are the crashbar for a drifter or classic

I'm a master certified auto mechanic, and from experience if it's an electronic circuit very precise soldering, if it's just power supply then use weather tight crimps. Heat shrink with an epoxy sealant keeps vibration from being an issue and is super secure

Cool looking at a really good deal on  an extended Jose so as I can run my apes

At the master cylinder and the caliper on the front brake

Did anybody know if the front banjo bolt is 10mm?

It says to ask for permission to locked forum folders here? Would like access if possible

Anybody have a rear spring that is possibly still "somewhat" firm? While doing more tinkering with the 800 I recently acwuired, the stock shock is still kinda firm, but the rear spring is so soft it almost bottoms out with juts me on it.  We en me and the old lady get on its fully compressed and is already on pre load 7

Like I said I am not trying to beg or look for sympathy, but just want to put a headstone at my father's grave,  and more so yet, my mother is depressed, and gets worse everyday the isn't one there.  If this isn't allowed or is even frowned upon, please message me and delete the thread. I just figured a group of like minded people if not able to help directly might be able to share this and help in any way possible. Thank you.

I originally posted this in my intro thread, after thinking about it I think I should put it here...
I have a big favor to ask anyone on the board, and completely understand if it is not allowed. My father passed away in February and the original reason for getting this bike was planned on being for him so when I got on one again we could ride together, so the deal with my friend had been in motion since november, and was going to be a surprise.  It got put on hold and just can't up between my friend and me, but I regress. My wife suggested I put the link to the go fund me campaign for my father's headstone, as his life insurance didn't even cover enough for his grave.  Me and my mother were able to cover the grave, insurance covered the service but now he lays in an unmarked grave. Is it okay to post the link?  If not I understand.

Me and a friend of mine use something called K 100. It has done wonders for the carb on my 800, and it actually made the carb of his v star 250 his wife rides look new inside. I'll try to find a link to it, but for now here's a pic

Yup it is a 2000. Iirc it's 11/99 build date

How are these?

Already getting all the questions, me and him used to ride together when I had my intruder. We always got tons of questions on both bikes.

Just acquired a 800 drifter from a friend, didn't have any other transportation. He needed some work done, I needed a bike.   Well long story short he bought a soft tail slim this year, and the drifter was parked so it benefits us both. My father passed away in February and I haven't had a bike since last year when mine blew a rod. This has been an awesome relaxation device and I love the way it rides. Btw my names Brian.
