Motorcycle rides

[LippCJ7]

all of you guys using T6 in your bikes is convincing me to use it in my Harley, may as well I use it in both my Diesels so I have it around anyway!

Yeah I ride a Harley, I'm not fat and still have all of my teeth also. Used to ride sport bikes and also have had a couple Goldwings, if your on two wheels is all that matters...

I tried to find some T6 at Walmart last night but they only had 5w-40 in stock. What weight are you going to use? I was thinking about running the 5w-40 and topping it off with Mobil 1 20w-50 V-Twin bc I still have 2.5qt of it in my garage.

So just in time for crappy weather, got my (family curse) Yamaha running for the first time in about two years. This is the third time I've owned this bike in the last 30+ years, and with any luck, I'll be able to pass it on to another family sucker soon enough. I figure I spend about a buck a mile keeping it going.

Last time I benched it, the carbs were gummed solid, the head was full of gas from where the fuel petcocks leaked, and more oil was coming out of it than the Exxon Valdez. Pulled everything apart, threw $300 worth of gaskets and assorted small parts into it, and got it to fire up after about 500 kicks and an assist from a car battery. Took it out today for it's maiden voyage on the back roads. Got up to 60 MPH without a hitch, just 15 MPH shy of it's absolute, full throttle, oh-god-don't-make-me-try-to-merge-on-I25-at-speed-next-to-a-soccer-mom-in-a-Honda-Odyssey top speed.

Told the boy not to get any ideas...

I use the Rotella diesel synthetic in my Amigo.

Here's the boy when he was four a couple of months ago.
