Ahhhh, Jeff! We were looking for Carlton on the black 1125. Nope, no one on a 12R showed up. Phil saw the message as we were looking for you at the show. Goody, I got a message saying... "Next time he'll come alone so he can haul ass" I told him that was good cause that's what we do! Matt... Yes, "Momma's happy" EVERYBODY'S happy! (right Dave?) lol |

Nilly, is the oil in the 1125 shared with the transmission? If so the oil will be burnt by the engine and dirty from the clutch. It will look dark but depending on how many miles you put on it between oil changes is the key. I change oil in both bikes every 1000 miles. Probably not necessary on the Buell, but the Husky only holds 2 quarts total. Not a lot of reserve and it breaks oil down quickly. Motul full esther syn. Expensive but worth it. If shifting starts to get notchy you need to change the oil. Phil no prob, we missed you however there is always the next ride. Dwight I gotta see that exhaust. |

yes, the crank case and gearbox share the same sump of 20/50. but it is the hydraulic side of the clutch that i am concerned about. i fear the diaphragm is getting chewed up by the corrosive hydraulic fluid and that is why it's dark and clouded. it's frustrating that the newest and most expensive vehicle i own is giving me the most trouble. |

Hey folks, if any of you are going to do the 9 gearing in a 12, be prepared to do a clutch upgrade. After 4000 miles the stock clutch is starting to slip from too much torque. Going to upgrade to a Barnett. dammit ! |

was HRHD the last to adjust your clutch? |

Nilly, yup. The last time that clutch was apart was when they put the 9 gearing in, however I don't think that is the problem. Clutches either work or they don't. If it wasn't done properly it would have shown up right away, not 4000 miles later. I think it is the clutch spring. It only slips when I power shift it in the upper rpm range. Not a lot but enough to notice. |

Thanks for the B-day wishes. Yes, Mike, I'm getting "old"...and tomorrow is anniversary number 12 for the wife and I. We are riding our motorcycles to Hoss's for dinner and then going to see a movie. If anyone wants to meet us out there, we will be there a little early. And yes, we will EACH be riding our own bike, btw. |

Thanks guys! I don't know what time we will be there...playing everything by ear...all things point to the neighbors, and how long they'll hang out with the midgets. Jimmy, wife wouldn't let me get the 1125, so I can't buy your Jardine. Why are you getting rid of it? |
