Yeah, I talked to Sam. Apparently I need to drive up 78 until I see a little tree and a driveway that normally has an ugly car in it but doesn't today. Hey, since I'm coming over to your house anyway, I'll buy those bearings off you instead of making another stop. |

Seems like the women like to fish more then the men. I hope to get to go this weekend. Cannot fish the creeks yet so I plan on hitting Winfield Scott. Some trout and channel cats sure would be good. |

Does anyone have a set of knee sliders they aren't using? I have burned mine up and being broke I can't afford new ones so I thought I would see if anyone had some they would part with. I miss that leaned over feeling! Thanks everyone. |

Anyone in the group good with reshaping a seat. I need to chop some of the back off the Aprilia's passenger seat. I'm fitting down the current gen Mille tail to my Tuono and it interferes with the brakelight which has a rise to it. You can see where the brake light ends and how much of the seat rests on it.

Well, we had fun tonight, and learned a few things about bearings. This is how the right side bearing looked after the wheel came off. The seal appears to have popped off, flinging all the grease out. The seal is resting on one of the spacers that allows the XB wheel to fit on the M2 swingarm with the M2 axle. The diameter of the M2 axle is too small, and the XB rim is too narrow.
Why does my wheel have "race use only" engraved on it?"
The XB wheels need a different bearing puller tool than the M2 wheels. With the adaptor spacers, I actually would've needed both. This is neither.
Doh. As it turns out, if you hit a rim with a hammer enough times, it breaks.

There is a lip that the bearing sits in, I did not know there was a lip, well I got out a socket that fit the sleeve and it started putting marks on the sleeve, so I got a bigger socket, well that pushed on the lip of wheel behind the bearing and broke. S&^t happens so Sanchez is getting a new wheel. What you see in the pic is the bad bearing with the inner race removed and the grease seal is still in there, that is why I could not see the lip. |

If we all get on our Buells and ride with the rotation of the earth fast enough... Maybe, we can turn back time far enough to tell New 12r that there is a lip under that bearing. |

Alright, Glitch, it's all you! You're going to have to fly around the world fast enough to reverse time. If that doesn't work, try slingshotting around the sun. |

Just got back, only to find that while I can rock the world, it seems the time/space continuum only repeats time events, rather than allowing for change, I can repeat the past, I just can't change anything, damnit! Sorry fellas, I did give it my best though. |
