Over a month since my last entry. Wow!  Well, summerizing it .
KLR > pulled the front tire off and  polished the inner rim, check allinement, reinstalley and it to seat finally.  Lost a nut on the swingarm bolt so replaced it with one from a bolt shop in LC town.

Bandit > serviced the forks and pulled the last hard shim from the Gold Valve stack to soften it up more. 5 wt oil to 5.6 inches. Cleaned brake pads wit gas to get a bit of kerosene and oil off them and put together. Cleaned capilars as much as could without taking them apart. Ordered new pads but one set came in wrong so got that replaced. Will wait till bike needs to go on lift again before change them out. Yesterday notice front brake was not activating the brake light so checked the switch and after taking it apart, saw it was broken not letting the contact points touch. Order one last night from Bike Bandit.

Started running a soft tail pack that I can swap between the two bike makes it easier to carry what I generally carry when on the road.

Boat > had  a bit of a starting problem with it a few weeks ago and more so last week. Runs fine once you get it to keep running without bumping the electric choke/ inrichener. So got with Ronnie and ordered fuel filter/ gas lines / fuel pump repair kit. Should be in next week sometimes. Will be the 1st attempt at working on that motor.

Fire Dept Bar Be Cue > went down good with around 1700 tickets sold so that was good.

Garden >  Watermelons did not do good this late. Developed brown spots all over the end of them. So, put the little one that looked healthy in the fridge and pulled all the plants and trashed them. Still have one in the wheelbarrow but very small and not growing very fast.
         Did put some cucumber seeds starting in the hot house. We'll see. ;-)
