Done did it. ADT sucks, I'm definitely not THEIR fan on Facebook.

The way he did it is fine. It's the way he's trying to do the rest that's illegal. Not that I care.. and he'll probably find someone to do it for him' date=' but he could have saved himself a lot of aggravation by not being hasty.[/quote']

That much I'll completely agree with.

Plus, the title I got overnighted to me was notarized, and none of that shady lowballing the purchase price.

I don't see anything wrong with the way you did it, it's just a little more work on your end, and his end. When I bought the Vstar a few days ago, he still had a lien on it. He owned a business in town, though, so I was fine with forking over the cash, getting a bill of sale on his company letterhead, and him saying he'd get the title in a timely manner. I also trusted him to deliver the bike to me. I was a little nervous about that, since I paid in advance. Point is, he delivered it to my door, paid off his lien at Knox County bank, and overnighted the title to me. Not everyone is out to screw people, claim theft on a bike, or any sort of other shady crap.

Well, now all I have left to do is put all this crap back together, hopefully the right way.

nah, it is a fun place. At least that is what your woman said.

Don't I wish.

Take me to bed or lose me forever.

It's a trap!!

While she is much prettier and smarter than myself I stand by my statement that at speed she can't tell the differance between leather and cotton. With that said I wonder if I can sneak my new Joe Rocket blaster pants by her if I say they are cheap sweats....

cheap is relative. Compared to your bike, or your house, the Blaster pants are cheap, and therefore, even if you get busted, you can stand by the logic that at least they were cheap.

lol working on your bike ?

To the average passerby, yes.

I posted even when I didn't know what I was talking about. It's how I learned a thing or two.

Welcome, though

If you ride through Bethel Commons, I'll wave. Otherwise, I probably won't leave my garage for 3-19 days.

Just cuz we don't drink beer and ride home?

welcome

I'll give you $995 for it.

assuming he is wanting all the extended cables, clutch, brake, throttle

unbolt banjo from caliper/calipers from the brake line

drain in to coffee can

unbolt throttle cables from carb

unbolt clutch cable from side of motor

unbolt controls from bars

loosen nuts on the throttle to loosen the cable up, take apart throttle housing

pull cables from throttle housing

unbolt banjo bolt from your mastercylinder (brake resevoir)

if i had the time id come help ya out, but i have to head to work in a few

loosen clutch cable at lever, remove clutch cable from lever

keep your banjo bolts and washers

pull controls from bars completely

keep your controls/throttle tube, levers

prepare to buy new brake lines, clutch cable, throttle cables

install everything back to bike with new bars

enjoy bleeding brakes and coming back on here asking for someone to help lol

Well, at least you'll be prepared if I need to ask for help with the brake bleeding. I'm getting there, slowly but surely. To be honest, when I started this job, I didn't expect I'd be sitting here looking at my bike all in pieces. It's good learnin, though.

New bars are sitting safely in the garage, no worries.

Yeah, he's getting the extended lines, too.

So, I got the apehangers sold. Today is a happy day. I'm now trying to remove them from the bike, as well as the cables. So far, i've managed to get the grips off, unbolt the controls, and now I'm stuck. www.e-how.com has failed me.

Any advice for how to proceed? I've already got in the back of my mind that removing the brake line is going to be a hassle, as well as a mess.

It's one of those things where I'm doubting my mechanical aptitude, but I want to do it myself, and save the $117 IP would charge me to do it.

Anybody near Dublin that's free right now that would want to come teach me how to do this for $50 or just out of the kindness of your heart? Not sure where else to go from here. I ordered a manual thing, but it's not here yet, and this guy is picking up these beautiful apes today at 4:00.

Sadly, no. Think more New Rome-esque.

Ahh.. 'nuff said.

2 cops plus one waiting ahead... That IS the entire force, isn't it?

I want to know what the # was for in his historic grocery list

For most people, it means pound. I took it to mean one pound of bologna, BUT, for this guy, maybe it means #1 most important thing, so they can make beanie wienies for dinner, and it's cheaper than hot dogs, and just as good.

Keep youer eiz opin fer moar lissts

Dumbass, you spelt listeses wrong.

milch? milet?

Great, he lost the grosheree list. Probably spent the money on hookers and blow. Though, with spelling like that, I'm guessing he had that magic money card from the state.

Good food..nice people..and an awesome day to ride

We still need to go ride sometime. Maybe now, or wait til I get another sport bike type thing.

Ahh, okay.

badass, man. Congrats!

nice bike. I do like. Looks good in person.
