    Stupidest robbers ever, they didn't 'case the joint 1st'

    Two robbers walk into a cop bar... https://www.yahoo.com/news/m/7746fdd5-15d9-3d76-b27c-755030cf0420/ss_no-joke%3A-robbers-walk-into-a.html I guess we should be happy they're so-stupid, it keeps them off the street.

    1700 Master Cylinder Joint Broke

    Has anyone had any issues with the gen 2 master cylinder joint snapping where it attaches to the brake pedal? Mine had the bottom break off were the pin goes through 2000 miles. Seems to be a cheap casted part.

    Universal joint question

    Is it easy to remove the circlip and bearing/pin so as to separate the UJ ? I need to do this so I can put a spindle through to set up the fjr arm. From reading on here I see undoing the yoke securing nut is a hard job unless the yoke is separated. With half the UJ gone I'd have enough room.

    Exhaust joint needed...

    Getting my 05 stock exhaust ready for Ebay and noticed my left exhaust joint has a bolt broken off in it from the PO. I know I can have it drilled out and tapped but I figured I would check to see if anyone has one laying around so I don't have to bother the guys at work. There is a difference...

    Porous coolant joint

    Hi, On my old 85 max, the water joint seems to be porous. I can paint it, but after a couple of months, the paint gets blisters and falls off. Does this also happen with the newer joints? Also, there are after market parts like below, but all I can find are custom CNC pieces that are out of...

    Mystery part attached to Air Cleaner Joint

    It's a small black plastic cube looking device. It has what looks to me like a white dial built into it on the face and a very small dia tube (possibly 1/16" or a gnat's ass bigger) that punches through the Air Cleaner Joint. The other end of this item has another tube to which a small clear...
