Makes a good laxative in a pinch.
Better to go with a "caguama" of Sol, cabrones.

Bato and his daughter Bernadette at my place yesterday, just after we swapped out the Doohickie on his '09 KLR. Bato's is ready for the dirt in Mexico, Big Bend, and the Texas Hill Country now.

Bernadette wrote down in english and spanish the names of the engine parts and tools used. She's an excellent Spanish instructor and more impressive, a recent college graduate from Monterrey, Mx.

Below is Schizzman in my garage today as we worked to get his KLR ready for Mexico next week by installing the Caribou rack system.

Here he is grinding off part of the existing rack to make room for the new side cases.

The job required some creative mechanical thinking and the use of some special tools such as a tap and die set, which we were lucky to have on hand. Good job JD!

Next week for both Bato and the Schizzman, installation on both bikes of Dunlop 606 rear tires and TKC 80 fronts.

Both bikes will be ready for the dirt on both sides of the border.

I was the lucky one! Thanks for going the extra mile with me and
getting it done.

My apologies to Mrs. Tricepilot for keeping you so late.

Now to hammer the muffler into submission.

Sounds like a man who knows the feeling. Either I left them hanging from my shirt, of they are sitting right there on my desk and I can't see them.
