Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

Trying to get this back on the road again. So far changed all the fluids and fired up. Needed to replace the front brake master cylinder, acquired to replace old original brake lines with SS lines, clean brake fluid diverter and reinstall, and have already rebuilt 1 brake caliper and rebuilding the second one. Should have it all done this weekend.

 

55mph on that sounds terrifying, not gonna lie

 

Forced to change my weekend plans. Have off work the rest of this week and was supposed to head to Marietta, OH for a FJR forum gathering leaving out tomorrow morning. Weather forecast for Marietta has gone to shit so rather than riding that far to spend Friday and Saturday sitting at the hotel waiting for the 90% chance of rain to let up we cancelled our reservations. Actually quite a few members from that forum are cancelling theirs as well. On the bright side my new tires for the Honda should be delivered so I might be able to get those swapped. Our development is holding a neighborhood yard sale so now we can participate in that and try to unload some of our junk and not but too much of a neighbor's junk. Thursday should still be a good riding day so trying to figure out how many GLMC and/or Team Strange bonus locations I can nab.

 

Haha. Its not that bad actually. Had to turn it down to 190 amps continous though to not trip the bms. Got it up to 66 mph for my testing. I dont have enough street or want to test it faster. Now i may gear it down some to get a little more grunt since im not able to run as many amps.
