      Must have been the same day.

      Wasn't a long ride. Just wanted to make sure everything was working properly. Runs really well but the tach is lagging. I'll have to do a search on here for how to fix that. Never been into an 1150's before.

            So just so you guys know, I can't ride everyday here...it rained today, still 50 degrees though.
            So I had a garage day...my wife went shopping with her mom and my son was in the house all day working on a school project. And not much of a football fan either.
            First big job was to put on a rubber thingy on the engine, fell off I guess...lucky I had one on my parts bike.
            And oh yeah I had the valve cover polished too...magpie that I am. lol



            Then I re-organized some shelves and my bench etc...turned into re-organizing lots of stuff after that. lol

              Me again.








              Replaced the u/s gauge cluster that ProjectGS came with yesterday with a new one... took the bike out today to see how close my speedo calibration was... turns out it is pretty dang close!

                Hard to take a photo with a black bike and sunset...can't see much detail in either




                this was just a ride to the gas station....I need to fix a fuel leak before I do any real riding but I couldn't resist a drive around the block with this sunset.

                  Mark popped by with his great looking 1150 and we had a nice visit.



                  I put in a new battery (sealed no maintenance one...I hate the bs you have to through on our bikes to get a the battery) in the 83 1100 last night...And have not ridden it much lately so I took it our for a before supper ride. Of course I got wet on the way home...oh well I now have an excuse to wash the bike...lol

                          The best picture would have been you still on the bike! a little wet was it....sure like how you've done the bike, very nice.

                              Everyone will pay what they think is a fair price to be cool.
