:moped: got real busy decided to put new tire on rear. what a work out. no wonder they charge so much to install. but got it done

 

[joedrum]

yep how can a bike tire cause so much labor and blood... :heat:

 

[steve84]

yep, good to have new rubber. but a total workout.

Most time's spent on tearing apart, & putting everything back together again. :builder: Really love the No Mar tire changer & balance set up, cuts your work out down to size, dismounting & remounting. Pays for itself pretty quickly when you consider labor, time, gas, & bother, as well as having both wheels off at the same time. :yes: When you factor in everything, it costs about $50 or more, to mount & balance a set of tires, you recoup your money in nice size chunks. :yahoo: Then if you do a few for fun & profit, that speeds up the process, plus you NEVER scratch or MAR anyone's wheels, that's a real plus. :thank_you:

Yesterday actually, I installed the $25 look alike 1200 fuel pump and ran it for awhile.
No complaints.

 

[PeterDas]

I put new Galfer front brake lines on and got rid of the spliter block, brakes work much better!

I ran 4 50 watt halogen through the Arizona desert a few years ago.
Boy that was nice how they lit up the road.

And I feel bad about my LED spot/flood lights drawing 36w (2x18w) when you were pulling 200w :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy:

I still run them at highway speed though on the AZ trip I had the alternator.
Stock system can't keep up around town by a long shot, marginal at speed but the LED headlight helps A LOT.

Just walked past Crystal for the f*cking umpteenth time and did nothing to or with her. Still waiting until next :Awe: weekend to do all the work George and I are going to do. Not being able to start her for fear of losing a belt to that blown tensioner is the worst of all. I got on her yesterday and took her off the centerstand and I heard this sad sound from the rear settling.... sigh. :head bang:

 

[joedrum]
