Pft! I wish! What you see there one day of paint stipper, three days of elbow grease, sandpaper, polish, and a can of Duplicolor wheel coating.

Removed forks from bike, hung forks overnight to drain all the 20wt oil. Switched my Race Tech emulators for a set of Ricor Intiminators & 5wt oil. I was skeptical about them but they are much better than emulators. Wheel stability in turns makes riding on the street fun again.

Now I'm not going to do a 43mm R6 fork swap. Would 100% recommend these valves.

Nice - we have a new powdercoater.... used to be 150 for me to do 2 wheels, now its 200 but he does great work.... black chrome is swank.

I put the TRE on my bike but didn't really feel a huge difference if anything at all taking it around the block, but I'm gonna ride it around in a little just to make sure.

You won't feel a "huge" difference......

Have you considered doing a full-on review and posting it somewhere in the forums? I am sure lots of people would find this sort of information useful.

I just "googled" them.... very interesting idea.
$300!
Of course that is cheaper and easier then a GSXR front end....but you still have the crappy SV brakes.

I went to the Triumph demo day at Ducati / Triumph in Brea.

I rode the Truxton and t100, I really liked the Truxton.

This is the new Thunderbird, no other dealer has one right now (1600 parallel twin). Wanted the Triumph girl to sit on the bike for a picture, instead I got this:

And a hug!

Eddie, I wanna be just like you when I grow up.

I met up with some Sv guys in Canton today. We went for a nice ride and had a good time. Total mileage for me was 368 miles round trip. By far my single longest one day ride for this season. Hopefully I will get many more to go along with it.

Buddy came by to pickup a K&N for his Busa. We went for a rip around town, and went home!

Did a 14.5 K valve check , oil and filter change, TB syncro check while in there, Cleaned and lubed the chain, and put a bt 021 on the rear.

WOW! Thanks....I might just have to get some of those! I really like the idea and from what I read it's a well thought out product....but the price had a bit of a pucker! Not anymore! Thanks!

Well seeings that my newly accuired 2002 needs a little TLC I gave her some LOVE. Recovered the front and rear seats, Installed a new rear rotor, Installed new brake pads all the way around, and Installed my new RoadLoK. Tomorrow is Fluids day for her oil and brake fluids will get replace.

Thanks for the reminder I have to get the Carbs cleaned as well

Went to the HB doughnut shop, then headed to the canyons but the roads I usually take were blocked off for a race / marathon.

Came home, changed oil and air filter instead.
