Title: Bonding with Mo Post by: orangelion03 on September 26, 2009, 02:05:25 PM My Monster (I have named it "Mo") and I have finally bonded. I purchased my bike this past September 11th and left it with Nick at VDS for valves and belts. He delivered it to me on the 15th and in the meantime, I had ordered new chain and sprockets, purchased oil and filter, some special tools, and a few other odds and ends. Finally, today, I had time to work on it and perform the tasks I wanted to do myself. The temperature in my garage was close to 100° (yeah, it's dry...so what?) and it peaked higher at times when I cursed at something, but I got everything done that I wanted to do today. Thanks to Colin748916, I was able to torque the necessary bolts to spec since I have not received the manual I ordered last week.
Here's a pic of Mo and me. Note custom work stand. We're going to go for a ride when it cools down this evening. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v48/orangelion03/bondingwithmo.jpg) Title: Re: Bonding with Mo Post by: needtorque on September 26, 2009, 02:58:46 PM Nice.
With those glasses you kind of remind me of the dad from "Malcom in the Middle". Title: Re: Bonding with Mo Post by: miamiduc on September 26, 2009, 03:08:04 PM 100 degees isn't that bad.

Has all of the torque specs you'll ever need for that bike. Title: Re: Bonding with Mo Post by: NorDog on September 26, 2009, 03:51:26 PM Oh, sorry, thought "Mo" was a new brand of epoxy.
