- September 08, 2016, 16:26:16 PMIs it going to be ready to ride? When I got mine I changed all the fluids... clutch, brake, oil, rear gear box, etc.
Installed new plugs, changed the air filter, checked age of tires and pressure. brake pads..
I know it only has 6K on it but it's still 14 yo.
Not trying to bring you down.

- September 08, 2016, 16:13:36 PM Yes perfectly normal, if you were making motorcycle noises very quietly that is fine also. Which helmet are you wearing? Of course you have your shades on and your riding boots. Everything is normal.......
Now I am a fan of Washbrook's vid's, and really like the ones he has made go fast....then I sit on my bike on a cold winter night, turn on the fans in the living room ,hook the computer to the big screen and play one of Washbrooks vids and ride along with them. I just need to figure out how to get the bike to lean on the curves and not tip over..........best part I can do this in my underwear or even my longjohns if it is really cold, but that is part of the winter and parking the bike in the living room......
Yes you are normal........

- September 08, 2016, 15:28:29 PMOk so I'm sitting out here on the front porch with my helmet on waiting for it to get here. Thats perfectly normal ... right?
