I believe this is the first time in all the years I've been here that Tomek and Superhawk haven't insulted mothers, threatened ass kicking, activated ignore buttons, and insulted every possible thought or evaluation in the discussion.

 

You boys feeling ok? Tomek, did you start banging heroin over the winter??

I think he finally realized that anyone who can make the 90 mile swim to America at 11 months old isn't someone to fuck with.

@superhawk996 It's not listed here, so maybe it's just alzheimers....

Trippy, I didn't know the bay of pigs invasion happened a day after my Bday, but 9 years before my Bday.

"Longest recorded strike ends as the Danish barbers' assistants end a 33 year strike" lol.

 

What happened with them? They cut them loose?

Knock all this birthday shit off. This is the garage, not the pub.

He's old as dirt now, he might be warming up to asking how to fix some broken stuff and we don't have a medical forum.

We know that the stock rad. and single fan works.

I still want a second fan.

 

....sitting in traffic for 2 hours in 98% humidity August heat with my friends on The Soo, as the locals call it, seeing the XX slowly fail was like watching a friend bleed to death. 

 

The heat gauge was creeping up and the starter started turning slower....

 

I kind of coasted s l o w l y into customs.

 

I have thread somewhere on replacing the stator.

IIRC it is downhill coming back from Canadastan at that particular crossing. The last hour of sitting in the traffic is downhill. Before that is uphill. So I guess it could suck in August. 

BTW, nice fingerless gloves.👍

A second fan would have eaten the battery even faster, something to consider.

I should have stopped before the bridge. It's a long-ass bridge. I wanted to keep up with the other two guys. I remember it being like 2 hours to cross. ...another two hours finding and installing a new charged battery, etc.

This has happened to me. Old battery, hot day, wreck on the interstate. Finally just pulled over at a high point until traffic cleared. Had to push the bike off.
