Topics I have been thinking of –
*Bing Deeper Dive – we did a Carb tech day, but I learned this year that needles can need replacement even if a total rebuild is not needed. My /5 was running beautifully, but not getting the mileage I would have expected. Then riding with a friend, I was told I was putting out some black smoke on acceleration so it was likely running rich.. By the time of this tech day, I will have a few tanks and a few hundred miles to compare the difference and report out with the new leaner needles.
*Old Favorite – Spline Lube?? big project, but I have one I could stage in advance..
*Timing Chain Inspection and replacement?
*Long distance trip bike check – What would you do if you were setting out for a 20k trip to South America and back?
– reference the book “Two Wheels South” and see what they did and what in the end the encountered
