Finally received the shims for he 1800 valves and got it back together this afternoon. Think I might just have to put a couple three hundred miles in the mountains on it tomorrow to break them in.

Sounds like that would be the minimum run in procedure. Enjoy the hard work of running them in! :moped: :good:

It was 10 C a couple of hours ago and now it is almost 10am so I should stop playing and go and do some work. It will be a high of 21 C today but later in the week it will be back up to a high of 24 C ( 75 F ). Great winters weather in SE Queensland :yes:

Tony...are you the Wizard of OZ? :ahem:

[Ansimp]

I don't know about the Wizard but maybe the Slack Ba$tard

 

[dan filipi]

Slackin off eh Tony?

Such nice weather should be out riding. :moped:

 

[Ansimp]

I might take you up on that idea Dan as I need to do a parts run :good:

 

[detdrbuzzard]

its been hot and humid and my ride to work and back home is full of construction. I don't feel safe on the wing so I've been enjoying the air conditioner in my van

 

[Ansimp]

Fixed up the Vetter lock that had failed

He really is a whiz of a wiz!

 

[brianinpa]

Gave it the once over one last time before I hit the road this weekend. I still have to change the oil and check the air in the tires tonight, but the bike is ready for another epic adventure!

 

[joedrum]

cool

Due to the hot, humid valley weather, I rode over 441 to Cherokee, onto the BRP to Asheville, then back via US25/70 through Hot Springs, NC. Yep, a little over 300 miles and the Black Pearl ran great! Even gave her a bath when we got home.
