That a bummer, Mark. Not a good way to start the week. Hope it gets better from here.

Finally got into the gearbox and I can just about see the wear on the 2nd-5th dogs (bottom-left of pic #2)
Also noticed some wear on the outer main bearings so they get added to the parts list

i rode it to and from work as my commuter is getting painted
Have not got to do any thing to my Max lately not even ride it. I have been way to busy. My little 2 car garage has been packed & I hate going in there anymore so I have been working on ths little 10 x 14 shed in the back. I got it done today then it rained its ass off & it has a couple small leaks now I just have to fix them & build shelves all the way around it so I can clean my garage out & have a place to work with out moving a ton of crap. probably gona take me another 2 weeks building shelves in between work & moving stuff out there & getting it organized. Kind of sucks being a 1 man team sometimes.

Kyle, I have one of those, slightly smaller, but it appears to be the same manufacturer. It has lasted well. I may try to replace it when it does rust-out w/another aluminum shed of the same style, I had one that lasted 24 years and would probably still be here if Hurricane Wilma didn't destroy it. The steel ones like you & I have are cheaper but you have to replace them in 10+ years. In a few years, scuff the roof and paint it and you will probably add a few years to its service life.
Finished prepping the bodywork to begin paint and pinestripe work next week

Still waiting for mine...
Today I got told it was put through the compliance paperwork process, so now it's down to the government in Canberra to process it. It's only taken this a******s from April 11 'til today to actually submit it.
So now I'm told 'no timeframe' - should be a week or two until we hear anything back :bang head::bang head::bang head::bang head::bang head::bang head::bang head::bang head:

Checked the voltage of the new lithium batterty ( 13.5 ) after sitting for two days while I painted the house. Also hooked up 2 LED strips above and below the rear seat reflector.
