    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

A skunk in the works

***edit*** they both came down the same assembly line. ;)
 
I'm not even gonna try fooling with the self cancel. Screw it.
MIne has a C seat. I think the E seats look like crap.
That and some blacked out rusty chrome bits it's gonna be pretty much stock.
I like the flat color side covers so they stay:)

I dig the idea of a "different" color Skunk. Even thought about reversing the colors. White base with a black stripe down the middle of the tank. OEM pin stripes. But the idea of owning a white bike is a bit weird.
 
Should see the pics I have of the WHITE 83 750 Interceptor I did about 25 years ago.The wife really likes it.
Been doing some stripping,

Didn't seem to do much to the stuff on the front though.May try again after work though.
 
I can't say whether or not they're kidding, but I'm almost positive they're having a wet dream.
 
Think it's the same guys with a bunch of other gold plated parts:hand:Speaking of pipes traded Rob the good side for ones with a rotted muffler.Better than hacking up a good one for me.

You do know that the OEM part number in the microfische conains the screw size, right? For example, 01547-06407 is a 6mm x 40mm bolt. The microfische on MANY of the parts houses websights show the OEM part # ... and the factory "Case Cover" fische is pretty well laid out.
Just look at the part #, location, measure the bolt and put them in.:dancing:

Yeah I spent the time when I got my kit from Z1 and sorted them out case cover by case cover which made it really easy when I was putting the covers back on.

Heh, mine came already labeled:dancing:
 
Good Therapy to pass the time! If you are done with the caps and bowls, you can hit them with a coat of car wax now to help keep them for oxidizing again. I use an old soft toothbrush to buff the wax out of the hard to reach places you just can't get to with a cloth. I usually don't with fork lowers because they are easier to get to and polish on a more regular basis.
 
Actually I hit them with the Dupli-Color clear wheel coating then baked them.Turned out real nice!
I hate repolishing:D
