Dave came in last night with approximately 1700lb. of gear strapped to the back of the bike. And I promptly ran it up to Shoreline to pick up my GSXR's exhaust. The '91 wants to say that it is sick and tired of heavy things and wants to carry only light loads from here on out. But it has to carry Dave for the rest of today. We're negotiating on that score. I promised it a nice gasket replacement and valve adjustment if it would be good for the rest of the day, and possibly a paint job for continued good behavior.
I never thought you left the tribe. Others may have doubted, but not me. ;)
how many bikes do you go through in a year.
I still havn't forgiven you for shortchanging me on my "potential" trip.
:x :guns:
I guess I should have logged in yesterday to see if he was around... I had very little to do today. :roll:
See Told ya ... LOok in your post on selling it, and May have even suggested an old GS ... I'll check too ...
Cool.
Srinath.
You can have the beer that Dave left in the fridge.

My errand is piddling in comparison.

It was lowered at some point in the past. That'd be fine, but the forks have about 3/4" of travel. I'll see whazzup with that. It's actually OK for me, though - I only bottomed out on big bumps. It sounds like there's an exhaust leak, and there's certainly an oil leak from the valve cover. That might be the source of the odd smell. I'm just going to pull it apart, check the valves, replace gaskets, and, since they're so cheap, replace the jets. Put something on the centerstand that holds it off of the chain better than my heel does. Maybe repaint it. I dunno why the F Suzuki thought white wheels were ever a good idea.
OK You have been had ... Not by the bike or anything ... but that's not Davipu ... also ... he left beer in the fridge ... as in ... not drunk beer ... Yea ... Its an imposter ... not davipu ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Yeah, I was going to ask him if he was feeling OK... then I realized that he would be drinking more if he weren't. :P
Yeah, he's to cheery in the picture to be Davipu.

Holy zombie thread, Batman!
Anyway, that bike is now my bike.

OMFG I thought that was 'shopped at first.
What the hell is wrong with you kids?
The heaviest i get is a backpack stuffed with food for a few days.
You haven't done the 24 pack between your legs and elbows?
I think the difference between ALL YOUR LIFE'S POSSESSIONS, and a 24 pack is rather large....
LOLOLOLOLOL
I have 25 lbs worth of crap jammed in my Givi top case as we speak... Plus the tank bag...
But, yeah... Davipu is OUT OF HIS MIND when it comes to loading a bike. :laugh:
you had 1700lb of shite on the back of your gs500..... KOOL i didnt think it would be able to carry that much
