CT９０アップデート

まだ１００％じゃなけど、乗れるようになったから次のバイクに〜

次はxr５００かな。。

俺はこういうのが好きだけど．．皆さんはどうかな．．

模様とタイヤー

Moyou is the cutest poop eating dog ever. Old CT90 tires are perfect for small garden plots....right? Moyou just likes to sleep in them.....

Yogurt find

If you are vegan, love yogurt, and don't do so well with soy anymore, this is the best thing to happen to you since.......tofutti ice cream in the early 90's. . . . Smoothie life.....

I love food. I would eat all day if it didn't make me feel like crappy crapcicles.

Garage night.....

Ben, Grant, and the notorious G. U. N. stopped by for some motorbike fun. Get that clutch cable in there son! Making them work for it now.....

Later on Hutch and Tim stopped by and taught the boys a thing or two about a thing or two.
Ct90 got put back together and is ready for its new tires. (tomorrow!!!) Got it running today with the help of a little staring fluid and friend power. Still need my engine back from the shop and to make a seat and finish wiring the CL...... and the XR500 is looking really lonely.......by the time I get those all started I will have bought at least one more probably.....oh, and the baby dream is still in storage.....! I need a bigger garage....

Garage night should be every night! Can't wait for summer.......

Sometimes

you make money when you sell things on ebay. Sometimes you get screwed.

I just got this package back from Roma Italy, months later......and it cost me 80 dollars.....

It could not be delivered at the address I sent it to. . . . .

Don't ship international on ebay. Ebay will screw you.

Sometimes...

it's the small things in life that keep you going.

Georgetown market, 2.49. Plus the cash register girls weren't b-words for the first time EVER. (buttfaces)

Words of advice from my yogi detox tea

Those who live in the past limit their future.

----but you have to learn from the past or you are bound to repeat it, right?

Worked on wiring on the ct90, CL, and a check on Ryan's bike.

Step 2 in the cleaning of the ct90 tank is on, purchased lines and filters also.

Trying to mock up a new light on the CL....can't decide if I want to go battery-less or not. . . .

And right before bedtime used some old cb parts and made a little mirror for chimp........one step closer to legal....?

Moyou steez as always. The ultimate snoop........

tiresformiles

New rubber for the hardtail 350. The last rear tire smelled like mold.........

Always check your clearance before riding it too far.....felt like something was catching......
And one more cb500. Keep them tanks full-o-gas man! Carbsync is in order I think....not really sure.

ガレージ

Going to get 4 new tires tomorrow. I hope they don't have slow leaks.. I am going to ask them to put different tubes than they normally use. Biggest motorcycle tire stock in Indy, all installed with slow leaks....boo

The cl is getting internal wiring and a new seat among other things. I want to pop the engine in and ride when it comes back.....
Chimp tires smelled like mold. Bad sign....... Getting new ones!
Ct90 is also on the chopping block. I want to get this thing roadworthy soon. I already have a chain and the tank is getting the phosphorous treatment now.

Roast

Seitan potatoes carrots and cabbage. Kind of like my grandma used to make.

Craigslist

is the best/worst thing ever.

CT90. I have wanted one of these since Midohio last year. Couldn't pass it up.....

I bought it from a guy that I bought two cb350's from last year for 200 dollars....with titles... One of which became the 350 build I have been working on for a minute.

I guess he does antiques so I ended up looking through some of his stuff! He is working on restoring a ca77 305 dream. Looks like my ca95 on steriods...same color and everything....

From the front. I need new tires and tubes. Carb is new and it runs!

Really? Low miles......
Luggage rack is taaaaaight. Exhaust chrome is nice too. Need a new chain. I am going to keep it as stock as possible for a bit. I hope to have it ready for the road by midohio this year! I think Moyou approves my purchase.
I also found these in his garage and ended up getting them both (old train lights) and he threw in the crotch-rocket-looking headlights below for free. I might use them, you never know.....

These train lights were also moyou approved!


He said he will let me know when he comes across old bike like this. I am in trouble.....

Metal working

Still need a bandsaw and a welder.......

手術うけたばっかり

Don't look at me like that! Much better than having illegitimate little moyou's with one of the moron pit's in this hood! You know they ain't payin' no child support.......

俺が学校で教えている間、模様が妊娠しないように手術をうけた．

痛み止めも飲んでいるし、かなりぼーとしてる。

早く元気になって！

そして、その目で俺を見ないで！手術があなたのためだぞ！妊娠の方がこわいぞ！

Chimp

Needs new front tire for sure. . . . front brake? maybe..... Grips are going to change too.

Tank will get chrome side cover things and rubber knee pads like the CL. The seat is fine for now. I want to try to make on with less padding and a brown cover.
I need to make a good license plate holder and rework the wiring for the swithes and mount the tank different. I might put a MT bike speedo on this too. . . .

This is the first stage of "legal". I can ride it. Some stuff needs to be attached better. Front tire is sketchy. Still needs paint and cleaned and some of the wiring moved/redone but I can ride it down the street! As soon as the other engine is done and the CL is reworked this engine is coming out for a much needed rebuild too. My neighbors hate my bikes.........

Back to nature

The trees in my backyard have been beautiful lately.

Three P's: Plum, Peach, and Pear. I have big expectations for the plum this year......the peach killed it last year and the pear was my biggest tree when I planted them but almost died.....now it is getting bigger. I bet I won't get anything on it for at least another year or two.

Saturday

Cleaned an area to work, pulled the top off....

Everything looks good so far...nothing out of place....
Pistons and piston rings doing their job nicely....
Put it back together and guess what! Same problem. Why is it so hard to turn over and where the hell is my compression.....I am stupid. Second time I've had this apart...this time was easier but still....
Now it just sits on my work bench mocking me.......guess I'm going to have to pay somebody. They better agree to show me what I did wrong....or what is wrong....
This was the start of a 12 hour garage session on Saturday. I need to set a timer and stop after 6 so I can function the next day.

C110 tank, finally. . . .

These are small, skinny and kind of square. (like me I guess.....) I am not into the color though......need to take it to one of those places that takes all the rust off (and the paint) for 50 bucks....anybody know what i'm talking about?

New build update...

holes in the clutch cover just for fun.

What do you think? Is a centimeter enough clearance? SOOO close....
I think i will run that light on the side. Gotta look up the indiana motorcycle laws again....i think it is just the number plate that has to go on furthest point back.....
I have used this "gas tank" so many times in the last 2 years. Even loaned it out to friends. . . . . .
Check out the seat with the battery on it. I am running this with a battery eliminator but I wanted to start it for the first time like this....... ALL GOOD?
This is tougher to kick over than my cl........bad rebuild? better compression? hard to hold handlebars and kick? Probably a little bit of everything. Gave up for today. . . . . got it to backfire! (sounded like an explosion. Just about made ben piss his pants.....)

Dessie!

My favorite from this last weekend.
