What's wrong with this picture, besides all the dirt?

Edit: Yep, that's it.

The tools and tubes are going in the camelbak from now on. That rack is a nice piece of kit, but it's going on the wall as a reminder.

Re: HONDA XR650L OWNER'S SIGN IN

I know it's just a weld, but I lost what little momentum I had. I also became a painfully aware of how dirt this bird is.

That's the special JB Weld formula for clutch perches. Works fine for a year and then gives way at the most inconvenient time. haha

Re: HONDA XR650L OWNER'S SIGN IN

I didn't get the Fast Times at Ridgemont High reference as it was before my time.


I dropped the sub-frame off at my welder, and better yet, I got the valve conversion done today!

If anybody needs a valve spring compressor, pm me. I have one and am not afraid to use it.

Re: HONDA XR650L OWNER'S SIGN IN

What's up with the chow for this weekend? SilverBullet is bringing the kolaches. The manly men are going into the brush to hunt and some of us can suvive on snow melt, hard candies and granola bars. But some gotta eat. Are we going to ride into Luling everytime we want a sandwich like in The Wild One?
