Front Fender, I did not want to scratch or break it and all my shelf are full.:D

 

I usually tell students to use their head for something other than a hat rack. I guess to hold a fender meets the criteria.

100% a track bike, I will keep the stock fairings for a little while... maybe... but I honestly doubt if the bike ever sees a singe street mile

Yeah yeah, I was messing with you.  Still using those leathers I bought from you a couple years back, btw!

Last week I discovered I trashed the transmission in my kfx450r. I pulled the motor on Sunday and started working my way to the transmission tonight.

Getting close but need to locate a flywheel puller. 

Durk, I have a kit with multiple pullers of difference sizes you are welcome to use. I have a check-up at "The James" in Columbus on Monday the 9th. at 11:00 I don't know where you live or work but as long as it's not to far away in the hood we could meet up.

Thanks for the offer Brian. I live in no mans land AKA Jefferson,OH in Ashtabula county. No where near Columbus or any city for that matter. I pulled the flywheel with a 3 jaw puller. Ruined the flywheel in the process, but it's off now. What's an extra $200 on the rebuild right? I feel like a moron. My buddy told me once before we have to pay for our education at times. I guess this is 1 of those times.

Replaced the OEM Bridgstone battlewings today for a set of Mitas Eo7 Dakar's for the Adv ride this weekend.

The rear 502 has 3 months/4221 Miles and not much left on the center for any gravel/dirt traction.

O yea, I mowed the lawn also.

Went to Iron Pony for the first time. That place is insanely huge!!!! I sat on a bunch of bikes, atvs, side x sides, pretty much everything. 

I hate to say it but there was a nice Indian cruiser i could actually see myself riding if i ever got a street bike again.

It's dangerous working 8 minutes away.  I have pissed more $$$ away during lunch at IP than I care to admit.

Same here.  It's on my way home from work.  Dangerous place to stop when you have money in your pocket.

Changed the oil in the SV last weekend. It needed it. Need to flush the water out of the 1k before it gets too cold.

Thread is what did you do to your bike TODAY.

SEO for 280 miles.

Rode the bike to work today. The ride in was a bit chilly, but ride home was great to forget about high schoolers. Continued my work on piecing back together my quad. I put the case back together the other night. Tonight I put in the oil pumps and the gears that drive them. I also installed the balancers and the primary drive gear. Thankfully I took a look at the starter clutch that came with the used flywheel I purchased on EBay. It was trashed so I swapped it with the one I had in my flywheel I broke. Hopefully I will have everything pieced back together soon and I’ll just be waiting on the piston and cylinder to arrive.
