  1. OK, so here's what I found last night. The click is coming from a box, about 2" by 2.5", hanging right above the battery on the left side of the bike. Four wires lead into the top with a thick plastic clip around them. You have to pry up one of those recalcitrant plastic latches to detach it. The inside is burnt to shit and there is corrosion everywhere (fault of the side cover missing). Me smell homebrew electrical repair from the previous owner. Fortunately, I have a soldering iron and nothing looks too complicated. I can update with pics when I get home.
  2. "no body was found in my vehicle through legal means. Isn't it wonderful that our country doesn't permit individuals to surmount the constitution in pursuit of their own brand of justice?"
  3. Jesus I need to have you work on my bike... you're really talented dude.
  4. Ok... after a bit more exploration... When I press the starter button, there is a Sharp click that comes from the fuse box on the left side of the bike. There is a frayed wire there too. I think this is my problem.
  5. SpeedIn 1983, Cycle magazine reported that Jay Pee-Wee Gleason made a 10.92 second, 124.82 mph (200.88 km/h) quarter-mile run with a V65 Magna, which had the same engine as the V65 Sabre. The V65 Magna appeared for several years in the Guinness book of world records as the "fastest production motorcycle" with a calculated (but not real) top speed of over 160 mph (260 km/h). According to Honda: "the mighty V65 Sabre could launch from a standstill to 50 miles per hour in just 2.31 seconds!"

  16. HE'S GONE TO PLAID
  17. Finally tracked down a junkyard with a couple parts I needed for the V65. Rear shock for 175, Side panel for 100. Decent price? Offer 230 for the both of them? Lemme know.
  18. probably using both feet to drive. left on brake, right on gas, used both in a panic and the gas won for a second until he panicked, swerved, boom.
