    I could make a fortune selling NEW mounting clamps...just takes a trip to the hardware store :lol: .

    WOW...look at the whole listing for ALL of the parts! Thing's been through a dust storm, someone smashed both mirrors (they don't match) and he wants WAY too much for any of it! Maybe the carbs a just a little "high"

    In an attempt to make a $200 engine worth $5000...he turned a boat anchor into a 100 paperweights :roll:

    Gentlemen, there are plenty of easily available, ridiculously priced parts to go around. Biggs called the pipe, oh I mean "Fairing Mount" clamps first.

    Paiva, you can buy the used steering head ball bearings:

    Funny you say that. I'm waiting for my new bearings to come in from Len. Parts shipped today. I have a pile of my own I should sell. God help us.

    I would have offered it to everyone here...

    But I really didn't want to compete with Chacal on selling quality parts.

    I actually know that guy, he is on my Kaw triples forum and something must have slipped past him since he would never knowingly do that...he's expensive but not stupid.....but how or even should I say anything to him? He rebuilds cranks for H2's and H1's and the guy is no slouch......but he must have had a brainfart to list those.....instead of giving or throwing them away!!

    I'm about to replace my "starting to melt" old handgrips. - I will list them for the fair price of 59.95.

    Jeff, if you actually DO know him, then the best thing is to just flat-out tell him.
