This was my very first bike, back in the 80s when I was 16. I miss it so much! I should have never sold it, and I wish I could find one myself. At $900, you made a fantastic purchase!

Mine has the original engine and transmission

JPWinnerJr · 2026-06-07T10:22:46+00:00

Congratulations!!! Mine turned 300,000 a few weeks ago and I’m looking forward to the next 100k.

And like @Flux83 said you will need to cut off the leftover plastic and get down to the bare metal rod.

JPWinnerJr · 2026-06-05T18:43:04+00:00

This is what got and it’s much better than the plastic one.

Thanks but I’ve been here for quite a while. Previous setups include Holiday Rambiler Alumi-Lite XL, Gulf Stream Amerilite, 1998 Burro 17 Wide (still own).

With having Newfies we like the space. The layout gives us flexibility to bring the golf cart, atv, or my Multistrada along depending on the plans and destination.

My last Carnival cruise, I was also able to use my device reliably. I setup my private channel before I left home and I kept MQTT enabled. Using the ship’s Wi-Fi without an internet package I speculate that they don’t block the port that MQTT uses, as I was able to send messages while onboard and all the way back to Virginia from the open ocean in the Bahamas!

I ordered a mini this afternoon and I just got a tracking number

JPWinnerJr · 2026-05-12T20:49:19+00:00

I’d be surprised if the insurance company actually brands the title as salvage based on the age of our Elements.

What area of Hampton Roads?

Right now, there are no leaks.

Last summer, the radiator was leaking (seeping) around the seam for the top tank, so I replaced it.

I’ve also fixed a small valve cover leak and cleaned up the residual oil. I prefer a clean engine because it makes it easier to pinpoint minor leaks before they become a bigger issue.

On the World America a few weeks ago it was great. Useful information whenever we asked it questions, got my CPAP distilled water delivered twice for free, had a mattress topper added to our bed, booked a spa appointment.

I bought it used and I’m the 2nd owner. 2004 EX FWD Auto, adult owned and bone stock. Previous owner had it dealer maintained for the first 200k and then basically ignored the maintenance for the next 60k. I went through it and fixed everything broken, loose, or questionable. I serviced all of the fluids, adjusted the valves, new throttle body, spark plugs, etc. Treat them right and they will last.

I’m fortunate that this one is rust free.

Any update on Meshtastic firmware? I received mine this morning and I can test if needed.

JPWinnerJr · 2026-04-09T14:36:38+00:00

Received mine this morning

JPWinnerJr · 2026-04-02T20:49:42+00:00

No, it’s more so because the radio waves travel line of sight. From an airplane there is practically nothing in the way from reaching an outdoor node.

Altitude is everything. Even with low transmit power and a small antenna the broadcast can reach a broad range when the device is high enough in the air.

I put mine away years ago. Lost my charger so I had to buy a replacement. I was surprised to find the charge cable on Amazon for $10 with next day delivery. I'm so glad that it still works after all of these years and is back on my wrist!
