Just ordered a new chain and sprocket kit, cant wait to get it in. Bout 2 days ago I lubed and adjusted the chain, rode to work fine, but on the way home I felt the chain kink/bump. got home to look and found some tight links. So I cant ride even though this week is supposed to be real nice. Oh well better safe than sorry!!!

Ill post pics when I install. BTW nice looking 94 malbojah

About time Malbo - I was having a hard time resisting the urge to say something

Well it was a ripping great day here but before I got to take off on a good run on my
black bike she started weeping green down at the water pump..... off with the fairing
...just had to tighten the hose clamp...... funny thing ..... both bikes seem to do this
every year in cooler weather !

Well long evenings with light now means major work on must do projects to get them
finished and out of way for riding season

1 ) Buell Pegs
2 ) Finish new twin Viper cans on both bikes and fabricate brackets for pipe covers
3 ) Finish the DanMoto 3 D bars on the 1993
4 ) Finish Install of full Givi kit on 1993 - Wingrack two E41's + E55
5 ) Add Admore Mini LED light unit to 1993
6 ) Make and install spool mounts for both bikes
7 ) Install awesome stainless hose "T"s I got from Dub

Then ride baby ride - no more projects until end of season.

Hey Sprock,
Did you already install the stainless 3 ways?
If so how do you like them?
