You get to sit in Steve's lap on the flight out here and then open his beer.
![]() Honestly, thanks for the help in pointing me in the right direction. Normally a one-owner bike is a good bet, and in all reality this one isn't bad. Unfortunately the widow who sold me the bike has an idiot for a boyfriend who took it out and tried to ride it like a CR125 (without her knowledge). He screwed a few things up after she had it prepped for sale and did not tell her about it. I've been finding them as I go along. Should our paths ever cross, I'll buy both you guys a beer. ![]() -Joe

![]() I gave up adult beverages some time ago but I'd certainly take a coffee or Dr Pepper. And Joe, thank you for your service.

Pull out your set of drill bits and see which one fits. Cut the shank off and drive it home.

Well, I had a better idea.
Tapped the hole out to 3/16 (5/32 bit was a slip fit) and put in a loctited set screw. Ran it in until the decompressor shaft started to drag, then backed off a touch. Better idea than a smooth pin with nothing to mechanically retain it, IMO.
