The bike has 10k on it now, and he thought it could go at least another thousand or two?!<br /><br />Thanks; I like doing the technical write ups. They feel easier to me than ride reports. <br /><br />Then get a CB360 and fix it! I have just learned to do things because I've had to on the bikes in the garage. It might be a fun winter project to do for me as well. That is, if my wife lets me bring it in the house. The garage is heated, but its cheaper to heat the house than the garage.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06606446271603142230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-83982544430110499252010-05-09T08:09:16.679-05:002010-05-09T08:09:16.679-05:00Wow!

You're good at writing up clear instructions and illustrating them with nice pics. <br /><br />For the longest I've hada desire to get an old Honda CB360 (my first bike in the early '80s) and just learn from scratch how to fix anything on it. That would be cool--it's on my bucket list ;-)Sojourner's Moto Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235661849993752840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-65876208215770807362010-05-08T20:50:57.582-05:002010-05-08T20:50:57.582-05:00Thanks Charlie6!

Which ones did you put on? Duros?<br /><br />I'm struggling with re-lacing my former pusher tire. Saw two broken spokes. Bought ten new spokes and nipples, but needed twelve. What a pain.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06606446271603142230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1204440107409695969.post-4829998638940435592010-05-08T19:38:40.114-05:002010-05-08T19:38:40.114-05:00Good write up with pics!

Amazing what the right technique can accomplish.redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.com
