If we made it "Gettysburg area" i could probably swing it. Philly and Pittsburgh are too far for me. Plus I'm not familiar with them. Actually Gettysburg is a bit of a trek also but not too bad.

ThisEndUp- Can't ride due to skin infection, on some antibiotics, doctor said should be cured mid-September, I HOPE. Oh well, I needed to do some bike maintenance anyway. Still need to change the MX oil. Got the CBR brakes bled couple weekends ago also.

Got some nasty leg cramps due to lack of riding and stretching last couple weeks, and think back is pinching nerve again (back surgery early 2006) because right foot / toes going numb about 50% a lot lately. Hopefully in a couple weeks I'll be back to smashing myself on the track and all will return to normal.

That's like 200 miles from Pittsburgh. That'd be a bit much for me.

So I came back home this weekend and I'm all excited cuz its a gorgeous day out to take the fzr for a nice long ride....and I see a oil puddle banghead Right fork seal decided that it outlived its prime and dripped oil down my tire too.

Looks like I'll be doing my fork seals next weekend, which might be a good thing as I've been putting off installing my progressive springs.

Expect posts regarding fork dissassembly, assembly, oil weights, spacer size, etc.. :whistle

sounds good Mega. Definitely take some pictures. I went the lazy route and had a mechanic $$$$ DOH! $$$$ install my race tech's. I'm sure you'll figure it out as there must be quite a few write-ups between here and the Archives on the subject.

It's a big improvement over the stock springs.

Speaking of FZR withdrawal, i just had to violate doctor's orders today. I went out and took the FZR and the CBR for a couple hour spin. Damn it felt good. The FZR wheelies are getting even more enjoyable than the CBR now.
WOOT
Great weather today.
