    Picked up the R !Pics!!!

    Woke up at 5:30 and headed off for the 6 1/2 hour trip to Henderson NC. I test rode the bike while I was there and WOW! It amazed me of how much power this thing really had. Had a nice conversation with the owner. He owns Sanfords ATV, they just do repair work, buy, and sell. There were tons of quads and a couple of trikes. He said they used to have a R with a 330 kit, that ran on alchohal, and drag raced it. Any way this R is extremely nice and runs excellent. Just got back (8:15) and I'm exhausted, so I'll clean her up and get some picks tommarow!

    Oh yea... I also got rid of the cr80. He knocked off some money for that thing. It was just in the way, I had no plans for it. And now I have a parking spot for the R.

    Pressure washer decided not to work today, so I didn't get her as clean as I wanted. Went to bleed the rear brakes, and the bleeder broke off as I was loosening it. I think I got a good deal on it. It runs strong and there isn't anything mechanically wrong. I am running Klotz Super Techniplate, with 93 octane at 32:1. Ahh It smells so good! I'm going to change the gear oil tommarow, I searched for what to use and I read somewhere that I can use regular 10w30 motor oil. Is this correct. Trying to load up a video, but here are a couple of bad pics.

    Heres the short little video. http://s137.photobucket.com/albums/q...1230061659.flv

    So can I run 10w30 or do I need something different?
