  1. First:Are you left handed, own a Mac and or do EVERYTHING different from anyone else? If you answer Y to any or all of these ?s, you will fit the bike. p.s. Do you own a Jota?
  2. Stopping can be an important virtue at the right time.
  3. Give it a go! You are not working on a bomb squad. Over the years it seems I've torn up as much as I've fixed.
  4. If I hit the lottery (which I don't play) this bike would be on it's way to Decoy,Ky. right now!
  5. REad this advice 5 times before you play with brake fluid!
  6. Have you removed the spark plugs and inspected them? with a proper set-up fuel injection system they will look almost perfect. Nothing much darker than a new spark plug. There are pictures posted on the net somewhere so you can "read" spark plugs.
  7. Amen ! You might not tell it looking at the outside. the inside will disfigure and collapse.
  8. when you change the hose look for the check valve located in the crankcase end of the hose!
  9. TIMMMBBBBEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. The only easy method is a wire wheel (bench grinder type) to remove threadlocker from the threads.
  11. I recommend K&W Coppercoat or Hylomar on gasket surfaces. I have had bad results with gaskets "moving"after applying any type of silicone on gaskets.

    I never could

    BAD TO THE BONE! Were you at Sturgis on this a few years ago?
  13. I got mine from Agostini. They fit perfect,I can remove and install them easily.The instructions say to relocate the turn signals which I didn't. The price of shipping was another thing altogether. when it was all said and done,they are worth the price.
  14. Triumph Bonneville; one of the most beautiful motorcycles EVER built.
  15. Ford sells an electrical grease pt# f8az-19g208-aa that I use when installing things like relays to keep out moisture,etc. from the connection(s).
  16. Why is Europe ALWAYS so beautiful!?
  17. What maked you decide the fuel mixture was too rich. In order to check the press.regulator you would have to plumb into the fuel line and ckeck fuel pressure at koeo and koer. Anything is possible but I doubt it is the regulator.
  18. If you see any problem at all, you can wire around the fuse (I assume this is the charging system fuse) panel and install 30a maxi-fuse in place of the standard ATO fuse.
  19. A DVOM displays volts . the Axeone or computer software on a laptop should show degrees or volts.
  20. Our prayers are with you and his family. Death and life are misunderstood events that have no good explanation. We all make (what later seem) decisions at the time of both these events. I hope everyone involved in this tragedy make good decisions.
  21. The difference is miniscule. I use Motorcraft Synthetic 75-90 gear lube.I let the old fluid drain overnight.Install drain plug (very important) and fill till it comes out middle plug.Ride it about 2 mi. and recheck level after sitting for an hour.
  22. You saw Hillary get off when an interpretor got involved. Make sure you mean what you say IF she understands Italian.
  23. Don't waste the money. No one is going to steal it because they can't sell any parts because it doesn't break! It is too exotic to ride around on because it is too noticeable. just remove the keys when you get off. Or you could get cheap and make a decal with some BadA** GPS alarm/theft deterrent system and apply it to the fuel tank! BREAK not brake!
  24. Get Greg Field's opinopn. Whatevre he says is a fair price is a fair price for both parties.
  25. What model year is the bike? 2200 mi.? Price and value is in the eye of the beholder.Buy it, you won't regret it!
