Seriously Rich......about to move to Texas where shit is right.

You need to move to Montana. I just permanently registered a new sportbike for $94. Well, not truly permanent; it expires in April of 9999, good for another 7,986 years. ;D

Think how excited you'll be if she decided to let you make the return trip! (Did she mention a 3350 mile trip east at all?) ;D
Haha! She can leave me in New York if she likes! ;D
 
A little more about how to dial in the Megacycle X5 cam on my cb350. Also learned that vintage bikes are becoming harder and harder to find and gotta strike when opportunity knocks.
 
Not learned today, instead an old lesson worth passing on...
That she really doesn't mean it when she says "Do what ever the fuck you want!". ::)

She only said that to me once.

I bought the bike.

Still have it.

Here's a little more good info boys:





You're welcome. ;)
 
Today I learned the motorcycle does not run well when the fuel line has popped off and fuel goes to the ground rather then the carburetor. I am buying better clamps...

Sounds like an excellent idea. Any pics, as I am wondering how to wire around the filters especially. I need to replace the filters with ones with barbs. These have no barbs and tend to slide off.

TIL, that Texans are very unhappy at the end of the day, because they have to go to bed every night knowing that when they get up tomorrow morning, Alaska will still be bigger... ;D

Normally I just hand twist safety wire nuts and bolts whenever I need to. But today I learned that even a cheap ass Harbor Freight safety wire pliers works good when faced with safety wiring 30+ nuts.
