Ebay score... "Yamaha Fork Brace Vintage AHRMA MotoX"
It's going to require a little "tweaking" to fit the DS7. But hey, for $25 shipped, I'll suffer through it. Besides, if it bolted right on, where would the fun be in that? ;D ;D
 
Love your new avatar RedBird. Also nice score on the brace.
Here's my latest psuedo purchase: A 1978 Gl1000 that I drove four hours round trip to get. It was free. The p.o. hacked the rear subframe off and then decided he didn't want it anymore. It's mostly complete. Missing the false tank sides. The odometer reads 22,XXX and the motor is supposed to be free. Now I just need to some help to get this heavy bastard off of the truck and into my garage!

And here's a few parts keeping the big Honda's spot warm until she can be unloaded.

I'll start a build thread on my free goldwing as soon as I actually get started on her.
 
Been waiting a while, but it finally showed up. Courtesy of my friend that works for Bell Helmets.

Whoa - that is one hell of a helmet.

Tell him to sign up on DTT so we can all be friends with him! :D
 
Just picked this up. In super shape. Only $36 with shipping. And the guy sent it out less than 12 hrs after I won the auction.

After 22 years on my trust HO Turbo I splurged on a new ski this summer. Will have it this Friday for 1 week of skiing before I have to return to the big smoke.

She's minty fresh.. All original except for the seat and muffler. It's got a rattle can paint job that's sort of like a butter face... Good from far but far from good! I have limited plans for it (at least for this season) ditch the windscreen, new levers, mirrors, and clubmans.
 
$300 today on Craigslist. The guy had it all but sold last w/e for $1500 but it blew a main fuse on the test ride and the potential buyer had to push it back 3 blocks. The guy dicked around for a bit win the wiring, decided he didn't know what the hell he was doing and gave up. I just happened to be the first one to see the ad and call. ;D

check the regulator/rectifier connector on the harness... I bet you the wires are all melted..
 
Will do, thanks. I kinda figured that's where I'd need to start. Anyone know where to get a nice color wiring diagram for it while I track down a manual?
