We don't really have to change our pressure in East Alabama

 

Being a one man shop has got to suck when it comes to the paperwork, we have me (office admin), store manager, and one salesman to handle the paperwork from 4 tire techs (3 emergency roadside techs, one dedicated to the shop) and 2 mechanics.

That would be nice to get a trip in, I’m hoping that when my dad gets back in town he and I can go hit some of the trails before it gets chilly.

That would be a big move!
I wish we had approval to hire another guy in the office, I was the most recent hire and it’ll be a while before we can get approval to get another office person, my manager turned the store around from losing 100K/month to making a profit or at least breaking even in 8 months, we still don’t make a huge margin but we’re getting better.
If we can boost our mechanics productivity we’ll be golden, but right now my guys (well, one in particular) is taking 2-3 hours to do a one hour job, taking his buddies stuff into the shop and working on it on the clock and not charging for it, and other stuff like that.
I’m hoping we will be profitable enough to hire another person in 3-6 months.

I don’t know what I’m looking at but it looks like a headache
Good luck and enjoy the trip!

 

I run 12 front 10 rear...

 

I guess i should increase them then.. maybe they're losing air?

 

The KTM almost couldn’t go fast enough.

 

What's the sticker on your chain guard or under your seat say? Genuinely intrigued, it may just be a lower PSI than I'm used to.

 

33/36 up to 200lb load, so not too horribly off?

 

Holy post-it note batman!

 

thats really odd its doing that i never had a stall issue on my tacoma when i had it. now it didnt have super high miles but it never did that so thats odd

how did you like the larger tank size? ive been thinking of getting one for my klx eventually just havent yet lol

also thinking about swapping all the green plastics to a different color but idk what to choose! i want something bright with cool and bright graphics ugh!

those monitors hurt me!

 

I had the IMS tank on mine.

 

ah see those look goofy to me lol i still want my front fairing bits so i was looking at the ones like what he has on his bike. for what i do that tank is way to big!


also i dig that bright yellow lol

 

I wanted to build that bike like a "world traveler"

 

haha i gotcha how heavy was the bike with that tank full of gas?

 

It wasn't bad on the road, but not really one for hard off-road riding

 

haha i can imagine man

 

I want to say it was a 4 gallon.

 

ya that would be heavy on trails up on the front lol

 

Asked my boss around 3:30 if he cared if I did an oil change on my bike and he said he didn’t so I knocked it out, and the. Decided to go ahead and attempt the thermo-bob, got it installed (except for the temp gauge) and tested to ensure there are no leaks and the coolant system was burped.


And then rode to my father in laws house to drop off some tires he ordered.

 

What app is that? Looks intriguing to track stuff
