If your concerned about sludge you could just put in a bottle of motor flush,
some marvel mystery oil, or atf, run for a bit and change the oil. I also saw a
video of a guy who restores bikes who flushes them with a fish tank pump and
kerosene.

Tried out a Buell yesterday. I really liked it, but my wife thought her
eyeballs were going to rattle out of their sockets. So... no Buell for me.
Shame, that thing really liked to be on one wheel. :)
Most impressive of all to me was that when she hopped on the back, I
couldnt even tell she
Stiffer springs on the Buell?
Was it a one cylinder?

The Buell is a 1200cc twin. So yeah stiffer springs are there due to the
weight.
I had another thought - with a light bike, the weight of riderpassenger is
more in comparison to the weight of the bike. So that raises the CG, and
makes it more top-heavy than a heavier bike. Hmm...

My vote is with stiffer suspension and the +passenger weight not being as
big a fraction of total vehicle weight on the Buell versus the Nighthawk.
It's like with cars. Pack five 180# people (900 pounds total) in a Civic
and you get a big difference in handling. Put 50 passengers of the same
I agree with the suspension being weaker. If you stiffen it up, it will
ride like a Buell with one rider.

Hey Steve,
I was wondering if still were part of the NH lovers group. It does sounds
like you got some water in the carbs. By the way, I am moving to Boston
soon. I am waiting for some visa paperwork, and I will move as soon as that
is sorted out. I will let you know when that happens.
Javier.
Have you tried cleaning it up and replacing the bushings? I did that on my
84 before I sold it and it worked like a charm. It will start by just
showing it the key :-)
Javier.

Paul,
Sounds like alternator to me.
Can we get a readout of the voltages on the bike while turned off, and while
running at about 2000 RPMs?
Perhaps the wires from the alternator aren't hooked up correctly.

Nice! Can I get a snapshot of your brackets that you made? Where they bolt

Nice work on the Javelin. I have something of a soft spot in my heart for

how to remove it? Along with that one of the bolts
Can't get the cylinder head cover off usually means that some PO slathered
