    Alright, I know this post will be lurked but it's for everyone that might encounter this problem since there's next to nothing over this. About a month ago my shifter was sticking in the down position. Of course you'd think it'd be the return spring and I've finally tracked one down though...

    Too long my bike's been sitting in my buddy's garage, and this year Reno's winter had no snow and too many good riding days to miss any more. I'm looking to replace the coolant hose that goes from the radiator to the engine because mine was probably new in 1984 and the ends were ripping up. I'm...
