Summer Heat: Recent Rides and Projects – MOTO2N | Denver

This is the earliest in the year Denver has ever recorded 30 days of temps in the 90s, according to the National Weather Service in Boulder.

Start by getting all hot and sweaty, then go for a ride on your bike. You’ll cool right off in no time!

This weather is something else. I don’t remember it being *this hot* for *this many days in a row* ever here in Colorado.

Vintage Rides: IT250

My little brother snapped a pic of me jumping my old dirt bike.

Here’s a pic of me when I was 16 jumping a then 5-year-old bike:

Time flies! I can still hit jumps like this, but I won’t do it on an antique. I corner a hell of a lot faster these days than I ever did when I was a kid. 😛

XR250 Gets its Summer Back

I can do tire changes on most scooters and pretty much all dirt bikes.

I do NOT have the equipment necessary to do a good job changing the tires on your sportbike, metric cruiser, or Harley. Speaking of Harleys, I don’t work on them at all.

Carb Clean on a Ninja 250

This Ninja 250 sat for a while, and its pilot jets got plugged up. I was in and out in a couple hours. What did not run before runs well now!

Asshole’s Garage T-Shirts

My little brother has worked for the same garage for going on 10 years. More than 10 years? At any rate, the owner had some cool shirts made.

If you’re in the Springs and need help with a car or truck, give them a call. The number’s right there on the back of the shirt. And congrats to Lewis, the owner. 10 years in business is a serious accomplishment!
