    Oil Drain Bolt Gasket

    Thanks for the replies guys. Huron - Holy cow! 240K k's - whatever your doing keep doing it, because it must be right! If I am out around Alex's (reply on other board) I'll get a few from him....just in case it is damaged per C&C. Or maybe stop in at an auto store for a copper one too...

    Oil Drain Bolt Gasket

    Hi All, Looking to see if anyone has a source other than the stealer for the metal gasket (or as others have called it, the crush washer.) Yamha's Part no. is 214-11198-01-00. I have no Yamaha dealer with-in 20 mi of me thanks to the destruction of our economy since 2008. On a side...

    Lunch ride meet-up?

    Tango, thanks for response. I am far north of Starved R. and thought it would have have been good for the more southern riders in area to meet. Maybe you guys down there can set one up and see what response you might get. We had done this at Starved R. some years ago as a large group. As I...

    Lunch ride meet-up?

    Ok no response. Just as well. Friend from Cal. coming in to ride a little here, once we get him a bike to do so. But, I guess, I won't suggest a meet-up ride down south, like say Staved Rock for Sept or Oct.

    Lunch ride meet-up?

    Hi to all, Read about the SW spin. Sounded good. Had an idea for those that can only get away for the day. How 'bout a lunch meet-up in Lake Geneva? Maybe in a couple of weeks or so, weather permitting. You take your own casual ride or whatever there...chat,eat, hookup with others for a...

    Pics from my trip to Black Hills

    Nice. I remember riding those roads 100 years ago.....on my CB900C. Those pics were the reasons I left city hell, in the summers to go touring the really nice parts of the country. Someday......

    Battery Holddown Bolt

    ion - that's a good idea. I will try that when I get a chance. Looks like the weekend since we are getting biblical rain...which means biblical basement clean-up. I didn't lose the bolt.......my universe swallowed it.

    Battery Holddown Bolt

    That's another idea. I just might need some other parts though. Like those crush washers for the oil drain bolt. Just saw other replies. Thanks ion - I need to go to Home Depot, so that might work or stop at Ace like Tom said. gixxer - Your stealer in DFW steals less than ours...I'm almost...

    Battery Holddown Bolt

    Thanks Mihalis. Thats a nice site. Wonder what shipping would be though? Looks like shipping could be two bucks, if thats right that would be OK. Has anyone else used these guys?

    Battery Holddown Bolt

    Hi All, Getting the bike back ready for the riding season I lost the allen bolt that holds the battery brackets together. Anyone know the specs on it? I would rather source from someone other than a stealer. They probabaly want alot for it.

    Lunch meet in April?

    Yeah Dave that might work, but after two days of cleaning water in basement I'm too pooped to ride now. More rain on the way. Maybe by the end of the month I'll dry out. I'm sure I'll get some riding in somehow this year. Mods vs Rockers at Delilahs in Chicago on Sat. June 19th for anyone that...

    Lunch meet in April?

    Thinking about a get together and was wondering how anyone else would feel about it. Last weekend in April - Sat. or Sun lunch meet. I thought about down south - how about Two Brothers Brewery. Heard they had good food and of course good beer. Maybe the guys from south can pick a nice ride back...
