Very cute pix of baby in motorcycle helmet. I like one with crying baby in helmet and I bet it's loud inside with his voice
Yesterday, I finally got my Suzuki Volusia inspected and got license plate!!! I was planning to take riding test just block from DMV. As I pulled over to parking lot with motorcycle on trailer where riding test were underway. As soon as I got out and it started to sprinkle. The Examinator saw me and he pointed upward and shake his hand hinting me "It's gonna rain and maybe cancelled". I walked to DL place and stood in line hoping it's just a sprinkle that go away. The guy in front me in line were talking to me. I motioned him with finger pointed to my ear and shook a bit. He realized I'm deaf. So He asked me how am I doing. I told him doing fine and planning to take riding test. He said ME TOO!! So we both are thrilled. While standing in line and waiting, few minutes later, He got phone call and turned around me and waved his hand across his neck and pointed through window. OOOHHH NOOOO!! It's pouring out and Riding test been cancelled. We both just skipped the line and head out to parking lot on our way. I saw guy who was in the middle of riding test was disappointed that it was cancelled and Examinator left. The guy decide to practice even if it's rainy. I can tell he's a real Rookie cuz he stalled his friend's Harley
The guy who were front of me was riding scooter and I drove my truck with motorcycle on trailer, he was surprised that I had nice motorcycle and thumbed up at me. I pulled over and made a quick visit to guy who was on motorcycle and asked him if he know what's needed be done on riding test. He said nope, I did not get all so I don't know.
Oh well!! At lest, my motorcycle IS LICENSED and Insured!!! So I can ride around neighborhood more freely without worrying about Cop catching me without License plate. I did rode several miles to store across highway and head back. The cop drove past by me and not even check on me Whew!! (I still have Motorcycle Permit tho). I rev up bike more on straight stretch on back road beside highway then rode around Rounda then go leaning around curves at 35mph with no issue. I did jackrabbit start on intersection that cross the highway when light turned green and reved and shifted up to 45 mph then slowed down several blocks down. My bike was pretty fast going
My bike was idling slow and nearly died so when I got home, I remember that there are Idle adjustment knob underneath gas tank just sticking out of carb. The Idle Adjustment screw was connected with simple tube to Idle jet on Carb. I just simply popped the Idle Adjustment knob from clip and straighten the tube and then tune the Idle. I just tweak it and it idle a little faster. My son told me it sound more quiet when its idling a bit faster. Strange.
Later in the evening when it became dark, I decide to head out with motorcycle and wear helmet. I rode to Hwy K-7 and rode 65 mph for a mile then slow down to exit to Shawnee Mission Parkway loop leaning on ramp at 40mph. I was wearing T-shirt and it shook violently on highway speed
Then off the ramp and sped up to 60mph on Parkway and stopped at stoplight. I saw Honda Touring motorcycle with small trailer hitched to it turning left on other side of intersection. The rider waved at me :smile: and when light was green, I rev up back to 55mph to next stop light and turned left to Monticello Rd and head back home. It was fun ride but not much of adrenaline rush tho. I was wee bit leery but getting used to it.
I plans to go back to DL place this Tuesday (they closes Monday) and take riding test to get over with. I spoke with guy about motorcycle riding test at Rental place where I rented Motorcycle trailer, he told me that it is easy and you shouldn't have any problem with it. He thumbed up at me and wish me luck.
Motorcycle Trailer at rental place cost $14 a day. Cheap lol.
