Wrong tread pattern, but if they make a moto-x tire a trials is possible.

Thanks...

How much work to go to 21"?  More than just lacing the new rim on?

New spokes too.

I will probably go to an 18" rear at the same time to keep geometry similar, and may have to find a smaller front sprocket to give the thing it's grunt back.

Good thing you like puttering.

Hopefully the SS motor goes back together today and back in the frame this week.  Gotta fix a few cracks in the bodywork and that's likely good enough for this season

Building wheels isn't too bad.

Parts are 'spensive.

Morning.  Almost have the old bathroom removed.  Biggest problem is there are no cut-off valves for the shower.  Gonna have to turn off the house water for a while to put those in.  Old tile is up, most fixtures out, and the old concrete board is coming up today.

Morning . . .

Checking a customer's Ford EcoSport 1.6L mini suv . . . Difficulties starting in the mornings and while normal driving hesitation under hard acceleration . . . for now, almost clogged PCV, dirty as hell ISC/IAC[iddle control], will not bring tank down to inspect/replace fuel filter just yet . . .

Will, mount front wheel back on bike and put in a ride later . . .

We're getting ready to take a walk in the woods with the dog. After that, we grill!
