    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.

Why don't I label washers and bolts?

This is what you get for spreading a rebuild project on an engine you've never done before over three months. You think I'd have learned my lesson by now, but instead I'm doing the ol' "what do these go to" shuffle again.
Got the Vesrah kit, and in there are four flat silver washers with rubber on one side. The content list has them as "washer o-rings". I want to say these came off the four bolts securing the exhaust to the bottom of the bike, around the crossover pipe/ muffler. Anyone want to take a stab? In return, I'll offer this advice: don't throw ALL the bolts from a project into one big pile and walk away for months expecting to remember what happened when you put everything back together. :oops:
 
There are four "sealing washers" under the four philips head screws at the left and right ends of the valve cover. They are supposed to be replaced when the valve cover is removed.

Why would you want to take all the detective work out of the assembly? That's half of the fun. Ha, Ray
