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.

So I decided this weekend that since it was going to be hazy, 95, humid and just plain unbearable in the afternoons I would do some much-missed late evening riding in the cool, moist air.

Thinking that that was the plan I decided to take the opportunity that afternoon to replace a few old-looking and questionable wires and put in the new battery that i had ordered a few weeks ago but had never put in.

* Just as a side note, my bike has such a funny-size battery that nobody around hear usually stocks it and I have to order it from JCW or somewhere. *

So when I got started on that stuff, I decided I would take the time to re-route some wires that the previous owner had carelessly routed. Then I decided to clean the electrical contacts, clean the plugs which hadn't been out in a while, spray-down and re-lube the chain, each task leading to one more...

Next thing I know, the weekend is gone and I've only put 50 miles on.
