Labor day labor

OK, so mowed the lawn, iced down the beer, got the meats and eats thawing for the grill, hosed off the pool deck, man getting ready for labor day is a lot of labor! You all have a good one tomorrow and get a ride in there somewhere, even a short one!

Just got back from a nice 100 mile ride! Great day here in Iowa!

While I'm here....whats the best thing to take along on long trips in case of a flat tire? Is "Fix-a Flat" ok to use on bikes? I thought I heard on time that you shouldnt use it?!

Have a great holiday everyone!

Whitehorse Press has a fix-a-flat type product for motorcycle tires, with or without tubes. You can use part of the can and save the rest for later. It's expensive but seems to be a much better product.

I had a really nice ride yesterday, but my bike started acting up again so I guess I'll be draining the tank today and hoping it's a clogged fuel filter. Well the friends I was supposed to ride with today are going to come over here and we'll have lunch and hopefully my bike will behave around town. Then I'll drain the tank.

Have fun at your party!

Well, we had 40+ people here yesterday, as it is my daughters birthday. Wasn't so bad, ate alot, cooked alot, and then lit up a fire in the pit until about 11pm. Was a nice day overall, but today I'm headin out on the bike for a while. (Of course after I clean up from the party, my yards a wreck!) Yesterday was her day.......today's mine! Have a good one guys.

you might check the inlet to the carb maybe a piece of the hose is above the needle and seat if its FI I've read about pinholes in the hoses inside the tank hope this helps

No rain here....Its beautiful....problem is Im at work......but I rode the bike in...thats gotta count for something

Bah Humbug

Iv'e turned into a grumpy old fart!!!! Somebody slap me. There are so many cops on the roads here ya can't hardly go the speed limit (thats no fun anyway) without some cage tailgating wanting to be bear bait or slaming on the brakes/cut you off ect....The weather is nice till noon, then is't gona be just under a hundred.

No labor for me. Wife and I are gettin on the scooter and goin to my daughters. She called this morning and said for us to just show up and don't bring a thing, she has all the eats and drinks ready to go. Now ya just can't beat that kind of invitation. Both her and my son are the two best things that resulted from my 1st marriage. The next best thing was divorcing their mother. :roflmao:

Hope everyone out there has a fun and safe holiday.

Well Happy Birthday Cowboy....hope ya have a great day!!

Happy B-day Cowboy, hope it was a good one. (can't be all bad.....you woke up this morning! :roflmao: )

I spent the day washing and polishing getting ready for the funeral tomorrow its a 150 mile ride each way leaving at 5:30 am its gonna put me in the middle of the sacramento commute getting out my hog atlas maybe I can find a road around the worst part meeting my brother at sutters mill at 9:00 funeral at 11:00 they decided to have it tuesday so it wouldn't disrupt the tourists in georgetown for labor day weekend

I'm with Chuck with this..go easy FXDSteve..and
God bless

Not sure where you're riding from Steve, but I'm from Sacramento. Sutter's Mill is in Coloma. I'd take US50 up to Placerville and then hwy 49 north to Coloma. Pretty cool riding along hwy 49 in Gold Country. You could take the Shingle Springs exit going up US50 to Placerville, then right on Green Valley road for a mile or so, then left on Lotus Rd to hwy 49. At that point, it's only a mile south (right) into Coloma and Sutter's Mill. I'm sure you're friend knows the best way to Georgetown from there, either Marshall Rd or Mt Murphy Rd are the quickest ways up. Either way, it's great riding. I'll be thinking about ya at the funeral. Georgetown's a cool little town.
