christmas is always a busy mess having so many kids so i have been very busy.
did two things this weekend.
changed the starter relay. (the old one was just starting to not be reliable)
and put a 150 jet in the carb.
things i learned this weekend:
1. you MUST have a special tool to remove the starter relay. fortunately a mechanic lives around the corner from me so i borrowed his. the tool required is long and thin with a bend in the middle. you need also a shallow 10 socket with a swivel.
2. i learned that it was VERY EASY to change the jet. and a 150 makes a big difference in power.
3. i learned that if the fuel tank goes on very easily, it means that the rubber cover for one of the tank mounts is on the ground.
and for those of you in snow, i rode to work this morning.
