3. Gas, I love you buddy...but I cannot stand the look of choppers.
4. Sportsters are uglier than Choppers.
5. Your chop looks way cooler after the rebuild.

1. Thanks
2. In comparison I agree, but it does work.
3. Don't worry I don't like pink either! But I will still ride with ya any day!
4. They have their place and use.
5. Thanks!

And that is now more like a $50K bike now...

Mine too.

Yeah its alot... but thankfully I owe less than 35% of that.

Does the garage floor next to the lift count?

a few buddies showed up for lets see.... Honda jetting, AIH jetting and carb adjustment, new brake pads front and rear, and new brake fluid.

So I went from bike to bike, wrenched and gave directions...

Thanks Sgt. for recoganition for the help.

Chopper Nick... take your stupid air cleaner cover off so I can jet the damn carb!

Then another HD showed up... thankfully much like the wife's bike under the cover. The HD's were the only bikes out of the 5 that didn't need a wrench! There goes that old saying!!!

At the end of the day or allowed time the only thing that got done on my bike was making it worse but we got their bikes done. Oh well... another day tomorrow.

And sometimes there are other things on MY lift that even keep MY bike from getting to it. Then you just do the work where you can.

Needed to check some stuff on the front end... didn't show it... but pulled the fender, fork brace, and a few other things... nothing too bad.
