  1. also drain the tank and check for rust. this bike has been sitting more then riding over the years. replace all fluids, clutch, brake, cooling, rear end grease and lube. if original tires, I would change them.
  2. sea foam treatment, sync carb, check air filters and fuel filter.
  3. You must be into PAIN! You know your going to get a right turn next time you guys get together.
  4. I did spoil her, I took her out to a gourmet dinner....at Max's drive-in.
  5. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BEST RIDING PARTNER I COULD EVER HOPE FOR. No Bigtom its not you.
  6. Go back to your corner.
  7. I have a spare hidden on the bike, just in case I have one of those senior moments....Now if I can just remember where I hid it:think:
  8. I get my keys made at Lanes Yamaha. The owners wife is amazing, she can look at a key and Knows what key code to use. Then punches in the code and out comes a new key. apparently there are only so many variations to Yamaha keys.
  9. I checked mine using both procedures, the reading where the same. It's easier to just point the lobe's straight up.
  10. Did u buy the 01 new? If not maybe po lowered the front end or rear or both. that will change the handling
  11. lean into curves like you would if riding an ATV.
  12. Other then an occasional Bee in the helmet, Robin loves the new pillow tops I installed on the 99. She seem to spend a lot of time sleeping back there....must be comfortable.
  13. In the manual I have it shows a ground lead attached to the radio casing, pg 8-54. You did say you have nothing on the display right? no power at all? If that's the case, then it's not the mute. All though I don't think it has a mute mode. Don't have my bike right now to check it out, it's in the shop. The CB is under the trunk. Worth checking the wires under the seats.
  14. Did you check the ground connection? If I recall you said the po said it just quit working will out riding. Maybe a loose or dirty ground or broken wire? Did you check all the connections for corrosion?
  15. Also the Motortrike uses 4 bolt ford hubs and rear ends.
  16. Bobby, I thought you had 5 bolt pattern?
  17. Wanna bet?!.... More cold, more snow and freezing rain next week!
  18. look for pin hole leaks in the rear Y pipes, these pipes seem to rust out faster then the front pipes. I believe they are made out of a different material.
  19. Just click on calendar on top of this page, most every event is posted there.

  22. We went there last year. Didn't intend to, just kinda ended up there while looking for a hotel. We took the shop tour, very impressive. Got to meet the shop manager, can't remember his name now.
  23. About a foot of snow so far.no internet no cable. this sucks
