I was on the receiving end of a much smaller caliber mortar attack once at least. Somebody came up to me working on a Huey and asked why the hell I didn't take shelter like everyone else. There was so much artillery fire going out from the base I didn't even notice the small explosions, and during the day that artillery fire wasn't unusual.

 

John did you change the motor mounts on your Switchback?

My wifes has a pretty good vibration at 70MPH but nothing at 65MPH.

 

Doctor called about my cat scan to let me know what was going on.

Lower back is full off arthritis -- knew that

Medium spondelyostos (spelling) bone degeneration --sorta knew that

Spinal channel blocked in 3 vertebrae causing nerves to stick out ---- Didnt know that but explains pain

He booked me for another specialist but who knows when that will happen

Knee surgery will be about 6 weeks -- his best guess

Good thing im a happy ****er kind of person LOL

Dave

On top of that im waiting for C spine specialist to do relief surgery to free up pinched nerves in my neck

 

Does that disk system on the muffler quiet it down decently?

 

I've got Degenerative Disc Disease in the lower back and the neck.
Completely understand the pain management.
I've finally got the VA to take a serious look at things but its all on hold due the pandemic.

 

Yup you add up all the wounds and injury's over the years and wonder how a guy made it this far

G'afternoon, Woods...day 1567 of social distancing.

 

Finished polishing my spokes. I hate polishing spokes. Glad that I have spokes to polish. Some day I'll get an aluminum front rim.

What did you use and how did you do it, Lou?

 

Motul and some scraps of flannel and a shoe laces. The brake dust is a bitch to get off as usual. I've used Mother's as well. This stuff is a little better.
