Gentlemen,
I hope you had a happy fathers day. I got a Ducati monster model...what a dream would be one in 1:1 on the door way.
I enjoyed after 4 month with Wendy as a solo bike 3200km (2000Mi) mounting Jolly Roger (s/c) to her again (dismantle was in february 26 minutes + 5 minutes finding the light bulbs for flasher) .
Assembling at a very slow pace with a cup of coffee in between was 50 minutes mechanical assembly and 1 hour 40 minutes including dusting and electrical reconnection.
With my brother in law, and later a nephew and our 12 year old "market breed" had a few turns around the village. Better said an "inspection tour" where you are not able to enter with a normal car.
As several times said a 350ccm 2 stroker Jawa is nothing for high mountain range... today I had to tighten the clutch again.
The reason why I did not wait until I would have found a new work horse is that our Irish setter bread "Nana" who got operated a month ago from a 3,4kg tumour, developed in just 4 weeks a new fist size tumour in her bellies back muscles. So she will not be around long time with us and I think its a compromise to full fill...As the vet said, the question is not how long, but life quality... The road will see us the next weeks more until her pain becomes too bad.
But don't think she is in bad shape...yesterday she enjoyed chasing the rig through the farm, easily 30km 20mph for quite a few turns.
Then, good night.
Sven
