  1. I've used Keyboard Carriage three times and they are fantastic !
  2. This is the same as knurling a piston skirt but , you are doing it inside out .
  3. What is the color of the wheel ?
  4. Please correct me . You did swap sides with the injectors ? Did this condition stay on the same cylinder ?
  5. You have it disassembled , when you get it together , start it up and use a mechanic's stethoscope and see if both injectors "click" the same ?
  6. If you have an IR camera or temp gun , run your bike down the road & back . Check temps at the exhaust pipes and see how close the temps are . I have temp guns and an IR camera .The camera is GREAT !
  7. If it will start , I would say the crank angle sensor is ok . I am going to say to test TPS sensor . If you don't know how , just acknowledge it & we will help you .
  8. Who handles Microblue bearings ?
  9. now that is thorough
  10. You need to be sure of what your problem is before riding this bike .
  11. To me that is 0.027" to 0.035 "....this to me seems pretty big air gap . Is this wide ? I would think 0.010' to 0.015" would be better ?
  12. # 1 remove anything that will give you a false clearance reading. # 2 make sure one tooth is in the exact center of the sensor bore . # 3 drop the new sensor into the bore and allow it to rest on top of the gear tooth . # 4 measure the clearance between sensor flange and mounting surface . # 4 add this # to the needed clearance and select the needed shim . Be liberal in adding the numbers . # 5 this should have you ready to go !
  13. 2 in my county . Mine and one red frame I can't get a title to .
  14. Define earlier / later please !
  15. It could be the shifter stuck on the pivot bolt . My bike stayed down for a month waiting on a spring on this account .
  16. I think I need to lose 40 lbs. more than I need to be installing new bolts.
  17. Can you post a pic of it ?

    Ducati in yellow . Welll I suppose !
  19. Ah , we're from the same time zone ! I don't think they would have used a round retainer .. a lot of Japanese bikes used to use a round retaining ring w/a 90 on the end so you could get them off . the best method is a snap ring w/eyes on each end . Anyone that has worked on one of these can chime in and clarify . BTW There is no way that ring can out of the cylinder .
  20. Did you paint it in place or pull it ?
  21. I will never forget the first time I heard a gear drive set-up in a engine …. Yeow . I thought George Thorogood was inside of that V-8 !
  22. Yes , I bought some things from them in the past . They were great . A motorcycle shop is a hobby you support and can't make a living from .
  23. Wellll ,,,,, traditionally / historically , a gudgeon pin is the pin that holds the piston to the connecting rod . AKA , wrist pin . These were press fit , circlip and button retainer that held the pin in the piston . I'm not sure about this ?
  24. did the carb cleaner get everything off ?
  25. This screen is meant to keep large particles from entering the pump/hydraulic system . These particles , once they get into the system will damage the pump and attack the relief valve and any rotating parts that rely on pressurized oil for lubrication and clearance . If this pick-up is covered and smothers the supply , then you get no oil to the system and everything is destroyed . There are schools of thought that want no screens or similar coverings over the pick-up tube , Me , I like something over it .
