Misjudged the length of a bolt mounting my rear fender and it finally caught up with me. Gouged a perfectly good tire. Stupid little mistakes = $$$. Serves me right for making the mistake. At least the tire didnt shred while riding.

RL came by last night and gave me a hand remounting the xs650 motor back in the bike. A quick process. We knocked out the timing, carbs, and wiring in about an hour and after some uneventful kicking, she eventually fired up for the first time since last September. Called it a done deal with two PBR’s to spare. I’ll revisit this thing in the spring to adjust the valves and timing and to mount a new rear fender but for now, this one is destine for storage.
