Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

Well, I've been feeling like a change, so this weekend I felt it was time to switch the tops again. So I took the UK top off, rear roll bars and seats out and put the Japanese top and third brake light back on:<br/><img alt="Image" src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5147/5587456270_466cb91863_z.jpg ...

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

Well, I've been having some rough idle issues, on occasion missing and hesitating a little under throttle. I've already been through new cap/rotor/wires and plugs (twice on plugs and wires). It made thinks better, but slowly degrades. So I've been wondering about my coil, and wasn't sure what ...

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

Well, I'm back after a short vacation. Ended up going out on a trip right before leaving, went out on a really good trail. Looking forward to going again. Also, since I'm back I finally changed my rear spring bushings and the shackle.<br/><br/>First, here's a few pics from the outing before the ...

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

Yeah, you're right, good thing I said maybe. Since lately my projects on the toys have been overlapping.

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

Yeah, I've been considering options for making QD's for the sway bar. I'm still torn on the removable spacer, not sure how much slack/play there would be without the bushings pre-loaded. Since I tend to corner pretty hard on the road... what can I say, I love corners. I've toyed with some sort of ...

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)

So I got around to fixing the broken sway bar link. I was going to replace it with a stock type, but it's a PITA on the trail to undo. So I went with an increased diameter bolt (hoping not to break it again) with a spacer, like the aftermarket ones. So this is what the old and new links look like ...

Re: AMU's Amigo (aka MU)
