So I couldn't take driving 70 miles a day in SoCal traffic. Bought a used Honda XR650L yesterday for while the Uly is down with a broken throttle shaft. Its NOT a touring bike (you knew that) but will be fun for trailing once the real motorcycle is fixed. Which leads me to ask-------- Any progress on the effort to build a better shaft? Inquiring minds want to know! |

I need to pick up over this week one, I'll see how good it was done, and how much will the bill be. |

Gents, keep watching eBay - the TB I was trying to alert Paul about went for very little money. |

I was the one who bought the TB, I also bought before a new one but this one will be handy as i have a few uly friends over here in spain that could come up with the same issue. |

Well I'm afraid things are no further than they were. My cousin went on vacation which I assumed was a week but I've been calling him this week and he's not answering so I assume he took two weeks. The problem is I'm leaving tomorrow for two weeks also. I will try to contact him while I'm gone and if I ever have internet access I'll let everybody know if there is any news. Sorry for the delay but it's out of my control at this point. |
