I sent an  email and offered less...
If I get an email like that when I'm selling something, I think "all hat and no cattle" then delete it.

Me too but u never know... Plus, half the ads on CL are bullsh*t anyway. Too many times I have emailed or texted to get the usual "send me money  via payapal..."  or some other crap...

Look, todd, what's really important here is that you get back out to the shop, work on that K, and keep updating this thread so that some of us have some entertainment while it's snowing. :popcorm

BTW I found a beautiful 86 k75 on CL for $1500. One owner (20k) miles. Son has it and wants it gone...

Why don't these deals show up near me?  $1500 for an S model with 20k.  A brick that still needs breaking in.
I sent an  email and offered less...

You got it for less than $1500?!!!  Damn!!!

Well sorry for the disappointment today. I went to get my speedo from Rick. And it took a good portion of my day. Plus I spent time with the family. Tomorrow I fly out for a few days for robot training. So no brick work... I'll be back Friday. I want yo try and get some stuff done. I am gonna post in vendors about my awesome experience with Rick. Thanks!!!!

Well, I, for one, could never have figured out you were a robot from the way you write. Your software is excellent!

It's easier with robots than women. You simply unplug robots.

Headed home tonight. Hope to get the bike running! Here is a pic of the robot I was learning about:

Actually, that is for welding and I was learning about painting.
I'll post bike update tomorrow!
Thanks!

Todd the pipes on your tank are a vent and an overflow, on my bike they sit over a small plastic catch reservoir. If you note the colour of the wires you can work it out on a wiring diagram.

Shoot! You went and ruint it, Martin. 😪 I was going to add plans to connect up those fittings to a bidet in my next post here.

If you don't have one of those prissy little cups like Martin has, todd, you can put hoses on those fittings and route them right down the frame until they dump behind and below the right footpeg plate.

You got your fuel pump connected, todd?

If you partially follow Laitchs suggestion you can route the hoses to your back tyre. You get really wild burnouts. Sorry Laitch I didn't Know you were into bidets.
Apologies Martin.
