fiddy days

[Jeff]

50 days until we're (midwest) on the track.  Here's what I've got left.  How about you?

* New bike in garage, still ripped apart.
* Waiting for...
      - Exhaust
      - Brake lines
      - Damper return
      - New damper mounting kit
      - Bodywork
      - Quickshifter
      - Slipper clutch
      - Another chain
      - Misc gearing
* Need to get some minor motor work done
* Need to get bodywork painted (decide on scheme)
* Waiting patiently for a *MAJOR* delivery which will determine if I have to rework my trailer or not.

Ugh...  I guess I should throw this all into a project plan.

Bike #1
1) Completely flush front brakes and replace the broken resivour
2) Setup a new exhaust hanger
3) Mod subframe to accomodate new tail section
4) Repair upper sand and repaint.
5) Repair tank sand and repaint
6) Repeat for lower
7) Change tires
8) Change Oil

Bike #2
1) Paint number plates on, and figure out why lower doesn't clear the exhaust
2) Install Jet Kit.
3) Eliminate Street Parts, and put solo tail on.
4) Safety Wire
5) Change Oil
6) Put new rear shock on
7) Change Tires

I have bike #1 tore down but not much more. I need to get my butt in gear.

I'm just getting a kick that y'all are listing what needs to be done rather than doing it.  :o ::) ;)

Such little tasks and so much time you have...

Our first race weekend is THIS weekend, we will be on track Friday. I'm taking a day off work tomorrow to do a bottom end rebuild on my motor!  Here's what I'm doing the next couple days.

Bike 1: My TZ
Drop engine, spilt cases, replace crankshaft and top end.
Repair crash damage from a couple weeks ago  :-[.
See how many heat cycles I can get on it by Friday.

Bike 2: My CR
Pretty much ready to go.  Threw on new white plates last weekend.  It's so nice to have a bike that requires no paint, just buy new plastic.

Bike 3: My wife's MZ
Replaced top end / lapped valves last Sunday.  Engine is in, just need to hook everything up, hope it starts.

Bike 4: My wife's R6
I actually rebuilt that engine way back in January.  Painted last week, just about ready to go.

Ah, the last minute push  ;D

-z.

   Yea, yea,  ;D    I need to dig my trailer outta the snow to get to the bikes first too!   Hopefully I'll at least have the bodywork painted this weekend....

That and sometimes we make the mistake of inviting friends over to help. Well anyway we can't just take advantage of our friends so we pay them in beer. Well when there is beer, leave it to say you wind up looking at the bike and drinking beer more than actually working on the bike.

We're racing in 4 days... bike's already in the trailer  ;D

[Jeff]

Well, yeah, me too.  Just on a different surface...  My medium is a bit colder and slicker than yours.

Jeff,

You are racing the ice bike? Or you mean just riding? We have been ice riding every weekend having tons of fun, but I would like to do a sanctioned race to see how I stack up overall. The one thing though is that I would much rather it be in a TT course, not an oval.

4 days and counting....

Bike on trailer, ready to go.... just wish I could get Friday off....  >:(
