    Yup, Going to go for a spin after work for a few minutes, then take my bike apart again to do a another little somethin' somethin'. Then put it together for the weekend. I'm working MSF this weekend, but should free late afternoons.

    02T, are you and TLRman still getting together this weekend?

    Yea, he's going to be headin' to my place Saturday morning so we can do the work on my bike, and then I plan on riding as much as possible, seeing as how it's supposed to be close to 70 degrees and sunny. What area are you going to be in teaching?

    We have a BRC running in Dover NH, I'm just a pee-on range-aid until the rider-coach cert class in August.

    its your stock damper(if you have one). Suzuki seems to skimp on lube in there.

    My last TLR did that, I replaced it with a Bitubo shock. The squeak was gone. It was an expensive fix for just a squeak though. hehe

    I was chomping at the bit all day yesterday. Look out the window, check the thermometer, take a look at the dirt road, work a little, repeat... 5:02 I was in my leathers pulling the bike out of the garage. Nice quick spin up to the Smugglers Notch access road and back. The roads are still sandy, but clearing quick...

    Yea I have the stock suspension..... with all those linkages in there I'm bound to be able to throw some lithium grease in there and at least quiet it down a bit.

    hehe... if I spent the time to take it out to do that, I would be crying putting it back in. That's definitely the cheaper way to go though.

    I just went out for my first ride of the season on the RC. Felt good, did 40 miles. The heated grips felt nice too.
