I know to most of you this is no big deal but to me it's huge! I finally got the book on my duc so this evening I went out to the shop and changed all the fluids by myself!!!

I am very proud! I have never messed with anything mechanical so for me this is a very big step! Jeeps checked my work and said it was A OK so I'm proud! I did see that the rubber thingies on the carb were bad but I now know that it's called diaphragms

That's my next project!

That's great....now get up here and help with mine!

Good job. It's so satisfying to do things yourself. And you know those bolts are tight and the right amt. of fluid is in there.

Good job.

Good job! Maybe I should call you from now on before I fuck with my bike!

Congrats on getting it done! Its starts with small project and then you just work your way onto new things.

Congrats on the first step! Isn't it fun?

Goood times! After a few times you'll know it's not too hard just a pain in the ass. I always start with a 12 pack of High Life. I crack the first one after I bleed the brakes and change the oil. At 3 I lube and adjust the chain and go over all the bolts. From 5-12 I wash, detail and dry...
