I just finished the 12K workover. It felt like every single bolt on that bike was hand-tightened. Torqued everything down to spec again.
Need to run a shakedown test.
That's all I got...

Have to ask, Is the #27 a tribute to Gilles Villeneuve?
Nice bike, terrible luck with the tires.

don't know why I picked 27. It just stuck. I had a Tyco Turbo Hopper with that racing number on it when I was 12. As far back as I can trace it.
And yeah... I saw the valves and wondered if there was any EASY way to get that shit off there. Looks like a heart attack waiting to happen.
