Glenn needs to upgrade his Internet connection. If he has DSL, needs to go to T1, T2, T3...

Sunday I got so frustrated in getting everything lined up, I did manage to get the MM cluster on but the angle was almost horizontal. It made them useless. I said screw it and started to put the 750 stuff back on. I couldn't go riding even if you didn't have to do the brakes. It made the gauges useless.

Then this morning, I had an idea. Everything is lined up but I have to use the stock gauges. I don't see how you can use the MM without modifying the 1100 bracket to move the fairing forward. I'm toying with the idea of putting the GL1000 gauges into the stock housing and use the odometer space for a VDO voltmeter. If I can't get it to work, and I feel bold, I will look for other gauges. In the meantime I will fix my 150MPH speedo from the parts bike and drop that in.

I do have a concern about the semi-exposed wiring. The 750 has all the connections inside the headlight housing. I have to change some of the butt connectors to Molex for better weather resistance.

I guess I should have PM this to you, rather than hijack this thread. But I miss the CB1100.net forum. There is a lot more info there than at any other forum. Glenn has to increase his Internet bandwidth. I will send you pictures when everything is done.

So whats in it for someone to have a website?? Do they make money on advertising?
What is it that makes a person with a life want to start a website.?
Then have to deal with that as well.
I have to say..I dont know the first thing about the internet.
Its like going to your friends house.
You know how to get there but if someone asked directions you`d be lost.
I really apritiate the fact that they are here but I could see someone saying "screw it" and just pulling the plug.
What is this all about??

Ben,

I couldn't work on the bike today... had to conduct business in Stonybrook, took all day. Will get pictures up tomorrow.

Anyone know why cb1100.net isn't up? Is it because of funding?

Glenn should be proud to have taken his interest and creating a service that many have come to depend on.

I know how Glenn feels. I too, after working with computers all day, the last thing I want to do is work on them. Glenn at least has a wife to help him. I'm a single father who has custody of two kids. So I know how it feels and try not to be consume by it all.

If Glenn is burnt out and wants to take a break, I can host the site on my web server.

And yes, you are right... we do spend too much time on bikes!!!

Ray,

How difficult do you think it will be have a sub-forum for DOHC 'F's under the Honda forum here?
