HonDa test-ride

last week did some miles on my brothers HonDa. the bike is loud and rides good!!! no front brake...little bit tricky, but all went well!it was sunny but cold.....it's a FuN RiDe!!
now my brother only need to get his license....

temperature is getting better, wtF with all the TuPPerware Bikes...do you know when I see an old bike. i get a gOOd feeling. I don't feel anything when i see a bike with all plastic crap and a guy pressing a button to start it... everybody has their own taste and there are some nice looking racing bikes, but i just don't feel it..same with most of the new h-D bikes.

I hardly speak to 'young' people which like old bikes...or who don't mind going 200 km per hour.
they say, I don't want a chopper. I will get that kind of bike when I'm older..... I really don't understand that view... same on the special motorcycle suit/boots etc.. I just want to take a jacket and ride...no shit. it must feel Ridiculous walking with your arms like you are a bodybuilder and your legs like you are taking a crap while walking....

jawa clutch plates

did some work yesterday on my jawa. never did this kind of work.
i need to clean the plates. they are too greased up with oil because of the long time without riding.
I only need to figure out how to remove the three pens and get the clutch plates..... out of the clutching house.....
for skilled people this job would probaly take 1 hour.... for me it is triall and eRRoR!
