Dave, would you believe the 750 started up later today after I got it home?Huh? wtf

Told you, buy a gremlin bell!  Evil

Wondering if you have some compromised wires in the main harness where it was caught in the steering stop. I'd peel back the tape and check all the wires out. Also wouldn't hurt to clean your grounds and the handlebar switches with some contact cleaner.

Man alive Doc, how cold was it out there today?  that snow line almost looks like it's at road level.
. . about +5 and there is snow along the hwy . . .
. . but I have a wind screen now . . . ha ha good for protecting the chest and torso

How many cc's is that Doc?...is that Tired with you?

Yeup . . . that is My Bother cuzzin's Bike . . . he has done a lot ov work to it that he keeps Thankin' me for . . . ha ha
It is all period correct.
He has put a foot clutch on it (I may have influenced that a little)
Frame mount shifter which was an option for Police bikes till maybe '78 ? ?
He just scored a Wa. DC police Knob for the shifter . . . it is very cool.
He is TOTALY going with the Police Bike look this year.
I said he needs a Billy club scabbard . . . a Non-functional red dome rotator . . . which our MOT friend say=s is legal if it don't work . . .
. . . to which I said he just needs a hidden switch . . . ha ha
also I think he needs a R.E.A.L. . S.L.O.W to start sireeeeen . . . one that goes on and on as it winds down.
Ehh well see.

Mine is the 1981 XV920 . . the only year in North America with the same engine but not a Virago.
in 1982 they switched to a shaft drive at which point it became a Virago
Euro and Auz it was a TR1 (981cc)
it was virtually the same . . . 'cept
it had nicer horns . . . Round Mirrors . . . and a mid seat. Passenger hold on strap . . .
. . . oh and wouldn't you know it . . . the euro and auz TR1 came with the upgraded starter that cam out in 1984 but only on the 1000 and not the 750 in America,
and followed through the rest ov the years



Its a cool looking bike,I thought it might be a 750..I have a soft spot for yamaha twins...good to see Tired is still out and about..My baby..LOL

Insured the KLR and took it for a shakedown cruise today, Running like a charm. Cool

Stopped at Sprokkets to get some treats to bring home


Went back home via Blind Bay, nice and quiet there with all of the Albertans still at home.


Wanted to have a quick round of golf at Pebble Beach... but I couldn't find the course!


Looking toward Chase over Little Shuswap Lake at Squilax.

Been there on the cold thing.

Any you guys ever have this see-saw conflict? Do I pull over and warm my hands on the muffler or do I suck it up and get somewhere warm where people can watch me cry as the blood works its way back into my fingers while I attempt to drink coffee....?
