I don't start getting ready until about a week before the meet :o


It just occured to me it's time to at least go down to the shop and look at the bikes.

Yep, H2 just like I left it. Sits for months; starts on the 4th kick; no real mileage since last mainetenance session; tighten some bolts and ride.
ZRX - I've been riding this one; clean, chain service, oil and filter change; maybe coolant change; tighten bolts
Wow that will be easy.

Wait, the new registartion stciker is for the H2 which has another year to go on the existing sticker. My fault for trusting the DMV.

ZRX - HAS HAD A DEAD PLATE FOR THE LAST 10 MONTHS!
How could I ever have gotten away with this?
I did renew it but never got the card or the decal.

DMV has kiosks for renewal.
10 minutes and $5 later and I'm done.
Print a new insurance card online in 5 minutes.

Something very wrong must be about to happen....

Ben is ready. I'm not sure who will carry my injector oil now :|


Tuono??


Yes sir. He went all out!

It is not looking good for us to make it this year though. Younger son is having some health issues. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

Ben let me ride the Tuono today. I call it the Ono for short. It may just a little faster than my Yamaha twins :o

I will bring my big channel locks and a good pair of needle nose vise grips. We can make short work of the offending tooth :wtf:
