Got the Ural running last night. I think all it needs now is a carb balance. Started to take the head off the KLR, but it might be overly ambitious to think it might be done for Friday.
If we show...

I bought them through BikeBandit with my discounts and Bonus Bucks. I'm guessing they'll probably be OEM. I didn't know any better. Honestly, it's become such a money pit that I'm ready to get it...

Picture approval gladly given.
I'm hoping I've got something to ride by then. Ural is still twisted up and the KLR isn't behaving at all. Hell, I might just show up to drink beer.

Float level for the win!
The tube on the carb bowl was giving me odd readings, so I undid the bowl screws and emptied the bowl. Then I stood the bike up, holding the bowl in place and turned on...

It's Alive!
Been a while since I did the work, but I've been busy. Memorial Day weekend I replaced the cam chain, checked valve clearance, put it back together and started it on the second kick. Good times!

I ordered a new cam chain, installed it, and it runs again! Better than ever, in fact (although I've only put maybe 200 miles on it). Anyway, it appears that, in my haste to get it running and give...

I'll adjust the valves the first chance I get. Seems odd that they'd seat in after 200 miles (the last adjustment), but what have I got to lose. At WOT, it should be the main, but I think the needle...

After finally getting my little KLR project "done" I decided to ride it to work on Friday. I've been riding it around for a couple of weeks and everything has been fine. Less than stellar gas milage...

Z-Rig Ural extraction question
Rather than load up the trunk of my Ural with a cable-type comealong, I've been thinking about getting the hardware and rope to set up a Z-Rig if I get stuck. My thought is, it'll take up less room...
