Who here has waved and crashed or knows someone who has waved and crashed?

You don't wave at anyone when you drive your car, or pedal your bicycle, or push your skateboard.

I'm so glad we don't have to wave at other track riders. That would really be silly.

Jacket size? I know you've indicated large, but am curious as to exact size.

Winners are mojocho, redkow97, BMMW, and aforest4. PMs incoming to you four with details.

We'll have more stuff to give away soon.

Oh, Yeah! Thank YOu Thank yOu!!!

Thanks to Nick, STT and Casper!!

SOLD

Not sure of the weight. I've pulled two bikes on it with my 4-cyl S-10 and it got us to Deal's Gap and back a few times.

Converted jet ski trailer. Two or three bikes can fit on this. Currently setup for two sportbikes. Extra bike rail included. Aluminum 1/4" decking and tie down eyes. 12" tires and 1-7/8" ball fitment with cables and hooks. The axle has been moved forward from it's original jetski trailer position. Galvanized frame with welded in sub-deck supports. Approximately 14' long. 

I've used this for a few years and am selling because I'd like a narrower trailer. $550

I saw some potholes at Nelson's

Haterz. Haterz, everywhere!

Were not H8TRS ... just riders that don't enjoy fisting from stealerships supplying black assless chaps and substandard overpriced vehicles.

Yea, I've never seen a sportbike do anything like that. Never go over the double yellow line, never seen one doing whoolies on a residential street. Sure wish I was as perfect as all the sportbikers are.  :asshats:

I think this thread started out as discussing performance, and it included HD. So my comment was to correlate a rider and his bike. I observed a struggling rider being dragged about by his ride and wondered how he'd fair on a performance machine.

All this performance talk and ... just yesterday ... I see this HD guy making a right on red. No problem, until he runs wide across the lane and uses both the double yellow line and part of the oncoming lane to finish his turn. I'm sure one or two of you have seen the same thing, over and over.

If they cant even ride how on Earth could they take advantage of anything even remotely performance oriented?

The bike was originally idling ok and then it would idle high and gradually wind down and stall. I read up some info on the GS500 forum where they were stating it was lean from the factory, and suggested jetting changes. I made those changes and it ran ok for a bit last summer. Its now barely starting. I'm guessing I may have to go through the carbs and clean up again. My cousins bike and it sat in the cold through the winter.

I have the HAYNES SERVICE AND REPAIR MANUAL for this bike.

 

I'm willing to type verbatim straight from the manual to help you out.

 

It's written in the UK.  Pardon the spellings.

 

The fuel system consists of the fuel tank, the main fuel cock and filter,

the fuel tap, the carburettors, fuel hoses and control cables.

 

The main fuel cock mounted on the underside of the fuel tank incorporates

a filter which sits inside the tank.  The remote fuel tap is of the vacuum type.

 

Let me know if you need info.  I'll be in and out all day and available tomorrow.

 

PM me for Phone number if you want details researched.

 

.Thank You for the info. I do have access to the manuals and internet pdf info.

I did clean the carbs. There was a bit of dirt in em'. Pilot circuit is clean. Jets were replaced with the next larger sizes. I checked for air leaks. I checked the float level, externally. I will be checking the tank filter and fuel cap next. May be some dirt in there or a vent blockage.

The GS500 forum indicates this bike is lean from the factory. I've got carb experience and did rejet it. It's been hit or miss, before and after, and is still being troublesome. Is there anyone near Cleveland that can help me finish tuning this bike?

Thanks in Advance

Any "Build Parties" to occur in Ohio?

I've already used a Sharpie to mark the inside of my rims and engine cases. Someone should call me or the police when they find the info. Or not.

No test rides. I will run up and down my street on my bike for you. Buy it if you like, or go away.
