I just took a route up to bucyrus not long ago, 47 to 7 something or other to 4. And 47 outside of bellefontaine has some pretty nice twisties. Better yet, 30 miles of my journey and I saw no traffic. Clean roads, minimal dirt, good clear view for most of it. Wanting to travel back that way some time. But I heard south/ southeast Ohio has the most beautiful roads. Lots of mountains and enough twisties to make you dizzy. Just need to find someone that knows the area...

Yeah, me too! 245 and 287 southwest of Bellefontaine are quite entertaining. There's a good 50 mile loop starting and ending in Marysville. Hit me up if you want to ride it sometime.

Welcome! I moved hear from the northwest suburbs of Minneapolis in February!

Seems like most of the really good riding is southeast of Columbus. Even up near Marysville and Bellefontaine you can find roads more entertaining than most available in Minnesota.

Is this sold yet?

Thanks! My gas cap vent came in today, looks good. Also got my XR80 front wheel. It was delivered Friday, but held at the post office due to it being larger than my mailbox... 

Waiting on the tires, tubes, spokes, and jetting!

You should get an answer soon.

Anyone else, email that addy about race numbers. You should also get a response.

Biggie

I just attempted to email that address and received an "address does not exist" delivery error. Is there a typo in the address?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Both are probably fine. Hell, Russ has his face on his front number plate.

Even with all the bikes being the same model, you'll know 95% of the grid within 2-3 weekends...

Cool. I might run the first event with good ol' painter's tape numbering, just to confirm availability.

Also, ordered up an Alpinestars Carver Two-Piece, heres hoping it fits...

245 and 287 are in decent shape. West of Marysville and south of Bellefontaine.

Parts ordered from Ron Ayers, and Alpinestars Carver Two-Piece ordered from Riders Discount.

Out to ride!

I've already ran some errands on the SV this morning. I'm currently sourcing a pair of leathers and some carb parts for OMRL while I make lunch. I'm walking around the kitchen in my boots and riding jacket...

I'd prefer 23 or 007, in that order..... either of those work?

I'm bored on this beautiful saturday, and I'll either be riding alone or with a group. I'd rather have the latter!

I'm up for just about any distance of ride, who'd be up to meet and ride?

Justin

Yeah, I need to get the oil changed for sure. I need to make a run to harbor freight and pick up a bunch of disposable drill bits though...

Took off the trunk. Problem solved.

Day-Long Saddles! Dreamy.

It has 9 broken rear spokes... other than that it starts and runs well. Plastics are in better shape than expected.

Message me to set up shipping and payment details.

Haha, yeah, that would work best then.

Alright, I'll go for it. Would you just ship it to me, or swing by Marysville?

After thinking through it, I'll take you up on the 55 buck catch can setup offer. I don't think I could buy the materials for a ton less.

So where are the connections originating for the catch can setup. Float bowl, Airbox? What else? Is the 1/8 in line you said you'd provide the red lines in the photos above?

What are the catch cans used for?

I'm not going to lose 5 positions because of jetting, I'm going to lose them because of a dearth of track experience and the fact that I weigh 250 sans gear.

I'm going to check with Honda of Marysville on monday. Also the Honda Service center I have access to at work should be good. Apparently they can get parts in 2 days.

You guys have any ideas where the best place to source the carb jets might be?

And yes, it was me that bought that wheel on eBay! It's already shipped and on its way from Illinois.

Yeah, that sounds like a plan on this tires. I should make it to the first April 26th event, and if you wanted to help me mount them that would be great.

The owner did tell me about the rear wheel needing spokes, I planned on just replacing the spokes and not the whole wheel, unless that's a problem.
