TOPIC:

I put the stock head light back on. recoverd the seat and added some turn signals that I will change someday.

well thought about giving her a wash, walked past and checked the oil level, it was ok, just did an oil change and filter last weekend, I worked Saturday so sunday was my only day off so I didn't wash her, at least the thought was there, maybe next weekend.

Since I moved the compressor into the toolbox when I removed the fairing, I've had an intermitant electrical fault. Tracked it down today. Feeling good.

those are some beefy handle bars on your bike !!!!!

Took the handle bars, switches, dash and all apart to clean up and work on freeing up the throttle cables. Throttle tube appears to be metal but haven't looked at it deeply yet.

Cables slide freely in the sheaths, so down to the Carb Bodies.

Removed Air boxes and took carbs out. Began sprating down linkages with WD40 and letting it sit for a bit.

Everything looks clean and good, no rust on the insides. Butterflies just wont butter.

I think I will be looking at the, for lack of the proper term, pivot rod that the linkages attach to. it may be locked up.

Got both sets of AW-82 coils in. Need to test them and decide on three (hopefully) working ones to use.

To be honest:

I Need to work on her, remove the battery for the winter as I can feel the snow coming, and some parts Need to be removed & cleaned

thanks for reminding me ...
