Just thought this would be a cool new topic. If there is already one in existence please let me know so I can delete this one, or a mod can do it. As for me I finished my under tail project and rode the crap out of it.
What did you do to your SV today? (mods, farkles, maintenance, etc)

Topped the oil and lubed the chain, then rode home in the rain for an hour...no gloves...wasn't that cold. Waited for the 325 to kick in, but it never did...so either my spark plug/boot treatment worked or it just wasn't wet enough...can't wait till the next big storm to find out! woohoo!

Over-torqued?
Changed the oil and filter, installed a buffer and spacer between where the exhaust mounts on the bottom (buffer was broken, spacer was missing), adjusted the air pressure, added spools, removed and greased the axle, replaced the cotter pin with a hitch pin... lotsa little stuff. I also ordered some gear for winter.

Cleaned up my storage unit so I can put the bike back in there, plus do some work on it and keep it out of the elements.
Then cut off the stock can and installed the new Delk Stubby.
Tomorrow I hope to put on the new Pazzo levers, work on my seat cowl, figure out what I need for brackets for a belly pan, and possibly put on some new grips. Might reinstall the Duc fairing as well.

Tried not to rev it too much, since I'm not really supposed to do shop type work at my storage unit, which backs right up to a bunch of folks back yards. Figure complaints about on a Saturday night probably wouldn't go over too well. Wish I could have ridden some with the straight pipe, but probably better I didn't.
