It's possible that priorities are a-changing and the bike will take longer to get done ......Comment

Oh man! What if I didn't catch her?Originally posted by TooManyToys View PostSounds like you better hurry up and finish that motorcycle so you take her for a ride on it.
And do you think she tripped by accident?

Priorities haven't changed at all. I haven't been more motivated to finish this bike! And the girl's also a wrencher!
Let's get back on topic. I gotta go out and buy some oil. I will try looking for Rotella 15w-40 (right?) but so far I couldn't find it anywhere. I may settle with Castrol 10w-40 oil. $3.99 a bottle and I think I would need 4 of them. And I do know about the Energy Conserving thingy.Comment

Right on!Originally posted by cowboyup3371 View Post
Finally got around to uploading pictures.
Z1 SS bolt kit.
Fuel hose. A bit small but it fit. The good thing about this is that it is a nice and tight seal. The bad thing (maybe) is that less fuel would get to the carbs??? I don't think it would make a difference though...
And the bottom end gasket kit. The brand is Cometic. Any good?
And finally, 15w-40 Rotella oil.
I will wait for my new to me stator cover to get here before I install any of this stuff. Should be here tomorrow or Tuesday.Comment
