Chuck

Thanks for the tale.. a memorable trip for sure.

No need to pay me for fat fingering the order, but if you *want* another I'll put a 3 beside your name instead of 2.

Ok, Tim.. you are on the list, and I have your address.

Received the chrome moly today, and thought, "man.. that's heavier than I would expect." Sure enough, I fat fingered the order and got 2 pieces instead of one. That should be a lifetime supply of shifter extender stock.. At any rate, this run is officially on. I'll take material and a .dxf file to the water jet shop tomorrow.

Expensive and worth it from a Honda dealer on ebay..I won't be without it after using it.

I've gotta think something is unhooked.

@Cold Desert Rat hasn't replied yet.

All I have are names and addresses.. [chuck/docc edits: names converted to usernames]: BramF Speedfrog (2) Kane Skip FuelCooler Aldo Tomchri (2) Arveno that is 10 and enough to get the ball rolling. I'm in the middle of getting an order for materials and parts for the airplane project, and will order the steel at the same time.

I said I wasn't going to say anything else.. but .. This.

I have six addresses so far.

Skip is number 5. All you others that said you want one and haven't sent me your address.. you snooze you lose.

Much preferable to being viewed..

The oil and coal conglomerates have been doing a very effective disinformation campaign since the 70s. That is all I'm going to say.

Well, my worst ever experience was a Ducati that I was afraid to ride farther than I was willing to walk.

Yeah, I hit a milestone today.. put $21 in fuel in the AeroLario. (!) I remember when it seems not too long ago, I was griping about putting $2 in my Duck at Bike week.. Still 190 miles, 3.5 gallons is a fair amount of riding. I've spent more for less fun. Oh, I feel like Kreskin, too.. ordering a Tesla last summer.

I'd say the powder I have is more satin than flat. That said, "This ain't the Burger King. You don't get it your way, you get it my way or you don't get the SOB." (old tool room saying.) If you don't like it, the powder coat will make a fine primer coat for whatever version of black you want.

Ok.. flat black powder coat it is. I'll get the material ordered. Here's the deal. Send me a PM here, or email 59periodChuckatgmailperiodcom with your mailing address and how many you want. When they are done, I'll send them out. Cost is still US $50 each plus actual shipping, no fondling charge. I'll let you know how much shipping was after they are posted. Be patient.. I'm in the final push on the little airplane I'm building, and will have to make time to do this run.

^^^^^Paging Mr. Scudder.. Mr. Scudder to the courtesy phone please.

Back in the day, a SoCal Beemer mechanic I knew decided to put on some aftermarket lights. I'm not sure if he ever got it going again..

No. If you want can bus you have to get a Break My Wallet.

That's three..

Front tire change is easy. Just back it into the chock, tie it down, and lift under the motor..

Nope. I'd do another run if you get 9 more people that want one, though..

From my Scura log..courtesy of Kiwi Roy.. neutral light won't go out -look for- sticky neutral switch Won't run in gear -look for- stuck or dirty sidestand switch Won't run in neutral -look for- stuck neutral switch OR neutral (middle)relay neutral light yes but won't run in neutral -look at- middle relay Starter won't turn -look at- clutch switch or starter relay and.. As Docc says I would suspect the ignition switch, when's the last time you cleaned the contacts? If you wire a small lamp to the petcock fuse F8 you may see it go dim or flicker confirming that there is a bad contact somewhere between the ignition switch, kill switch or side stand relay.

Yeah, you've gotta love this forum. It is *the* knowledge base for the V11S. Thanks, Jaap, and Docc..
