    Road salt and winter riding

    I've used Salt Away for years. Before leaving for Bonneville I wash the underside of my car with Salt Away. When I get back home I take the car to a self-car-wash and then respray with Salt Away. Then the bike. Works well to get rid of the salt

    850 Le Mans center stand mods

    Hey Dr. B, I have found using body weight and some body straightening, standing on the very end of the center stand foot (at the curled end) and rolling the bike backwards works OK. 77 850 Lemans 72 Yrs. Geezer

    Eldo Sugar Cube Thread Size?

    I think I'll reassemble and reinstall as is. The original symptom was stalling after 5 or so highway miles. The left shut of valve's internal rubber seal had rotated causing very limited flow in Open position. No flow in the Reserve position. The engine would resume running when the right...

    Eldo Sugar Cube Thread Size?

    My lathe will cut 1mm thread. I tried to make some threaded 12mm rod out of plastic rod, then aluminum. ... but I couldn't grind a cutter down enough to establish threads. So Grainger has some nice pipe rubber plugs Item 2HCF4 Mfr. Model 269840 They're for 1/2" ID pipe so I hadda grind them...

    Eldo Sugar Cube Thread Size?

    Thanx John. My monkey wrench with numbers (aka caliper) reads just short of 12mm. My thread gauge shows 1.0 mm/t. This is an odd combination, so I thought I'd ask if anyone KNEW what the spec was. As far as I can tell the standards are 1.75 mm/t , 1.5 mm/t, and 1.25mm/t for M12 bolts. Maybe...

    Eldo Sugar Cube Thread Size?

    Anyone know what size the thread is on the old Eldo sugar cube fuel petcock? Looks like 12mm with a 1mm/thread ... thread. I want to clean out the gas tank (shaky shaky) w/o the petcocks installed. Thinking a "standard" bolt would fit... maybe.

    Build Quality T3 California

    I got a buddy with a Big Dawg. His side stand fell off during a long(ish) ride. That thing doesn't have a center stand (if it did, ya couldn't lift the machine onto anyhow). Until he made it home again, he hadda lean it against a tree or post. He called them "The Mast of Shame!" (boat enthusiast).
