  1. If you own a red frame bike , you need one of these brackets PERIOD . I would puke if my trans. case cracked . This is the cure . IMO , there was not a proper radius made or cut into this case to prevent cracking. this stuff is a science all by itself.
  2. I read it . Great book ! Also , Zen & the art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig . Loved it .
  3. I will look when I get home n see.
  4. www.connectorexperts.com I think is the place ?
  5. I will look . I think there is a website for all automotive connectors (not cheap) and I don't know if the seal is available separately. I will see if I can find anything or anyone can search engine to find them.
  6. Mmmm. which connectors are you talking about ?
  7. And , thanks for the o-rings for the throttle air bypass screws ! I sent you a PM about the fish oil and about the balance too .
  8. I use something on all electrical connections . The Deutch connectors on stuff at work are a bear , I use Motorcraft electrical grease or Lubriplate 105 white grease on everything .
  9. That time we spent together moved at the speed of light. It was over way too quickly . I enjoyed every second of it !
  10. OMG , I was lookin' at this half asleep earlier (last night or this morning) and thought it was a spark plug wire end !
  11. Kenny was to then as to what Rossi is to now . "who is gonna come in second" and do not forget Agostini !
  12. After looking at the gaskets (in the picture again) I would use the spray the CopperCoat or Hylomar .
  13. ANY time you have a discharged battery go through freezing temps you are promised troubles. Keep the battery on a tender throughout the winter / when you are not riding . I am going to say this is what happened to these batteries. Also , get the bike running and check the charging system output V and then check the battery V after riding .
  14. I am pretty sure the Aprillia will work . I bought one a long X ago The part # is faded and illegible , so I can't make out the part # . Contact the Co. and see if it will work.
  15. Mmmmm , I'd have to hold onto one before making a concrete statement .
  16. Make sure you get the fasteners to bolt this on. And yes , these racks don't hold much . So do not expaect to tie a couple of small block chevy cylinder heads on it to take to the machine shop.
  17. Just looking at it , I would recommend a good dose of spray-on CopperCoat on both sides. Allow to dry and install.
  18. DO chase the threads on the bolt holes to be SURE they were not/are not damaged.
  19. You make 'em and I will buy two of them.
  20. Didn't Fred Flintstone have a simliar watch? Not as snazzy but the same style.
  21. Here is a good trick. When trying to revive a dead battery , connect a good battery in parallel w/the dead battery as you were going to jump start . These two batteries need to be the same . Lead acid , AGM , etc. Now hook your charger to the good known battery and put your charger on high and let charge for about an hour , then set on low and leave for a day or two. When you are finished , load test the battery and see if your battery passes muster. Remember , all connections have to be perfect.
