Spring Break Ride in Minnesota?

[DanTheMan]

Is the ice out on Mille Lacs yet ?

Not yet. Gull is still iced over too. They're still taking atvs out on the bays in Leech Lake.

Just got done rebuilding forks, carbs, made one shim adjustment, the bike is ready for the ride pretty much as long as the petcock holds out (it's iffy, never should have tried switching it to prime). Any more MN riders out there, our central meeting point for Thursday is in Page, a blip on the road between Milace and Onamia. I'm figuring I'll be there around 9:30 or so. I'll have a metal flek silver helmet, red jacket, and probably be sitting around drinking coffee.

Well, there will be two of us there. Hard to miss my blue 79 750L. I have a silver helmet as well, and a black riding jacket (might have to lose it if it is as warm as today.

I tried getting Terry's bike up and running today but it looks like he will have to wait. He has the exact same bike as I do. Put in new coils and got her running well but it looks like the petcock is on its way out. Could be other issues but we won't have time to address them all.

I was so excited we got all four of his cylinders firing that I accidently touched the pipe to long when I was checking to see if it was firing Got a nice burn on my middle three fingers. I try not to do that more than once a riding season

Dan, see up near Milaca.

I'm game if people are headed south and I have time. I don't check the forum that often so feel free to email me at gabe@rallybimmer.com
Does anybody arround have a shim collection? I am thinking of adjusting my 78 750 as it has never been done since I bought it...and who knows before that.
thanks all!

Wheres Pine River i relation to the Twin Cities? Have been talking about riding out that way this summer. My buddy Scot Janes andme just did a frame up restore of a 78 750E this winter and his folks live in Eden Prarrie. I rode out there 6 years ago on my Shadow with them him and his brother. Maybe if we come we can hook up and kick the tires a bit.

Click on the post that is one before yours. Dan posted a link to a map that showed our route and it shows Pine River in relation to the Twin Cities.

I live in White Bear Lake. Gimmee a holler if you come this way.
