  1. I wonder if there is a corresponding increase in akvavit sales as well?
  2. I'd say gavo and raz are on the right track. The ring compresses slightly when reinstalling the pin then expands into a groove to lock the pin in place. Might even be able to see the groove in the caliper if you have a look..............

    New hobby

    This picture caught my eye. I've always been attracted to the smaller displacement bikes but have never done anything with them because I'm a BIG bike sized guy. Doesn't seem to matter to this rider! (Have fun Jaap, looks like it will be a blast)!
  4. I just replaced the original Sparky on my '01 this spring. It was never on a charger (though I did try this spring) and always fired the bike after the winter's rest. We'll see what the Odyssey does now.
  5. How much downhill road do you have?
  6. My 01 does it for sure.
  7. Hi Matt. There could be many sources of trouble but it could be as simple as old gas and dirty spark plugs. Start with the simple stuff first. Drain or syphon off as much of the old fuel as you can, top off with fresh stuff and maybe some Techtron fuel additive and new spark plugs. (Get a couple sets of spark plugs). A search in the Technical Topics forum will turn up a couple sources for replacement relays. Good luck!

  12. Looks like Mr G. Joe spends alot of time checking out this site.
  13. I think the suction cup idea is great. Hope someone tries the Genesis bag on a V11 and reports back. Might even be worth contacting the company and seeing if they have any comments regarding fit on the early V11s.
  14. Sometimes, I suppose, 'ya just gotta get it out of your system!
  15. Not the first time I've missed the boat. I'd never seen it before! I'd like to hear it in person, must be a real hoot. Zoom-zoom!
  16. Pssssssttt..........BFG................. You were supposed to WAIT a couple days to answer. This is gonna look......... Huh? Oh, er, yep, wow you got that one quick! +1 for belfastguzzi Ben, if you please. So, which one next BFG, my turn again..............
  17. The usual..........
  18. Entertainment at the HD Rally no doubt.
  19. Funny, but I always thought Pete's avitar was a cartoon caricature of some sort. Thought it was a cross between this guy and a common cow. I checked out a couple of Yak-sites and found the very picture. Totally legit. (Actually, a slightly different picture of the same (?) animal).
  20. 14 years, 7 months, 3 days, 17 hours and, and, and........... What time is it??????????
