Scooter Cannonball day 12

The start of if anyting can go wrong it will kind of day. My shifter was very sloppy like 20 deg of slop. Got up early to adjust the cables. When I went to loosen the lock nut on the adjuster, the cable block broke at the rear cable. Click on the pic above for a larger view. This was the first of several piano wire fixes today. Frazzeled gear cable, replaced that. Cracked cooling shroud, screws gone, 14mm screw wallowed out, piano wired it to the muffler. Cooling shroud flopping around disintegrated spark plug cap after breakfast, flooded carb. Yellow plastic filler tube from jerry can broke off in the fuel tank at my third fuel stop, it's floating around the inside now. Piano wire sheared off fan shroud, ground wire in head set came loose, no lights after dark...

Nice dinner however at Bagel's Mom's house, Thank you so much Virginia and Gene.
