I was riding tight single lane, like Baxter, but with a NXR150, a
little dual sport bike with 19' front and 18' rear wheels.
I was last month on vacations and went to Montevideo, Buenos Aires,
Rio de Janeiro, Paraty, Crato and several other little towns around
Brasil. The aforementioned bike belongs to my father in law who let me
ride it around town and to make short trips where a bike is much
better than a car in many very small towns in brazilian "sertao".
I spent an entire day to replace steering head bearings, wheel
bearings, chain/sprockets and fork seals and clean the carburetor on
my trusty CG125 "Titanic". Thing still hesitates when I crack open
throttle at once. Overly rich mixture highly suspected. Will drop
needle one notch and/or shop for a step leaner pilot jet. I miss my
trail bikes... :( But everything has it's timing and I am sure I will
get back to them when time (& available toy money) allows. I was
reading ISF reports and seeing pictures. Looked like a great fest!
Wait for me in 2012, ok? ;)
Montevideo has the best barbecue. Ever. Don't believe anyone who say
it isn't.
