Great advantage converting my bike back to Standard, carbs were out in 20 minutes!

The weather was nice this weekend (upper 50's) so the wife and I rode about 80 miles Saturday and I took my daughter out today for her 1st ever bike ride, she said she liked it...[emoji2]

Nothing but waiting patiently for belts, new tensioners, Tyrebeads(cheaper than Dynabeads), all metal 90 degree tire stems and to order steering head bearings and tires.

I RODE mine today, for the first time since November! :yahoo: :yahoo:
Well....kinda sort rode. Got stuck in a 15-20 mile long traffic jam, due to an accident near downtown Dallas, so I basically did the duck-walk for 15 miles....an hour late getting to werk. :rant: The rest of the 40 mile run was happy time, tho. :mrgreen: Weather is clear, temps in the mid 40s this mernin, and 'posed to be low 70s this afternoon....just couldn't resist...had to ride! :good:

Stop and go traffic is tough for me to do on mine.
Definately not my favorite thing to do but good you got to ride anyhow.

I looked at the mule and made sure the battery charger was connected.

Got bored and tired of sitting in the house, (Dr's orders) so I got out in this beautiful 74 degree sunshiny day and removed the fairing, lowers and the faux tank off one on my 85 Interstates. I could not believe the difference in weight between the loaded down Aspencade fairing and the Interstate fairing.

That sucks... at least I have 1/2 a foot of snow on the ground to prevent me from riding.

I need to do that. Or maybe put a new battery in it.

Took the battery out of her and brought it inside for the winter :salute: :salute: :salute:

Went for a ride in the morning on a beautiful clear summers day and left my ride home a little late

Unfortunately the wife rang me to see what the weather was like at home as she had a washing line full of clothes. With the dashcam app it stops recording when you get a call so there isn't any video of me riding up the dreaded driveway which was more like a river. The front end almost skated out from under me at the bottom of the driveway, I Freddy Flintstoned ( both feet on the ground) as I used the Rats Nest's incredible torque and excellent traction of the new Shinko A230 to get me up to the house. Normally I would drag the rear brake as a form of traction control but I wasn't game enough to put my feet on the pegs until I was half way up the hill.

Unfortunately the auto focus isn't very good because of my dirty windshield but here is a recording going down the DD 2 1/2 hours later
