Be careful that you start by pulling the lower timing cover and using a zip tie to keep the timing chain from moving around down there. The timing cover gasket had a slight redesign after your bike was made, so a new one will work better than what you have for a few bucks. If you haven't put...

I enjoy watching Kevin Baxter in YouTube, who regularly rebuilds Harley motors with well under 100,000 miles with pretty serious engine issues. He is very busy.

Bed bugs cost extra!

Kawasaki also axed the Concours, so this isn't shocking. For shaft driven sport-touring bikes, it's down to BMW, the Tiger 1200 GT, and the Guzzi Mandello.

I expect to see that Buell down there...

This sounds like a challenge.

I sure wish we could talk you out of retirement. I still haven't found anyone willing to do small moto paint jobs in my area.

Booked my room!

See you all tomorrow! Everybody wish Harper a happy birthday too.

I plan to bring a laptop and I can toss an HDMI cable in with it. If the TV is of legal drinking age, that could be more of a challenge than I can overcome.

I will be there for dinner. I bought a bike to leave at a family member's house in Bend, so I get the easy trip down.
