Just got back from the Dr. he says I’m pretty lucky I guess as it is a partial tear of the ACL. The rest of the knee looks perfect, just a little bone bruising. Being that I have to move my daughter to college in a month and the other is starting grad school at the same time he said that he...

That’s wild!

Went riding last Saturday on some nice private single track. It was a 25 mile loop. At about mile 12 or 13 in a wet spot with 3 single ruts, I decided to split the gap. My rear tire slid into a rut and it bucked me off, I put my right foot down to soften the landing and felt the Pop. I knew...

My dad is in the same boat, selling off all his WW2 toys, getting too old to crawl under them anymore. Most of the big stuff went to a museum in Wyoming I think

Because everyone has a Bren gun carrier. Dad had one years ago when I was a kid.

Everyone always said the n3 needles were more abrupt on power delivery. The Suzuki needles were smoother. I prefer the n3 for my style riding

Which carb do you have? I run a N3ch on my 250, but it has the 36mm Keihin

Any recommendations on separate start/stop switches?

is fork oil, mineral oil?? also, i found my problem. The giant multi switch for lights, starter, etc.. was an issue. Being that it is so freaking huge, i was not getting my full throw on the clutch lever. The lever was hitting the ring on the grip and smashing it onto the switch. This is...

I’ll try that, bad thing is I’m running out of mineral oil. No parts stores around here have any, so that sucks.

Something is not right, I have a feeling that something is keeping me from back bleeding. Not sure if the piston in the master is stuck or something. I have zero clutch pressure. The syringe will not back bleed at all, but if I try to bleed like normal, I am getting fluid out of the slave...

Yeah, I think I figured that out the hard way. I can’t for the life of me get the syringe to push fluid back up to the reservoir. I took the bleed screw out and made sure it was clear, backed out the adjuster all the way on the master. I still blew the hose off the bleeder and got mineral oil...

I bought a syringe a few months ago just in case I needed to do this. I guess it’s time. Just out of curiosity, when does your lever engage enough to slip?

So do you think that I have air in the system then? I’ve never opened anything up except the master to check fluid level.

I’ll give it a go, I just didn’t know what was considered normal for engagement.
