Guess i have so sell my ass of to afford two more bikes, and all their gear,.... goodbye race tires

haha. just checking back into this thread.
carry on'

 

Just keep enjoying it and introduce her early. Families that wheelie together stay together.

 

Last wednesday it was 70 degrees out so I rode around for a bit testing out a new LED bulb and just generally hooning.
Today it is 14 degrees and there is snow and ice everywhere.

 

Good Lord. You guys have some whack weather.

 

that's the south. I cannot just "go outside" with "what I think" is the appropriate attire. I always have to check the weather before I take a step outside. Today was "wear two layers of gloves"

 

I'm jealous. It's been frozen or 50 and raining

 

It's a warm and sunny 81° here.

 

50s to 70s in socal lately. Just haven't had time to ride

 

What's the coldest it gets there?

 

Typically lows in the winter are in the 40s. Can pretty much ride year around. Summer gets a little rough. Could get a week of 110 so you better be riding at 6am.

 

I would gladly take 110 with low humidity. I am thoroughly sweating in traffic if it's even 95 here. Usually it's 75% humidity or more. Weeeee

 

I once rode from Tucson to DFW in 95-105 weather over two days. Doing 95-105 with wet clothing made it pretty easy. Being dry was rough. Peed molasses when I finally got there.

 

Got a new set or kx high bend bars to replace the cr high bars, see how i like the less sweep and a half inch taller bar feeling.

 

Tore into the rear brake issue this afternoon.

The fluid had air and dirt all through it. So i cleaned the rubber seal out and rebled the rear brake. That seemed to fix the issue. But i’m bot sure how so much dirt and air got in there. So i ordered $48.50 worth of various rear brake parts and seals to hopefully correct some of the dirt intrusion. Also ordered a BeRad Products machined aluminum rear brake reservoir cover in anozided red. That should hopefully seal better than the stock magneseuim one.

When i get all that stuff, i’ll put the Zeta rear brake pedal on.

But as of now, the bike is safe and has perfect brake pedal pressure/feedback again

 

There's a sweet DRZ Supermoto at one of the dealerships here, made me think of you. ♡

 

Possibly meeting up with some local dual sporters tomorrow morning for a trail ride. I'm a little nervous. Been on that trail a ton with my truck, but never on a bike. The bike being so tall and not having hand guards would probably be my biggest concern.

 

Get me the wneels off of it. Kthx bb

 

Getting serious with the face lift..... the stock head light has always drove me nuts. Ima put two round small running rights down the middle to use during the day time
