SAVAGE420 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 4" angle grinder will get that bitch cut in seconds . Zing zing. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 All the above I've got a sprocket hub I couldn't get off an axle with home made puller and heating it dull red with a rose bud. Quote
Josh Z Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 None of them sound bad to me... as long as it is working on a shee I am enjoying it... Quote
Coupelx Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 anything involving bearing failure in the engine is pretty high on my list. Quote
2004LEBanshee Posted March 7, 2012 Author Report Posted March 7, 2012 4" angle grinder will get that bitch cut in seconds . Zing zing. That's what I ended up doing after a half hour beating it with a sledge. Quote
WINDYCITYJOHN400 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 That's all kids play compared to trying to fix a Trinity build. I'll take pulling bearings or freeing up stuck bolts over trying to make a $2500 aluminum doorstop into something that runs. But of the poll choices.....I'll pick the Swingarm bolt. (They don't stick if you grease the snot out of them before you put them in.....or coat them in Anti-sieze.) But when you buy a 20+ year old bike that has been neglected....somebody has to do the dirty work to bring it back to life. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 I think you have us all beat Windy. Might as well lock this thread. Quote
NetBSD Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 you need a longer ratchet if you bust knuckles doing spark plugs Quote
Dicklez Posted March 7, 2012 Report Posted March 7, 2012 I'd have to say 20 year old case studs. I have a pretty good method for removing them but once in a whle you get that cocksucker. Thank god for timeserts. Quote

sheerider11 Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 Electrical problems are the number one on my list. A CDI that is on its way out so is intermittent, a bad ground. I hate chasing stuff like that. Quote
troyzstang Posted March 8, 2012 Report Posted March 8, 2012 x2 on electrical issues. I suppose I feel this way simply because That's one of my weak areas. But I'm learning Troy Quote
