Pic of the week game

[Eli69]

When pulling swing arm back, out falls this nut - with part of a bolt in it yet (or that is what I though at that moment).....

I had about no idea what that was, nor what it meant.
Even though I was disassembling because I knew was some problem in there, and folks here (bwringer and others) had tried to explain to me what I might find.
THen the flange (on left) came out also. Hey, that is suppose to be held in place by a nut on the threaded end of the secondary gear. . . . Oh, Oh, now, oh, now I am starting to understand.... Oh, Oh...... what, what have I gotten into? THis is more than I can deal with.

THe picture itself does not convey that, unless you are familiar with what are seeing and know what it should be like, and know what has happened, and know that I did not understand that as the part fell out.

I think I had that exact problem on my gs850. Quite the learning experience. The weird thing is it got me home like that. Probably about 40 miles.

Having only ever rebuilt 1 or 2 cylinder engines..."what have i got myself into?".....a big bore kit for a CBX.

I bought my 1100G in 2014 and couldn't for the life of me figure out why the oil cooler is mounted like this?

For someone who understands how network traffic passes between systems but can't tell you which color wire the electrons use to make that passage (and yes I'm kidding), this first time into my headlight bucket was very daunting. Thankfully I can finally spell electricity.

Ok. There's no blue wire in the manual. What now?

Well this is my take on "what did I get myself into". This is the first pic I took of my 80 750 when I got it home on the day I bought it. My first bike in 27 years....this was just over 9 years ago....boy a lot has happened in my garage since then..lol
Forgive the quality

Let's vote!

First the theme by Eli69:

"State of Confusion" or maybe "What did I get Myself Into?"

More to follow....

 

[Baatfam]

And the rest....

And that should be all of them. (Let us know if it is not)

Don't forget to vote!

 

[Burque73]

Happy, "Next Week Is The Two Year Anniversary Of This Game," Friday!..........

Unless we just skip 2020 altogether, it's actually the third anniversary.

 

[Burque73]

Voting for Trevor.

 

[Baatfam]

Good morning all,

I'll have to go with 1978GS750E this week. It's the photo that really made me say WTF.
