    I'm a day and a half behind, but I FINALLY adjusted the carbies on the vtr, lifted the needles by an o-ring. No more misfiring on the highway.
    Also put the pw80 mostly back together. I lost the flywheel key, then found it, then found it didn't fit the new crank. Hammer?

    Still need to do fork seals on the vtr, though.

    The rain dried up not long after posting before so i went out for a ride, i was about 30 min's away from home when it started raining again, then it poured down.
    Turned around and come back home, at least the bike got a wash i guess

    Finally got enough energy after my big ride south to wash the splattered insects, mud from road works and chain fling off the 650TK.
    Took Risky's FZR for a run around the block to be sure everything worked and cracked a cider in celebration.

    I rode mine!!! I took it off the lift, shoved it out the shop door and gave it hell. The Slingshot has exceeded my expectations even though there's more to do on it. Thanks to all for their help and encouragement, for it made my efforts much easier and more enjoyable. It wasn't work...Bab

    Had a few guests of honour on some work bikes. A quick spray with brake clean and they are no more, works better than bug spray and no need to light em up.

    Tested out the contour roam 3 camera I bought, just a few stills. Bit shaky on the helmet with video, will have to get a few more sticky mounts and put on the fairing
