Julie's Birthday

March 12, 2011

Julie's Birthday… Rode hard to Puerto Escondido. About 150kms from our destination, my bike starts doing a funky chicken with the ABS light coming on and going off and then my dash starts going dead and coming back on and then the fuel injection light comes on and the FI starts flashing on the dash… Passing a vehicle, the bike starts missing and then dies in the middle of nowhere. Oh Shit! Dead battery! Remove the battery from my bike and start removing Michael's, the battery connections is seized and corroded. Drill the top of the battery bolt and switch batteries. Pulled the headlight fuses and push started Michael's bike, which now has my battery. Road to Puerto Escondido and just as we found a hotel the bike quits again. Beer time!! 6:30 at night. Sun going down the only thing left to do is dinner and cervasa.
