I can relate....

21f here this morning...3rd day in a row w/ clear blue sky's & high temps reaching almost 50f. Definitely getting another spin on the Mullet today....

24f for the 2nd day here...absolutely cloudless sky yesterday. Had a good spin on the Mullet yesterday...gonna try for another today...

I knew it'd only be a matter of time before our resident Peanut Gallery piped up w/ a wise crack... The stretch of tarmac I did that on was pretty damn flat, I'll have you know. It was an old favorite that I frequently took most of my bikes on...

Great tune to play in your helmet while railin' the Twisties.... https://youtu.be/WmGTWR1Zdic?list=RDMM

I'd say you scored pretty well there @boboneleg! ...Nice looking wheels.

...My old '74 DT 125 saw an indicated 73mph w/ my fat arse on it...I thought I'd won the lottery that day.

Myself, I enjoy doing that kind of work...especially if you've got an array of new parts for replacement. Inline 4's or parallel twins/triples are much more pleasant to deal with vs. wrestling w/ V4 carbs, which can sometimes be a real bitch.

Cool bike....reminds me of my Dad's '78 CB750k. He eventually gave it to my brother who's a wizard w/ a wrench. He pulled the head, gave it a hone w/ some fresh rings & a new gasket...it ran like a champ after the that.

Don't think you can go wrong with Yuasa....had great results with them over the years w/ my Bikes.

My Christmas season has been spent looking after Mrs. Hook w/ her new knee...gotta admit that I'm proud of her for doing well w/ her recovery. Seeing consistent increments of improvement everyday. Kind of anxious to see how well she'll be doing by our anniversary in Feb. Hopefully be mobile enough to do a day trip to Hermiston to see my Great G-son by then...

Maybe I shouldn't have capitalized that?...

Indeed!....MERRY CHRISTMAS to all my fellow 2-Wheelers! & may 2026 bring a lot more RIDING--

Like I said before....Depends on WHO you ask....
