    Have you ever had a flat tire?

    After seeing most every pump known to man fail, I carry a large Harbor Freight pump. Never liked the mushrooms, staying with sticky strings.

    Block off plate work around

    The block off plates are sexy, although hidden under the tank. Clean the port tubes, take some orange wire nuts and epoxy them in. I put rubber tape over the top, just because. Buy some plates when WynPro catches up.

    To grease . . . or not to grease . . . that is the ?

    Splines lubed with high percentage Moly grease. (search) WD-40 will absorb moisture and rust, thin coating of grease on axles. Reminded of coating a high dollar Porsche lightened racing pressure plate with WD-40. Opened the plastic bag to a rusted surface.

    Michelin Road 5 coming to a store near you...soon!

    Hey, I didn't take it there... BJ can be motivational. My wife was serious about curtain rods. In front of my buddy she said, put up the curtain rods and I'll give you a BJ before and after. Buddy said to my wife, can you call my wife? He called later, was that for real?? Been married 35 years.

    Winter Storage

    Oh... check the airbox for mice. Back when my CBR stayed in a shed, I had to put screens on the snorkles to the air box. Acorns were bouncing around and I thought the top end was going bad.
