こんにちはフライトがどうでしたか?










[Hello, how was the flight?]

Tiring and very uncomfortable for my long, lanky body, I was hurting pretty bad last night, but feel good today...I guess in the future I am going to have to cough up the $$$ to fly business class, cant handle 8 hours in a seat designed for someone 5 ft 4 inches... Sad

last time we flew to ND, we were lucky enough to get the emergency exit seat. good thing since it was a flight from here to SLC  or St Paul.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Another 20 to 25 years and you'll be right here too and when you do get here you'll wonder how it happened all so fast.  cheeky

Not likely.  I don't expect I'll have any cognitive reasoning left at that point.  Where's my beer!   chug

Finally had the time to drop off the 848 to get the new tires put on. and was told that my brake and clutch fluid is dirty and that for $140 they can replace the fluid for me... is it just me or does a 140 bucks seem a bit high for a few bottles of brake fluid? anyways i told them no thank you and just put on my tires. hopefully the weather is nice and i can make the JJ ride sunday.

WHAT ? ? ? ? ? ? $140.00 to flush liquid ? ? ? ? ?
I charged $250.00 to replace both masters and slave cylinder, pads and calipers ... Plus cleaned/lubed chain, lubed chassis, cleaned tank, replaced oil/filter, fuel filter, and many other things ... bring me your bike, I'll charge $30.00 inlcuding fluids ...

Yeah i was suprised too, 40 bucks for the front, 40 for the rear, and 60 for the clutch fluid...

$30 seems more then reasonable but i think that this might be the kind of thing that i can do myself. i mean i bled the brakes on over a 100 different cars so how different can it be to drain the old fluid out and put new fluid in?
