I can't imagine hating breakfast. I don't eat a full breakfast everyday but on the occasion where I am in the mood I find great joy and pleasure in bacon, sausage, eggs and hash browns or home-fries. Eggs Benedict is also a treat. Making and eating a nice full breakfast with my wife on the weekend is a welcome indulgence that transcends the concern for nutritional or health values. The food and the aromas from cooking breakfast create comfort and set a warm ambiance for the day. IMO sometimes a meal is more than just the sum of feeding one's body.

Well duh. You can't just go and cut a strap willy nilly, you'd need a hot knife cutter which will require lots of input. But seriously, not having a bunch of strap to have to secure makes life easier. A less permanent alternative is to roll up the excess and zip tie it...and figuring that out 'should' only take two pages and three failed attempts.

Hard boil some eggs on the weekend and put them in the fridge for the rest of the week. It's amazing how far two eggs will let me go before I get real hungry again. I like to put salt and pepper on them, or better yet a splash of Frank's red hot.

Well, I was fortunate today. I bought my DR field mower from Bluff City Cycles. Looking for motorcycle shops in my area, this came up. Got my parts in, so I brought the bearings and the drive assembly in to see what he thought. He didn't have that many more tools than I had, but he was much more familiar with driving these out and installing new ones. Total cost...just under $33. I can start putting it back together this weekend.

Hey, did you notice that Phillip isn't on here talking about how his Blackbird is broke down? 😁

Full 4 into 1 stainless exhaust with RS-3 canister. Good condition with 1 missing canister rivet and one small scratch. Pics can happen if interested. $250 plus shipping from 24134. I ran this system for about 35K miles and switched to a Micron setup. Great power, very nice sound. May have PC-3 custom Dyno map, but not sure I can find the CD or recover it from a crashed drive....maybe.... Not online frequently these days, so email to hondasixpak@yahoo.com will get the quickest response. Thanks, T

Ahhh, you must be new here.

When you buy the right truck to tow with, the mileage is of no concern..... 🤣

Hey, I owned one of those until I let the neighbor who had just chugged half of a fifth of whiskey take it for a ride. Did not end well but he survived.

I have some split-loom stuff on it now that's supposed to work, I just had it in the garage so on it went when I repaired the wires. We'll see. I have an old showerhead sprayer hose, much like flexible conduit, that looks ripe for the job if that doesn't work. He ate a whole cube of poison last night, so I'm guessing his aspiring replacement is considering measuring for new curtains. Usually a big bull rat like that keeps others scared away for a while and it takes some time for a successor to get curious enough to risk looking around too closely. I'll have to keep a welcome platter prepared for the next candidate. Good call. 1982 CB650SC. It's a friend's "someday" project that I'll probably end up doing for him at some point when I run out of projects of my own. (giggle)

Well, that's one BMW owner who is into sausage fests.

...aaaand the Excursion batteries are at 1.5 volts. First person to say "rat lives matter" gets a free overdose of Coumadin in their beer at the next meet. Motherfucker sure is an overachiever. Ima be as diligent in fixing his shit as he was in parting these wires.

Sure you do. Use something long and thinner at one end to prise under the to door and raise it up a wee bit. Put a block under the door, reset your prising bar, and repeat until there is room for your hydraulic floor jack. Now you're in business. Raise the door with the jack, block it up, and lift the door again using whatever you can find...4x4 post, two 2x4's secured together, etc. keep lifting until the door is at least halfway up. As more of the door passes the 90 degree corner, less weight will be direct lift and you should be able to push the door up by hand. You did it! Just you and your friends leverage and hydraulics!

My wife loved it... and I randomly fill out pages and don't tell her so she is surprised each time I do... $30 below... on the Tik Toc shop it was $9 shipped. https://seasonalpicks.gifts/products/what-i-love-about-you-leather-journal

Well, that's what I needed to know, avoiding it then.

Like Super said, if you can get the part, take it to any machine shop or even a decent auto repair shop to press the bearings.

Let me find a YouTube video on this…. j/k

https://www.facebook.com/share/1XTdUzgrFfyHvNjn/?mibextid=79PoIi checked it out over the weekend. Pretty clean. A couple small marks helibars, longer cables, heater grips, 2bros pipes, zero gravity screen, power commander, vortex sprocket, chain and tires new manual and tool kit still in place

And, in case you wonder how common an issue this is….

Looks like a mechanic/DIYer induced failure.

Because he made a Zerological decision to replace it with a BMW.

Why?

I took the first freeway ride yesterday, it was short and traffic kept me from getting much above 70, but it rode fine. It wanders mildly on rain groves, but not bad.
