did you wind up seeing that shuttle launch?

and cool, lets set something up... i wont be able to stop by for the first two weekend in may (gf is in town) but i'll be free after that

You're gf doesn't want to learn a valve check??? dude, get rid of her.

Is she coming in town next weekend or the weekend after?

Next weekend would work for me if it's cool with He Man?

That ride through Eastern TN is dope!

[thought]

arriving may 6th, so the weekend after... so if you guys are up for next weekend, i can def do it

[live2ride]

Maybe i should just take the plunge and try it myself. My only hesitation is that, with everything else i've worked on, I really have no frame of reference for when I get it right. I'm probably doing a fine job, but I have no real way of knowing. It makes for a nervous rider  So, maybe HE MAN will offer his tutelage?

Regardless, have an awesome ride down to NC! are you taking 81? And keep in touch about checking the valves, maybe you, me, and Thought can figure it out together.

Thanks.  No, i'm not taking 81.  I'm going down to Philly, DC, OBX, and coming back via Virginia Beach.  Loaded up the bike and gonna head out tomorrow.  Had to jerry-rig a luggage rack to fit everything as my girl is riding pillon.  Will be back next weekend, so I would love to come if you guys want to try and figure it out together.

Since He-Man is on this thread, i want to ask something.  How did you load up all your gear for your trip?  Did you use a luggage rack?  If so, which or pics? thanks

[He Man]

ill be home tomorrow so ill show you a pic. but i did  2 saddle bags + 1 tail bag. I have a ventura rack that holds it all together.


have fun tomorrow! i am on my way up, expect it to be make the beast with two backsing RAINING NUTS AND BOLTS.... Id say delay your departure for 1 day...

[live2ride]

if i delay my trip one day, i'd be in thunderstorms an extra day coming back.  o well.  camping is gonna be a pregnant dog but hopefully there isn't too much wind.

[live2ride]

what's happening with this? i'm back from my road trip and after adding another 1500 miles, i would like to check my valves soon.  anyone free this weekend?  or even tomorrow?

[He Man]

PM me.

[thought]

if you guys meet up, i'd be up to swing by too

[mooshichoctaw]

yeah are you guys meeting up? right now my bike is stuck in my studio, the freight elevator's dead  but i'd meet up anyways

[He Man]

I am installing MBP collets on a DS1000 motor later this week. They are a PITA to install and I don't have the space for this many people as of now. You'd all probably be confused why i'm cussing half the time (they are annoying to install)
