Best of intentions

To take many pictures this weekend, but my camera lost a battle with the road. All around excellent weekend, Walter puts on a great event. The Motorcyclepedia Museum in Newburgh is well worth the trip, truly overwhelming the amount of bikes they have, one stolen pic of the garbage wagons. I think the rest of the idiots may have taken more pictures. Speaking of idiots, we have a new idiot, all 5 readers please say hi to Jason.

See you donkey's tomorrow

GR 6

One week from today. Go or kittens will die!

Tony...put to good use.

I bet that's nice to have on in the Florida heat & humidity.

I love how everyone else looks all deadly serious and cop-like...then there he is.

Valve Replacement Surgery.

250 mile ride out in Western Mass, no problems.
The very next day I go to start the bike and it's only running on one cylinder. Some forensics revealed I bent an exhaust valve and it took the guide with it...??
New guide, plus new valves put in by a local shop & I'm back on the road.

Self conscious about my size.

New 3.3 gallon Mustang, with reserve petcock!

I enjoy these.

Rosemary Butter Cookies. Ganked from Martha Stewart. Hope she doesn't cut a brotha.

Ingredients

• 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 egg white, beaten
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
• 3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1/2 cup fine sanding sugar

Directions

Put butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in whole egg and vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour, rosemary, and salt, and mix until combined.

Halve dough; shape each half into a log. Place each log on a 12-by-16-inch sheet of parchment. Roll in parchment to 1 1/2 inches in diameter, pressing a ruler along edge of parchment at each turn to narrow log. Transfer to paper-towel tubes to hold shape, and freeze until firm, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375. Brush each log with egg white; roll in sanding sugar. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Space 1 inch apart on baking sheets lined with parchment. Bake until edges are golden, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. Store in airtight containers at room temperature up to 3 days.

Yeah, but can I run an open primary belt?

...maybe jockey shift?

My plate is full

Nice new Super B throttle plate. Yes, I did put the screws in before putting it back on the bike...

Posting machine

New Noise Cycles choppa, I enjoy the paint.

Herbert Cams

I can picture the Dr. riding this

It's called a beanie

Neat pipe(s), bro.

I'm out of material.

Impulse power, Mr. Sulu.

Red Klog tank liner

I've never had a problem with Red-Kote. However, for some reason (bad prep on my part? evil corn fuel?) with this particular tank once the gas gets warm the liner peels away and floats around inside like a big ol' jellyfish.
As you might think, having this bobbing around like a chunk of errant calimari near your petcock makes for a bad ride.

Brilliant!

Thanks, Mr. UPS man

New BDL to replace the primary I bought (used) in 2008. Yeah, it's time...

If you've got something fast and reliable...

and I know you, and you're not a weirdo, don't have hygiene issues and don't chew with your mouth open...Marco and I are hitting this again this year.
It's an 80 acre campground that the owners give us a corner to play in. There's a big quarry full of hippies too. Good times. Hinckley, Ohio.

Karen won't be attending, so there is an R1100 available to a select few subject to background check and blindfolded tire change test.

My turn for K&Q Glory

I'll be making new fender struts this weekend to get the fender right...but I got a smokin' deal on a cherry Drag seat and after several false starts, this is the one that will happen.
So shall it be written, so shall it be done.

another inch closer...

solved this little problem:

Waaay before it's split tank glory...

This is what the '67 looked like...sometime in the 90's?

Zzzzzzz

"Anyone know what time it is? Yeah, 10 o'clock. How do you know? Jay's asleep.."

It must be time for Laconia

Why else would I be seeing clumps of identical Street Glides with apehangers a foot above the windshield on the highway?

What a weekend...
