    I can’t believe pilot is letting you use the shop like that, I’m glad! I was gonna say they run cars at Fonda sat night, right across the river from where you are. If you ride north from there it’s really nice country.

    • @amsoiladam
      @amsoiladam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s technically not the pilot. It’s the southern tire Mart. They’re just in the pilot parking lot. The crew there is really really nice and extremely helpful. I walked over to the speedway yesterday evening. Unfortunately, the races were canceled because of the weather.

    About Part Numbers - okay, I have a Honda CB750 from 1979. I needed to find a special o-ring that looked more like a triangle. Its for sealing the Tach Cable Coupler to the Valve Cover. There was a hell of a leak. Finally my last try was 'Chatgpt"- after 5 tries I found the right part number to look up on ebay - done deal -

    It does suck that you have to make the expensive repairs to the truck. A lot of the money made for the business in Laconia out the door but that is the price of being in business. I am not sure why I am running my mouth here. You surly know what it cost to run a business. I guess one of the lucky parts to this story is the shop that was close and allowing you to make the repairs. That is a blessing. Take care and hope next week will make it all right.

    • @amsoiladam
      @amsoiladam  6 หลายเดือนก่อน
