Re: Vmd 2013
The parts I bought off of MadMan was not on the bike. The parts I was interested in was already removed. That is why I did not buy it.

Re: Vmd 2013
I have a set of stock ZL 1 shocks. If I put them on I would not be able to touch flat footed.

Re: Vmd 2013
What do you mean not turn. Do you mean turn over by hitting the starter or using a ratchet on the crankshaft. Also the scratching that you are taking about is it about the last pic on the edge of the clutch basket housing cover were the clutch springs are located. That may be machining marks, but I'm not sure. I have never had my clutch cover off. Maybe you should start a new thread about you problem so more members can help you.

Re: Vmd 2013
Upload it to Youtube RJ, or somewhere else online that can host big files like that. YouTube is probably your best bet!

Re: Vmd 2013
So I guess no one else took pics at this years VMD. I seen Putt & the blond lady shooting pics. Sorry but I do not remember her name but I think she said she was from Lithuania. Lithuania is in Europe. It is the largest of the Baltic States. It is located on the Southern shore of the Baltic Sea. Just East of Denmark & Sweden. How come you all have not shared them with us.

Re: Vmd 2013
I want to share my 25 min. video with you all. I can make a copy of it for anyone who is interested. I figure @ $5 would cover the price of the CD & shipping. I would post it up if I new how. I kown nothing about U Tube or how to go about doing it.

Re: Vmd 2013
RJ,
That was Shoji's wife, she is actually from Latvia. I am hoping to see the pictures she was taking as well. We talked a little bit about photography and I am sure she took some very nice pictures!! Did anybody else have some to share??
