    Lane splitting, does the lane belong to the car or the bike?

    If you are in wholly in the lane and being passed by the lane splitting motorcycle (or any vehicle) and there is contact it is about 99.9% going to be the one passing that bears the responsibility.

    Crimp, solder, waterproof butt and terminal connectors

    Phillips has made some really decent connections that you can apply about any heat source to and it solders and does the shrink insulation. Then they came out with one you could crimp, solder either or and it had "shrink" on it too. I found them very useful, but to those who had to buy them...

    Test Riding It For First Time

    Tough call. If I reach that point with a rig, I walk away for awhile.

    Steve83's 1200 FI has a new home

    I am really interested in how this one goes. I think it is too bad that Honda waited so long to FI that one and bailed out so fast.

    I kind of owned a 74. When i got out of college I was going to buy myself one as a present and when august rolled around i tried to order the 74 because the 75 was coming with catalytic converters. the agency said they could still get it as of aug 18th, the day i put my deposit down. time...

    backfiring out of the carb and fluctuating powerband

    And the resolution was? :-)

    Carb running out of gas?

    When one of mine came out of mothballs I used the "thumb over the in hole" on the fuel pump while I cranked the engine. Mine sure felt like it would have lifted gas from further away than the floor. Comments about float needles and seats is probably dead on. What seems like an identical...

    Bored -just being an a%#

    One of the few series based on a movie that was as good as the movie. Anyone know the lyrics to the theme?

    Carb running out of gas?

    Somehow my mind flashes back to us trying to drive a 58 chevy station wagon home by gravity feeding off of a "rigged" tank that was first set on the hood then the roof.

    Somehow, I am guessing we don't send on the same wave length. Good luck, anyway.

    81 interstate with trailer $700..no gears?

    You guys who have had one apart know better than me, but most of the other Japanese bikes I have had needed the shift drum to move before the neutral light was operable, so unless all the pumps are out, I am betting on something in the final drive too. Nice rig with a trailer that should...

    forced to sell

    It was for you Ansimp. I wondered if the doc's biggest concern was you lifting. I still ride dirt and need to quit trying to keep up. Lifting my 82 made me think I need to ride with someone else or consider something lighter when on my own. 25K sabre 750 waiting to get freshened up may be...

    Carb running out of gas?

    If you are running it on gravity alone I would suspect that running out is just what is happening.

    Questions for Dan, Joe (and others)

    I have to find a "mule" to do some experimenting on. I have some later model cfr250 honda carbs that just seem perfect. I even have some Lectrons and a couple of boxes of mikuni's. All really simple, and I have gone from twin carbs on british 40 inchers and back again for different types of...

    Not to pry Ansip, what was your doc's biggest concern for you.

    forced to sell

    After letting mine fall onto the crash bars while moving it I began thinking that there will be a time when I will want a much lighter one :-). Maybe that isn't too far off either. Steve has a vision issue and the doc says my diabetes may give me a vision problem too. I hope we all can have...
