didnt do much to engine this winter, reshimed head and degree cams,
install new cam chain.
take out tranny and check all gears and dogs , every thing looks good , so back in we go.
changed out shift arm and linkage my old one looks streched.
compression still good, so will try to run another year.
first time out early may to byhalia, noth'in but trouble,, new chain
streched like crap,, jump out of third
during burn out,, then did not want to shift,, finaly got it in gear left the line spinnin
and sideways, tearable run
next time trial,, jump out of gear during burn out ,,, then would not shift into first.
must have bent shift fork???

linkage,, its not rollin the drum,, crap this newer lookin linkage is not workin that i
just put in,,, put old linkage back in the one that looks streched
and i shifts perfect,,, put every thing back together,, burn out on drive,, seems
fine.works
back to memphis thu test,, bike runs and shifts perfect,, runs 8.72
147mph,,, easy pass to break in
cam chain,,, rear chain did not strech properly and has a tight spot,,, this is probably
slowing me

was going to red river la, but back is hurting to bad,, bad disc had
to lay up at home for three days.

little slow strong head wind, 8.90 first pass,
8.89,8.90,,,dial 8.90 for gamblers race,, ran 8.901,,,next round ran 8.78 breakout..
sunday idba i qualifed no 1 with 5.03 reaction,, dial 8.84 run 8.75 break out, the
wind changed and was pushing me faster.,, had some good 60fts 1.26 ,, mph was down
due to wind and running 44th rear spk.,
