Snowy ride

[rboe]

Pulled the carb last weekend on the XR650L (Honda content ), looked like the low speed jet had a wee bit of crud in her. So the Grotto run on Sunday was taken with the XR, she needs the road time. Luckily she ran like a charm. But it was in the low 40's (a while back I installed the NC windscreen that was on the CB (CB1100 content ) on the XR and that made a nice improvement. Still, I was all bundled up, at 50-55mph one can get mighty chilled.

I think the windscreen lets the XR cut the wind a bit better too. I need to do some mileage checks with it. In the next few weeks I want to buy a cush hub and lace it up for the old gal. She'll be mostly a pavement rider so I need to save the counter shaft splines.

Going from a smooth inline four to a big thumper; ufdah!
Took off without the camera or phone so no pics; which is a shame as Bronson showed up with his 1990 Ducati Super sport, Armin had his new version; visual and motorcycle eye candy!
