Picture: My new Justin boots I bought in Harrisonburg, VA.
Got back from Virginia on Sunday September 11th. Had lunch with Julie in Olathe and was so pooped when I got home about 6pm I didn't even go for a ride.
Spent most of the day Monday doing little maintenance things on the bullet. It had leaked some oil while I was gone so tried to figure out where that was coming from. I think I need new O-rings in the tappet cover and oil filter cap but I don't have any so guess I'll just wipe oil until the next change.
Rode for a little while today trying to get the timing set but not having much luck. It doesn't seem to make much difference how I adjust it runs about the same. Got it up to 60mph a couple of times and that is about as fast as I want to ride the thing. Kind of windy today so riding wasn't all that enjoyable but the temperature only got up to 79 so that was nice.
I bought a leather jacket and chaps from Oden this evening, he is giving up riding because his wife isn't able to ride because of her health. He sold his Harley sidehack rig, he has been riding Harley's since he got out of the Navy after W.W.II. The gloves I ordered arrived today, they have "Royal Enfield" embossed on them. With my new boots, leathers and gloves I should be quite the sight putting along on the Bullet.
