what did you do today

[detdrbuzzard]

did an oil change ( about 1500 miles late for me ) on the Mighty ST 1300

Went out along the eastern shore of Lake Michigan the Sunday before last and snapped this photo.

And one from yesterday.

Taking a break from troubleshooting the '85 1200. Labeling some parts bins and cases. Always a challenge to pick the right one, instead of many. Have more to do, but this is a start:

Put rear brake pads on the wife's 09 Impala

Since selling the Slug, I have only been going through my extra parts boxes and working on getting ready to sell of any parts worth selling (or giving away). The rest of my time has been spent keeping this 67 year old girl running! Had the engine overhauled last year and I completed a full conversion from a 6 volt system to a 12 volt system including a complete rewiring of the entire system.

Of course, I had to create a new one line diagram to follow my new wiring:

Very nice Gerry. You are a wiring guru.

Went for a little 123 mile leaf peepin ride today, colors still aren't there yet

 

[Old Fogey]

Took piles of bolts and nuts and electrical connectors and other miscellaneous stuff and sorted it out and hot glued one of each piece on each drawer so at a glimpse I know what drawer has what.

Now that's a smart idea!

it's that time of year again

I took my new puppy for a ride.

I put mine to bed for the winter this past weekend. I've used the same system for a couple of decades. Fill the tank, add Stabil (2 oz), close petcock and run carbs dry (adding choke as needed to the bitter end), up on center stand, attach battery tender, bike cover.

I feel sorry for everyone that lives up North. I'd hate to live somewhere where I couldn't ride all year around.

For me, winterizing means making sure the anti-freeze is good and wearing warmer clothing to ride.

 

[Rednaxs60]

Me too, but it is time to do maintenance, projects and get ready for the next season.

Please don't feel sorry for us. I can (if I choose) ride 12 months a year. When I was younger, my CB 750 was my only vehicle for over two years, in Boston, commuting 40 miles round trip daily. Now that I'm older, I'm a little bit pickier about the weather, but still can ride any time. And since I'm retired, I can go where it's warmer if I want to. The Wing does go on the maintainer and it runs fine with Sta-bil in its veins. I'll drag it out on good days
Peace
