Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Looks Nice Teq ! :thumbsup:

Tim, Hubby just looked at your pics, and asked, wth is a JAWA? lol! no he doesn't read here much anymore, but he did say it looks good~

Hubby has scrap iron ALMOST ready to,~~ roll around the yard. Soaking carbs now, has electrical run, just has to wire in the rear fender , has to adjust the clearance on rear fender for chain now that he actually has a new lengthened one on it, plus new sprockets. Seat was moved, shocks were moved, all after he painted it last year~
If he gets it out today, I'll put up a short vid or pics~

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

A Jawa is a small being indigenous to the desert regions of the planet Tatoine. They scour the landscape looking for discarded metal, vehicles, robots, etc.. to rebuild or customize for resale. You could say They are the planets hotrodders.

Lol.

Actually, its a bike from the Checz Republic. They've been making the bikes since the 20's and are pretty known for their flat track race bikes. I've learned they were very well built and dependable from what I've seen online. Once we sell the RF900R, I'm going to bring this one to the shop and get it back on the road.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

ok smart ass, :hmm: hubby and I both know this since I have the complete series~
:funny:

thanks for the explanation on the BIKE though :)

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Tequilla, It is a non kick Sporty, electric start only. Left side shift also. I am going to say that if you get any manual for a post 74 and pre 85 (evo) you will get what you need as far as technical. They changed the starter configuration later in the life of the iron head sporty, but the other crucial stuff will be similar. There were significant frame changes in about 1980. So if you are looking for more accuracy with the chassis, pre 80. But you have a custom frame, so that isn't necessary.

I had a 71, 73, and a 85 Sporty years ago. Good bikes. Just keep the oil changed in the ironheads!

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Heres some pics of the bike I have been working on for a guy, 98 harley softail.
I had to make brackets and mount the gas tank, oil tank, had to notch the frame for the oil fill, weld in and smooth where the frame horns were cut off, and I still have to mount the rear fender but I've been waiting for parts to install the wheel so I know where its positioned.

I blasted the oil and gas tanks and threw some etch prime on them so they wouldnt rust anymore, then I gotta do a little filler work on everything and I'm painting it Hotrod Flatz Copper Pearl with black/white pinstriping. Frame will be satin black.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

I appreciate and respect everybody's opinion when I posted here about thinking of buying it. Bottom line is I liked the bike too damn much to pass it up and 4K seemed like a decent price. Worse condition I think I could recover my investment in a short time if I was forced to sell it.

My buddy who is a harley guy but not an expert was mentioning some of the things you said and put it at '77 to newer. I need to start looking for a manual. :thumbsup:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Except for the fact that the engine is waaay prettier than mine, it looks just like my `83. The manual I use covers from `78 to `'84 (Iron Heads) and should work out for you.:smile: The earlier photos didn't do your new scoot justice.:dancing:

It was a scan of a printed picture so the quality wasn't great. Getting ready to head to head out to the Laughlin bike run on Wednesday :thumbsup: Driving my G/F's car cause I'm not ready for the ride just yet..............(were the support vehicle)

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Whats the exact name of the manual so I can start looking for one.......Thanks!

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

That's where I got the info from....... I can post up my engine serial number later when I get home. Their example is a total of 9 digits......... My engine serial number is 6 or 7 digits and has some letters....... :Idunno: I'll post it up later today.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

The manual is from Harley Davidson. It's Service Manual XL/XR Models 1000cc 4-Speed 1979 to 1985
HD part # 99484-85 You can probably order it at your local HD boutique. I found mine in a used book store.:grin: Photos, illustrations and info is top notch:thumbsup:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Speaking of wives....A while back my wife Sherrie mentioned over dinner that she'd seen a couple of "strange bikes up behind your shed by the woodsplitter."

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Well nuts. Anyway to continue...I reply "How strange do you mean?" Her eyes get that pantented wives don't-mess-with-me look and she says "Strange as in I've never seen them before."
I'd picked up a couple for free Yamahas for parts and such, and sort of slipped 'em in where I thought they'd be out of sight for a while. Thinking fast, I countered with, "tell me how many rose bushes you have in you garden right now." She has about 40 and she knew that I had her, this time. At least she din't bring up the Wankel Suzuki.

The rattling you hear is the rear fender, a bolt on the bracket fell out, he found it later, it was not going to go anywhere though but was annoying.

http://s9.photobucket.com/albums/a71...t=GEDC0059.flv
:driving:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Cool. Sounds like mebbe that rear fender needs some better support.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

no, he just didn't fully retighten a bolt when he was messing with tail lights the other day, it's called being impatient :rollingeyes:
camera makes it sound deeper, to me it sounds more like a drag bike now, hard to see it started as a honda 750 :grin:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Yesterday I yanked the carb and noticed the previous owner had put the fuel line on the vent tube. That's why it flodded when I turned on the fuel petcock. I refreshed the carb at work today, got some fuel line off an engine in the garage, gave it a few kicks and it started up.

There's a few exhaust leaks as well as an oil leak but it ran pretty good. I still need to adjust the carb a bit and take care of the leaks but I'm pretty happy with my latest investment.

Rebuilt the carb again on the Kawasaki. This time I cleaned the hell out of it with carb cleaner and put an inline filter on. I broke the overflow tube in the float bowl so hopefully my JB Weld job on it will work.:stupid: If not, I'll just have to yank it out a third time.:Idunno:



Oh, Jeff, the wife found out about the Kawasaki yesterday and said "NO MORE!!!":yelling:


At least she didn't say "Get rid of it.":wink:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Hubby fixed something in one of scrap iron's carbs like that, he used fuel tank putty~

no more huh? awwww, ya shoulda known that was coming :funny:

We'll have 1 less bike here soon. Shadow for the atv plus $500, which we found out is not a grizzly but a kodiak. Bike needs tires and brakes eventually, but atv needs brakes , clutch cooling fan, and a bunch of other little things now.
Scrap iron is now just waiting for tires~ besides, a seat cushion, repaint, maybe or I'll just stripe the hell out of it to hide the scratches it has gotten since last summer~ just tinkering.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Yeah, like that is going to stop you. You'll probably find a deal on 12 Vespas next week and have the coming off a trailer like clowns out of a clown car! :grin:

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

I thought I'd post a few pictures to explain why I don't have time to build a vrod right now.

First up is my '96 Super Glide. I bought this bike new in '96 and I still seem to find new ways to personalize it every year. It puts out just shy of 90 hp out of 80 C.I.D.
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...naSideShot.jpg

Next is my '04 Electra Glide Classic. Also bought new. When I started working on this bike I wanted it to have a 50's custom car feel to it. I just got done putting on spoked wheels with red powder coated rims.
http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f1...BaggerSled.jpg

And finally, my project bike. It's a '78 Yamaha XS650 bobber project. It's still got a ways to go but, I'm in no hurry to finish it.

If it doesn't seal it off as well as I hope, I'll give it a coat of Master Series. Should never have to worry about it again.

My kikker is for sale. Converted the 110 auto 4 speed to 125 4 speed with a hand clutch. Talked to a buggy owner last night that might want it... wonder if he'll trade?

Wait... then I'd have a buggy I need to park in the garage also.

It's an illness I tell ya!

Got another back fender to cut up ($15 on ebay) and still haven't found any 18" and 15" white wall tires so we might be painting these tires soon.

Trying to find some handlebar risers to bring them up a couple of inches unless some 12" ape hangers are less expensive. These bars are 7/8" and everything I have is for Harley's 1" bars.

First thing is pull the passenger pad and change the bars.

Then I'll think about chopping up the rear to make something like this.

Need to drill out the bland exhaust tonight. Sounds like a sewing machine with the stock pipes.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

I got the TLR200 registered and legal. I've been riding it to work. Should be much needed break in fuel costs for me.

Also I'm looking into another bike, believe it or not. Its a parts bike for my RF900R. It's cheap as hell and will give me what I need to put my bike on the road.

Is that a '94 Sporty? I remember the little 2.2 gal tank with 5 Speed logo. My Sportster is a '96, had to change the tank to 3.3 gallon when I lived in California for those rides from Sacto to Chico.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Actually, it an '86 Sporty....It's about to get a Fat Bob tank on it with the gauges on the dash so I can get them off the bars. I can't stand that!

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

I was considering something to put around town on. Not so much for the highways. I have considered powering my cruiser bicycle which is particularly heavily-built or getting a smaller displacement motorcycle. Those of you who know me, will know I am a very big guy (6'6", 400lb). I'd like to avoid looking like one of the fat twins on the scooters from the Guinness Book. Between lower displacement choppers, enduros, cafes or street legal dirtbikes, what do you guys advise?

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Get a cruiser....cafe racer would look like a toy on you. Putting an engine on your bike would be cool but you won't get anywhere fast. Keep an eye out for a Honda CB-750 or a Yamaha XS-650, They're easy to work on, make GREAT bobbers/choppers/barhoppers and can still be found pretty CHEAP!

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Check craigslist, there are tons of CB750's out there for cheap. Its what I would recommend for you as well. You can do so much to them answer there are a shitload of aftermarket parts for them.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

MatteBlack, I got the Yomama XV650 for three grand, only 6600 miles on it.

It's a hefty sized bike and doesn't have shiat-tons of power, but it will get down the highway. My little brother is an inch taller than you but half the weight. His legs were folded up a little but this bike can be modified to move the controls forward about four more inches.

Keep an eye on craigslist, there are lots of good bikes out there with low miles and a reasonable price.

If you can afford it, the Honda VTX 1300 is a GREAT bike, but you'll be spending at least four grand on one of those.

Suzuki boulevard is another stretched out bike that should fit you well and they're very affordable.

Don't think a Honda Shadow would work for you, they're a little smaller in the cockpit and you probably wouldn't enjoy riding as much being folded up like a paperclip.

I'm only a RCH over 6' and most of the small hondas are uncomfortable for me.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Turns out the YamaXV650 doesn't have enough power to get you OUT of trouble.

Mine got totaled Saturday night. Had it three days and some female texting while driving ran a red light and T Boned me. Bike's totaled and I'm lucky to be here right now.

If that bike had enough power I MIGHT have been able to get out of the way of that little green Honda CRV Missile.

I'm sticking to BIG bikes from now on.

I'd say you were lucky but if that was the case, you wouldn't have gotten hit.

I'm hoping to pick up a Suzuki RF600 on Saturday. A friend of mine and I ate going to swap my RF900R over to that frame. Should be a little more power then my Honda TLR200.

The cool thing about the RF900R is they used the same bottom end as they're 1100 engine. It's just a different head on it. Hmmm..... Register it as a 600 and have up to an 1100 stuffed into it. ;)

My wife worked in a truama unit, so we always wear helmets.

Ah, texting while driving, yet another reason for lifting the ban on Assault rifles in California. Glad you're okay and she didn't get your leg mixed up with the bike. I run really loud obnoxious sets of horns on my bikes, which helps when idiots on the phone on the freeway try to change lanes into you.

Bike's totaled. I have lots of pics but everything got damaged, the frame got whacked real good right at the swingarm pivot, the rear hub is cracked open, tanks dented and scratched, bars are wasted, foot pegs are ripped off, whole thing's a mess.

But the engine cranks!

I'd love to see and hear that 1100, I might be looking for one here pretty soon, and I've considered the 1300 VStar. I like the shaft drive though.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

No texting while driving has been slow coming here in Co. They at least have a start here in that It is illeagl for teens to talk or text while behind the wheel. Though the guy who rear ended me two years ago and screwed up my hands (I'm back to 60 % normal on left & 40% right) was over 50 years old. I think anyone who is in an accident texting while driving should be removed from their vehicle and executed on the spot to keep them out of the gene pool.....but then that's just me.

Re: Motorcycle Thread
 

Built a cafe' style out of a '83 GS 850 a couple years ago, not a true cafe, but fun anyway. I used the rear section from a tank for the seat tail and a moto cross bar. Link to michaeljohnstanish.blogspot.com and scroll all the way to the bottom.
