Back to the bike, Bible Dave was riding and avoided some gravel so he didn't put both his and his old lady's bike down. In doing so he caught the edge of the road and put it down. Broke the bars, dinged the tank but over all the bike is in decent condition. Deuce and I went to get his bike so we could help him out and get it back on the road.
On the way to Bible Daves house we crossed "Choptank Road" , thought it was fitting. |
Got the Bike back to the shop. |
Dumped out the excess.
Hey we had to get that baby powder cleaned up somehow.
And the pulling of the wires begins.
Biker Mike and Barfight Sarah showed up bearing the gift of alcohol so progress slowed slightly. But that's what the shop is about, good times and good people.
Wiring done, tested and everything back where it was.
Front end wouldn't go full lock right because the headlight mount was reversed. Easy fix and the front end was good again.
Bible Dave back in the wind. That man had the biggest smile when we got it back together and he started it up. He took it for a test ride before he headed home.
Road rash on the tank....nothing a Lagniappe Shop sticker can't take care of!
So here it is 5 hours later. Bike is finished and Bible Dave is back where he belongs. It was a productive and fulfilling day at the shop.
