What did you do to your bike today?

[redprodigy35]

Had some good time on the bike this weekend. Rode 3 hours on Sunday with a 5 min break midway for coffee and a smoke. Wasn't tired from the seating position at all.

• Applied Face Lift Unlimited Blue Wheel Stripe Decals
• Checked Tire Pressure
• Tightened Windscreen (Got some light buzzing while riding)

I synched my throttle bodies, adjusted the shift lever, and installed some Bikemaster handlebars, gained a little rise and a little pullback, now the riding position is something I can maintain for long periods of time.

Made some good progress on the custom luggage rack my buddy is brazing up, can't wait. That one will require a whole thread with pics, unless we screw it up.

I got to ride tonight!!! Took the bike a few miles down the road to the local car show. Felt so good. But I can tell I'm still not up to riding to work.

Jon,,, Great to hear that you were back in the saddle... felt good huh? I am afraid my 6R is in my garage,it has been raining since Tuesday and supposed to keep raining rest of this week.

Last night I removed the windscreen, went to a 17 tooth front sprocket and filled up the tank. I rode to work this morning and loved both mods. The RPMs came down about 900 and the wind is much more manageable now.:america:

Thanks Klaus. That is two bits of information I've been looking for. In keeping with the post, I went out to the garage to see if my bikes were still dry in the wettest April on record.

Oh I forgot, I had to fix my turn signal on my FE, it came unhooked in the wiring. Good thing I did my pre-ride inspection! Didn't get to check the tire pressure though and my dads compressor was MIA and the one at Wawa never fills my tires up. When I drop it off tomorrow I'll clean the chain.

I install a 12V outlet the other day on my ride to hook up the GPS and whatever for the next big trip. I also can plug in my 12V compressor... I got that a while back because my wife had a very low tire on her car and I didn't want to destroy the sidewall driving to the gas station... I love multifonctionality! :thumbup:

Reinstalled the fairings, installed Shogun sliders, installed the plate for my SW Motech trunk.

 

[ajskillz13]

Rode it for an hour and got it up to 83 mph... Fastest I've ever been on two wheels! Not gonna lie, I was like... Mmmmkk, that's enough. Won't be a regular activity for me, but it was a he'll of a rush!

 

[HurricaneHeather]

Got it registered in my name today.

Got it registered in my name today.

That's funny because I mostly, as in they closed before I could return with my check book, registered mine in Louisiana from Mississippi. I'll get the tag in the morning before work

Missing the right tool

Just received my T-Rex No Cuts in the mail today. Got off work and rushed home to get em on and take some pics before the sun went down...but guess what? I somehow misplaced one of the allen keys from my metric set. Just happened to be the 8mm size needed to take out the engine mount bolts. How lame is that? I guess this will just have to wait til another day

Washed my bike. Swear I saw it smile.

Another Indiana rider! Finally!

Looked at her sitting under the cover getting wet, as I pulled away in the cage. I will be breaking her out tomorrow...

Agreed! That's a pretty stressful ride. I haven't been on the interstate, yet. I'm sure it will be an intimidating experience.
