    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Thanks!

The secret is to get them professionally waxed before ever using them for the first time (I have some white wheels on one of the Alfas and it worked great - easy to clean...)! ;)

Any way, here are some shots taken today; the bike is basically back together and looking great - ready to ride again! The V&H pipes came in today as well, so tomorrow it's just installing the pipes, cut the new Dyna DW-800 plug-wires to length, crimp the connectors on & install, mount the new Dyna green coils & hook it all up, add gas and go!

Can't wait! I'll probably black-out those tank-emblems as well as the side-cover emblems at some point to match the wheels!

It is a custom re-padding and cover that was performed here in Seattle by a local upholsterer...
 
Also, so you know, the bike will be MUCH faster & more powerful if you paint the engine black too!! :D Ray.

It would look really good with a black engine. Would an '83 engine just slip right into that Ray?
 
How do you change the oil with a pipe like that? Do you have to take it off each time? I never had an aftermarket exhaust, so excuse the ignorance.
