Ahead of schedule

Really liking this look.

Actually more like this. It’s called Grinch Green

Little more blast and shoot.

Let’s not let this turn into one. Found cases of Mobile 1 racing 4T full synthetic at Summit BOGO. So 12 quarts for $65 bucks. Smokin deal.

Anything is possible. Plan was to take what I need and part it out for profit but I don’t think I can bring myself to kill it. Bike is weathered but a couple hours draining old gas, quick carb clean and adjustment and a spark plug and she runs like a top. I had to have one as well. Now I’ve had five.

My Yamaha is starting to feel outnumbered

Guess I got plenty?

Definitely won’t need a tank badge to tell it’s a Kawasaki.

Kawasaki ZRX. Was about to own a brand new one in early 2000’s before getting out of motorcycling. Over a decade later when getting back into it I put one in the garage. It’s still there and outlasted the 5 other bikes that have come and gone. It’s old with no technology or rider aids. Carberated, loud, far from cushy, not always compliant and has to be driven hard out of corners to settle. Just a very mechanical bike and I love it. Really don’t think I could part with it. It will however get completely tore down this winter and massaged a little.

Also drives me insane with bikes coming through town or at gas stations and such but....... I gotta admit my Vaquero was rolling with a top of the line competition level pro audio setup. 10 speakers, 3 amplifiers, and a digital sound processor. However never blasted through populated areas. Think I mostly did it because I could, I was bored and it really pissed off the Harley crowd to get drowned out by the “Jap” bike when they were showing off. Back on topic. I looked at all brands before buying the Vaquero including HD. Hands down Indian impressed me the most. Very very nice. Almost bought a chieftan dark horse but really wanted a frame mounted fairing. If this woulda been out then I’d own one. Not sure how HD competes with them.

Well that was fun

Pretty sure there’s no end to that motor. My nuts disappeared before the power did.

That’s very nice. CZ’s are top notch

Try to do this every off season. After a season of road grime and riding in the wet the suspension and brake fluid look like complete shit.

Only put in about 250 today but it was nothing but the good twisty stuff. Great day for a ride.

Or busted knuckle money pit. All in how you look at it I guess.

I hope it’s an awesome deal on a used bike. Or maybe your picking up something to go with that Halloween pirate costume.

Ride posted for Sunday. I’m off Monday and most likely headed somewhere. Let me know if you wanna meet up Monday

Headed out tomorrow with @FORD with no particular route. Will be the normal OR medium ish pace. If anyone from the north wants to jump in we can do a meet in Millersburg say 10:00 if needed and bring them down 60-208-93-83-as far south as time permits. Otherwise we’ll be heading south out of New Concord and spend the day headed to the river.

First off. Easy on that slumming shit. Secondly I think my first ride with any of the OR fellas was January or February of 2017. Had a blast running those salt, cinder, and sand covered roads to Hundred and back with you guys. Of course it took about two days to clean all the shit off the bike but totally worth it. I believe that was the same ride that in a matter of about 3 corners Jim’s taillight completely disappeared on 536. I was amazed how smooth and fast that entire group of riders were.

Bit of a late response but I’m out. Looks like you may be right about the season ending soon. Hope to get out Sunday or Monday.

Most carbs have a drain. Use it. if You leave battery in bike on tender leave the seat off to let that little bit of heat out. Critters like the warmth and chew the shit out of wiring. Damn I hate mice.

Ruger precision rimfire or Cz 457 post above makes a good point. If you start down that road you end up with a $1000 10/22 pretty quick CZ makes a pretty nice rifle that you should have no need to mod.

May have to find a way to make it. Where you headed?
