at 1200 miles I made the change today to synthetic oil on Sunny2.0. Motul 7100 20W-50. And she is purring like a happy cat. So I wandered around a bit to feel her out and man, does the DR like the 20W. Shifts like butter. Ready now for leaving next Monday for a week in Appomattox VA and the Horizons Unlimited event there. After that? The Yukon and Alaska! I sold what’s left of the old bike along with the unused parts from the new bike to a fellow DR650 enthusiast who has the tools and capabilities to rebuild motors. He sent me pictures of the old lump. As suspected, the cage on the main bearing failed. Somehow bizzarrely, no apparent damage anywhere in the motor other than some scoring on the crank. He’s replacing the bearing a confident she will run again!

Starts the first full week in May, lasts 35 days. Short one lane section closures.

I’ll be staying at Deals Gap mid May for a few nights on the way home from the Texas Hill Country. 👍

^^^^^ Sweet Triumph!

Upgraded the suspension on the Street Twin. If I could only keep one motorcycle it would be this one. It's engaging, fun, handles well (even before the Fox Shocks), sounds great, and has character for days. It has a vintage racer vibe, and responds really well to proper rider inputs.

More info soon.... 2013 Ninja 300 One owner So many additions: Brocks full stainless system and power commander 5 All led lights and integrated Saddleman sport seat Vortex rear sets Solo cawl Frame sliders Axle sliders Double bubble Shorty levers Extra set of rims and tires Lowering kit - not on the bike Radiator guard Extra tall windscreen All oem parts Extra black plastics (from another bike) Selling to buy the ZX4RR

Ok, 2 organs removed in 5 months. I am 4 months post Op. 295x2 dead lift 145x3 bench press Started linking toes to bar again this week and rope climbs are almost back. I do not recommend losing organs to lose weight. It works, but not worth it.

I am having suspension done too. The bike has been calling.

I love this and you know why.

Safe travels, Dan. Wishing for picture perfect weather.

You being here to post that is pretty strong evidence that they do a great job.

Caution: They SUCK at deflecting minivans.

If you two would get a newer wing you could use them to deflect warm air from the radiators on you in the cold, or block it in the heat. Durks radiator air flows ass backwards. Paulys may too.

I removed more paneling and the arm rest brackets Amanda said she would never use. Reinstalled the giant wind deflectors, which are hideous but very effective. Changed the oil and filter. Rode it to work yesterday. Turned 27k on the ride home. Also rides like a dream at 85mph.

I'm just glad I opened this up to pictures of a vehicle and it wasn't a new testicle like I was fearing

Spent some time pulling more cabinet facing off the Tupperware. Almost there and thought about going all the way, but my fingers started to protest. Two fat blisters on my thumb and index fingers quelled my enthusiasm. Very pleased with the way its looking so far.

Assembled the Goldwing and took a short ride to shake down the suspension upgrade. 100% worth the money. Low speed maneuvers and highway handling is most noticeable. It doesn't wallow and 75mph is solid as 45mph. Bumps are smoothed out, too.

I think the biggest difference between a man and a woman is the meaning of (What an Ass) is.
