And were does one find fresh camel milk?

Got the KTM reassembled, fired up and new manual cam chain tensioner adjusted. Oh and near gassed myself to death in the process. Had wrapped and painted the header and didn't expect so much smoke right off the bat. I had set up a fan but it just wasn't able to cope with the bike deep in the garage. That little plan was re-though with the bike in the opening of the garage and two fans going.

Just need to get my street wheels back and that's all done.

Building a new commuter bonk... Tongue



The time has come to work exercise back into my routine. Been off the skates for months, the gym no longer fits into my schedule, and running hasn't been as fun as I wanted it to be. So I've decided to pedal to work again and am playing soccer with office mates twice a week during lunch.

Finally finished putting the DynaIII ignition on the Guzzi. Not completely modern though - it just replaces the points & condensors; it still requires the mechanical advance, which on the 850-T is mounted on the end of a distributor housing from a Fiat.  waytogo

From a camel... Roll Eyes

I work in Kuwait, there are quiet a few here, went into the desert and bought some from a bedouin who was milking them.

It's very creamy and from a little googling found out that it's 10 times better for you than cows milk.

Well I guess being in Kuwait makes it a bit easy then getting it here in Baltimore.

It's like the Naty Boh of Kuwait.

Got the KTM all back together with some new rubber, additional tool stash, wrapped header and 'clever-lever' clutch lever. Finally a bike again.
