Sorry to rain on anyone's parade here. If we work on the bikes in my shop we'll have to drink after the work is done. No working while drinking.  That's OK in your own garage or carport but I have to be strict about what goes on in the shop. Sorry about that.

HERESY!!

No working while drinking.

I have a funny story about that.
Well not funny at the time, but funny now that the damage has been corrected. 

Maybe I should have phrased it "No drinking while working". 

But hey, if it's a good story, I'm pretty sure the group wouldn't mind hearing it.

I have managed to reserve Saturday, 27 September as a day of no work, so's I can work.  On the bike. I think this is a good thing.  Tedrow, you planning on hitting your suspension as well?

Oh, and at least a few beers on me. Even if it has to be after we're done.

that's ok... I'll just smuggle beers in my tummy...

Story told partly with pictures. Luckily it has a happy ending.

Somehow after a few bottles, you begin to get really cavalier about reassembling things. Luckily I did the brakes first (still sober), and ended with the clutch IIRC.

That's what the clutch on my 999 looked like when I took it apart a year and a half ago. Whoever had worked on it previously did the same bonehead move putting that friction disc on the outside. Badda Boo, Badda Bing -- just like yours it was scored all over the place. I was putting on a Speedymoto pressure plate & cover anyway -- I just had too add a set of clutch plates.

Although I don't have a slipper clutch on the Monster I did just get a Surflex clutch kit for it. Still in the plastic wrap until this Saturday. Whee!

make the beast with two backsBERRIES!!!!




y'all have fun bolting on jebus' new shiny next weekend.



I am so... I can't even think of the adjective right now.

and I gotta do laundry.

ah, make the beast with two backs it. I'll just buy some socks after work, I don't feel like it.

or maybe the lean pocket I had for lunch will make me sick and die. gooooo vendy gods!

Poopbuttons!  Can't you just leave early?  Chop off a finger?  Kill the supe?

I should just be a good lil'whore, shut my mouth, and take the money.
