Iowa Roll Call

Mindoro Cut?? ^^^

southeast Iowa here.....live in Moravia, work in Albia.......ride almost anywhere

I have a garage full of bikes....but the KLR650, Ural or BMW G650GS get the gravel/off-road use. Me and my girlfriend both ride.

a garage full you say/

At one time I had a "problem" called motorcycle hording......

I had double digits I think something like 11......some nice vintage examples of bikes like this:



Some modified for fun.....





Anything from a 1975 CB400F cafe racer......to a 1978 Suzuki DR370........2002 Ninja ZX600R.....I had it bad.

I had to simplify.....so Im down to 5 bikes (still have ATVs and such though).

Victory Vision
KLR650
BMW G650GS
Ural
Kawasaki KZ1000

Ive been working on my Ural as of late.....spraying a little ultra flat paint.

Short notice, but if anyone happens to be in the area, three of us are going to be at the General Store in Stone City for lunch around 12:30.

I'll be right there.

Spent the day riding down to do some riding on MO county rds. Lotta fun, lotta sun. Figure I better take this chance to ride as the bike goes in the shop in a couple of weeks for new chain and sprockets, and the once over. Then come the end of March, the seat gets sent off to Renazco for new padding and upholstering.

Here's a pic I took in Grant City, MO whilst on a break for my butt.

Um I can change your chain and sprockets. While we are in there it might be wise to lube up your swing arm bearings as well.

Psssst you still need that tusk gas air vent!!

Sounds great, just gotta get the parts ordered then, I'll be off on vacation from 0ct.28th thru Nov.5th. Let me know if this date works, and I need to remember to get the air vent.

After 1pm on the 29th and 30th also nov. 2nd work the best for me!!

PM me for my home addy!!

Lets do it for the 29th and 30th since I have a doc app. on the 2nd of Nov. 2 IA Orthopaedic for my knee. Besides the sprockets 7 chain, what do I need to bring, address and such. PM me with the details. BIG thanks for all the help.

Let me know which day. Sat or Sunday? It will only take 2 hours at the most.

Also if you get a chain that you need to rivet I dont have that special tool to rivet. I use the clip type master links. When you break a chain coming home from west Fest like I did, you are very happy when you have a clip type master link and can fix it on the road.

PM sent!!

I am planning a gravel route for this Saturday. Plan to leave waterloo about 7;30...breakfast in Fayette at the cafe downtown about 8:45...leave from there on route about 9:15. Join in if you like. Weather says it should reach about 60. jw

Tomorrow it is to reach mid 60's. Headed for NE Iowa. PM me if you want to join in.

Tempting, but i'm traveling out of state for work next week, and need to make sure everything is prepared for that .

Temptimg as it is, I'm to far southwest for you to waste time waiting on me. Have fun tho.

Anyone have any interest in my '93 XR600R? It's platted in Johnson, Co. I have a clean/clear title and 2012 OHV stickers for it.

There are no turn signals/mirrors/horn but it has a functional headlight/tail light and brake light. FYI - the tires are not DOT legal either.

PM me if interested and I can give you the run down.

THANKS-

Got out today for some dirt road exploring.
