HEY! I recognize that bike!------

Exact same bike tc, no screen and bog standard except for a pair of slip on mufflers.
You obviously happy with yours, had it long?
Any problems with it?

Well since you all are showing off your 100th anniversary bikes, here's my Superglide Sport.

I’ve had it for 15 years or so. Had more than 10 bikes come and go. I like to buy them cheap in the winter then fix them and sell em. But usually have 3 riders in the garage. But this one stays. No problems but I’ve really kicked up the horsepower on it. Really no problems. But I rebuild motors so it really isn’t a problem. No slip on for this one. Not even a baffle. Let’s the neighbors know when I’m heading out. They would rather one of the other bikes on early mornings

Yea!


I just checked the weather forecast and a week from Monday the temps will be 50 F. + everyday so I can start riding my motorcycle !

Motorcycle riding.... the best form of social distancing I can think of.

You get to breathe fresh air also.........

I spent today working on my bike .

Last week i changed the spark plugs, oil change/filter.

Today i fitted new chain & sprockets, Brake pads, two sets on the front and one on the rear. I took a rear brake disc from my old bike (write off) and fitted it to my current bike. I use HH EBC pads which contain metal parts which eat through the discs but give great performance, hence i have to change the discs every now n then. I also clean and restore the pistons and calipers when i change pads. New pads last me 3 months . Tyres, 4 months..

That work would take a garage an hour or two..It took me all day. I did wash the bike also and test drove it..
Were good to go now

Snowed this morning on my way to work. Will be a while before I get at the bike

Just woke up an oldie from a long slumber. A friend built it and rode it twice. Traded him out of it.
'78 PE 250 with total '79 RM suspension. Circle F pipe with FMF ISDT arrestor and Trail Tech computer.
Everything is fresh. Maybe I will go wake-up the neighborhood in the morning about 9.
Especially since I know everyone will be home!

Had a pe 175 2 smoke back in the day, and a mate had the rm 250.
Don't end up on your butt looking at the sky Sharpton, was quite easy to do as I recall...
