    In my opinion lugging it is worse than reving it. Also I have never really babied anything I owned expecially cars. Personally I think they run better if they are not babied. Worst thing for a piece of equipment is too let it sit, so enjoy it and ride. I have read some articles on piston rings (high performance), they say they should run hard right away so that they heat treat and harden in position they appy more pressure to the walls and seal better. (I am not an expert so I do not know if this is true.). Brad

    Some of these vintages had a problem with an air lock in the tank. ike stalls and won't start. When you open the gas cap you hear air rushing in. Just another idea. Seafoam and a little care it will be good as new. Don't get to frustrated. Brad

    I believe some have said it was possible but I kinda doubt it. I have had the engine out of my 86 (twice) and I honestly do not believe it can make it, over the studs (see first picture) The cylinder head nuts are hidden under the Connecting rod caps (below the Cam). It will not be an easy job to re install the Cam chain tensioner if it is still in the bike. This needs to be removed and then reinstalled after the cams get back in. If your going that far it is not that bad or much more to remove the engine. Brad

    Holiday Inn near Fairway mall ? That is close to Swifty but I still think it is there. Don't pay much attention to hotels here. Obviously on Business ? What place were you visiting ? I am hoping to see if it takes me less than 30 minutes as well. Brad

    Hey Stoutman don't worry about how long it took, Don's a salesman so his 30 minute job was probably a we bit longer ( no offense to sales people I had a bad day with our sales guy overselling things and I had to pick up the pieces, like always) Brad
