    Hi everyone. This might seem simple, but it has me stumped. I have a clymer, and have looked online. I cannot see to figure out how the '85 front fork air tube is to be removed. Trying to get the forks out, but the air tube that runs between the forks is stopping me. Does it just slide...

    Inner Tube Extenders - Here me out!

    I'm going to move to clipon handlebars but I want to mount them above my triple trees. Instead of raking out more cash for a new set of tubes I'm wondering if its worth it or safe enough to just extend them from the top of the tubes by a few inches.

    Throttle tube length

    Anyone know the throttle tube length for an 85 model? I did a search but couldn't actually find a definite length. Got a pair of grips I've been looking at and I don't want to do what I did last time and order some that are too short. Appreciate the help.

    Plugging air hole on 85 fork tube.

    I dont have a tig welder and not sure if I have the skill to fill the hole without the metal sticking out then needing grinding. Would a dab of JB weld be enough to seal off the air hole? Thanks

    Throttle tube

    Hi, I would like to know if there is a bike like an R1 or something that you can use the throttle tube from. I would like to get a new throttle tube, and am using cheap aftermarket grips, so it doesn't need to have the ridge for the chrome trim on it. Any idea's?
