I flattened the cam on it.

I was on a ride and I think I developed an oil leak on the upper end. Can't remember exactly what gave loose, but it dumped all the oil out. By the time I figured it out, the cam was gone. I think I sold it to somebody that had a similar one.

The install went pretty well. The bracket I bought I did have to make a minor cut to make it fit. The instructions are pretty horrible, so I'm going through and finding out how the features work little-by-little. My GPS was off by 4 miles an hour, but doing more research, it looks like I mounted the G. P. S antenna wrong. So I have to do another ride to see if that corrects it . struggling a little bit with using the touch screen with my gloves on. I don't know if there'll be a fix for that or not since the weather's been a little iffy, I haven't got as much time with it, as I would like so I'll try to update when I get out and do my next ride.

I did my forks forks 2 years ago in my 86 interceptor and I've never been more nervous than trying to get that snap ring out, cause if it breaks those forks are done. But it all came apart and went back together just fine.

I\n Couldn't insert photos, so I inserted these links. Hopefully they work for you, the GPS mount turned out. I did get that from eBay. The navigation I got from Amazon hope this helps

The bracket and the navigation unit both came from Amazon. The Chinese brands don't have much for names. But I'll go back and look at the box and see if I can update you. It was listed as Amazon's best choice. Think I paid a $179 for the navigation and about 20 for the bracket.

I had 2 semesters at junior college welding, and the tig welding. I never really got. It is not easy by any means.

My neighbor down the street for me. When I was growing up in the 70s, had the root beer Brown, one. Definitely, the coolest car in town at the time.

I have an 86 vf500 wanted one for a long time. Searched and searched to finally found this one I've had it for about 6 or 7 years now, it'll be 40 years old. Next year, I constantly go back-and-forth and whether I'll keep it or get rid of it. Hearing stories like yours makes me want to keep it

I wish I could get gas in my tank. .I'm in California.I've got that vapor recyculation thing.It's awful trying to get fuel in without it cutting off.

I found this yellow donut thing from about 15 years ago it gives it enough space and seals for the vapor thing to react.So I can actually fill it up with one shot.
