34 this morning. Pretty nice back home at noon. Gonna take wife's "fair weather" 950 tourer out this afternoon to freshen up the gas in the tank.
Dittos on not waiting on the weatherman. Of course that's easier to say in N Texas!

I moved my Harley FL today started it up, put it on a trailer, took it to it's new home!
The KZ's are still sitting in the dining room, 2 engines in the garage. Took back
7 tote bins of aluminum, side covers, cases, bad heads, stock pistons no one wanted, couple of fork legs, rims and some stupid Honda 750 parts that sat for a few years. 353 pounds of aluminum! Left with $190 bucks and less stuff to move!

Getting started from a dead stop takes a little practice, but is easily learned.
Once had a clutch cable break en-route to the inspection station, but persevered on through as if nothing was wrong, passed with flying colors, and got my sticker! :lol:
Good Fortune!

It's perfectly okay to ride and shift gears without using the clutch.bromz wrote: well ride home sucked. My clutch cable broke. went and got a trailer and abuddy helped me load it. It was a tilt trailer and before i could get the pin in my buddy walked off and off went the bike on its side and in the mud! I think all that broke was a highway peg. could have been worse
