Seriously, when i am 800years old i want to rock like Lemmy! it is a religion that requires lots of determination, drugs, and Marshall stacks.

Wooo big trip!
Got some prep work ahead. If it was me I'd;
Install a new fuel filter.
Check those rockers
Check that cam chain
Maybe new wheel bearings
Maybe new chain?
New pads and brake fluids.
new air filter, if paper
Get my tool kit sorted...

Speaking of the fuel filter.. ran the bike some yesterday and man it sounds meaner now. Idle sounds same same, but give it a flick on the throttle and off again and it sounds like it wants to bite someone.

any line, tube, or cable that is of questionable age or status gets replaced and spares for as many of them as possible.
and you might want to throw in a clean pair of undies.

Nice weather returns this weekend!
Looks like the 450 is coming out of retirement

'Twas a good time at the track, not the slowest guy in Intermediates anymore - getting past some of the new 'slowest' guys. Picked up some good tips, good for around a whopping 5-8 seconds a lap from the start of the day to the end. Still room for improvement since I can't keep pace with a fellow on a Duke... so no dillusions he's got more power than me since it's the same same engine.
Now... time for maintenance. Coolants been drained and prepped for a flush before replace with Engine Ice, gotta dump the engine oil, new batch of fork oil is on the way... Might as well order up some deeper lug tires for the dirt set and do some winter explorations.

It's in the fin grid. Can they do for that? Any notion of cost? Never had to fix on up before
