    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I thought it was an anti-foul for your spark plugs when you burn alot of oil. I used one on an old XS650. It takes the plug outside the cylinder so it doesn't foul as quickly.
But if it's a bicycle thinga ma jingy who am I to argue. :D
 
Thanks guy's! I enjoyed this thread as well at the expense of a little pride.:rolleyes:

Now I can commence with putting the bike back together! Soo close to getting it running.:D

I thought it was part of the binumulated turbolator...maybe the grochel attachment.

How in the world would a cantilever brake stud find it's way into a bag of parts for your motorcycle? Do you wrench on bicycles in addition to motorcycles? Seems very strange to me. Assuming it is a cantilever stud, the paint should be worn off since the stud is a load bearing surface for the brakes. In fact, there should be no paint at all on the stud unless someone did a respray on the bicycle at some point. Very strange indeed.
 
I really didn't have any bikes with cantilever brakes since I got into downhill mountain biking. Only things I can remember that had the mounts for them were my 98 Marzocchi Mr. T's and the Specialized Sworks TeamDH(the first year) iirc but it came from somewhere.

Either my dad or my mom must have painted it back in the day when they had the bike apart trying to track down the odd noise it was making(bad main bearing) since it looks just like the paint used on the motor.
