    Clutch cover mod done. :party2:

    Got the replacement decal for the front fairing today, and I ordered a shit ton of parts & paid Toe for the used right fairing he has.

    Everything goes well & I'll have lots to post next week.

    Well, it aint perfect...

    Still waiting on mirrors, bar ends, and thanks to the careless fucker I live with: a REPLACEMENT FRONT COWL :mad2: but it's rideable.

    TC's old right fairing showed up today, so I threw it back together. I'll change out the front cowl when I do the HID upgrade.

    Oh- y'all are gonna LUV how I hid the scuffs on the rear cowl...

    I'm surprised somebody didn't try some psych on this guy and offer him 200 bucks for the bike to preserve his sanity. Come to think of it, I may do just that.

    A disaster is when it is raining and then a tornado hits your street and takes out your house and everything in it and all books and artwork are ruined and important legal documents and you are 50+ years old. Your neighbors cannot help because they were wiped out too.

    The Red Cross offers you free coffee.

    What you have is a disappointment.
    What you have CAN be repaired and you have a nice home and garage to do the repair at.

    I am sorry for what happened to your bike but I am glad you are not hurt.

    When the young guys at the coffee shop see your bike they will think ,WOW this guy RIDES this thing to the limit! He is no......
    You need a winter project right?

    The mailman just showed up with most of my loot :party2:

    Didn't take long to throw it on: Now I have all new carbon-fiber China-Bay bar ends, mirrors & levers, and the CORRECT gps cradle (the last one fit, but was for the "wide" model...) The tail bag should be here in time for the weekend!

    Maybe I'll luck out & the rest of the Toe Cutter Inc. pre tested plastics will show up before I leave for school...

    Thanks!

    They were individually wrapped with that perforated vehicle wrap shit people use to have custom commercial banners put over thier rear glass on trucks / vans etc... It was the previous owner who did that. Next time I pull 'em out I'm gonna do somethin... different...
