i adjusted the apes:nod a few inches forward to get the wanted riding position. I think I missed the mark as i still have a little more fine tuning needed to get my arms just right.
then rode 16 miles to work, a bit cool but the air was very clean and fresh.
pulled my carb off today due to leaking fuel inlet on my Evo.....got the solid brass one and pressed it in today .... will throw carb back on tomorrow....
I pulled the rocker box covers and lower rocker boxes off and removed the pushrods and covers. Anybody know what size socket I need for the 12 point fasteners in the tappet blocks?
Dont worry Roy, I will do some riding for ya...going to run up and see the colors on the Talimena Dr. thurs...I will wave at Iron Mt. for ya when I go by....:nod
Unfortunately no riding today. The Air Force has a rule that we have to wear our dress uniform every Monday which means I have to wear regular uniform "dress" shoes which violates the base's rules about wearing footwear that covers the ankle! But I did wash my bike yesterday and will ride the rest of the week even though lows will be down to 28 and highs in the mid to upper 50s.
Didn't ride today. Did get a new front tire on w/ Dyna beads in, new wheel bearings in front wheel and cleaned and repacked the headset bearings.
Got most of it back together. Should finish it up tommorow.
Rolled out'a the creek bottoms on it at 5am on this nice, frosty morning. Grinned all the way to work, then remembered the election results. Grin gone.
Awesome ending to a tough week. Took the afternoon off and hit the road. Temps ranged from 60* down to about upper 40s when done.
Two lane road, 35 mph limit, with cars all around. The road gave way to an increase to 45 mph and traffic was lighter. By the time the limit was 55 mph I was alone, and I rode and rode. I was surprised that I didn't see any other bikes out. The air was crisp and clean. The scenery was spectacular. Damn, it was nice.
