KINDOY2

I saw him the first time in 1964 when I was 12, My mother worked in a Big Hotel in the midwest and told me he was there and playing across the street in a Big Dance Ballroom which my Mothers friend owned. I found out thru my mom what room he was in and I camped outside the door for a couple hours in the afternoon until he came out and then I quietly rushed to ride down the elevator with him..he was nice..and said "Hello youngster"..He had his guitar case in one hand and a little Fender amp he was carrying in the other and was walking across the street to play..I tagged along my Mothers friend Daryl who owned the place, let me go backstage with him..and I just sat there in Awe until he went on..then I watched the whole show from back stage..the old amp he used was constantly shorting out and he would walk over give it a kick from time to time so it would play ..but he still sounded awesome to me...I had never heard music like that or seen a guy like that perform. I saw him once more there in the early 60's... The thing is he was REALLY careful with his money,( cheap) the venue's would have to supply his backup band ..sometimes they were simply Awful local kids and had never even heard his music...He would not play a note unless the promoter paid him in full in cash in advance.

O.K...I checked, I have 2 one with a little tear in it..but otherwise good condition..you can have that if you want it. Probably cost me $20-$25 bucks to ship it since they are kind of bulky...send me a P.M if you want it and I'll get your mailing address info. cheers!

IT AIN'T MINE! SO NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR IT, BUT I SAW THIS ON E-BAY TODAY..I RECALL SOME WERE LOOKING FOR ONE?..SEEMS LIKE HEN'S TEETH THESE DAY'S. ITS IN ITALY..BUT THEY SAY FREE SHIPPING https://www.ebay.com/itm/175311638948?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11021.m43.l3160&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=aec8ed1814004b3393ae7814c8045a05&bu=43150078530&ut=RU&osub=-1~1&crd=20220609041548&segname=11021

Like anything..it is worth what as much as a buyer is willing to pay and what a seller is willing to sell it for...I never pay much attention to what "typical prices" are..If I want it I want it...If I have the money I buy it.

I saw the bike there in person a couple weeks ago while visiting a friend of 35 years who works there and has for as long as we have been friends. Its a consignment bike . Of course I didn't ride it but it looked nice...If they have it on their used bike floor you can feel pretty confident its good..they are particular and don't put junk in their showroom, and any bike they sell is never "cheap " and they aren't usually in any hurry to sell, new bikes are their thing.

2003-2005 Aprilia Tuono's use them as well....

The one that just failed me was Motion Pro..it lasted about 3 years of infrequent use. The one I had before that was Blue Point Digital..I think it held together 1.5 years.... Not like I abuse them..I don,t throw them around..I want them to last..but this last Motion pro has just decided last week to read 9-12 lbs high every time..:-(, The needle wont go back to zero anymore

Sadly, I havn't had much luck with any of the Blue-point stuff I have purchased over the past 10 years, I used to think it was very good.

Is there a consensus of opinion on what is the best quality tire pressure gauge. I have tried so many different ones over the years, and have always tried to buy the best quality..but so far I have never been able to find one that will last more than a couple years before it becomes inaccurate and worthless....very annoying! Has someone found an accurate and dependable one they like?

The Graphics can be found in this forum..the paint is very difficult to match, cost me $500 us..but it looked perfect.

side stand switch ? they can be finicky and cause weird problems.

This same scam is going on over on the AF1 Forum... I was looking for a part and put up a WTB..a new member to the forum contacted me thru PM he knew a guy who had it for sale and referred me to his e mail ...I e mailed the person he recommended and that supposed seller sent me a pictures of the parts supposedly on HIS bike. The thing he didn't realise it was one of MY old Aprilia's ( Ha Ha Ha) which I sold to a friend in Phoenix 5 years ago and still talk to all the time, so I called him and asked if he had sold the bike?..He said heck no...the guy had pulled the pictures off the internet!!..to use in his Scam..I didnt reply I just I reported them Both to the Moderator....

I had a similar situation after putting the Ram Clutch in the Scrua..The friction plate is slightly thicker..One of the things I did was to zip tie the clutch lever pulled to the bars and leave it while not riding it for the first several rides..I've done this with other bikes and it does help a little bit if their is any air bubbles in the line in clutch or brakes...over night they can slowly rise to the top. Another thing is , How many miles do you have on the new clutch? after I rode mine I noticed mine would just get slightly better and not drag as much and it began to find neutral a little easier.., I even intentionally slipped the clutch a little more than usual on occasion, It was suggested by an older and highly regarded mechanic friend of mine that it would get better after a couple of hundred miles..and it did...its about 80% better to the point it doesn't bother me at all anymore...... My 2 Cents

Thanks guys...It was a labor of love...( and $$$$)

Scura Love

Probably not ideal for the rear brake master either..imo

They were out of my normal budget as well , but now, over the past 2 years since I seem to prefer wear them the majority of the time when I ride I don't feel to bad about it ..I hate when I fork out the money and then they just sit in the closet.
