What did you do to your other motorcycle today ?

[Berteric.]

That's not suprising.
I don't watch many movies or much tv at all, but my friends and I watched all of his movies growing up.
When you kill all the bad guys...And ride wheelies doing it...come on...now you know why Chuck is the man...

Me neither… but there is one movie that will always stay on my mind, I was only 9 years old.
The movie called 'Stone'. It's a movie about a biker gang with only Z1s.
A short scene with an incredible wheelie... that's where my motorcycle addiction started. (The scene starts at 1:13:34)
I found the whole movie on the internet... I hope you can watch it. Enjoy.
.

But remember, it’s not a high class movie, it’s a 1974 movie with some incredible scenes for that time.

Well I rode mine today. No rain on the radar, it’s Friday so why not…….

I knew better

I did however test out my powder coater the other day. Turned the chrome headlight ring to black

It's always the way...

Only politicians and weather people can be wrong all the time yet still be employed....

Today I finally got around to giving it a bath to get last weeks rain off. Due to the heat we have going on, I needed a bath afterwards lol
Stay tuned for som more power coating shenanigans here soon.

Trying to track down an always hot tap point to install trunk and bag lights in the Wing. I'll use the latch circuit for the ground leg. That was way easier than finding a hot wire.

Got my rear darkside tire on this week.

Oh and I forgot. Got my upgraded final drive install finished. Can't wait to see how that changes her manners.

Replaced my KlockWerks windscreen after just a year… of course they won’t cover it but it’s been on the bike for a year and when washing it I noticed a crack around one of the mounting screws. Last year they were $180ish…. This year… $250!!

I attempted to change the oil on a 2016 KTM 390 and one of the oil filter bolts snapped. Was using a torque wrench and they broke before it got to the specified 8Nm of torque. Cursing myself.

Took the GT for a 250km evening ride

 

[202mphbusa]

1985 V-Max with 155k miles
Off the road for three years now
Sent carbs to a V-max Specialist to get them rebuilt

Once I get my Busa motor out and the chassis off the lift I need to pull the max's fuel tank and make sure its clean

you can feel ever degree and then some right now I’m glad I took a half day as I do not want to ride in the triple digits and sit in 5pm traffic for an hour

Rode it... yesterday. But today's still young.

That stinks. I didn’t like those bolts on my DR650 so replaced the with studs and flange nuts to minimize wear on the threads and only use a 1/4 inch ratchet and barely put any force.

Thankfully threads were fine so was easy to tap them out with the edge of a screwdriver until I could get pliers on them, after I’d had a beer to drown my sorrows! Have replaced with better bolts and just snugged them in.

Installed the dual wide band target tune to work with the powervision I have. Now the auto tune can really see what’s going on. Might take me a few months to ride as it’s hotter than the devils armpits right now. After pulling the wide band plugs it’s clear to see on cylinder running richer than the other one
