Today I worked on installing my 636 shock, but hit a roadblock trying to get the dogbone bolts out, broke two 14mm sockets and learned came close to rounding them off. Learned some stuff though so I guess it's not a total loss. Impact driver here I come!

Fresh oil and filter, cleaned and lubed the chain, scraped, scrubbed and otherwise cleaned all the nooks and crannies that normally don't get cleaned. Wax her tomorrow, adjust the clutch and put the chin fairing back on, hopefully in time to get a nice ride in.

 

[Project Mayhem]

Bought one!

 

[Volley]

Packed up the seat to send to Spencer

 

[latigid]

Yesterday I installed a Traxxion AK-20 cartridge kit and new Michelin Pilot Power Pures. I'm off for a ride this morning to play with the damping adjustments and hopefully get it dialed in.

Rode yesterday idk how many miles. I would assume around 500 miles since it was 3 tanks of gas.

 

[JollyGQ]

Rode it to Rouit Flat Track Museum here in Clovis. got to see the real World's Fastest Indian and saw a bunch of beautiful bikes! Took tones of pics, but figure I shouldn't post them all here...but I gotta post this one..

 

[cmccarthy414]

[algreen]

finally adjusted the All Balls steering head bearings and took her out for a ride. Torque to 28ft.lbs, then back off one half turn plus an 1/8th.

 

[sdobbs20]

flushed the coolant system and changed it. adjusted my front preload a quarter of a turn. put on some new swingarm spools/sliders.

 

[bri_con]

New mirrors and planning a side saddle under-tail exhaust. We'll see how that works out.

Dyno'ed it. Needed a baseline for the racebike. Wanted to see where it stands now before I start fooking with it. Stock bike. Delkelvic slip on. Stock air box/air filter/ stock everything cept race gizmos. Yes I know. all dyno's are different.. blah blah. It was for the A/F mixture.

She's a little lean on the end but, pretty smooth overall. It needs a little bit of touch up but, it'll do for now. I wish there was an ECU hack for the SV650.

I been using the Boost by smith ecu program for the Turbo Busa and it's fooking awesome. This would be badass if I could use it on my SV650. .. hint hint.

 

[Volley]

Mailed seat to Spencer...no riding for a bit

 

[BirchyBoy]

Went for my first longish ride yesterday. 344 miles roundtrip from Denver to Bishop's Castle in a group ride. The gel seat was pretty good and I got about 55mpg overall. That was my first group ride in quite a while and was pretty fun.

 

[SVRayVaughan]

Spent 2 hours detailing it after getting caught in the rain riding around town. Looks good as new now.

 

[TwoWheelsCA]

Finally got the M4 and motosliders installed. Woo hoo!

 

[xj750guy]

Washed it yesterday.....got pulled over to today for a "random licence check"

Must be too pretty!

 

[Zokambaa]

Hahah.. what you've never had this happen to you before?

Every spring from now until somewhere around stampede time... or when the street cleaners have finished clearing the roads... the cops always do this crap...

it gives them an excuse to ticket bikes... 0 tolerance they say for safety... so any minor infraction can get ticked if the cop is Nazi enough...

Generally it is just to make sure the bike is insured and registered and you have the proper permit to drive a bike... they also generally give it the once over for obvious infractions like the hidden license plate down behind the tire or non functional signal lights etc...



I've been pulled over a few times in past years... but generally they let me go without issue as I try to keep the bike legal
