    Winter so Far !!

    been doing a few projects on the bike and thought i would share. Besides, i'm bored.

    Stainless Brake lines and new EBC Extreme Pads

    New Braking SK Rotors, Front



    And rear..



    Exup Valve Removed. Fabbed a cover plate and Bypass for the Servo.



    Installed Some Frame Plugs to Cover the ugly holes...



    Finally got the Sato rearsets on the bike...



    Which led to having to relocate the brake resevoir



    Also did new proton flush mounts, mirror block-offs, and a bar end mirror.

    And here she sits in my basement waiting on the Two Brothers Exhaust that's on the way.





    Like I said.... I'm bored

    Very nice.

    Bored, I know the feeling. Parking the bike in the garage these days, sideways in front of where I park my car. So now I see it every day when I pull into the garage after work. It is eating me.

    I finally got off my ass and ordered the new fork springs I'd been eying forever. Now I need to figure out how to pull forks apart...

    yeah, it's alright. My buddy left his bike over here in the basement for the winter. I think he's almost as crazy as me when it comes to buying stuff for the bike..

    what he doesn't know, is that i'm gonna wait till finishes buying new stuff then i'm gonna part it out to buy more stuff for mine and tell him someone stole it

    Don't hate... the price ws right and the black series matches the bike....

    the frame plugs cost me 5 bux at the hardware store and they do clean up the look..

    i did the good stuff first.. i'm getting desperate for things to add

    Come on Spring!!
