Latest update... never finished the SL engine, and meanwhile, have a guy wanting to trade me a 6500w chinese generator and some cash for the whole mess... stand by for results...

Ok... tiny Honda CL100 and all the parts are now gone, and in its place a 6500w chinese diesel generator and some cash... lol. Onward to the next project! Also have a recently acquired fifth wheel that’s taking up my time.

In Alaska for a few weeks. Sold Frankenbike (kinda sad to see her go, so again, wiping tears with 20$ bills helps) and have the ttr225 up here for sale just in case. Just trying to consolidate a bit. Went to an awesome air show at Eielson. That’s about it so far!

Edit: also have the TTR and all the parts in Alaska sold... nice to finally get moms garage a little more empty, and, make some $$$

Wow... down to two bikes. I’m lonely... lol... drying my tears with the 20$ bills again.

Did you drive or fly up? If you're driving back, I'd love to meet you for a coffee.

I’d love to do that! Flew this time tho, but you come down to Oregon from time to time, as well, right? Give a holler and I’ll drive over to the coast for some coffee. Sister just moved to Bandon from Alaska and even bought some land to build on so I’ve been spending a lot of time over at the coast. Bring a dual sport and we can go ride too.

Updates... chinese generator is essentially wired (plugged) into my house with 240. Its not automatic, so if power goes out, I have a sequence (breaker switches etc) to make sure it doesn’t electrocute or damage Someone/anything. But, need to fix its exhaust as it’s leaking, and, change the oil. Got it at 60hz and about 245v while running, no load.

Meanwhile, sis is finally coming over today and riding the ttr125 for the first time. We planned about a 40 mile trip to find an old mine adit. We shall see if it all works out. I’ll ride the KLX. Should be fun!

Some pictures from Sunday’s ride.

What is the purpose of that bridge? It looks to be too small for vehicles.

It’s got the train tracks crossing it. I think it’s really old.
