You will be the first to know when I get back rolling on this bike Mr. Ribs

Just got my new shocks from mr Half-Calf, thanks boss!


I hope to be able to put these on the bike this weekend-ish, considering I am working 2 jobs now I tacked on the -ish so Ribs doesn't come along and expect these to be on the bike by a certain deadline

So after I put these on I will probably have to sit on the bike and make engine noises with my mouth til I get enough money to get that stinkin charging rotor, seriously considered belting on a car alternator to this thing, but would make right turns a real bitch!

Dude How come I don't see that ad except when I look at your post?

And FYI, you're a dick

I'm just bustin man, I had an opportunity to compare the new shock length to the old ones and they are definately shorter so I'm pretty stoked, might have them on tomorrow night. Would've had them on last night or tonight but had to hang out with the old lady since I only see her a couple hours a night...

Ok stab number 2 at this bike, I just re-newed my insurance and registration tonight, got the bike over to my grandfather's barn finally and gonna keep it there so I make sure I have to work on it. Working on getting those back shocks on, still gotta re-test my stator and reg/rec to make sure if they are any good then I will be ordering a new charging rotor, probably from these guys http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-1979-1983-CB750-SUPERSPORT-DOHC-CB-750-IGNITION-CHARGING-ROTOR-/140961522600?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item20d1f623a8&vxp=mtr

Been super busy with both jobs and lots of stereo builds lately, kinda been my side job lately, hoping to make it a more permanent job. Will upload some pics when I get a chance and will update and add a link to my stereo build threads if yall wanna check them out.

Haha... Look who popped back in again.... Going to go look at a donor motor for the bike tomorrow morning, guy says it ran and charged before he scrapped it, I guess he just needed a new set of carbs and couldn't find any quick so he just scrapped it. Knows where it's sitting so gonna go pick it up tomorrow, gonna bring the multimeter with us to test that rotor before I buy the thing. Been waiting on this lead to come through since last time I posted cause it's a guy I work with, but he's been busy running his business and working at Autozone part time, so couldn't push him. Wish me luck!

Got the motor, drove couple hours this morning to get it and bring it back, only to find out thing is full of water, even got water in the right side of the case where the rotor was.

Rotor read ~2 ohms slip ring to slip ring, and 5.49 ohms from both slip rings to any ground on the case, which I don't understand why both rings read the same exact resistance to a ground, but none the less there is supposed to be infinite resistance to ground, so basically this rotor is no good.

My grandfather told me not to rule it out til I try it, so we found a bolt that threads into the rotor and placed a nut behind the bolt and presto, free rotor removal tool, lol.

Anywho put it on my bike and it still doesn't charge, so it looks like I'm gonna have to go through the thing again and make sure everything else is still ok.

Grandpa says to try the stator from the junk motor and see if it works then, but the wires have been sliced due to the rough removal and transportation of this thing, so I would have to run new wires for the stator to even try it, and I feel like that rotor is no good and it's not even worth my time...

I'm pretty sure this bike hates me, and of course I was sure as shit this motor was my solution so I spent a crapload more on a new sub and some other equipment for my car, so now I'm broke again...

And to top it all off I backed into a trailer my grandfather was working on for some guy, trailer sits like a foot off the ground and backing up in a cobalt is a bitch cause the ass end sits up so high you can't see anything behind you unless it's like 5 foot off the ground...

Ha, seen it, feel like maybe you sent that to me once before?

Having a real shitty week period, I just had a friend of mine die yesterday in a house fire, I hope your god takes good care of him Shiny.

Plus you know that surgery I had man? Yeah, um, lets just say that pain in the ass is back and I am not happy....

Gonna just break down and buy a new charging rotor and hope it works!
