Labor Weekend Colorado trip
« on: July 29, 2009, 06:30:29 AM »
Going from Denver to Grand Junction for the weekend.   Camping while there.  Anyone can go along if they like if they want to put up with my smoking 650.

I have stuck some on the bike but they dont do much good.  The ones on the engine just make it worse.

OK we will need bug spray.  Put new valve seals in it and seems to have stoped the smoking.  Wasnt to warm out today for the shakedown but seemed better.  Now if the rest was put back together right.
