Re: Picked up my annual "Winter Project".

There are two more document-worthy (if you're REALLY desperate for entertainment...) projects in the works. 1 - The master cylinder has a sight glass so you can check fluid level without removing the cover. It's plastic, crazed and leaking and the mounting ring is rusted out. I was pointed to some r...

Re: Picked up my annual "Winter Project".

Today's task was to try out an idea I had to replace the missing side panels on the bike. They ARE available used...for $200...per side... :o :shock: The CFO here at Cheap Charlie's Motorcycle Emporium ain't gonna go for that. On a rare and valuable bike? Sure. On a mass-produced Honda that won't re...

Re: New ATF rule comment period is ending

I'm fine with posting that here.

With the ATF...not so much...they need to be reined in, along with a host of other government agencies.

Re: Picked up my annual "Winter Project".

https://youtu.be/rUFjdm8hiP0?si=1ZgpXV_rz9zhmCM3 Link to the video of first start on the project. Apologies for the noise, had a fan running to clear the fumes out of the shop. Also just a quick and dirty hand-held phone video so not great quality. So far I've rebuilt the carbs, replaced all the o ...

Got the big monitor set up, but may have to rethink the positioning. It's pretty close to the lathe (dust/debris) and right in front of the thermostat (may affect set point). Problem is, there's not a better place for it that leaps to mind...

Geeking out

I've bitched as much as anyone about technology, but some aspects of it are so handy, I'd hate to do without. Firstly, I bought a new TV as the old one was having software issues with the streaming apps and pissing me off, so I replaced it. The new one works perfectly AND has built-in bluetooth. As ...

Re: NAVY Federal Credit Union

I have since the 80's.

Only bitch I've ever had is the last time I applied for a Home Equity loan and that wasn't really their fault - the rules changed.

Re: Veterans Administration Clinic

I see all the same things at the clinic I use. Most of all, they do an excellent job of time management. Never waited past the appointment time and about half the time get in early. VERY pleased with the care.
