New to wrenching, but work with electrical people that may be able to lend a hand. Will take tank off tonight and see if anything appears strange.

Will look this evening, first goal is to get home on it. Luckily only 10 miles away and mostly back roads. Thanks for all the help!

Battery was at 12.9 before starting. Went up to 14 while running, sputtered and died. Started back up and idled.

BIke starts, battery tested OK while off 12.8. Will go out and test it as you suggested while running and see if it improves while doing so.

Had a horrible ride into work today. There was a stopped train on the tracks I have to cross and my bike acted up and has been doing so since. I noticed something odd almost like it was out of gas kind of lurching. Once stopped at the train, I decided to go another route and all thru 3rd gear it lurched and sporadically lunged untill finally dying after a mile. It wouldn't start at all. I was able to get it started and get to the office a few miles away, but had to practically pin the throttle just to keep it idling. Nor did it sound right while riding. Another thing that happened is the tach would bounce all over the place in RPMs, no matter what the engine was doing. Tach read 0 at some points while sitting at a light in idle and would jump all the way up to past 8000 and all over the place. Bike is a 1988 Honda Hawk. What I can find online states battery, rectifier, coil contacts, carb cleaning, so not really sure where to start. Anyone got suggestions? Thanks!

Still available!

Nice Cross Check! Wish I had gone with it vs the LHT.

Piggly Wiggly (Surly - Long Haul Trucker) for touring duties and Stealthy Ninja (Cervelo - S5) for fast rides. An OR ride sounds fun and I would be interested. Can only do Sundays, but would be cool to explore some new roads. Would also be open to having a meet up at my place and can ride thru Metro Park up here. The road has been freshly paved and looking forward to riding it lots this season! Life is better on 2 wheels, with or without a motor!

Ha! What is the event in may? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Would be interested but am biking to Buffalo that day, first double century!

Will stop in for a bit after work

I would suggest Fatheads brewery. There is an area that can be reserved or at least open to the public that has pool tables, skee ball, good beers, and good food. Call ahead to see if that area is reserved or not I work by the IX and a few other good spots nearby are Grayton Tavern and Brew Garden. I work Sat till 8:30, but may be able to stop by and say hello after work.

I bought this when I went to Indy MotoGP in 2013 to bring back for the misses as a surprise. She has worn it once or twice as has my daughter, so it's basically brand new. Size is a 44. Looking to get $350 for it. Here's some links with some more info on it as well. http://www.dainese.com/us_en/g-zima-gore-tex.html http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-womens-zima-gore-tex-jacket

Interested, what time would you be leaving North Ridgeville? Would be able to meet up someplace here in NEO to head down in the am if ya want. Haven't been able to get out as much as I would like due to XC season, but weather permitting would be in for this.
