  1. My Greenie is finally om the work stand. Hopefully the bearings are the only problems.
  2. Mine needed a voltage reg and stator. Mine had the Ducati branded parts. I think there's an outfit in Colorado that had them.
  3. @docc https://www.motivcycleworks.com/ He's no longer at the address you listed, now on W Wilshire. Link provided. I think he's still has the stock. He tells me he's about to tackle the Greenie for me. Health issues have slowed me down. Hope to be up and running in a month to 6 weeks. Maybe the Greenie will be ready after I'm done? The weather will be 70 Saturday, I'll ride the Duc over there and see what's up while I'm still up and running.
  4. From what I read, the CEO knew they were over producing but kept going. It was one of those "why did he do it?" critiques.
  5. So sad and a bit scary. I'd guess that significant proportion of travelers have flown through National A/P. I've flown in there more times than I can remember. I didn't know that the Potomac was also a path for air traffic not using the airport.
  6. The best deal for KTM is some benefactor -cough- Red Bull, could lease all the bikes and property for $1 and run the team for the season.
  7. I haven't posted music in a year or more. I decided to break my vow because Bob is going on tour and his first show is in my fav venue, the old "Brady" in T-town. The Tulsa Theater is just a couple of blocks from Dylan's and Woody Guthrie's Centers. It's already sold out. I'll look for tickets if my health doesn't stop me. Saw Bob in the '70's and once again 20+ years ago. I hope you saw the movie, it was dang good.
  8. Kenny Jones on drums. I saw them in Austin about that timeframe on Jul 3rd. Next day was Willie's Picnic. Quite a deal. I couldn't drive home early morning on the 5th after the picnic. Bev took the wheel.
  9. You remind me of an aircraft mechanic.
  10. wait until the timing chain is stretched............maybe 5 videos get there.
  11. Elon questions the LA Fireman at 6:50 here. I don't quite think his STEM background is stellar. Anyway, the fireman explain about stuff like the Water Works. Frankly, I'd though Elon if played any game, it would've been Monopoly.
  12. I would guess if there is a sufficient customers base, that the profit motive would get someone to back charging stations in rural areas. Why not the electric utility? And considering that rural people could charge at home and be 40 miles to the nearest gas station, perhaps those rural folks might even want an EV? So far as subsidies, there's $7b in the infrastructure budget for the next three years for charging stations- provided the new admin doesn't sequester it. So far as charging stations. Tesla has started them and promised to open them up with adapters for other cars, then promptly fired the entire charging team. Perhaps trying to ration what was originally going full on? Perhaps Tesla Charging Systems should be spun off from Tesla Car Maker? Elon can own one or the other.
  13. I'm on the 2nd go around with my Greenie's gearbox.
  14. Keep the silly car .. Adrian OTOH, wow
  15. The solid state battery is suppose to have a weight to energy mass of a gasoline. About 3 times better than current EVs. Ford was supposed have them on the market by '25 or '26 (not heard anything). China is supposed to have them now. The Ford CEO drives a Xiaomi SU7. This thing is $30k and drives (and looks) like a Taycan. He loves it.
