Welcome to the Worldwide V8 Bikers Forum

Shane, i appreciate the info. i am unsure of where it is leaking exactly. so the lower screws into the upper? so i can turn the lower to screw it into the upper? left or right or what? Darryl The lower section of the fork tube threads into the upper. The lower and upper I am talking about are both ...

Darryl could it be just a loose lower fork tube? Several including me have had the lower tube unthread slightly then leak appearing to be a fork seal. As I remember it the first time I changed my fluid that happened on the left side. I ordered seals and when I went to replace them found the tube loo...

Darryl, it depends how far you want to go with the repair. The factory sells a kit that includes bushings and seals. The bushing in the tubes I found hard to drive out. The main thing that I bought special was a fixture to hold the fork tube while I was working on it. Just replacing seals and not th...

Wildman, don't you just feel sorry for many of the others at the rally who ended their rides Saturday evening, but a few of us got to enjoy another full days ride on Sunday (and Brian probably Monday). Of course though most of the others had portable garages available when ever storms threatened us....

Sorry about the cameramanship, I know it sucks, but just a reminder to those who were there. Come join us next year. http://s299.photobucket.com/albums/mm319/hblocker/La%20Crosse%20Video/ Some great footage of getting a big handful there Harold. Too bad we only ran the video cameras for a few minut...

Only an ultra high perfomance race machine could do that

As Ron already posted there was a night that Geezer had a little bit to drink!

I hope La Crosse doesn't turn into a Goldwing Promotional Event!

You do seem to know which reports are a joke and should be laughed at. Ron will likely need lots of burning rubber scent today.

Had a nice ride today.

I looked at my alternator and mount tonight, shouldn't be a problem with pulley depth as the cooling fins are in front of the bracket so the pulley will be plenty in front. Only concern I would have is if the V-belt is not constructed to have the tensioner rubbing on the backside of the belt and wou...

The bracket is made by Boss Hoss to the best of my knowledge. As for the bracket working with a V-belt, I am guessing it would. My questions would be if the spacing of the pulley on the alternator is out far enough to clear the bracket as I believe it is probably a little thicker. Also I am trying t...

I think the reason mine fell off was because as a new boss hoss owner at the time I was unaware of any problems with the bracket... I had a belt squeal so I tightened the belt... Soon it started again so I tightened it again... And again.. No doubt putting more strain on the bracket.. Possible the ...
