    Update on me...

    ... not that anyone cares but here is a small update:

    I am officially addicted to my motorcycle. I can't wait to get a bigger bike. In 3 months, I have gone 3k miles and some. About 1/3 of those were in twisties (zigzag or close to it) or sweepers (high speed turns), maybe 1/4 or so are group rides.

    I have already led a group and acted as a sweeper. I have also spent so much already... 1600 for the bike, 200 for tires, 400 - for a recent tune up (valve, plugs, and filter), ~300 for gear,

    I need to buy full leathers (300-500), new chain and sprocket (200+), new break pads (>100).

    I could have spent all that money on the car but I think all the experience has been priceless. And meeting other riders is awesome as well. :thumb:



    So thats what i've been doing for the past few months, what's everyone been upto?

    CLIFFS:
    bought a bike, spent lots of money, still need to spend lots of money, experience is priceless.

    Well, since you asked... I spent my day off at the junkyard... got some foglights, looking on how to put them on, and I also took the red off my turn signals, it was starting to fade. I'm gonna repaint them on Friday most likely.

    Yah, the AE82 needs some attn as well. Im can't remember the last time belts were changed, and plugs and wires, and got the valves checked.

    I should be able to do the plugs, wires and valve adj.
