The blinker picture gave it away regardless! I thought I remembered Stan mentioning it last weekend but then I saw the blinker picture and it all came back. Don't hate because I occasionally remember something! It happens so rarely I am happy when it does!

I figured as much, but it is so much fun to give 'Skrat a hard time.

Not as new at 'Spoke's ride... I had to fire up the heater for a rear sprocket change/cush drive inspection. Part came from CA Cycleworks with routine sticker and candy (M&M's this time): New sprocket: Dampers, drive pins, and bearings all looked good: Installed on wheel: ...and DONE:

No pics from me, but I tried using Goo Gone on my wheels and it worked, but I still refuse to clean a chain I rode up to the Tyler Harley/Triumph shop to look around and get some chain wax. The few Triumphs are hidden in the back and all the gear is chap related Still finding more good local roads here and Friday was a blast. Great choice on the Streetfighter Stan!

Whoa! That's impressive My replacement bodywork for the 999 is close to being done but what a PITA. Dremmel tool, two-stage epoxy, plastic welder, assorted shims and fasteners from Elliot's and we're almost there Pictures this weekend.

Over the last 3 days, I managed to get new rubber put on the 749 new timing belts and did an oil change for both bikes. The 1100evo is a pain becuase you have to remove the can and the mid-pipe to get to the tubed filter. I finished the oil change and put the mid-pipe back on and ran it around town just for shits and giggles without the can on the end (thing weighs like 25 pounds) and sweet jesus it was painfully loud. I'm pretty sure anyone within a 2 mile radius heard me. Then got back and put the can back on.

Yea it was pretty obnoxious.
Bridgestone bt-003's. I was previously using bt-016's but was to the point where they were at max capacity.

Been trying to find something to occupy my time lately but doing something productive so I decided to finish out my garage. Let me know what y'all think.

Does green with envy cover it? That pic came very close to motivating me off my butt and sorting out our garage situation but then I came to my senses and will continue to admire your handy work from the comfort of my sofa.

looks great now lets do the floors ASAP. You can buy the linoleum tiles cheap, some armstrong adhesive and go to town for less than $300 bucks and in any color combo you want. No need to spend thousands on etching, paint and so on. My floor's been done for 9 years with NO problems.
