Hey, I'm in Murrells Inlet SC, you have my city blank.
Johnny Webb has Myrtle Beach listed for him, I'm about 20 minutes South of there.
What time period are you anticipating for SC?? My fiancee wants to take a trip to NY , I don't want to go. She said sometime in Sept, maybe.
That's a hell of a road trip there, but it might be nice to take a several month trip to travel around, meet some new folks, say hey to some that you have hung with before, and play traveling mechanic. Actually wish I could hit the road for a bit sometimes. If you love wrenching on these machines that just adds bonus points, and I bet you do love what you do.

I live as far away from Webb & phideux as you can get and still be in
South Carolina... I live near Seneca, in Oconee County. I might be
closer to some of  your Georgia customers.

Anywho... if you set up anywhere near me, I'll bring you my bike. Valve adjustment,
carburetor sync and replace timing belts & pulleys... I have the timing belts and
pulleys already.

You got some good riding up there in Oconee, I used to go up outside of Walhalla to hunt and camp. Nothing like camping in December to hunt up there. Used to stay at Whetstone camp in the National Forest.

I'm on the way from OSS to Buffalo, in Woodstock Ny, Right off the NY Thruway. I could use a carb cleaning, and God knows what else since I can't keep it from backfiring. Would also love to change out some shocks. Thanks.

Mike, is Big BF going to come to your house? Can I get in on the fun? I'm thinking I need a new clutch because one time I'll pull the handle and it's fine, next time it's an inch from the bar. I've had the slave cylinder changed and a bushing in the handle but the problem still exists.
I wanted to ask you before I ask Big BF since I will probably need to leave it to be fixed and come back for it when it's done.

[Dickl]

No, the gas qty is either a tank, or a sending unit or sensor or the gauge.

[DarkSideR]

Add me to the list in Pueblo, CO. (on your way Seth in Gunnison). Need that Neutral Switch replaced. I have the switch but nothing else. What date are you going to be swinging through my town?

You will need to get gasket for it, get oil, oil filter. Oil will need to drain out to get the cover off to replace switch.

You will need to get those parts. I don't have clutch parts with me. I only have clutch master cylinder kit.

Great thank you. Looking forward to having you out.

I have some questions:
- Do you know the Gasket part number I need to order?
  + I did some looking on my own but there isn't a Microfiche for gaskets to find the correct one.
- What date are you planning on being here?

Lastly, I will drain the oil (and have replacement oil/filter) take the valve cover off, as much as I feel comfortable doing on my own prior to you arriving.

Thank you,

Josh

You checked it at InZane (Blue & White Standard). But as a reminder..
Symptoms;
Kickstand DOWN
- Neutral light ON in neutral.
- Netural light OFF in gear.
Normal behavior with kickstand down.

Kickstand UP
- Neutral light ON all the time.
 +Neutral light dim in gear, but brighter in neutral.

I will have all the parts ready and will be good to go. I also have a place for  you to park your truck & trailer.

Thanks

Keep in mind that in the Gunnison Valley mid-October can feel more like early winter than late fall.

Keep in mind that in the Gunnison Valley anything past mid-October can seem more like early winter than late fall.

On the flip side late fall in Pueblo is perfect weather. Seth you might have to get your bike to my house if weather doesn't permit.

Ok no problem.

[MarkT]

Hey BigBF

I asked this on FB but I'm not so good at navigating on that.

Do you do any tuning on Magnacharged Valks?  Got a hesitation I'd like to tune out.  I also have space for your truck & trailer - and a hot tub, nice quiet ranch with great margarita's and some killer baby back ribs for ya.  About 45 min N of Damon in Co Springs.

[phideux]

On mine I probably just want the carbs gone through, maybe re-jetted to match the exhaust if needed, de-smogged I guess. I also need some wiring, I put LED signals and they now work like 4 way flashers. I have the diode kit, I guess I just need it wired in. Also need the rear brake light/switch/whatever hooked up or wired in. Do I need to get any parts/pieces, or do you keep stuff like that on hand???

[Valkorado]

On the flip side late fall in Pueblo is perfect weather. Seth you might have to get your bike to my house if weather doesn't permit.

That would work, but I'm wanting him to look at both bikes.
