Yesterday I ordered a case, steel, and some red and yellow LED light strips, so I can make my rack and top case.
 
Today I installed the new sprockets I got last week. 16T front and 43T rear. Man, it's just down right nasty on take-off now. It takes a some work to keep the front end down under hard acceleration even in 3rd gear. Now I just need to find a stump that needs pulling. I imagine my feelings will be hurt at the gas pump from now on but it's well worth the loss in mileage for the extra boost in acceleration.
 
The Rizoma Zero 11's arrived today. So, now I'm really drooling and anxious to start installing the shock, LED's, throttle cables, etc. Whoooooooooo, Hoooooooooooooo! Happy Girl, Happy Girl. :)
 
Those tank grips look sweet. I especially like the black on the white bike. Where did you get those? Do they come in clear (I like the black but don't think it would look good on Copper.
They are TechSpec pads. I ordered them off Ebay. They have a precut set and a pair of 7"x13" squares. I ordered the squares, Luis drew the pattern, I cut them out, Luis stuck them on, and I still had enough left to make a grip pad for the seat cowel. I am pretty sure they dont have clear.

cleaned the spark plug drain hole pulled the plug cleaned it out put in an old plug I still had, put on some dielectric grease and got the SV325 back up to 650. Then rode to work but found my front brake apparently has a leak or something as they are now squishy again. hmmmm.
 
Looked at the track bike....frustrated with the body work:
