I picked up my bike yesterday. The thing looks tired, but I think with a little TLC it should be up and running in no time. What is the best place to get carb rebuild kits? I'm hoping that along with a battery the carb rebuild will have the thing running again. Anyone have any advice on changing from points to breakerless ignition?

Ok - so it was funny Coincidentally, one of my jobs as a graduate teaching assistant was in a research project with the goal of accelerating the learning curve of English language pronunciation for graduate students from Asian countries. Lead professor on that project was a stunningly beautiful Japanese woman named Rieko. Never did find out how successful the project was in the long run...

 

[Pinhy]

find out anything more about the lead professor??

Pinhy, :evil:
Don't you worry. No one can insult me, well I'd say almost no one, as I have a thick face.
Oh, Tampa! Blooming onion at the Outback Steak House was very good.
When we (me and an America guy) saw this first time we said "Wow! toooo big for two". In three minutes all gone (just like NY three minutes).

Next time when I fly to Tampa in summer time, I will try to avoid the flight arriving in the evening.

Aren't they all? (okay, most of them anyway... :mrgreen: )

Hi Hardware,

Let me correct please ... I'd say "some of them" .....

When I was in Tokyo two years ago, I was suprised by all the very beautiful women ... and I wondered where they came from, when I saw the somewhat "plump" schoolgirls in their short uniforms ...

Plump is right. I am wondering where they are from, too.

Change the title to Plump Japanese Schoolgirls, I bet we would have a record breaker.
