To continue the Bridgestone project: I got the cylinders back from rechroming and they are so pretty and clean that now I have to really polish up the rest of the engine so they look like they belong. I took the heads to Moto Gizmo (my friend's motocycle shop) and bead blasted them, so they look pretty good. I think I clean out the carbs...

OK. So it's been over a year since I posted in the journal. I know I am supposed to keep this up, but what exactly do I have to share? Well, I am working on the Bridgestone again. Pulled the jugs and send them out to have the bores rechromed. Then I'll put in new pistons and do a little tuning on the carbs and...

Yea!!!!
Attaboy and a pat on the back!
The 'journal' is weird isn't it?
...not like telling a few million people what you are up to.
I am selling the 919 and buying a new KTM 300....can't wait to get back to dirt!
Good luck with that rebuild.

What is going on? With the weather I mean. Monday the high was 36. Wednesday it was 70 degrees and I was riding the Ducati around. Yesterday it was 72 so I rode the K75 around. Today it might get up to 46 and I am going to play on the computer all day, and may even get some work done!

It's 2005, update!
lewboy:
I know. How sad can I get?
Jeez, I just looked at my journal and it sure has been almost a year since I have put anything in here. What does that tell me?
lewboy:
Two wheeled adventures.

Scary stuff for more than one reason.
Well, the holidays have been a little slow for me. Cold (for here), breezy and boring. However, now that I note the the SG Burlesque will be visiting, I am all aglow with the holiday spirit. I hope all the closet SG fans will see fit to attend and stand up for his/her devices and desires.
Well, it's been a little while. I've been enjoying all the new girls and new sets. But here comes another holiday without a SG of my very own. Maybe Santa will leave one under the plastic tree this year. I posted pics of my motorcycles over at SGMC aftert thinking about doing it for months. Seems like we should have a SG meet and greet...

Thanks for posting pix. You've had some cool rides!
papawheelie:
wow. I thought for a minute that said "Jewboy". what the fuck. i need a coffee....
Today has been a weird day so far. Got up feeling pretty fuzzy. Still I got up and out for the 9am Art Bar Euro Motorcycle Club ride. Motorcycle blew a fuse on the ride, but got home OK. The joys of Italian motorcycles. But the weather is beautiful. Hopefully spring will last more that a few weeks before it gets hot as hell.

Nope. I have a 98 Ducati ST2, a 92 BMW K75, and an antique 69 Bridgestone 350 GTR. I really like the Ducati, but I keep having little electrical problems that threaten to leave me on the side of the road. I am done with on-the-side-of-the-road adventures!
The weather has turned beautiful, but already hot at 82. Planting the garden. Getting the pool ready for swimming.

Oh, and yeah! Free rides for any Suicide Girl!
This was going to be the year I returned to Daytona to watch people and motorcycle racing. Luckily my plans fell through, since it has been wet crappy weather nearly the entire time in beeyootiful Florida. Rode to a buddy's house to watch the race on his garage media wall and eat fresh grilled hot wings with that special home-made hot sauce from special home-grown...

I was not too happy about the transformation of the speed channel to the Turn-left channel.
That's a much better profile pic, imho.
It's going to be 78 degrees here later in the week - time to get the bike out of storage!

It just never ceases to amaze. Last night in the process of getting drunk, I ended up talking to a guy and somehow the conversation gets around to SG and he sez he will be taking pictures for an upcoming Suicide Girl. It may be Columbia SC, but it was Art Bar!
OK, so I have been away from the site for a while. Sometimes it's a pleasure to deny myself these gorgeous nubile delights, and then come back and indulge in catching up on the galleries. But I have been freelancing on site and I have gotten at least one flavor of the rhinoviral ick for the holidays. Just about everybody I know here in this...
