Just for everyones info, if your old machine has brake linings which are
riveted onto the backing plates, don't buy that high priced liners from
your local, (or nonlocal) supplier.  There is this outfit in Cinn., Ohio
by the name of industrial brake and supply, @ 1-800-543-1906...
but, anyway they will sell you lining materal (for old pre 70 Beemers it's
gotta be 5/32 thick) by the foot CHEEP!... and with a little careful drilling
and countersinking, you can make your machine stop twice as better.. (since
this stuff has a higher friction co-efficient than the old linings ever thought
about.. and instead of using the old time copper rivets, use 1/8" aluminum 
pop rivets  .. Quick and dirty and it works!! great!!!

Nah, much more practical is to bring your 'bike indoors. In fact on really

If you had ever been there, you couldn't ask this!  There is everything from
mountains to desolate plains, with scenery that's out of this world.

Phoenix isn't my favorite place, because it's where all the northern people
have collected, and they are just trying to make a huge northern city out
of it.   And, prices are too high in Phoenix/Scottsdale on accounta this.

However, get outsied of Phoenix, in any direction - and you'll have everything
you want ... well, except for maybe grass and some of that other green stuff
the northerners are so find of.

When I retire in a few years, southern Arizona is my vote for a place to
at least spent the winter months ... I'll be in Anchorage Alaska the other
half of the year!  Now all I need to set up is a UNIX system with news that
will fit into the left saddlebag of the bike  :-)

I don't know anything about NY Kawasaki (where are they,
anyway?). S.I. Kawi. doesn't have a great reputation, and
I'm personally not happy with their service or attitude.
Very hard sell, and promise-you-everything-but-deliver-less

work done there, most of which had to be re-done.

Some places are like that.  When I went shopping for my FJ the very best
deal one 'droid could cut was list price plus $150 setup.  Period.

Go somewhere else.  There are dealers who will work with you.

Not true.  Aloha BMW (a couple miles west of Portland) is carrying a new
1993 PD.  Folks you will not believe this, but BMW has come up with a new
color scheme that is absolutely ugly IMHO.  The new paint jobs make my now
classic '92 looks like a dream.  The PD comes in 3 colors lavender, red and
the beautiful green.  It is not so much the color, but the way they did it.
All new PD's will have a snow white front end.  The color comes in about
half way into the tank (from the front).  It sorta blends in like a lumpy
air gun job.  The truly bizarre feature is the decal of gravel that circles
the tank.  Honest, would I kid you?  Someone should ask BMW WHY?!?!

Mechanically, the bikes are identical to the '92.

Don't waste your money on a ST1100, get the Beemer instead.  Just get ready
for riding an ugly bike. ;-)

Ride Free,

Bill

I'm not DoD either; I have 100,000++ miles of riding experience,

time on other machines, usually borrowed).

If there is reincarnation, the previous claims may be underestimates

As a user of motorcycles, I have only one small (hard to observe due

I'm not much of a wine drinker.  What I've been using for a couple of
years is a soft-sided cooler made by coleman.  It'll hold two six packs
of beer, a bag of ice and a water canteen quite nicely.  This neatly 
fits into one of the beemer's hard bags with room to spare.  It keeps
ice all day long even when it's really hot outside.  It has a zipper
closure,  but doesn't leak as long as you keep it upright.  Best of 
all, it cost < $20.  I think I got mine at K-Mart, but I've seen 
them at other discount stores as well.   Don't leave home without
it!

All;

	Good postings for this topic!! Sound premises followed up by clearly stated
evidence which inevitabley leads to irreputable conclusions. MOST ACCIDENTS DO HAPPEN
CLOSE TO (IE. WITHIN 5 MILES OF) YOUR OWN HOME.

	I'll be honest with you; this scares the shit out of me. I do if fact ride my
motorcycle a lot around my house. I am not taking this lightly at all. I am putting
my house on the market and moving more than 5 miles away from its present location.
I suggest you all do the same. Remember, there is no better accident prevention than
precaution. By the way, the house is located in Salem Ma. near the water if anyone
is interested.

Thank-you Kindly;

1) Set the cables so that they're pulling the slides equally.  I did it by pulling full throttle and lining the slides up with the top of the throats by 
feel.  Then, use a carb sync tool on the vacuum leads to the petcock to
make sure that the carbs are even when you get a decent idle.  Don't forget
to set the oil pump cable, too.  Get the Kawa manual.  It's pretty good.

Can anyone tell me something/point to sources about modifying a 1979 CBX
suspension via GSXR.

Specifically I'm interested in further information about connecting GSXR
front and rear suspension to CBX (stem modification?)


thanks
