Just got to thinking here...

Since that Bastage Rob has illegal possession of my girl dolly, I've got an extra slot in the sheep shed.

They're nice girls Jim, and they will be sure to keep you warm and satisfied comfortable..

 
When we talkin about doing this?

I have shim kit(s) that I'd be happy to loan/provide.

(Tip): buy your coolant O-rings in advance ;)

If I can't make it I can probably get them to BikerGeek ahead of time.

However if Andy gets the altitude sickness again the garage floor will work fer him an ya won't have him for a roomie :lol:

Oh Andy? I'm still finding parts..
ME get altitude sickness?? Yer memory is a bit fuzzy there, feck-face.
Bill? Ray?... Joe? :lol: Lil help here.
I does believes there is a self-portrait photo in the fourth last pic in post #2 of this next link..... we really needed a photo about a half hour after that.... and of course he doesn't remember!!

Check with BikerGeek since I think he also has a shim kit.

As to Andy's denial of a previous encounter with Allitude Sickness I am not surprised that he has no recollection of the evening.

If you people don't behave this time I will bring my copy of the Mexico trip video and make you watch Don expose his hairy butt.

That will sober you up pronto!!

From BikerGeek's own keyboard...

I think I'd been drinking. I normally do this when I've had a few.

Now things got ugly.

I mean really ugly.

Yamafitter is correct - I have a shim kit currently in Bust's possession. Thanks for the offer, though. If you make the trek up, though, feel free to bring yours along just for fun.

 
I've still got a CCS-100 that has to go on, along with bar risers. Finally got the mount built, painted, and ready to go on. Cruise control has been sitting in a box for a year now. I just lack the tools, the space, or the knowledge on getting these things on. Plus, I'm mechanically ********. Be nice to have guys that actually know what they're doing show me how. And one of the bolts at the top of the fuel tank is stripped, so getting that fixed would be nice.

How can I get in on this?
I'll just throw a caveat out there that installing a CCS-100 is a bit time consuming, and there will be a minimum of 3 valve checks going on, so availability of knowledgeable wrenchers to help is another big factor. We can fix your bolt as Bill says, but buy a couple of new ones in advance. Also, if you read up totally on the CCS install, and do as much prep as you can ahead of time, e.g., waterproof and pre-install the switch (you'll need a bracket, perhaps the fancy one from Wynpro + the bolts to put it on), find out where you want to mount your servo (under the seat?), etc.... we may be able to find somebody to help. All we can do is try.

Also thinking we should have mdisher's shim kit to ensure we have adequate supply.... can always return it. I have the O-rings for BikerGeek and Yamafitter's bikes. Will bring CarbTune device.

 
Don't sweat the CC install. We'll have one or two good minds here to assist with their yaps.. :lol:

I'm certain I can get that done while the others screw **** up. :yahoo:

 
I'm sure I will show up. I need to do a TBS and replace the CCT.

Hey Bust, do you still have some of those floorboards made up for the passenger pegs? If you do I would like to score some.

 
Think I have 6 or 7 sets of them left Jason.. Bolts, nuts,and pad also.

Squirrels from anywhere are welcome, as this seems to be a gathering place for them.

However we don't need any like this ...

more like this..

Shameless self promotion here

:lol:

 
Is this a locals only thing, or can someone from the mid-atlantic region get in on this too?
This is an international event since some of us will need a passport to attend being that we (yamafitter, RaYzerman19, Huron52) are from the Great White North.

 
It would be a nice multi-day ride trip for me. I could use having my CCT replaced (just to be on the safe side) and my brake fluid flushed. I first need to see if I am going to be in Dallas on that weekend for some training or not, so put me down as "possible". I will know as the time gets closer.

 
Hey Busta, should be able to make it, plus it is my 46th birthday that day... Damn I'm getting old!

Is anyone going to have carb sticks to do the throttle body synch?

Pete

 
There should be a couple items here for that Pete.. I've got the slack tubes and Ray has the stix IIRC.

Birthday eh? You might better bring along the wife just in case. ;)

I'll do what I can to prepare. And I'll help out anywhere else I can to speed up the process on other bikes. Just give me specific instructions, or at the very least, I'll be the one to go get pizza and beer. In fact, I know I owe Ray a drink.

In addition to the bar risers and the CCS, does anyone have an SWR meter? I was kind of hoping I could get my CB antenna optimally tweaked.

 
This Just In!!!

We here at Bustanut Industry's have decided to add a little excitement to this event.

Door prizes! Win stuff! Free!!!! Priceless art, wall hangings, nude sheep posters!

Drop your name in the hat upon arrival and at some point during this festive occasion we'll pull a few names.
