Re: Dial-A-Jet?

The dial-a-jet supposedly has the ability to vary the AFM by 20%- that is a pretty dramatic range.

However, the real appeal is to be able to make AFM adjustments without having to pull the bowl off the carb etc.

They even make a remote version so you can tune from the handlebars.

Dial-A-Jet?

These look really cool http://www.thunderproducts.com/dial_a_jet.htm Has anyone used them? The Big Ruckus guys swear by them. Seems like an awesome product if you get your jetting fairly close and then use the dial-a-jet to make the final adjustments to AFM without having to constantly replace jets....

Re: Dirt Cheap DIO Style motor- Michigan (not mine)

That sucks-

Ususally with Craigslist that means that the item is sold- but it would be nice if people would remove the ad when the item is gone.

Try flagging the ad if he wont respond.

Because the Elite part is not remarkable- the DIO part is.

You don't call a Civic with an Integra motor an Integra. You still call it a Civic.

Not mine by the way, but looks like a good deal. Just thought I would pass it along.

Re: What is this ?

Actually you can buy brand new panels for that bike from a guy in San Francisco. $220 or so for a complete set in several colors. Check SF craigslist.

Those 87's are nice bikes- I have one

Re: Deepinnaharta Depression: JiangWayne's 26mm ExpChmbr Pipe

Wheelman,

Any Midas or muffler shop would be able to cut the pipe turn it out and weld it back up for you- probably for a nominal charge. My only concern is that I think those pipes come with some sort of clear-coat on them which might not stand up to the welding.

Re: (I dread asking) but how stiff is your rod?

Have you tried PB Blaster? It has never failed me yet for loosening rusty bolts, pipes etc. spray a whole bunch down into the crankcase and let it sit for a couple of days.

I'll bet it loosens that conrod right up.
