Motorcycle Pictures of the Week - Georgjean and Jared
Broke Down Suzuki Rider-High-tech Motorcycle.
Went with Basil, aka; Broke Down Suzuki Rider, to check out the work he was doing on his bike.
At the end of the riding season last year the old Suzuki had a little leak down in one of the outer cylinders and filled his crankcase with extra fluids.
Suspecting a malfunctioning float BDSR pulled the bank of carbs off and checked the faulty float.
Nothing major seemed to be wrong with the floater other than it and the other three carbs needed a good cleaning.
With the assistance of a Harley rider, whose repair kit contains a hammer and chisel, the cleaning project swung into full gear.
As can happen during minor repairs one of the float posts decided to break under light hammering which initiated a barrage of cuss words.
With the Handyman's Other Secret weapon, J-B Weld, a quick and tardy repair was needed.
I assisted the best I could considering I had to offer sage advice whilst drinking a beer.
But in due time and a couple of beers later the repair was completed and BDSR had the parts back on by the next morning and reports were that It actually sounded and ran better.
Good motorcycle mechanics are not born, they are trained while drinking beer.

Grinding My Gears-High-tech Motorcycle.
One thing that grinds my gears is motorcycle batteries.
No matter what kind of tender loving care you give them over the winter they always seem to let you down. You can tend them monthly over the winter months keeping them in a cool dry place and sending a small trickle charge into them to keep them topped up and fresh. But in the spring when you need them they are dead as a doorknob.
On the other hand friends who put their bike away for for the winter with nary a thought to their battery, dig them out in the spring and after a quick charge are on their way.
Seems like the meaner and nastier that you treat them the better they work.
Batteries!, you can't live with them and you can't ride without them.
Looks like I am going shopping.
