The Hurricane ran poorly a few weeks ago at Willow but I found and fixed all the problems in time for WERA at Buttonwillow last weekend. On Friday I made jetting and gearing changes. On Saturday I remembered how to ride and put it all together on Sunday. I was lucky enough to share the grid with lightweight twins classes so got to battle with SV650’s & FZ07’s from the race ahead of me. I took 2nd on track in F2 on Sunday but the F1 is not legal in that class.

On that winning note my Hurricane is looking for a good new home.

I have the new shop set up enough for some work. The CBR has it’s F2 front end again. It and the Ninja are ready for this weekend at Willow with WERA. Then Buttonwillow. Then do the shop lights, walls and floor.

Big heavy duty shelf’s, floor mats, un-necessary stuff gone. Space limitations = don’t save stuff you don’t use. I’ve started work on the F1 to be ready to race with WERA @ Willow this month.

Moving into and setting up a new shop is 3D life size Tetris!

The big stuff is moved in. The small stuff will take longer to arrange and I still have too much stuff to fit in. Because I want the F1 ready to race by the end of this month, the paint, floor and wiring will have to wait.

I’m setting up my 8th shop space. This time in a 2.5 car garage. I plan to have LE moved in by the end of May so I can prep a bike for the WERA Willow weekend at the end of June. The new garage door is just one of the steps.

I crewed my first car race. Many things are the same but different than motorcycle racing, like how they return damaged race conveniences back to the pits.

I added this brake rod length adjuster so the pedal can be moved to or from the driver. The nice touch is adding a tool size note for the person who wiggles under the car to make the adjustment.

The Formula car has a cracked exhaust and the ’49 Cadillac’s passenger window wants attention.
