Surgery to improve her front end!!!

[Half Squid]

Not what you were thinking!!! Got to look huh!

I took the bike apart tonight and did the oil change swapped out my rear rim and sprocket so I can ride till my new tire/sprockets and chain get here next week. Seems the sprocket I want is on back order.. Anyways I have been meaning to do this conversion to the 03 front fairing, so here it is off the bike.. I like it!

Here's a reference as to what it looks like prior the new front and trick tape.

Now on the bike. A few updates as well as the cowling, I have Carbon fiber looks mirrors as well as brake and clutch levers, silver tape work headlight covers and a aluminum speed screen instead of the black stock. Added a few decals and gave her a great cleaning then wax her! Nice N shiney!

Well as it stands right now I have an issue with the brake lever.. Fuggin trigger for engaging and disengaging the brake light does not have a stiff enough spring to push the lever all the way to the off position. So what I found out the hard way last night is the brakes stayed on the whole time I was riding. Meaning the were just very bright tail light, leaving me no brake lights. Ok I can try to fix that. On top of that issue because of the heat created it melted the bulb into the housing and made a burn mark in my aftermarket clear lens and just made a god dam mess.. Took me about 45 minutes, but all is well with the tail light/brake light, but the stock brake lever is on until I can figure how to fix it, (Maybe better spring?) or send it back... Only thing I care about right now is riding up at Laconia so i am happy for now!!!!

Leaving tomorrow with my RC and Trackdogs S-Hawk and a ton of stuff loaded up! We'll be staying @ Stonners! Hit me up on the Nextel when you go up. I think Friday I might try to do a ride, Saturday and Sunday will most likely be track day visits unless it rains, and Thursday/Friday night over to Weirs to Pose and check out 1/2 naked chicks and lots "O" Bikes!!
