Morning all. Supposed to be cooler today. Mid 70's. Going to be a lot of pencil skirts and slacks running around my shop looking for a career to put that fancy degree to use today.
Probably been decades since there have been so many choices. Finding one that pays decent might not be so easy.
Halito Woods..... just lurking through. Nice coffee cup Chris.... but not large enough for me. I gotta have a cup that holds about 24 oz at a time!!
Lou, that young lady looks pretty happy for someone who did a big booboo and got her butt chewed out!! Did she fill the whole tank? Do you gotta go thru the fuel lines and carb to clean out? Looks like she's on the front side of getting her hands dirty!!!
And glad I don't gotta do any electrical work....short wire and expensive?! Besides, I don't know anything about electricity!
Wasnt bad. Bled the fuel rail and fired it up. 30 gallons of diesel in a 50 gallon tank. Gas in a diesel rig is worse. It doest help to chew them out. Just have to make it a teaching moment. I wood hate to make a student cry...
Paula brought home some Covid rapid tests since they’re free. We tried it. No Covid. Trying to find a way to stick the Qtip up the cats noses to make sure they’re safe.
They say 2 months...I'd be surprised if it was. Ural is learning from HD, powder coated engine option...$1,000 undercoating...$600. Neither one worth it to me, although the black does look nice.
Undercoating a motorcycle? If you take a Ural in salt, it's gonna need a hell of a lot more protection than just on the bottom. $600 would buy enough undercoat to cocoon the whole bike.
Some years back I talked to the guy selling this '05 for $1000. He said it didn't even make through one winter as a daily rider to work. All I wanted was the motor and trans but he wouldn't part it out. Couple days later I decided the motor and trans were worth $1000 (drop in power and electric start upgrade for my old 650), and if I could clean up the sidecar and paint it, could probably get over $1000 for it. But... waited too long, someone else grabbed it. Probably just as well, the rusty car would have sat in the backyard and I already had more projects than reasonable.
I don't think I mentioned something Audrey gave me, about as good a coffee as I've had, but a bit pricey. Black Rifle Coffee, a company made up of military vets and their families. Have a lot of different blends, have only tasted these two. Haven't seen a zip lock bag for coffee like this before, works pretty good. I have 16 oz cups, use 1/4 teaspoon sugar (not enough to taste sweet, I don't like sweet coffee) and a half teaspoon of whipping cream, don't like half and half or powdered stuff.
