Re: @PITAPan

You know, if you want to add me to your ignore list I'm OK with that. I don't see any likelyhood of anything productive coming from a discourse with you. As I talked about in a post that you probably ignored, I view the forum as a discourse of ideas, such that the parties involved have the opportun...

Re: Worn down camshaft, how to proceed?

How little do you know. Supershaft/funholiday nearly brought this forum to its knees. It is not a popular name round here and might be a reason that we are a little suspicious of know all blowhards. I'd agreee. I read back a ways in the forum before I ever posted but I was looking for the presence ...

Re: Worn down camshaft, how to proceed?

AH, now I get it. He puts people who point out his mistakes on Ignore. No wonder he never corrects his errors. Very clever! If you are never corrected or even challenged, you must be a genius. You become a legend in your own mind. When I was married I could really have used that ignore feature. Not...

Re: Bosch Charging Light

What would most likely be the culprit if the charging bulb on dash does not go out until 2k rpms? Normally this should go out around 1500 rpms or so. When rpms are 3000-3500, battery is charging at 13.5v. 4K + it is low 14v. My R100RS did that. Two weeks later the rotor was kaput and the light woul...

Re: I Miss the Bullet Holes

Ken, any man that worries about which way the seat is, or even has it on his mind, has long been subdued. Just say, "yes dear". Are you funholiday in disguise? Must be nice to have such mastery of the fairer sex and toilet seats. Doesn't apply though, Ken was talking about a BBQ not the o...

Re: Bosch Charging Light

The bulb indicates the difference between charging voltage (at the diode board) and battery voltage. When charging rises above battery bulb goes out. The first sentence seems right, but sounds like the second sentence contradicts the first. My understanding is that the bulb goes out, ie no current ...

Re: Bosch Charging Light

Hey guys - quick question: (1971 75/5) What would most likely be the culprit if the charging bulb on dash does not go out until 2k rpms? Normally this should go out around 1500 rpms or so. When rpms are 3000-3500, battery is charging at 13.5v. 4K + it is low 14v. Running on idle for a few minutes (...

Re: I Miss the Bullet Holes

You know, ME109, I'm thinking that some bullet holes in the BBQ would be a nice touch. They would add a certain je ne se pas quoi to your RS Adventure Bike. And the women, I mean Shielas, would be greatly impressed with both you and your bike. Bullet holes in the portable potty might be more useful...
