Its happened, the garage has a new addition

The steam from my bike was coming from the blown gasket spewing coolant onto the header pipe... But I can't wait to get everything reassembled and break it all in. My favorite part of the break in is the balls to the walls run with the WOT

I'm sorry my mechanical knowledge is sketchy at best, the WOT? You've only got about 5 days to go, happy screaming

WOT - Wide Open Throttle  And happy screaming to you as well

I got my tank, that was one of the best rides ever... Unfortunately the previous owner (for some bizzare reason) put a dual sport tire on the front.... When riding in soft dirt, that doesn't hook up very well. At all. When I lean't her over a little too far the front just washed right out and I lost my clutch perch screw, it must have been really loose for that to happen. No biggie I've got a cold so I was getting very worn out anyway. Funny, I went back home to take my knee guards off cos they were giving me heaps (I really need some socks) and when I went back down that was when I dumped it, I'm glad it was slow and I'm not out of the game now for a knee injury, that would make me swear alot. Did you get your cylinder today? Its the 9th in Australia

I did  It came in a day earlier. I got it all installed and I was really happy with the work they did, it looked like I took a brand new cylinder out of the box  But I still have to lock tight all the bolts and then its break in time 

[Stusmoke]

Going over the bolts is a tedious process, I wish you luck! I took me a stupidly long time to get my baby back into its proper shape! Between me sucking at using a socket set and the plastics just be a pain in the ass it took me something like 30 minutes. But its all good now, Good luck to you

Thanks man, its only the base and head gasket bolts I have to lock tight, so I shouldn't be that difficult
