Easter Egg Hunt at Grattan
We've gotten a lot done this past week. With Wrobel, Aaron and Doug here last Saturday, we sorted through a lot on both Jeff and Aaron's bikes. There wasn't a lot to do with mine as we were mainly waiting for the motor to come back from Jamie. Tom's Ducati is also here and getting stickered to match our ...

No VIR? No problem.
As for the bike, Joe, Doug and I spent a good 10-12 hours last Saturday working on it. Not going to VIR was disappointing, but it sounds like we avoided some of the crashes that happened on a spring-like, green track in this first race weekend of the season ...

Marching Ahead
March is here. I've been spinning twice a week for the past month and a half, combining that with working out at the gym three times a week with weights and running. I'm currently doing less upper body exercises and moving more to core and lower body to get ready for the season. In ...

Eighth Bits
Motion Pro's digital tire gauge is the latest trick in the shop. It's a great tool, as we used it out the other night with the new bike on the table. It measures to tenth's of a pound in pressure so you get the exact reading you want. It also reads digitally for even ...

Necessary Improvements
Like anyone else, I've got goals for the upcoming season. Part of getting to them is working out a few weak spots at certain tracks. There are certainly places I can improve - some tracks more than others. Here's the quick list off the top of my head:Grattan ...

Seventh Bits
The latest parts coming into the shop are from Pit Bull. We've been using their steering dampers for years and not only is the product great, but the support Pit Bull offers is excellent for when the time arrives to freshen up the fluid in the damper. Other bits and pieces includes a couple ...

Lack of Preparation / Indy Dealer Show
Lackluster fifty ride last night. It was cold and whatever else, but I hadn't taken the time to go over the fifty beforehand like I normally do. I just dusted it off and went out to ride. Turns out she wasn't running right - likely from the carb not having been cleaned after sitting for a few weeks, so the bike was sputtering and dragging out ...

Settling In, Kinda
The last couple of weeks have been pretty hectic. Gina and I moved into a new place, so we've been busy packing, unpacking and trying to get a ton of work done at the new house. The list of stuff we've done so far is long, but the list of what's left to do is even ...

Sixth Bits
Spiegler's brake lines are the latest parts in. Extremely high quality, steel braided lines and customizable as well - you can pick any color combination for the lines, bolts and fittings, which no one else really does. We went with black lines and red fittings. Pretty basic for our needs. Spiegler also ...
