Sounds like a day to be lucky just to survive. Be careful.

Here is the kicker!! "Ugly and the "Parts Bike" went "Ugly" came up dead with radio catching most of the acid. Put "Parts Bike" back on its feet and it fired right up. Lil'Red had dead batt. already but didn't suffer much. "Ugly" was on top and suffered the most. Going to try recharging. Probally waste of time but it didn't loose a lot of acid went down on left side vent is on right. I got a unicycle:confused24: Last time I tried it it only cost me two days work:whistling: 70+ and the only bike that runs has frame problems!!

When my bikes went over it killed the battery on "UGLY" What are the chances of recharging it after it was on its side for a few days???

RIDE IT!! I have Jardines on mine. Ain't taking them off for Nobody! And there are those around that remember what the "Blue Beast" sounded like!!

Patience GrassHopper. I'm afraid the Faded Blue is only a memory. But what memories. 115 mph in 3rd gear. Busting Dodge Hemies. Scaping both sides on the "Dragon" Hardley Educator I learnt a lot from that old horse. I don't think I will ever get the Nerve back to ride like that again. But then all I have to do is stay ahead of the 2nd Gens!!
-
Thanks Grasshopper but I'd like to get there in time to sit my tent up.

Got it back on stand finally. Not bad enough to head for the Dark side. Busted windshield, turn signal lens,faring is busted pretty badaround mirrow and around radio. Not as bad as I first thought. Those floorboards helped a lot. And the crash bars. I had some of my good black plastic on the "Parts Bike" and it didn't come out too well. I guess its back to woprk on it when I get the time. Car, roof and trees come first. Been a real mess here last couple weeks. everything at once. I'm learning to tell them NO at work. Its time someone else did it.
-
Not sure yet. Got bike back on its stand finally and it id dead. Haven't had chance to check it out.
-
