FedEx expedited shipping is no joke. Order originated in England yesterday and this morning was already departing the FedEx hub in Tennessee. Looks like I may get it by Friday.

*edit
Already out for delivery. Wtf? That was crazy fast coming from the UK.

For all those interested in this mount, I won't have it till tomorrow, but did take the yoke nut off today and can confirm the size ordered should definitely be correct. Yoke 50 which is 30mm socket, 22mm inside diameter. I measured mine just to make sure. I'll post pics if I get it on tomorrow.

The Yoke 50 Ram mount 30mm socket size/22mm thread size is confirmed to be the correct size. Here's a couple pics I just snapped and a link to the mount. So much better than being mounted on the clip-on.

Just a FYI, the company that makes the mount is in England. The standard shipping takes 18-26 days per their their ordering info. Expedited (FedEx) cost me $15 and the order made it to my door in 1 day. Well two because the FedEx driver was special.

Yep, Only costs 7 dollars more for the expedited shipping. Definitely doing that. Clip ons got shipped out today, grips, and bar ends should be at my door today. My new seats from Dirtroad Eddie are done. He sent me pics today and will be shipping them tomorrow morning. Should have them on the bike middle of next week.

Nice, I've added a bunch of stuff the last 2 weeks. Last thing I'm waiting on is my stomp grips (tomorrow) and need to install my 12v outlet. Thinking of wiring a map switch for my PCV and switch to my Angel eye in case I'm out of state and get grief from the popo.

Had to install my new 12volt outlet before going to bed (working 3am-3pm all week). I have the one that hooks to my battery tender pigtail, but like the outlet better.

Had to readjust my woodcraft clip-ons. I installed a 12 volt outlet in the inner plastic and realized the throttle housing hit it. Moved bars in and rotated them a little, because brake lever contacted the housing. Had to remove my throttle lock though due to the changes which sucks.

Awesome. Hoping to do that on Monday. Still have some class a tests to do but as long as those go fine the skills test should be a breeze.

I took the left side faring off so I could see how easy it is to de-restrict and then after putting it back together I took it for about a 2.5 hr ride to Mt Nebo and Mt Glorious...... Didn't push to hard today - fair bit of traffic.......Always fun in the mountains

Not to worried about the skills test. It's been almost 7 years since the last time I took the class a written test. That's when I'll have to remember to breathe:)

Do you have to re-license every few yrs then? Here once you pass thats it. Just have to renew license every 5yrs but no further testing once you have it. Thats for cars as well as bikes.

No. Only when I want to add a endorsement. To add the Moto endorsement I have to take a total of 7 written tests and the skills test. Still have 3 written to do.
