  • Piece o' cake

    Went for a ride today to Riverside to pick up a check and when I got back I parked the bike and let the dogs out for a few minutes and went back in the garage the rear tire was flat!!! Lucky I got home as there was a drywall screw in it. Since I now had to take the tire off anyway I decided to do the final drive swap as I was gonna do it this weekend anyway. Things went so well I was finished in less than an hour so I put the spacers I got for the clutch springs in, another hour. 12 mm ID X 18 MM OD X 1 MM thick, and is available at McMaster Carr. I'll let you know how they work after I get the tire back on and do some test rides.

    out for a ride?????

    I wished it was nice enough here for a ride. Just itching to get back on the road. It's only 9 degrees here now I think it reached upper teens today. Little cold for riding. Glad to hear your final drive swap went well.

      Ride?

      Yeah, had a few days of 85 degrees here. Today only got up to 68, which was very nice behind the fairing.
