Radipon installed......
It's a three-day weekend full of work, but today is the day to install the radial-pump brake master and stainless-mesh brake hoses, the parts for which were ready more than two weeks ago. I worked for a little while in the morning, but I had an appointment for work in the afternoon, so I left a little before 12:00.
So, just in case.Check wind speed at Umihotaruif you try......
Yesterday we had light winds all day long, with a maximum wind speed of about 5 meters........ I was a bit worried about it, but at this time of the year when I'm in the middle of a work-related project, it would be unfortunate if something happened to me, and there was a possibility that the wind would be even stronger by the time I actually crossed.Today's parts installation has been cancelled.....orz
I had no choice but to become a part of the desk again and resume my work while supporting the staff remotely......
I'll just ride for a bit.
However, it was a pleasant sunny day outside the window. Not as nice as yesterday/the day before yesterday when the high temperature was in the double digits, but it looks like a nice place to ride a motorcycle....... I called Mizonokuchi 2Rinkan and made an appointment for the self-service car wash corner to go out for some reason.
"Two hour break: ....." So I'm going out. A quick car wash.
It was pretty dirty...... If you think about it, I can't even remember when I last washed my car: ..... The last time I foam washed my car was in August of last year: ..... I'm sure I've wiped the bike down a bit when I've lubed the chain, cleaned the front sprocket, or installed OHLINS, but I don't wipe the bike down much because I don't want to scratch it with dust. Maybe I haven't washed the car for a long time......
I wiped it down briefly after driving in the rain, and I usually keep it covered, so it was very dirty..... But if you look closely, you can see some dust on the body ...... It's not so obvious at first glance because the color is black, but the wheels are covered in brake dust and chain oil from running......
I washed the car thoroughly, not only the body but also the wheels and the back of the rear fender, used a blower to blow off the water, and then bought some water-displacing chain oil and Plexus at a two-ring store and did a quick finish wipe in the parking lot.
I was very happy with the shiny new look.
Just a quick look.
I finished washing the car, but until the chain oil was soaked in, I went to SOX, which is located next to the car wash, to see the used cars, which has become a hobby of mine lately.
This is the first one. The TRIUMPH SPEED TRIPLE is available at a very reasonable price for a slightly older vehicle.
The STREET TRIPLE was a test drive.But this is the large displacement version.
The white model on the right is the 2008 model with under cowl. The white model on the right is the 2008 model with the under cowl installed. This is the model that received the Euro 3 update, and it has inverted forks and Brembo calipers. The price including tax is less than 500,000.
The blue body on the left is a 2001 model with less than 10,000 km on the odometer..... The blue one on the left is a 2001 model with less than 10,000 km on it. The price is less than 300,000 yen including tax, and the starting price is just over 400,000 yen....
It's very attractive. But rumor has it that it's a naughty model that can easily wheelie. If I were to get one, I'd go for the STREET one.......
Next to it is a bike I've never seen before: ..... Aprilia's V-twin tourer, the SHIVER 750 GT ABS, is not officially sold in Japan, so it must be a parallel model.
I googled it a bit and found that it seems to be a model with parts supply concerns, so it's not a candidate ..... There are a lot of bikes I don't know~.... But then I found a bike that I know very well.
2006 CB1300SB..... It's also under 500,000. And at the moment I'm drawn to the CB750.CB1300SB when I rented it before.This is the first time I've ever seen a car that looks like it's going to be used for something else......
As I was wandering around the store looking at used cars, a lot of time passed. I'm sure the chain oil has been absorbed by now. I left for home.
I took a short detour and stopped at a convenience store to get rid of any water that might be left on the inside of the cowl and other small parts, but I made it home easily.
So, right after I got home, I resumed work with my desk accessory again.......
