The switch has a broken piece of plastic in it or I would be happy to . I will get the lens from MG Cycle tomorrow . Maybe the switch too ?

To all members that are packrats : I need some things to get my 2000 Greenie back in shape . I need the r.h. switchgear . The starting switch decided to hang . I also need the l.h. front turn signal lens and if I can't straighten the l.h. bar I will be looking for one of those too. I have one somewhere and CANNOT find it. Let me know , it is down for a little while .

brother , I am rootin' for Geno too ! Now to survey the damage and fix/order parts.

What year / model is this ?

You have two black frame and one red frame ?

And the 1st thing you do is jump up to see how many were watching ?

Agostini is a good place to shop and get stuff . Do not plan on returning ANYTHING . The VAT will kill you

If you are stripping the bike , how about a l.h. bar ? Mine is kinda bent now .

Were you a rational teenager ? Neither was I . ALL teenagers need to do two years in the military PERIOD . R Lee Ermy would be a great motivational speaker . The big difference between R Lee and my dad ? My dad meant what he said .

I think we should get everyone to start using pedal cars & tricycles . No bicycles . Why ? Because they are the most efficient mode of transportation and I don't own any bicycle manufacturing companies .

And what year is this bike ? It becomes important at installation time !

Those Ohlin's on a bike look as good as it gets !

If it matters , Aerostitch on Bibendum might have helped IDK . I do know I need to practice my squats . 2020 was when I had my knees replaced and I just haven't ridden until about 6 weeks ago. My knees will not allow me to put the balls of my feet on the pegs , SO I will have to practice , practice , practice .

ATGATT !

Well , yesterday morning I pulled into the Waffle Hut to stop for breakfast , came to a complete stop and couldn't get my foot off the peg fast enough....timber . Remember Arte Johnson / tricycle incident from Rowan & Martin's Laugh In . That was me. Bike did pretty good , L.H bar end , turn signal lens , spark plug cap are the only apparent damage. I didn't = dislocated / separated / torn shoulder or something and this HURTS. The good thing - I have kept all my string of get-offs at < 1 mph intact.

These fork seals on USD forks have the least amount of "tension" I have ever found on anything labeled as a seal so these need TLC. The most attention , the most care , the best fork oil , the BEST seals PERIOD . I remember reading an article on USD fork maintenance where Yamaha was recommending removing the seal spring ang cutting X number of turns out of the spring to get a better seal and reduce seal weeping. Be careful when you are working on these forks , one bad move w/a screwdriver , hammer or anything can leave you with a pile of scrap.

IDK what the humidity is there. Around here it is almost 100% from June-October. When it gets hot here you sweat through your clothes just standing around.

This a part of the cush-drive . correct ? and this is what broke ?

With this procedure you should be able to locate the "slip".

You will find it or find something missing

No , what the Griso did to me was immediate , it was perfect from first sight .

Seeing this reminds me of some of the scenery in Easy Rider .

The first video is sad to watch for the simple reason it is true . Every second of it is true. I am going to have to watch the second video a few more times to understand what is going on here.

It may be worth considering . The fact thumper said it started this problem immediately , is to be considered too . There has to be deliberate diagnosis and making sure you have checked and rechecked everything .
