Think a valve without screen and a easy change filter woukd make more sense. -
I've always used 20/50 Castrol. N ever had a oil related problem. This New to Me 85 only has 20k on it so it has me thinking the oil thing again.Which way to go? It is still 23 yrs old. Only about 870 miles a yr. It has Yamalube in it now. Which way to go??

Petcock is first filter. Catches most of it I guess. I had a rusty tank that I put three filters on in line. It worked. Looks like they could make petcock just a valve and put filters outside. -
Gerald, And everyone else on this site. I know that you guys are funnin and Dan and I read it together all the time. I need no apoligies from anyone here. I was just saying how I felt about the pic to Yammer and was not meaning to hurt anyone's feelings. I love to read this site and teasing each other is the best part of it. Dan and I have grown to love you guys. You are a great friend. Before this site he had no friends and now he does and we owe a great thanks to this site and to everybody that is here and puts up with him. Besides if it wasn't for you guys he would be home 24/7 under my feet. I get a break from everyday life just like he does when he with you guys. I think that you misunderstood me when I singled you out and I apoligize for that. I know that you were kidding and if anyone knows me then they know that I speak my mind. And I stuck my foot in my mouth when I should have just gritted my teeth. I was not mad about the pic but concerned about his safety. I do know the expression (if you fall off get back on). He stll has blood clots and he had an x-ray 2 weeks ago and was told that the bone was not healing and it might not ever heal. If he goes down again he might not ever ride again. If their not healing the first time then they won't heal the second and riding is his whole life. Take that away and he has nothing. I was just explaining to him that if you go down again there may not be any more riding for the rest of your life. You guys do the math on this one. If it were me I know what I would do. Try to ride as safe as I could for as long as I can. If you love riding so much why shorten the ride when you can ride forever. LIVE TO RIDE

Caught me when I was out mowing grass. What do you say to that. I told her I was sorry and admitted it was not just checking the bike it was just feeling good about being there on it. She did have a point. Or two. Or three. I went through hell and don't want to do it again. I still can't turn loose and ride. Like learning all over again but harder. Not as young and stupid. But I'm on a 1st Gen that runs better every day. And getting to ride with some great people. Ghosts will disappear with time. Thanks everybody I think I'm forgiven til next time.

I beat Skid on one tank but he was two up. Got little over 45 I think. Haven't Color-Tuned it yet just set them all at two turns out. Seems to be starving for gas if I really get on it. But I don't do that!!!
-
Lot of shots taken. Most of them can be put on here!!!

This is the warden....... Nobody knows what I went through for almost 2 years with him flat on his back half the time. The first 6 months was no sleep at all and if I did fall asleep. I was awoke at the least little sound. For fear that a blood clot was going to his brain or heart. Which I will remind everyone that he still has bloods clots in his leg. It takes one small gravel to upset the balance of that tire. Some of you know what losing a loved one is like and are still experiencing the pain and will for a long time. I for one do not want to feel that pain and or repeat the hell I did two years ago due to lack of smarts or a great deal of stupidity. Now you know why he says that everyone should wear a full faced helmet. If you act like that then YES I agree a full faced is the way to go. That did not look like safe riding to. No Gerald I am not sensitive. I am his wife. If you set at the table with a gun that has 6 chambers and one bullet and every once in awhile you pull that trigger then you are bound to find that one bullet sooner or later. Just One Gravel, twig or maybe a squirell. chipmunk etc. I know that anything could happen at anytime and accidents do happen. But why go looking for an accident to happen. You are supose to be setting examples for our young future riders. And live long enough to teach them how fun and exciting it is without inviting danger to go along. If they all ride like that then they'll not live long enough to teach their own or to tell their grandkids that they rode the dragon and about all the great friends that they found on this site. I've had my say and hope that everyone understand. Please do not get the wrong opinion of me. I am not overly protected or anything just want and need to know that he is safe when he leaves here. He goes where he wants when he wants as long as he wants. NUF SAID. Now PLEASE pray for me when Yammer reads this.

Hey Denden does that mean you are back on the 83?? I think about that one often. Great Bike.

OK help me out here. Mamamo none of this is your fault. But on the way back Mamamo was snapping pics and i was showing Froggy how good the scoot was handling. Thus pic of me with arms in air. Warden went nuts! claimed "The next time they pull you out of the ditch I won't be taking care of you!!" Really got upset about that pic. Again Mamamo it was not your fault. I tried to explain it to her that I was just checking the steering and it was no big deal. She wouldn't buy that one but said if I had enough of you to back me up that I just wasn't being a clown she might accept it. How many have done this to check steering? Road was new pavement and perfect. HELP PLEASE!!

I've rode both. Quit riding Hardleys because I was tired of sitting beside the road waiting for someone to come and get me. And 56 Pan chopper was stolen had a little to do with it. Grabbed my first Yamaha because i had nothing to ride and was hooked. Worry free riding!! didn't know what that was. Won't say I won't own another Hardley. If I win Powerball I have a Ultra Classic with all the bells and whistles sitting in the front lawn to impress everybody. But if you want to see what I'm really riding look around back and you'll probally find a few 1st Gens!!
-
Yep, They rule the back of the Pack!!
-
Ghosts still chasing me bad but it's a 1st gen just a matter of time til I leave them in the dust!! Now if I could just get a auto Kickstand retractor!! Never rode with boards and sidestand switch is out. It is hidden under floorboards, can't see it.Gotta get that switch fixed. only 20k and been sitting a lot probally just dirty.
