Rode 225 miles yesterday on the 1100. Most miles on that thing in one day in more than a year.

It's about time! Maybe that little ride will spark a riding binge!

Yeah, would be nice. The bike needs tired BAAAAD though. She also just isn't running right down low. Can't tell if it is carburetion or electrical. Probably a little of both. Tires first, then I will see if I can sort out why she isn't really hitting like normal. I have already spent a lot of time one her to get her this far.

It's a good thing you enjoy wrenching!

Uh . . . yeah . . .

Good to see you shook off the dust and got in some time in the saddle!

**87gsxrnut** · 10-01-2005, 11:18 PM

Yeah, I needed to. I have feelers out right now for a used O/C 1100 or 1200 motor. Something I can toss into my race bike and do some trackdays while I fix the tranny.
