Eddie didn't wreck, that was a post by someone he was riding with. But yes, glad the guy is okay!

Not enough coffee & too early in the morning.

I'm with shaggy- I'd rather see "what did you do TO your SV" not "where did you ride your SV"...

That said, I removed my radiator cap and spray painted it with engine black then bolted it on... Did some other stuff too, but don't feel like posting that here. ;D

Dang, Eddie! Sorry to hear about. Glad you're OK. Give us a report when you can.

Hi Trambo, It was KC1125R that crashed his Buell, it had to be towed away. It was already gone when finished lunch and headed back up Ortega otherwise I would have taken pictures.

riding to work pretty much everyday now. feels good to be back on the road and having done all the repairs from my first crash myself http://forum.svrider.com/showthread.php?t=103654 feels really rewarding.

adjusted and lubed chain (probably adjusted a little too tight)

I bought a small lightweight floor jack, put it under the rear shock and jacked the bike up with the side stand out. This lifts the rear wheel off the ground so I can oil the chain. I put on a Suzuki gel seat and a double bubble window. Next will be a one inch rise and 1/2 inch back riser bars.
Anyone have a set cheap, or much less than the $200- plus listed price.

I took a look at my rear tire (OE with 5500 miles) and noticed that in addition to being at the wear bars, the tire was noticeably more worn on the left....certain small treads present on the right edge of the tread were worn out on the left edge of the tread. I checked the alignment and observed that the rear tire was biased to the right in relation to the front tire. I equaled it out, adjusted the free play and measured the swing arm to rear axle which, after the initial adjustment was equal on both sides. I decided to replace the rear tire so I took off the rear wheel and inspected the rear sprocket. It was a bit more worn on the inboard side. Is that consistent with the rear wheel being biased to the right?

just purchase buell xb headlight setup, cant wait to do the install.

Chet, you should let some slack back into your chain ASAP. Any error in adjusting your chain should be made on the loose side. A too tight chain will wear much faster.

big project ,someone pointed out that my rear directional wires were cross connected,rt to left,i fixed that this morning,i think i put my bikes bodywork together in poor lighting ,last time.

I used Bar Keepers Friend on my exhaust.

Looks nice but I kinda like the color the exhaust gets, it's like a patina imo.

Changed the coolant. Waiting for it to cool some so I can remove radiator cap again to see if all the air is out.

Was going to post this last night but my photobucket was on a maintenance cycle.
Rode to taco tuesday at Cook's Corner with Tom, he borrowed a CBR from 1040gal.

I was supposed to meet him at a Ralph's, then told him I wasn't going to make it. I was able to get everything done and I was there waiting for him. Right after I got done texting I saw Tom ride by cuz he thought I wasn't going to be there, lol. I caught up with him and we rode to Cook's.

Kriss got a new bike and leaving the gas station she hit a pothole and fell over.

Hooligan says last nite might have been the biggest ocmoto turnout at Cook's Corner.
