yep... earlier in the year, one of the apprentices (who rides) mentioned how he was surprised to see my bike in the lot one morning because the weather was all shitty... 'when I looked outside, I figured you would drive today'

now if he doesn't see it, he's always like, 'ah, grocery run today?'


desert?   Huh? what, like ewa?

make the beast with two backs that, it's too hot

The little desert."Diamond Head" Cool waytogo

Remodel or addition?  Looks promising.

Full gut job on my master bath. Turning out to be a touch more expensive than I had originally planned, but that's how this sort of thing normally works, right? Right??

Man cave bathroom!  Not exactly something the fairer sex would go for but then you could always demonstrate the depth of your affections by remodeling again.   laughingdp

FALSE!!  I ran the design by several attractive womenz, and they all thought it was great.  Believe me, I did my research.

Hey MacDuck,

tech question if I may: got a 04 M620, choke lever pull to max, rpms don't go up but stay around 2K . . .pull back to "off" engines sputers a bit; did a TPS reset with the Centurion UE tool and also a trim adjustment, it was on 85!!

It took some time but, idle, idle trim and TPS were set; choke however, still not funtioning properly, any ideas?

Kind of glad I sold the monster. The roads around my base are atrocious. I get tossed around even when I'm in my car. Also, I think they keep the backup generator for Hell in the training area at Fort Polk.

It really isn't a "choke" per se but just more of a high idle. I haven't messed around too much with that but it is looming soon on my neighbors bike. There is a second cable from that thumb activated lever and a separate linkage at the throttles. Those get stuck or jammed for some reason that I haven't figured out yet. This is starting to happen to the bike I mentioned but is not so much of a problem that I have to sort it out, yet......
