Who Rode Today?

[c10]

Almost time for another c10's garage segment...for something....anything.....

I made a video today of a customers ZRX that he brought to me from another state . It will be here for the next 5 to 6 weeks getting a total overhaul . Engine work , carbs , suspension , elect , and cosmetic . Todays rough 1st round parts was $1600 usd . I expect to find a few items to add . Have not uploaded the video yet . Tomorrow most likely

Same here. Spring has sprung! Bugs are everywhere especially along country farm roads. Had to clean my visor twice on a 140 mile loop. My jacket shoulders and upper arms took a hit too. I’ll clean it up after tomorrow’s ride along with the front of the Busa.

Cycle Gear has some nice hard shell padded knee and shin protectors for around $20 that Velcro perfectly under boot jeans. Cheap protection.

Oops, quoted the wrong post, shoulda been Bryan’s. Same info though.

Rode to fuel station yesterday then about 5 miles to break in the new fuel pump and check for leaks. I must say, the old system was plugged up and full of mud. The cleanup and new pump woke the bike up.

Awesome! Ain’t it cool when you get that result from all that work and effort, all worthwhile.

Went for a ride to my favourite graffiti wall to take a pic but big bunch of cars parked at the wall so have to go later.
I attached a pic of my other sweetheart at the wall last year.
