ya, I know it's 4am
« on: April 12, 2010, 01:12:39 AM »
But i just adjusted my tappets and replaced a cracked left hand control switch because the clutch lever was starting to work the crack bigger. kind of a big job because the little screws inside didnt wanna come out of the inside of the controls, plus my mirror that mounts there didnt want to screw back in in the right way. Finally got it all done, and wanted to make sure i didnt mess up my clutch engagement adjustments, so i took it for a literally 45 second trip around the tiny block, and wouldnt ya know it? cop stopped me and asked where my eye protection was. I explained how i had just done a tn of work and was in the parking lot checking the clutch. He said he believed me, then asked more questions about what I was doing to the bike than most of my friends put together hahaha, he had me talking to him about it for 20 mins! Weird night.

I guess at 4am anyone on a bike is subject to police inspection.
This project started in confusion and will end in disarray.

I know, my lack of eye protection for 45 seconds shows that I'm armed and dangerous!
