See the other thread about R65LS decals - Justin was nuking the spammers and it appears something got cross ways and she was caught in the crossfire.  hopefully she will reconnect and re-register.

There must have been a glitch in the user database.  Hopefully she will re-register...

I'm back.

This is the 1st I've been wacked in a spammer removal streak.  ;D
Not mad, I think its a bit funny. I've been keeping my head down in this killer heat.  106 +, 110 ~4 days, 113 tomorrow, past 30 days 104-108.

Welcome back!
Hopefully no more computer shenanigans will unintentionally cause you more grief!

Stay cool, stay hydrated.  some of us who were at the BMWMOA national rally, which I think "only" got to about 104 or thereabouts, were as hot as we ever wanted to be with the humidity levels quite high.   I know that I've been out in the deserts of the southwest at 116-120F, but with their "dry heat", it doesn't feel so miserable - just turns your skin into leather in about an hour! :D

Sorry 'bout that, dunno what happened...  I'll blame it on the heat - yeah, that's the ticket!!

Hi APGirl,

Pretty LS.  Some had silver wheels.  Seafoam will help cleanout the carbs but has a tendancy to remove the paint from the inside of the tank as well.  Replace the fuel hoses if they have any cracks in the ends.  Put in a FF2314 fuel fulter from Autozone just below the petcock.  

That's all for now.  Just ride the thing and then come back and tell us how it went.  Ask your questions.  The only dumb question is the one not asked!

Lots of friends here with lots of experience.

Welcome to the madness.   8-)

"'74ish Bultaco Model 156 Sherpa T"  Cool do you ride trials?  I also have a 1972 Montesa Cota 247.  I do AHRMA trials when I can.  Great fun that.
