Smoke Out closing in

95 more days... Dirty's bike is in a million pieces, we have no route planned, no reservations made for any hotels or campsites, I have no rain gear, and none of us know how the hell we are gonna pay for any of this.

So we are running right on schedule. See you in New Mexico (or anywhere we run out of money or break down) !!!

Smoke Out West 11!

So there is 5 months and 20 days left til the next adventure south! looks like I got Skin Flint on board, and I am still working on Dirty! I figure by the 100th time of me asking and harrasing him, he will give up and say yes. looks like we are gonna push it this year and stick to around 550 miles a day. last year me and Dirty hit some weather and bitching out moments, so we didn't stick to the plan. we still made it, but had a couple longer days to catch up.

so this year is doing it on a budget year, so Skin Flint is the best guy to travel with! gonna be cold Keystone Light and dollar menu all the way!

Smoke Out West 11!

Before...

After!!!

You can see a little bit of the old color on the edges, but by the time I drop it a few times, it won't matter anyway. now I just have to send it out to Hellmutts and get the liner put in!

big pile of 1982 fun!

before...

after

sounds pretty good. I am gonna rework them and use em'!

oil tank cleaned up pretty good

like the solid polished for back. Double D brought over a 21" spoke for front. traded for the old mag set up I had.

tranny was in good shape. no leaks. just gotta find me a kickstart and hit up fab Kevin for jockey set up

suprised to find factory electronic ignition. good for now.

I can use most of the old shit again.
