Brother and Mother have both had knees replaced in the last year. Both complain that they waited too long! Life is better without constant pain.

You are not too young for a new knee brother. Seems like one is in your future.

Nice day here in the mid west. Sunny and mid 50's and I was outside most of the day. Even got the 1200 out for a quick spin to pick up parts for my winter project (see pic). Bought this for cheap for my son that is retiring from the USMC after 24 years. Got it cleaned up and running pretty good and seat has been redone. Plans to buy a house and settle somewhere in the area and this will help him get started. Another project has reared up as the 1800 is dripping coolant. Hope it's not the water pump as they run over $200.

Good news is the water pump seems to be ok. The two circled clamps were both leaking and the lower clamp had to be replaced. The plumbing system is downright intimidating. System now holds pressure for a long time with no known leaks. Tomorrow I hope to get her back together and start riding again. Also sprayed some foaming cleaner in the cavity and rinsed out a lot of grime.
