    ORDER TIRES NOW!

    Another list I read said send them a fax after hours.

    BLACK paper, long enough for you to tape the ends together to make a continuous loop.

    Call daily.

    ANother idea is to fax the customer service manager or phone line. Nothing answers hello like a fax tone..........

    Use redial/polling option.

    just some things I read.......................

    I linked to this guys' site about doing a Yammi rect. Someone else did it too.

    Well I think I have the same problem. Riding yesterday down 144 in PA (doing the speed limit of course :wink: ) I looked down and my speedo and tach were not working. Shit.

    So I figured it was just a fuse and kept going. Not long afterwords my bike starts spitting and the dies. Fuck! In the middle of no were.

    We checked the fuses and all seemed ok. Unpluged all my extra shit and pushed started her and off we went.

    10 miles later died again. Two of my buddies went to Walmart picked me up a battery and I made it home.

    Have to check the volts tonight, but it sounds like the reg/rec is shot. If that is the case I think I will go with the R1 reg/rec. As Peter posted it is $100 cheaper then the Honda and better.

    Now has anybody did this swap with a brand new R1 part and not a used one with the wires?

    Send 'em to me and I'll post them for you.

    I took pictures of the rect/reg, but I have not aquired the knowledge yet to post pictures. This may be the case where the story is better than the picture though. The hole was small, about 1/8" in dia. with some evidence of liquid running out of the hole, like it was cryng.

    They drop ship from suppliers location (at least the sprockets I got)

    So be prepaired that your whole order may not show up at the same time.

    The specific ZVM 530 chain I wanted for 1100 cc's showed up as a 530VM chain rated for 1000 cc's with a sticker over the rated for 1000 cc's.

    Most people don't care about 100cc's I did.

    EXTENSIVE info here:

    http://www.quattro123.com/Chain.htm

    They did call to verify some info and were pleasureable to deal with on the phone.

    I may try again but, White Buffalo racing beat them on the replacement chain AND it INCLUDED the master link.

    Clutch Fluid Discoloration - Why?

    Did it look this bad? '97 w/29K

    Today, I pointed out this problem to a Honda dealer. He agreed that the color of the clutch fluid was abnormally dark and should be changed out. But he wants to talk with Honda first to see if they'll cover it under warranty.

    FYI, this is not my first experience with this problem. I also have an 02 XX overseas, and the same thing happened ... although the fluid didn't turn as dark as it has on my 03, nor in such a short amount of time!!!

    My question is WHY is this happening??? Clutch fluid should certainly remain clear-colored longer than 4 weeks or 2500 miles.

    Right model number...............but the chain only (Mostly) comes in 120 lenghts.....

    Cutting it down to 110 is what we do to get the cheapest prices.........

    Is this a good quality chain?

    That is the right chain for XX' date=' thought you need only 110 links.

    45 bucks is not bad.[/quote']

    Not sure if it can GEL like that on its own.

    I suspected Transmission fluid or that the seller was gonna make my $2,000 bike a little more expensive. - Suf Daddy

    DAMN :!:

    In all my years I've never seen fluid that bad :shock: Been working on cars and bikes a long time.

    You sure it was brake fluid?????????

    Glad you got in there and changed it out.

    Thanks for the info and chuckles "Gents."

    The bike is new to me in Aug of last year.

    I've only done less than 200 miles, mostly in 30 degree weather.

    Working out the kinks.

    The clutch worked fine with all that junk in there. I HAD to post a web site about the fixes and THOSE reservior photos. AMAZING.

    The biggest one was the one link bind in the chain.

    New sprocket, tires, chain and clutch bleed and this things RIGHTEOUS !

    Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dion dived in head first on this one but (acredit to both Dion and Honda) the junk in the res was a wild goose chase.

    nestreetriders.com: http://www.nestreetriders.com/forum/showth...&threadid=11079

    Slingblade: "You've bled the lines out, but there is an air bubble up top.

    You need to crack open (loosen) the Banjo bolt up top. Put a rag underneath it (DOT4 fluid will MESS UP paint...) and slowly squeeze the clutch and just before its fully closed, tighten the banjo bolt back. Then clean up the mess; and retorque to spec

    You'll want to rebleed real quick at the bottom.

    I fought the same thing, took me a few minutes to figure it out."

    YUP HE'S RIGHT ON. Two cracks TWELVE SECONDS later and I'm shifting and not spinning the tires at rest.. All's okay.

    Thanks for the help!

    I was trying not to get any of the junk into the piston area.

    I get 2-3" in the tube each crack of the bleeder screw consistantly now.

    Gonna keep trying.

    I just noticed in the photos a part is missing!

    Next (left) to the horseshoe ring in the

    Slave468Resv.JPG

    center of the photos is a "clip" its not in there right now.

    Slave472.JPG

    It seems to go over the pin hole next to where the piston draws in fluid.

    This clip an issue?

    Q: Frozen slave piston?

    In all seriousness dude, If this is what you found when you popped the cap you may want to consider a complete teardown to be safe. I hope the brakes didn't look like this.

    Some HOW to info and Permission needed

    I'm guessing rectifier right?

    The guy got one from a Yammi I think R1:

    "This is the comparison between the stock Honda-issue r/r on the left and the R1 unit on the right. Notice the complete lack of cooling fins (this generates huge amounts of heat - it produces somewhere around 40amps on the output!)." FROM:

    http://www.vlc.com.au/~justin/about/bikes/...eg_replace.html

    Thanks for the info Suf Daddy! You've gone and scarred the crap out of me about that R/R stuff. Now I've got to go check mine.

    If I decide that mine needs to be changed, do you know what the technical specs are for an R/R in a '99 Bird? I'd love to find a good replacement (not Honda of course) that is about the same size so I won't have to move any other components around (I'm anal that way).
