Since I there were accusations of poser [sic] status I felt compelled to go out to the garage and redeem myself by starting my project a couple of days early. Actually there wasn't anything good on TV.



Going to pull the inner primary tomorrow, replace all the seals install the Baker tensioner (if my t-shirt ever comes MarkWood) move to the other side and replace the cams with Andrews 48H, S&S lifters and pushrods. Don't tell the guy from Oklahoma I bought all this stuff at the poseur store.......

You have a bike lift! Must be nice. Is this the first time she will be opened up?

I have a J&S jack and a Kendon lift that is left over from my sportbike days. Yes this is the first time I've opened her up. The primary chain is in adjustment and not too tight and the shoe is not as worn as I thought it would be.

Mine was hardly worn at 130k and was at perfect 5/8 play until one day it went super tight. Then I called Mark.

Hahaha, you've got as many tool boxes as I do. My tool shed is the garage. One of the reasons we bought this house as the garage is oversized with two spaces wide (plus walkway) and two spaces deep. I can put all my toolboxes in there, have work benches plus room for a full sized truck and the wife's car. The bike is in front of my truck. I even have a dead battery to get rid of as well.

My shop is all tools. I dont have a garage. Some day. House is 75% paid off. 5 years we will be looking for a change. Glad my boss lets me bring the bike in my school shop.

The red one and the yellow are Snap-On, the brown one is a Kennedy.
