Local wildlife

I stopped by one of the neighbors' to help her adjust the mirrors on her Harley, and this guy showed up-

He fans and then shakes the feathers behind it to scare the squirrels. As you can see, it doesn't work too well.

Bar #3

Put my Biltwelll tracker handlebar on today, went from this-

to this-


I didn't get a chance to ride it or do any adjustments, had a little rain. I'm looking forward to it, though.

Swap meet ride

I decided to take a cool morning ride to the monthly swap meet at Webster. It's about 70 miles from home.
The temperature was in the low 70s or high 60s when I left at around 8:00am. Sunny and cool, just how I like it!

You can tell that summer's here, because everyone gets there early, and some vendors have headed north for the summer. Still a good crowd, though.


I walked around and really didn't need anything, but you never know. Saw a few guys I know, and one of them was doing what I should do; sell some crap instead of buy. I've been kinda looking for some used Biltwell tracker handlebar for my Sportster, a new one costs too much to try. Anyway, he had one for $30(new-over $100), so there I went.

One of these mornings I'll put it on and see. Glad I brought a bungee, just in case!

The ride back was ok too, I made it back just after noon. It's 94 now.

New rubber, some day

I ordered new tires for my Busa almost two weeks ago, still waiting.

I thought for sure they'd be in the other day, so I got ready, but still waiting. Maybe today's the day!

I want to put my hard bags back on and be ready for a little trip.
