Tx 650.jpg Wrenches.jpg I've been away from the shop for several weeks... try'n to avoid.... " bug ". Couldn't sit around anymore.. so off to the shop... wore a mask.... a client bike ( Tx650) needs to be attended to... mostly cosmetic.... 150 on the cylinders.. but once we get it running...carbs..tank clean'n and rebuilds…. we hope it doesn't do justice to a two smoke'n RD 350.
Then I had to rebuild the caliper on my Cx500….. dual piston unit.. took 45 minutes to convince the caliper pistons to exit the bores.. air compressor jack'd to 120 psi.... clean'd… clean'd again and rebuilt…. then.. How bored have I been... made a pair of wrenches..... since I got.. metric bikes... Brit wacky treads bikes... SAE good old Yankee threads.. with a few left and right handed nuts.. I got everything covered... one for the old 45 and one for the tool box... :)

As long as your exercising social distancing. In the state of Hawaii they consider mechanics essential so I think your just fine.
