If the time comes, I'm gonna top off the fuel tank and add some seafoam (or whatever else I have) and hook it up to the tender.
I got a ride in on saturday, but it was pretty dam cold.

On the reloading.... yeah, double-charges are bad news.
I've got some fast burners that you could easily double up.
Don't drink and reload, folks.

Sorry to interrupt the little moment you guys are having here, but did someone mention they made up some classy aluminium brackets for the de-linked brakes?

All I did was drill a few holes in 1/4" plate and hit the edges with the grinder to take off any starp corners (and then of course I painted them black but to anyone who remembers what my bike looks like that is to be expected...)

any pics?

Yeah - get in line TBT made them for his bike - I'm awaiting the template to so I can
delink my 93 - linked brakes suck imo

But were all the sharing and caring types here so I'm sure TBT will share the info

I'll tell ya this when I saw his on the trip to Cape Breton - they looked 100% quality - quite like they were almost oem brackets

okay so back to little moments ~ ! lol

Noope Alum Silver

But then TBT's rims if I remember were blasted/stripped back alum silver with a coat of clear so it all looked good

or something like that
