Title: What to do on a Saturday?
Post by: aviationfred on March 28, 2015, 07:46:32 AM
Today the temps are scheduled to be in the mid 70's. Where will I be spending the majority of the day...... At work... :diablo:

I hear ya.
I've got brakes all the way around, and a front hub bearing assembly to do on a co-worker's Olds Silhouette van. (getting paid for that job)
Then I have to replace the alternator in my Jeep.
Then possibly help the next door neighbor fix his son's dirt-bike............

I won't be riding today.  :empathy:

Helped a fellow FJ member fix his V Star. To windy and cold today to do much riding anyhow.  On my way down the road to the Yamaha dealer to get a valve  keeper/key..... Yea I lost one... I assumed it would turn up but no luck.. After I buy one it will show up I am sure.

This evening I have been working on the RZ500 fender mounting. Got the mounting figured out so that it is nice and secure.

Saturday was yesterday here.  So i can tell you what i did..
Listened to the footy on the radio and had a beer.
In between that i was doing some laundry, just like the karate kid.  Wash one, Drink one.
In between that i was de dusting some bikes, just like the karate kid . Wipe one, Drink one.

A good day was had by me.  Even found a spare 5 minutes to change the rear brake fluid.

Took my first real ride on the new FJ.  Speed limits were continously and hugely violated.  Literally laughing in my helmet.

Sounds dangerous to me.
I`d of ended up with frothy brakes and hydraulics that could lift two tals and a blanket! (not so sure tha slave would survive either!)     :drinks:
