What did you do to your bike today?

I got started this morning with sprocket and chain chain... MSStore send me the wrong rear sprocket... Maybe another one of those screw up with FZ6? Never had any issues with them in the past. So I ran out to the stealership and order a 43T... Weekend and holiday... I'll get my sprocket next Thursday! Crap... Now my bike is all apart!!!

Really easy, did a quick search and figured it out, wasnt hard at all. All you gotta do is adjust the small bolt with the little teeth looking things, this is underneath the front tire, and you just gotta turn it with a wrench left to aim the light up, and right to aim down. So counterclockwise to aim up, clockwise to aim down.

The one to the right of the plastic brake line clip, and all the little plastic bars around it.

I ended up making it too high, took it out tonight and found out I was lighting up the trees with my brights. Lol teach me to quick guess it.

No rear sprocket... but I did installed the front one (17) and the chain, I'll finish when I get the rear sprocket next week. Got some fresh oil in (almost 5000 miles in this month!)

I guess I'll finish to adjust the Desmo valves and ride the Ducati for the weekend...

I think Marthy said somewhere else he is doing work on someones Ducati. So he has to "test ride" ;) to make sure everything is ok.

My Boss has a 93 907 IE (1700 miles on it!). Nice bike for the days. I just finish adjusting the valve on it. (freaking easy!!! No big deal...) So she was begging to ride. I did a little detour on the way back home. Nice twin torque.

If I had the money... I don't have any payment right now and it's just fine... But it could change???:wreck:
 
Rode around the block even though I am not supposed too cause of my Carpral tunnel surgery and with only my right side foot rest cause haven't fixed the left one yet. I only shifted to second gear, kinda tough with no foot rest! Boy but it was fun to ride but then it hurt like hell afterwards so maybe I will stay off of it for a while.

What do you think? Worth the money?

For $770, it's worth it. To me. I love a nice growl, and this exhaust is great. It's extremely loud without the silencer tip so I might put that back in. This thing turns heads.

Currently I'm not using a PCV or JB but it honestly seems to run the exact same without one. Im still going to buy a PCV next paycheck, but I don't see a loss in power, rough idle, or anything like that. I love this exhaust.
