  1. Today is the 1/2 mile - more like 3/8 mile. Nice track too.

     

    The short track had a bunch of rain the night before. They were rolling the track until 1pm. 

    After that they ran some practice the sprayed the track with pine sap. Almost ZERO dust

    for the rest of the day. Track looked like it had good traction.

    The Short Track is the best Bike Week event to go to. It's only $15 to get in. Think full access

    pit pass. For the $15 you get to watch practice, 45+ heat races + semi's and finals. Great day.

    Those trees really sneak up on you, don't they?  They are easy to trim when they are little, but they are little and don't need cropping.  Then when you realize they are a problem, they are over your roof and impossible to trim without major effort.

    You got that right. A few years from now and I won't be able to do this. No way can I afford to pay to have it done.

    Those aren't trees, they are big bushes. Most of mine are 3 to 5 feet in diameter at the trunk. My mower could handle most of yours.

    My neighbor has two Oak trees that are as wide as my pick up. He wants to take the big one down. I suggested using a match. This is the biggest one I cut on my property.

  4. These trees rot real bad in the center. The spot where the RC can is, you can push a screwdriver in and carve it out. I don't want one of these trees to hit my house or a neighbors house.

  5. Yard work is almost fun. Took two more trees down today. This one was 65 ft. That leaves 14, 50+ ft trees to go.

    Anything 2" and under gets fed in to the chipper.

  6. Thanks Davis.

    What year XR vs the Z1? I got to ride two XR's built in 82-83.

    XR would have had more hp

    XR narrower so it was more aero

    XR would have been about 200 lbs lighter.

    I would put my $ on the XR.

     

    I had a 78 KZ 1000 with a RC header + jetting. I did several

    roll on races with my friends Vincent ( not sure how far from

    stock it was). Neck and neck up to 125. Fun out on the track.
