Cycle and Cycle World Reviews of C10 from 1986
« on: February 14, 2015, 07:32:18 PM »
Scanned and uploaded C10 reviews from 1986 into a couple of albums in the Media section. If you search on 'Review', they should be available.

If you still have fuel in the tank, you are not lost yet
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle

I remember the Cycle review of both the C10 and the Voyager, and the editors pretty much preferred the Voyager. If my memory serves me correctly, the C10 turned a 11.65 in the quarter mile. I'll have to look for that issue.

Cut, paste?
And if you poke around, you'll see some code to do this:

[smg id=681]

If curious it's: "[ smg id=681 ]" but remove the spaces and double quote marks.

Thanks. I still haven't been able to figure out how to copy and paste with my phone.     :banghead:

LMAO, for reasons you may not fully comprehend.


I'm closest house to a 'major' road in CO. In the mountains, remote, no cell service. Plenty of visitors that want to use my phone (911, car broke, etc.), I whip around and grab a 60's vintage Western Electric ROTARY DIAL phone for them to use. You wanna talk about deer in the headlight look? And the funny thing is, it still works for making calls.

You have no idea how many times I've wished to be back in the rotary phone era. My life was much simpler then.

Don't get me wrong, I like digital fuel injection and other technological advances I just wish they would have made my life LESS hectic instead of more hectic.

. . . 60's vintage Western Electric ROTARY DIAL phone . . .
My residence still has pulse dialling (only) and I have a couple of Northern Electric rotary dial phones hooked up. Still work fine.

Our ISP thinks that ADSL is incompatible with a pulse-dial line, but it's been working for a few years now.

As with the C10  Concours, appropriate technology.
