Man, I'm I good.

Sam Faraone brought his bike over for me to work on it. You know how much I hate doing that. It's the bike I liked so much I bought one just like it. They are exactly the same except mine is a little newer.

Monday it would not start. Checked the battery and it had low voltage even after being driven the day before. Found the wiring was wrong. Rewired the alternator/regulator circuit so the battery gets charged. Starts right up now.

Tuesday Linda and I went for a ride on both bikes. I was on Sam's. We drove to the credit union on Montana then up 54 and back to the house on Loop 375. I could hardly keep up with Linda. On the Loop it would only go 75. (Me Speed?). I didn't like much about it.

So I started to work on it. Both front hand levers are out too far to reach. Fixed that. The clutch was hard to pull, lubed the cable and pivots. The front brakes didn't work at all when he bought it and were still hard to pull. Found the cruise control bracket was in the way. Eliminated a unnecessary spring. Now they are almost too sensitive, 1 finger stops. Adjusted more levers to make it safer.

On to the carbs. Had to pull them out again. Real pain. But found they were not sych'ed, floats were uneven, needles too high, and loose bolts. I prayed they would be better after I got them in. BUT I put them in backwards and had to take them out again, I was....

Got it back together, it didn't start too good. Then ran better after a minute. Took it up the street and what a difference. It has 30 more hp. Went out on to the Loop and got it up to 95!

It's real fast now, maybe faster than mine. It's great, drove it out Montana today. At 80+mph the front tire vibrates so I think that's all it needs to be perfect. Sam you want to trade it for a slightly used 91 Suzuki 1100 with only 97,400 miles?

Now about those noisy mufflers!!!!
