Well, yes and no...yes it is a good temperature for beer, but no, it had nothing to do with my post!

I got tired of writing out the 'degree', and my son told me that my computer has something called a character map...so I went lookin'. I found it down in the systems, never bin there before. OK, now I have to find out how to use it! Hence, my post. To find out if I really know how to use it, I had to put it on paper. There is the proof three posts up, and with the use of the 'edit' button I corrected my post several posts up beyond that...

So as not to turn this into another useless post here are some pics for you pic. whores out there! All fittings are now aluminum, no corrosive reaction between dissimilar metal. Also, pic of the new timing pointer, waiting on balancer, last of the safety upgrades

Last pic is of the 150° -AN6 female push on barb fitting to 3/8" hose

At the risk of being called a showoff, here they are

Got pics?,I think I know the area you're referring to. Should I go to your build? Are your doors matching up nice. That's my indicater...maybe take out the rubber mounts temporarily to get it welded up

Re: PO has me PO'd

a blast, except that mikey took a header on his second ride the next morning. Funny how a yellow slide can stop a suzuki and send a three year old flying over the handle bars!

They had it out again today, I got a killer deal, probably half price or better. Here are some pics...

I was sitting here wondering where it all starts, and you provided the answer...our fathers introduce the speed, thrill and danger at 3 years of age and we continue the addition to our grave. Rode a 500cc AWD one at my sons bachelor party, scary, sic

Re: PO has me PO'd

Thanks guys for the belated, better late then never!




OMG! I think I opened a can of worms on this one...harness modified for electric fan and electric water pump. Two more relays to mount and the dual battery box and solenoid

VT, can I take you up on the offer of the external mounted voltage regulator?



OK, tynee...being shipped in from Arizona...if the MO ever clears
