I'm supposed to get a little more $ with this April's pay at the end of the month, after a year I am getting a raise . . . not much, but, something.

Whats on second. 


Carlos the kick stand pad is coming your way. It has a little oil & dirt on it that I didnt bother to clean though. If you don't like it then tough. 

Shakedown run went fine!  Double checking fueling and gonna take another short ride.  With earplugs.

it has oil and dirt from Oregon?! Why would I care? Why would I not like it? I have Formula 89 degreaser, so, I can clean it . . .

The dirt is from California (as if that makes any difference) i would just pop it in the dishwasher.

Oh, you mean me in my house !!! got it . .  but, no power sprayer or metal steam box . . . just cold water . . .

This is how Gina is looking, had to re-install the coffin clutch master, rcs should be back on by this weekend:

It has the Ducabike rearsets installed, rear brake working
Mono posto CF seat
Only 1 bar end mirror, someone I don't know took the other one, chinese rizoma knock off

Looks great, Carlos!

Great looking bike!  I like the retro Ducati n the tank too!

Back from another ride after making a very slight fueling adjustment.  Two unintentional wheelies (we're talking a carbed M750, not exactly a wheelie king of a bike or rider for that matter) later I think it's pretty good.

Uploading videos to Youtube from my new mount location.  If the EVER get uploaded, I'll share them.  Youtube is SLOW on uploads it seems.

It is going to be so good looking with that Ducati kick staand thing. 

Thanks guys . . . the Alpina wheels are already with me at home, friend who is doing the ADSS powder coating[almost free] I am not hurrying up; when it is done, the following changes will come:

replace metal DSS with ADSS pc black
install adjustable height rod, custom made, I had install it once but, took it down
install of 749 rear shock
install Alpina spoked wheels[all black] in OEM sizes, 3.5"/4.5"[last one]
lower gauges
will purchase, but only install for shows, Rizoma Retro bar end mirrors, will get another chinese set for daily use, would get real pissed if someone took the Rizoma . . .
oh, and new 14/48 DID rivet style gold chain with JT fr&rr sprockets . . .

Now, to continue with work, which pays for all of these nice things and others

Dilemma, job offer, out of the blue, technically more challenging and interesting, $10K less pay, ( 90k vs 80k ) same conditions, car, phone laptop etc. Working with a guy I know well and respect. Contract may end here August 31 so I could be out of a job then.
So stick around and see what happens and remain bored, or go back to what I know I'm good at?
Writing this down, I think I may have just convinced myself which way to jump.
