Yammer Dan Posted May 23, 2009 Share #1 Posted May 23, 2009 Got her out a little this evening. Finished blowing bottom out of exhaust chamber!! Make as much noise as my neighbor's Hardley. But she is running and going down the road without any problems. Little shake if you turn loose of the bars at 50 mph. Probally that Brickstone on the front. Patched that exhaust chamber and those Jardines really sounded sweet for about 15 miles. Then POW!!! Not ment for me to own a pretty (no scratches) or a quiet bike. But 2nd gear will crank out 70 mph pretty quick. I'll shut up now. Still pretty pumped. Only got in about 40 miles. Maybe a night ride?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbrood Posted May 24, 2009 Share #2 Posted May 24, 2009 Dan, Glad to hear thet the UGLY beast is back on the road. It can sure be a lot of "little things" that can keep them silent, but when they are ready to go, they sure let you know! Now your neighbors know!
