Shimano 685 11 speed brake/shifters, Wolftooth Tanpan SH11 so I can use an MTB 10 speed clutch mech, One Industries Rad Cage on the Zee mech to clear the cogs.
It's a bit dodgy on the 40t, so I think I'll be using it as a 10 speed 11-35 cassette with a 40t spoke protector.
May even go from the 36t front to a 34t which will let me move the chainline in a couple of mm.
I don't do high speed stuff , so top end isn't so important.
Got the fork seals done on the FransAlp today.
Apparently that was the blackest, dodgyest oil he'd ever seen come out of a pair of forks
It's his old boss's old bike...
Puncture day today
Oh well, about time I had another. It's been a few years.
Large screw right through the middle of a tread block.
yep..thats one time a HD tube cant help eh! was at a mates place today and we spotted a rivet shank hanging out of his tyre, where do these things come from?

Dead battery time today.
Was very hesitant to start after a few days laid up with the forks seals being done, but the was fine.
Thought it was on it's way out. There's a few bulges in the sides of it...
Pulled the DR650 one and it's the same size, shape and terminals are correct
The old MotoBatt in the DR650 only lasted 4 years and 46,000km and the new one (cant remember the brand) has heaps more CCA.

90% of all Harleys built are still on the road... The other 10% made it back home...
Ducati... Makeing riders into mechaincs since 1964...
Just finished building my new lightweight tubeless wheels for the Anthem.
New:
WTB Frequency Team i25 rim, DT Swiss Competition double butted spokes, Hope Pro 2 EVO hub, Ashima rotor.
1095g
Old:
Stock Giant P-XC2 19mm internal.
1060g
Oh well, at least they'll be wider and lighter without the tube...
The rear however, is 200g lighter than the old one...
The bike should feel totally different to ride though.
The stability of wheels tensioned to 120kgf +/- 5% with 25mm internal rims vs the old 17mm rear and 19mm front and should be sweet
