[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 185393, member: 4617"] Thanks for the support. I do not intend to get into it the same as I did with the one I have out here, at least not at the start. Front fork oil change has been recommended. Think I'll also change the starter solenoid for a newer blade fuse style and change the in-line 30 amp dog bone fuse to the blade type as well. The bike has approximately 101K Kms on it - just getting broken in. It was recommended to have a good look at the right rear wheel bearing - very aware of this issue. Still pondering the change to a 1500 rear, but these are not that plentiful here north of the border and on the island. Could also do the '86 SEi fix as well. My brother does not want to get into doing some work on the bike, but maybe I can coerce him into it. Would be nice to make sure the engine does turn. With some good long distance direction, I think I can get him todo a few things. Once he gets me the pictures I want, should be able to get a few more things done, or planned. These little things can make the difference between the ride from hell, or an enjoyable cross country trip. Cheers [/QUOTE]
