Ivy Shakedown #2: Mirror and Fenders

Added the new Dime City mirrors (same ones that Roxy runs).

Got a very shiny, aftermarket fender for $75 (but still made in Japan).  Looks great.


Shakedown Round #2
  • Warm day, not ideal for slow runs
  • Ran a few good laps, very clean shifts to 2nd
  • Felt like there was no slack at clutch, so box to tighten adjusters
  • Then felt like clutch was slipping, so box again to loosen 
  • Noticed the kickstart was not clearing the exhaust, didn't fix right away, only to realize later the nut had vibrated off!
  • Engine also started to stall out even with clutch engaged.  Could have been clutch or maybe battery dying.
