Have ridden several times over the last few weeks, but other than
and you, we’re the only ones that ride.
I got bored yesterday and measured and reset sag on the Aprilia. Also discovered that Ohlins has an app that helps with recommending and tracking suspension changes, so that’s kinda neat.
Other than that, pretty much just waiting around for things to be open and to be able to do track days again.
Aprilias are so badass. Useless story from when i was a 18 year old punk : I used to know a motorcycle mechanic that was working on one for some guy- doing a LOT of mods. Everything you can think of. The names on the card matched his license so he didn't think anything of it. Well the guy was either running up cards NFG, or he was making his own credit cards with other peoples numbers on it. I cant remember which. Aprilia guy ended up going to jail. The mechanic basically ended up keeping the bike somehow legally.
I hear they are putting deputies at the gates at the Cleveland National Forest to make sure people aren't going around them.
No forest fun for me.
Lame.
Ive done some rides during the plague.
Roads are public.

My bike has been down since September. I havent even attempted to look it over and order parts to repair other than grips and a brake lever.. At this point I may just drop it off at a shop and post if for sale after they fix it.

Dead thread brought back to life - someone might as well have turned on the bat signal.
That's some fantastic fabrication @calederoo

My roommate actually designed it in cad and used some service that cuts and forms whatever Cad files you sent them, all I did was weld it. It came out very nice though.
