Installed a K&N air filter and then went on to install a jet kit

Pull the throttle cables


Pull the choke cables


pull the tank, some EPA and carbs




Pull the vacuum springs, and slides



Change out the needles


Re-assemble that...

Drill out the air/fuel mixture screw cap


Drop the bowl


Pull the floats, inspect the float vlv and change the main jet


Reassemble the carbs


Put them back in and start hooking everything back up


Looking good... starts and runs, but carbs need to be sync'ed


Then I asked him how many miles it had. Bad idea! 10K he says. Have you changed the fork or diff oil (shaft drive)?? Worse idea! he says NO.

Changed the diff oil... super easy.

pull the front wheel


Pull the forks.



Change the oil on the forks, and re-assemble the bike... YEAH!

Then I could finally get to doin somin to my bike!

not only is he a neighbor, he's a biker, and a vet. That's the tripple play enterance for me to help a bud.

But damn it kills the postwhoring...

Who or what will be next??

Not sure...

But for now the Phoenix is taking up that space....
