Travisty

Rode at NCM yesterday. Fun track

Thanks for the input.

Bueller, Bueller.......

Break in on a Triumph is: Ride it like you stole it!

Picked up my new demo yesterday and rode it home. It is a Tiger 800 XRT. Hopefully I will be able to keep this one for a bit. Still chasing my brakes on the race bike. I just can't get te feel I used too. Might have to rebuild the master.

Saddle soap and mink oil.

I'm looking for suggestions to ride trails in the Cincinnati area. I have a 1999 KDX200 that I would love to get out more on. Not to mention, I've spent a boat load get this bike rolling again. I found it in a garden shed.

If the plates are in spec, the springs will just make for better engagement. If this is your daily driver, I wouldn’t recommend stiffer springs. It will just make a harder pull.

Adjust at the case first. Fine tune at the pirtch. If is feels that it is engaging too late, then let it out at the case, then take up the slack at the pirtch. If this doesn’t help, take it back tot he dealer if it has warranty. If no warranty, then your pulling the clutch and measuring the stack and plates.

Race bike 90% done.

In for Saturday.

Installed new exhaust, new tank pads, rebuilt calipers, new brake pads, new rotors, new number plates, new wind screen, new remote lever adjuster, flush and fill radiator, oil change, new light weight battery, installed captive wheel spacers, bled brakes....... I was in the garage until 3 am. Still not completely done.

You must understand this (which I didn't understand when I bought my first trailer), they are money pits. High maintenance, and unpredictable. Between my father and I we have had four travel trailer. Even the new ones have been back in the shop for warranty work multiple times. I have had the best luck buying a slightly used one from someone I know took good care of it. So, all the money I saved could be used to maintain it. Other then that, if you used them enough they are worth every penny. I miss my C class toy hauler already.

I like the idea. If I'm face down on the ground, because you (the police) think I'm someone else, please don't shoot me. If if fart, or twitch in a threatening manner, you may taze the shit out of me. But, please don't kill me. I only say this because I'm sure we have all seen the video from earlier this year.

After reading all this, I'm happy to hear you took the job. You can always find another, but one thing is for sure, it is easier to find a job when you have one. Back in 09 I spent 9 months in the unemployment line. Worst 9 moths ever. Interviews at least three times a week and nothing. The first place that would give me job was a lawn care company doing door to door sales. I was only there 3 months before something better was offered.

Like a turd that won't flush.

Thanks for the welcome. Really looking forward to the season. Someone please tell Mother Nature to stop.

It will my first time there, and test and tune. Won’t be setting any records.

Just signed up. Never been there, so it should be an adventure. Anyone else going that day?

Hello, I just moved to Cincinnati from Madison, WI. Looking forward to getting my bearings and such in Ohio. I ride everything, but prefer sportbikes. I've been riding for over 35 years. I still love sporty Sunday rides to the twisties. I also have raced CCS, and have been a CR/rider seminar coach, for my local trackday organization.
