Forget about the speedo cable as the 1500 does not have one,

I have the 800 and when I take out the screw, I then slide it forward, as there is a tab that fits in a slot in the front, raise it up slowly and disconnect the speedo cable, not sure about the 1500 but the 800 has 2 plugs that you disconnect under the speedo housing that you are lifting up, Love the seat

pp the bezel off and make sure the plugs are all tight going into the back of the speedo head and the 3 wire plug that runs the fuel gauge. The main plug goes into the instrument and the two other plugs are for the fuel pump (2 wires) and the fuel gauge/push me soon light

E = enough......

oh ok but the bike looks really good and the seat sure is a one off. There is enough people going to jump on this to help you and get that issue fixed.

Went around the hood a few times, only up to 3rd gear.  Seat looks original but recovered, not leather.

When I picked my bike up it was only 175 miles away, and due to strikes on British rail and waiting for the next train it took me 11 hours to get to Birmingham uk , on the way home it only took 2 1/2  to get home, left at 6am got home at 8.30pm, still the ride home was nice.

Of course..when I was 10 yo I cut the forks off another bike and bolted them and extended the forks on my bike and made it into a chopper...

I have to admit, we did the same thing as kids.

Pilgrim you did all that on your own....

Of course..when I was 10 yo I cut the forks off another bike and bolted them and extended the forks on my bike and made it into a chopper...started wrenchin' early.

I can't get my bike into my living room though so I have to work in the basement.

    I really think we can all relate to the day we picked up or bike, and remember it pretty vividly. Even those that bought them on the issue date.
I drove 8 hours round trip to pick up mine and on the ride home kept looking in to the bed of the truck to check it out....lol....checked the tie downs every time we stopped.......lol.......

I drove about 500 miles to pick mine up.  After I got it home, I sat in the garage and stared at it for two days without sleeping.   :o    My wives implored me to come back in the house.

I never got so whipped up about a purchase as I did for my Drifter.    :)
