Finally got the tub into Crazy Joe's here in Whittier for some long awaited service... The tyranny mount is broken, so that needs to be replaced, and I am getting the oil changed and values adjusted.. oh yeah I need a front gasket too I am leaking like an old man (Vince)and of course the brakes will be adjusted along with my throttle cable, and clutch... Geez wiz anything else we can do... I've had this tub for several years now and it STILL runs like a bat outta hell... I love it.. I'll be ready for all our Winter runs in the SOC.. Sorry east coasters.... Ahhh I am getting it back tomorrow... can't wait... better go in and clean up garage floor while I have the chance...
