What did you do to your bike today?

[BoneJj]

it's this one: 6 Speed Red Universal Digital Gear Indicator for Motorcycle Display Shift Level Sensor

I had a different one called "Datatool" on another bike which is connected to the tscho wires, but this one is way cheaper and easier to install with the same end result.

damn, 18 bucks on flea-bay. Almost worth it just to see if it works...

I'll have to take a hard look at my bike and see how much of a pain in the butt it will be to setup.

Broke her down and removed the headlight...shipped it off to Chad for the retrofitting!

So how long did it take you?

Less than 2 hours. I followed an older thread, but ill put together a new one in my thread with annotations and steps...it definitely helps to have pics and feedback if you've never done it before.

Also got the newly released black V35 bags today!!

Tightened up my chain, cleaned it and found some clean chain lube finally. Ordered Shogun frame sliders and underbody light kit to match my very near future paint job. Oh yea, went for a nice long ride.

Installed the Givi FZ364 Rack that purchased from Nismos today.

Received my Front/Rear Spiegler Brake lines - not installed yet.

I attended a group ride & was on the street for maybe 4 hours today. My girl is going to need to be washed tomorrow. I like my bike looking clean!

 

[BKP]

Re-tensioned, cleaned/lubed the chain... Lubed the cables (that EZ Glider kit makes it a piece of cake).

Oh... and tested a new RAM suction mount... held on to everything I stuck it to, over bumps, and up to 85mph...

I installed LEDs in front. I connected them to my flush mounts, so i have them working as turn signals and running lights. Will post pictures later.

I'd like to hear more about these, I take it these are 3 wire type LEDs.

Or did you use a relay to add in the functionality of blinker?

 

[ArmyFZ6R]

The LED are only 2 wires. I added a resistor and diode to my flush mounts and then just connected the LEDs to the same wiring. Real easy to do. I used the step by step instructions from one of the threads here.

Rode it & cleaned it!

Actually, Mr. Smarty Pants, I did everything above, accept pull the decals..

Mr. Smarty Pants is it? Brother, I wasn't trying to be an ass, I was just sayin' if you're doing a "proper cleaning" then that's what's involved. Just a couple times a year for me.

You'll see the chain guard in the far right on the below pic. Truth be told? Though you and I consider that a proper cleaning, it's not a "full" cleaning.

Back when I had my '82 CB900F Supersport? There are guys on that forum, with pics, who literally take the bike apart to clean it over the winter. I'm talking frame down. Way to hardcore for me.

It was good to get the parts of the tank that are always inaccessible because of the plastic. Same for the other parts of the bike and plastics.

It's all been washed and waxed for protection.

My son and I did this on this Easter Sunday. What a great day it was. Here's the result:

Oh, and that's my Givi's with the rack, too! Damn but that bike looks good! Holy cow! It's got my adrenaline up just looking at those pics!

Installed one of these on my helmet today. Not sure if i'll use it all the time but see a lot of guys using them. Cost about 10 bucks & let's you put the helmet on/off much faster.


Echo Quick Release: How to add a Quick Connect to Your Helmet Strap - YouTube

Installed this today. Got it off eBay for $8. I'm always looking for ways to simplify the way I put all my gear on. Not only is it a breeze to install but for $8 it was a no-brainer. Not only do I save time several times a day but now I don't have annoying straps dangling around and I don't have to re-adjust the tightness anymore. Lovin' it. Even when lowering my head to an aggresive riding position it wasn't digging into my neck. But that also depends on how tight you have your straps. Thanks Anthony for the original post.

 

[daddyrack]

Just installed the Driven 17t sproket. damn this is alot different now!! lol

 

[Scott_Thomas]

Ripped her apart to send my headlight to Chad for my retrofit.

 

[bloodypulp]

Installed my cut... Yes,cut shogun sliders

 

[nismos14]

If the weather cooperates, I'll take her for a spin today!
