FZRdude, this pic was when I got the bike home. Since then I have done alot of work on it including the Chain and Sprocket. I have it a the shop right now cause the noise I talked about looks like a the connecting rod or something near it is bad. So i dont know if I want to throw in the towel and part out the bike or not now. What you guyz think? <p></p><i></i>

No worries, I posted the only pic I have of my bike, and it too has changed in appearence. But I have yet to get me hands on a digital camera. Soon, very soon.<br><br> <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img69.photobucket.com/albums/v20 ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> Has anyone seen my keys?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Well...I wouldn't give up yet. Let us know what you find out when you get her back from the shop.<br><br>BUT...if you do decide to part it out I got dibs on the front fender!!! I can't find one anywhere...<br><br><br>Hey, Tim...saw Nikon has a pretty nice one out that's under or around $150. At least the things are coming down in price. <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"I have come here to chew bubble-gum and kick ass...<br>and I'm all out of bubble-gum."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://members.optusnet.com.au/lanemeye ... karate.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></p><i></i>

I'm currently bidding on a Toshiba on eBay. Will know if I won later tonight. If I do win, expect to see some pics of my bike tomorrow. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img69.photobucket.com/albums/v20 ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> Has anyone seen my keys?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p072.ezboard.com/bexupbrotherhoo ...

Jeez Tim, You should have said something when we went for a ride out to Highbridge cause I keep a digicam in the tankbag just about all the time<br>Jim <p></p><i></i>

Depending on what you want to spend, I recommend the Olympus line of digi cams. Probably the best optics out there without getting into a brawl with Nikon. And I'm talking at the $100-$200 price point here. I use the Olympus D100 and have been very pleased. <p></p><i></i>

[FZRDude]

Won it, $65 + shipping. Toshiba 3320. 3.2 megapixel and up to 128 mem card. I'm happy, more happy when it comes in the mail.<br><br> <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img69.photobucket.com/albums/v20 ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> Has anyone seen my keys?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

If it looks like the crank you may want to think about putting in a Thunder race crank. It is 2 pound lighter. Clutch baskets going bad often ding up the sprocket on the crank. Sometimes this can be fixed. <p></p><i></i>

[coolguy266]

the shop cleaned out the broken parts and it sound right again. I bought clutch baskets on ebay and put new plates also. So what can I do to prevent this from happening again? <p></p><i></i>
