Sorry I just got home from work. Looks like someone beat me to the link. There ya go...lol

Just wondering, if any members are headed to Harrisburg this weekend for motorama 2013. Feb. 16th-17th. I might try to go Saturday.

This is my Casio G-Shock Riseman.......I love it!

i guess my plans are to finish up the little stuff. i need a fender, i need to hook up the brakes, paint the sidecar frame. the tub needs a little bodywork and paint. soon ill be starting on my leading link forks. then hopefully will be adjusting things, and then riding the wheels off of the thing.

Thanks kinda what I thought. Is the running gear pretty good on the 94's I really dont know much about them.

I found a 1994 fzr1000 rolling chassis. I was thinking of picking it up for the suspension for a future project. I comes with everything minus the engine/exhaust/harness. No title. The guy says the fork and wheels are straight. He's asking $150 bucks. It looks to be in decent shape. Any thoughts?

I took my mom and my son on rides today.

I love seeing all these sidecars projects popping up..... Its looking great!

Thanks guys....It was my first time driving a sidecar, and it was super fun! It felt surprisingly natural.

Thanks Bro.....Yeah the banging and shaking was from my tub not being bolted down tight enough. I have rubber spacers but the stupid bolts I bought had to long of a shank and not enough threads so the left about a 1/4" gap.....I just need to get some new bolts that have threads the entire length...

Well.......I drove a sidecar for the first time today!!! It was fun! I finally got everything welded up and bolted together. It was snowing but I went out and rode it around the house a few times.......I didn't even fall over! ;) Here is a video...

Back to the sidecar stuff. I spent a little time today, tinkering around with the brake setup for the car......nothing fancy, but I think it will work. Now I just need brake lines.

in some cases It is hard to drive gently if you have to pull out of your driveway onto the highway or a high speed road (my case) , in that case I feel a longer warm up is a good thing. There are a million different variables.

I thinking more about turbo and manifold temps. Starting a turbo engine and taking off quickly or shutting it off as soon as you come to a stop causes rapid changes in temps....this leads to cracked turbos and baked turbo bearings. I'n not talking about 15 minutes maybe a minute or so. I know a...

Yeah I agree....having 3 turbocharged vehicles, I am very big on warm ups and cool downs.

yeah i am kinda confused by where the oil came from.....maybe there is a crack in the head or an external head gasket leak. it looked like anywhere that didn't have a really good seal oil was pushed out. bit if it was something serious i don't know why it would stop leaking. i guess i should be...

Thanks for all the good info guys! It does make sense that this has happened now....my wife started a new job about two weeks ago that is about 4 miles from our house. The car doesn't really get a chance to warm up. The smoke was not coming out of the exhaust.....it was being created by oil...

Yeah that what i was worried about but I don't think it was enough water to and damage. I tore everything apart and got all the ice out.....it was more slush than ice. The valve seems fine the inter cooler should be fine it wasn't packed. I called two local mechanics one of them was a vw...

Have you test ridden either of these bikes? That usually make my decision for me.
