Posted March 28, 200618 yr Moderator UPS dropped off my parts today & I got right to work reassembling.... No more fuel worries with a new petcock assembly .....& the motor breathes much better now with new manifolds & a clean carb..... My oldest boy told me the finished product resembles one of these ..... See for yourself..... Outside of the black paint showing the imperfections of the fuel tank a bit more The next item on the agenda is a pair of Black fork gators to keep 'em from getting too mucky & wearing out the seals So now the old Beast looks like a true Urban Assault Vehicle....& not some Orange/Yellow Bavarian BoatAnchor like Pete's Beemer Also...does anyone know where I can get a hold of a coupla Rocket Launchers for cheap? That oughta make those Bluddy Cagers get the Hell outta the way!
March 28, 200618 yr Moderator Try ebay Scott most things are sold on there, if not make a couple of dummy ones from plywood looking good though Merv
March 29, 200618 yr Author Moderator Girl's Bike, eh? .... That accusation doesn't hold much weight coming from a guy who runs for cover everytime he see's the 1st sign of a cloud in the sky! But @ least you gotta give me credit for Sorting the Downpipes!
April 2, 200618 yr "Outside of the black paint showing the imperfections of the fuel tank a bit more " time to do the old brush handel down the fuel filler hole trick.... Mint bike though...
April 3, 200618 yr Author Moderator Yeah....I might just have to have another go with that method there Mick Ultimately, I'd like to get a Black plastic tank from Clarke MFG......which I believe they make in a 4gal. size-- Which would definitely increase the fuel range a bit.....not to mention decrease the weight as well But I just can't see coughing up $180+ for it right now.

Thats easy mate. Once you've got your rocket launchers fixed go to the nearest dealer and ask them politely for them I'm sure once they take a look at the bike they'll soon give them too you for free
April 3, 200618 yr Author Moderator Good point there Robbie... Maybe I should just rename those launchers....as a pair of Persuaders
