Oh they already did tons of imaging at the er MRI x rays all of it....but good feedback I might wait a few days to go as well just to see if anything else creeps up

Yes the driver stuck around and was insured I'm currently in the process of getting a motorcycle lawyer.

Thanks guys!!

As some of you have probably seen my post about working on my 77 xs650. I just recently put about 1200 bucks into it tires Sprockets Chain carbs (vm34s w/ pods) new bars new breaks other maintenance stuff. Well today an asshole tried to do an illegal u turn using a one way street and "didn't see...

Started with a gross seat pan. Used "Evapo-rust" and wire hand brush. To be honest Evapo did most of the work this stuff is a great product. Cleaned up a little more after this with a multi tool sander but you get the idea. Self etching primer did its job I guess. Finished with Krylon auto...

Should I have a left hand and a right hand or 2 of the same carb? Thanks

My seat is hinged as well. I really like that. I'm guessing any of the hinged seat pans will work on a 77 frame with hinged seat?

I'm with you! The seat is terrible. It's on the list after the rest of the maintenance new carbs and dash is done.

Before and after from today's project.

Took for a 30 minute ride down the highway to the weed shop lol and all was well. Right now I'm just trying to figure out what I want since I've decided to keep it. Cleaning up the wiring and cables is on the list for sure. I'm gonna knock that out once I figure out what electrically the dash is...

I went to a new shop I found. And he said they don't work on scoots! He can get me in next week. Front tire rear tire sprockets chain front pad and rear pads for 275$!!!!! He was a little upset I didn't buy my stuff from him so I told him if I bring him parts that are not compatible I'll give...

Yes! The company ji but the tire revzilla.com is a vendor for them and they said go there....25bucks a tire mounted and balance if you buy it from them or a vendor! It didn't say I had to remove the wheels I'll check em out. Thanks! I know the sprockets are and easy chain and I guess I could...

Brave man!

The problem is getting them to take my money! One guy was just to cool for school. I've agreed to two quotes but it's scooter season(scooters are kinda a thing here) in stl and they are booked for weeks out and I'm on "new" tires with a 2008 date code so I am in a rush to get these old tires...

I won't lie I didn't look at em all but I saw the one with huuuuuuge seat! Do that!

Easy bro I got 4 quotes. All were $200-$250 except one he was $550. in his defense he is good at what he does and I know that. Anyway I don't mess with certain things because there is a very important young lady who sits on the back sometimes and I'm not a mechanic gotta know your limits. Don't...

More parts just arrived. Anyone have experience with niche chains? I did some research on them and they get high reviews. I come from the sportbike side but don't think a DID or RK like I would have put on my older bikes that had triple the hp was necessary. I've always liked the way the gold...

I do most of my own stuff and work on it a lot. There are also a lot of things I won't do. Taking my rear tire off and re install is one of those things. I also don't like messing around with the brakes. But you better believe I'm bolting those new 34s when they get here. Got some MikesXS 13...
