Nope I have no idea they just looked like they came from a motorcycle so i figured if somebody knew it壇 be y誕ll lol

I washed with just the sprayer on the hose as of now bc I can稚 find the power washer and it痴 a little better I think. Still has a good bit of dirt so I値l probably have to try again when I get that simple green or something else to use for soap

I put wd 40 on everywhere I couldn稚 reach to dry off and have a fan going on it too

Have to leave for the rodeo in a little while so that痴 about all I can do for today unfortunately

Cudos to you sir for offering a piece of equipment she will need.
I have been watching this thread from the start and all the help she is getting from the expierenced guys is priceless. Keep up the good work fellas that what makes this forum tick.
Lizy, I admire the undertaking you are doing. I did this same senario with a bike that sat uncovered for 13 years, everything was there just well weathered or shot. You have a bike with family history and that is the most special thing. I cant wait to hear it run again.

Great job! It looks so much better, and you're going to enjoy working on it do much more now. Keep up the good work. Hope you rode well, too.

Thanks for the pic!
Shes pretty, what do You call her? Goldilocks?
Looks like She pays close attention to You.
I see You didn't snap a pic of a banner..to imply anything..and You knew Ya could.
Your smart we already know, now we know Your honest too. My offer stands.... Lift or cash when You win any Banner.
Now.
In case You go by Home Depot on Yer way home and forgot to measure the circle thing Ya need to fix the yellow wire,
its 1/4" and ask fer a "ring terminal" some folks call it that..Maybe get 2 just in case,sometimes they don't crimp right.
And, print out those specs if you can..(for the homemade lift) Take with you,they will cut the wood and drill the hole for Ya.
Find someone in lumber.. smile while asking for help
