Took carbs off in late December, and cleaned/dipped them. GOt them back on a couple weeks ago and had multiple problems that have been working on (with assitance from some fine folk here on GSR). Finally got them balanced and seemily running well just the other day. (See thread in Carb/Fuel about that endever.)
But has been unseasonalble cold, so havent gone out for a test ride.
Well, this morning was upper 30s, so time for test ride. Headed out and ran some local roads then ran up and down a state highway.
And I saw that all is good. BUt that is not the point of this story.
After that I went out for breakfast.
After breakfast I Rode down by the river and the boardwalk.
And then rode down by the pier and the beach.
Stopped to look at the lake. Real calm today.
Look at the small fishing boats out there.
Man, those guys must have got up early, and man, it must have been cold when they put in.
Gee, its about 9:00 am, maybe not even 40 degrees yet, and those guys are out there.
Man, wonder how much time and effort they must have put in to be able to go out on one of these first nice days of spring.
Seems like they would have had better things to do, like yard work on the lawn or things around the house. But, they are spending the first nice day of spring out on a boat trying to catch some stupid fish.
And they are all in one area, must be they so seroius about this that they know where certain fish are at certain times. Man, what fanatics.
Well, I didnt stay very long. Bike is running better now, But Now I can attend to some annoying rattle/buzz in the fairing. I think it is the right mirror - again.
