Igofar Reviews

As igofar walked me through the brake system, it appeared that the SMC was the culprit. In the end, I punted on doing it myself, mainly because bleeding the brakes at the end seems like it requires some finesse. The local shop did it and it seems like the brake drag is gone. It stops fine and rolls forward and backward easily at traffic signals. I'm a happy camper.

Great news, glad you got your brake issues sorted out :hat1:
Now, get back out there and finish your preload adjuster :rofl1:
Let me know if you need anything.

Big thanks to member "Igofar" Larry, for his help. I sent a pm through this site, we sorted my bikes problem on the phone.
A great guy who is open to helping members with their bikes. He is best w/ the 1300's. Cheers.

Now, Folks, all 15,000 of you; we need to buy this man a "GoPro", (or Sony Action Camera); I know I would chip in. ha ha

Larry has declined your generous offer, however should you want to go ahead count me in!
 
For those of you who've bennifited from his phone consoles, he could really use a borescope...
 
I was getting the dreaded coolant smell from my 2004 with no drips. I saw Igofar responding to others on that topic and send him a PM.
He has been very generous with his time and valuable consulting. From his suggestions I've replaced the t-stat, t-stat o-ring, water pump cover o-ring, and tightened the clamps. He checked with me a few times to see how my progress was going.

I appreciate people like Larry who are willing to share their time, knowledge, and experience with others that are trying to learn.

Thanks again Larry for the guidance and help.

Larry gives the most valuable item any of us has, his time... Kudos.
 
Vinny was kind enough to make arrangements to fly me out to the east coast for a little rest and relaxation at Vinny's Place on October 6th.
I am on the mend, but still have orders from the wife and doctor not to over do too much, however, If they think I'm just gonna sit around and each peaches and drink sweet tea :rofl1:
I am beyond excited about seeing not only Tom again, but meeting his family and to see Vinny's Place in person (he may never get me out of his garage).
So, if you've ever wanted to meet the St-Whisperer in person, poke me with a stick, or watch me take the ST1300 Hostage that he has lined up, please stop by and say hi.
I look forward to meeting ya'll.
If you think you'll be able to stop by and have any specific service related needs, please send me an email or PM and I'll tell you what I think you'll need to bring to have on hand.
I will NOT be able to do larger jobs such as Valve inspections, or electrical stuff, and I don't think Tom will let me do any of my 16 hour straight OCD inspections due to circumstances beyond my control.
I have a sneaky feeling there will probably be a dunk tank with a bench that I'll be sitting on, and folks will be throwing bean bags at the bulls eye to dunk me :rolleyes:
Counting the days...
 
Larry....I don't really need any work done, but will endeavor to get out to Dahlonega to meet you, and see Tom again. Looking forward to it!
 
It is going to be great to see Larry again, BUT we are not going to overwhelm him with work requests, hence the emphasis on "MINI". This is mainly a R & R for Larry because he unselfishly helps so many folks in the OCD garage. I also know he can't keep his hands off of motorcycles... :please1:so I'm allowing him some guilty pleasure while here:rofl1:. We plan on doing some riding in the area :bk13:and visit the Barber Motorcycle museum early the following week. :) Come out and join us for any or part of the activities on Oct. 6th.... I'll be watching this thread to figure out how many pies to have on hand...:eat2:
