What did you do to your bike today?

Any particular reason he tried that?

He cleaned his bike then the downpours overnight added about a gallon of water to the gas tank due to a leaking gas cap.

Aftermarket gas cap with failed o-rings due to them not being ethanol compatible and 10years old. Parked under the eve of the building to where basically a waterfall was on the tank of my bike for hours in a monsoon. Equals probably a half a gallon of water in the gas tank.

All is good now. Pulled the tank dump the gas, wiped out as much as we could. Gave it a quick rinse. Fresh gas and seafoam and she's running like a dream again.

You will be fine. I help a guy in a similar situation only he tried half had and half diesel.

I sold the Goldwing and brought this sexy thing home. Always loved the looks of these street brawlers.

I binned the stem mirrors and am expecting my CRG Blindsight to arrive tomorrow. Ordered new tires and an oil change kit. Suspension refresh happens before I can ride it. The trailer ride home cashed the fork seals. Both sides are pretty wet. Might as well have the shocks worked over while its down. 

I'm not even going to pretend this bike won't end up with Ohlins everywhere, but if it can wait until the car is paid for... that'd be swell. 😆 

Handlebar is probably being replaced with a Renthal Street Bar sometime before the season ends.

That Z-Rex will bring out the hooligan in you! 

Exactly the way a Goldwing won't!

Which year is that?

Wasn't today, but "recent enough"

Took my Kawi Versys on a 260 mile ride down to Beverly, Ohio and back Tuesday. Hit 555 to 676. 83 and 284 heading home. Really enjoying this smaller and lighter bike.

I was supposed to stay off the bike for a month after a pair of surgeries I had. 
Couldn’t stand it and cut that a bit short and took a spin in the Valley yesterday. It was great to get out and the bike appreciated the attention and use. Stopped for a sandwich and beer, and then later at a great spot off Riverview to stretch and walk a bit. 
Then back to my Father’s.

Forks being refreshed. Tires, front pads, oil change, coolant flush happening this week. Mirror situation was handled first thing. Ordered a new fuel fill cap, too. This one is a little too bedazzled for my archaic sensibilities.

Rode it on my 1st "fun" ride of the season around the Hocking Hills.  Im out of shape for riding and I forgot to take ibuprofen at lunch...  I'm pretty sore now.  🤭
