Didnt know anything about it but unfortunately im fully booked this weekend. where at in delaware are you? im 15 minutes from Wilmington and my...
Like many others here, I only knew Bill through forum postings. The fact that so many people are so affected by someone they never met in person...
also here in the philly area. i'll keep checking in. even if it isnt bike weather, ive always got my truck and im in for some miles.
Hoping for the best for Bill and his family.
I must respectfully disagree. that thing is ugly all day.
If I do part it I will let you know but I most likely will just keep it if it doesnt sell.
Update Bump: Had the Seca out on the road today for the first time in a long time. Had it idleing just under 1500 rpms and it was idleing...
Wow, I just realized that you left P-Burgh Friday and made it to Nebraska and then the Rockies in 2 days! You're killing it out there man. I...
be careful. especially listening to the ipod. dont zone out. enjoy the ride!
ha, i was waiting on someone especially after the saturday night recreational comments.
explains a lot about NY drivers.
hey tito, not necessarily too late but the garage is jammed up cause my brother brought home a shovelhead and I picked up a new Triumph. hes...
That side car is nuts. If you ever find yourself in the Philly area with that thing I want to go for a ride in it. I'll let you take the new...
Similar, on the 202 bypass one day doing about 70 or so and my eyeballs were vibrating in their sockets to the point I couldnt read the exit...
I think it looks good with the mids. My brother has a chopped Sportster with mids and its comfy.
I have a set, just havent put them on yet cause the Seca is still in the works of adjustments.
Re: HELP! I can't get my bike to start, could it be the carb I second the chainsaw idea.
careful with those baby syringes. I got one at CVS and the carb cleaner ate a hole right through before I could finish using it.
Thanks for the confidence boost Grynen.
Well, I bought the Scrambler. Still trying to get rid of the Seca.
Alright folks I am offering it up here first because I know you all appreciate these bikes. The bottom line is that I am going to look at an 08...
sorry to hear that man. glad youre not too badly banged up. nobody got a license plate or anything? they deserved to get hit with something.
So I just looked and it was Dec 9th 2007 when I posted about breaking the float pillar in one of my carbs and JB Welded it back together. Now, a...
just curious, why'd you have to sync and tune it twice?
just thought i should add that this is dependent on whether or not i can get the bike to run and idle enough to do a sync. ive got an ok sized...
Anybody want to try and do something Saturday the 23rd? I know its Memorial Day weekend but I dont have any plans yet and thought I'd throw it...
fitz: i changed the oil after it puked out the breather. I dont want that gas/oil mix pumping through and ruining whatever chances I have. The...
not sure about fine or coarse thread. did a bench sync awhile back while but dont have the tools for a proper sync. a buddy of mine was gonna...
hey bill, I turned them to 2 turns out yesterday and was still having the problems. I can try 2 1/2. the screaming noise from behind the...
Most recently valves have been checked and shimmed to the proper clearance. Carbs cleaned and slides clunk like a dream. Two or three weeks ago...
So i got the bike all back together and when i got it started... gas everywhere out the breather. i think i set my floats to high because i was...
that seat reminds me of the "kilos of dope" they always have in movies wrapped in foil with red tape. anwyay, have fun with the bike.
Yeah I was thinking it looks like Johnny 5 from Short Circuit. Sweet looking bike man.
I'm surrounded by a Trifecta of bad drivers. Marlyand, Jersey and Delaware. Not that Philly drivers are much better. Also, I've rode the bike...
Hey Wesley, Being in the Cherry Hill area or anywhere else in Jersey I'd want all the protection I could get. Not saying its all of you but...
I have both. When its really warm out I go with the 3/4. Full face for the rest of the time.
valves are done and all back in spec thanks to bigfitz and chacal for the guidance and parts as well as others here who chimed in with some help...
whats the matter fitz, you worried someones gonna run your plates! all kidding aside, the bike looks awesome.
i agree with the dirtbike idea and the small 250 bike idea. im 26 and have been riding for not even 2 years so im still learning a lot. i havent...
or Harbor Freight. where at in SE PA are you?
sorry to hear that man. good luck getting it back together. unfortunately, this is probably going to happen a lot in the not too distant future...
Carl, your way of doing the math made sense. thanks. and xj650ss, you just made me realize i was reading the chart wrong. i printed fitz's...
to preface this, i am TERRIBLE at math. it just does not make sense in my brain. ok, all my valves are tight. checked all the shims and...
got my shim tool just in time for the weekend. all of my valves are tight so i'll be ordering up 8 shims and some of those rubber donuts. mmmm,...
i've had carb cleaner in the eye before but never brake cleaner. i wear goggles now when cleaning the carbs. also while cleaning pistols but...
wasnt finished, oops. that bike looks awesome!
looks like theres a feline critter on the couch in the background too.
I'd be up for something as well once I get the bike back together and running properly.
