Ray Days

This weeknd was Ray Days. A local HD dealership that has a festival downtown. I didn't get to really spend too much time at the event this year because I was babysitting for a friend. The OG crew had their bikes in the bikeshow. They all won trophies. Glad that someone sees their hardwork. Kevin wasn't able to put his bike in the bike show because he was helping out at the Marine Corps League booth selling raffle tickets for the 6.5 Grendal. These are just a few pictures of the weekend.

Too much time and too much money will make your bike look like this.....WOW Tacky

He just finished doing some stunts in the parking lot

Clutch Cable Replacement

So here we go...again. Thursday went to the HD dealer in Durham since they had my clutch cable in stock. Got there and asked the kid "You sure this is correct it looks too short?" He answers  "Yah it's right" This morning get the bike in the shop, the radio going, coffee in hand, and start tearing the bike down.

Disassembly started

Pull the primary off, broken cable out and NO FREAKIN WAY!!! Dial the HD in Durham and after complaining about how I told them it didn't look correct they tell me they found the correct cable. So yet another drive to Durham. Approx: 50 miles round trip cause someone was slack...myself. I knew I should have measured things cause more than likely you will get the incorrect parts if you aren't following up on them. Parts get mislabeled blah blah blah. Anyhow with the correct cable in hand. I can get things reassembled.

New cable attached

Primary cover back on and ready to adjust the clutch. Notice the new grips I placed while on the phone with the HD dealership.

We use all the space we have!

So frustrating day: Motto for the day measure twice cut once. Always trust your gut.
