  2. tipped over on my 2000 v11 on a dirt road, biggest loss is the rear brake pedal, it snapped in half. Looking to spend less than the $130+ for a new one.
  3. That's what I tried, but it says "The member gstallons cannot receive any new messages"
  4. Actually, emailed the hotmail account listed on your profile, forums system says I can't PM you for some reason. maybe inbox full?
  5. that's great, PM sent. Anyone have good luck / bad luck mail ordering random old parts?
  6. I noticed about 6 weeks ago that the big nut that locks the pivot bolt in place on the right side was missing. apparently I didn't torque it down well enough when I rebuilt the back end this spring. So I went online and ordered one from Harper's Moto, and I guess it's been backordered this whole time. First request for updates said "it's on order" and the second request was ignored. Anyone know what size the bolt is so I can maybe put something on temporarily? Or have a spare I can buy, or know a better place to get one? Getting real tired of not riding. 2001 v11 sport
  7. If the clutch on my 2001 v11 sport is wearing out, as in it slips badly, especially when starting on Hills or going up my driveway, what parts need to be replaced? I see the clutch kits on mgcycles but that looks like a full replacement, flywheel etc. I'd rather order some bits before crabbing the frame, but does it make more sense to take it apart first, then see what needs to be replaced?
  8. oh, they didn't match the numbers on the mgcycles website. Are they really different left and right side?
  9. I got mine out to replace, at least that was a lot easier than the stupid swingarm bearings. Are they the same on the left and right side? or should they be? 2000 v11 sport (green) Mine are labeled: SKF 6204-2RSH on the drive side SKF 6204-2RS1 on the brake disk side Anyone have the part number for my year/model?
  10. The harness is an extra circuit for a relay to some oversize horns. They aren't resting on the throttle link. Just a bad angle in the picture.
  11. Is there supposed to be something attached to that vacuum port? I think it's been bent since I owned the bike, but I don't remember anything ever being attached there.
  12. Dang if you weren't right. I must not have tightened that one when I put the tank back on, or didn't tighten it enough. No more leaks, for now.
  13. The rubber seals on these came off easily enough. Would you do anything to clean out the old supposed cheap grease or just fill liberally with good stuff? It only took the machine shop I brought the swing arm to 2 weeks to get the old bearings out. Hopefully the new ones go in easily for them.
  14. I've been having intermittant problems with fuel leaks. Only with the engine running, but also when I first turn the key on and the fuel pump circulates some gas through the system. Last time I thought i found it, thought it was a loose hose at the fuel filter. This time while working on a bunch of other stuff, I cranked up the engine and found gas dripping out from around this part. Never seen that before. Two questions: 1: what is this piece? What's it for? I couldn't find the name in my shop manual. 2: why would gas be leaking from it? can i disassemble it and replace something, or do I need to replace the whole thing?
