Finally got the Pilot Powers installed. Wow, much nicer than the 8-yr old OEM Dunlops!!

:rock: I remember when I went to Pilots and dumped the Dunlops. It was a glorious day. Just take it easy till the glossy part is gone and then find some twisties

 

[Chuckles_5.0]

Put the Motosliders and lower fairings on, and with that I can say today I officially completed all repairs from the tumble!

Fiberglass work on all my race fairings.. What a bunch of fun. A better note, going to try on some alpinestars suits at cycle gear.

Throttle body's are synced up. The right tools for a job make these things so much easier. Thank you Carbtune! Just need to do brake fluid then the bike will be ready to go. Also bought a exo1000 helmet from motorcyclegear.com. Should get that at the beginning of the week.

first service, 661miles.

Got it out of the garage the first time since November (cold and snowy winter), rode it to get it inspected, and bought some Pilot Power 2CT's to replace the D220's (has 5,000mi)

I can't wait to get the 2CT's mounted! We have 40+ mph winds at the moment so riding is out...

I picked up my plastics and ta from the paint shop today. I just finished installing them! Best part, NO EXTRA BOLTS!!! ;D

 

[Featherburner]

Rolled it onto my new bike lift.

 

[arget]

Stuck a bolt through the hole in my shift lever/pedal. It's aftermarket and the stupid peg fell off on the highway home as the peg was held in by an allen bolt.

 

[FezDaForeigner]

Topped off the brake fluid
Rode her home from the shop, only an hours worth of labor to clean and sync the carbs, not bad.
Tightened loose bolts
Adjusted gear lever to my height
Put on my faux carbon gas cap sticker
Bent my homemade gauge bracket to the right angle
Moved it back into its normal position of the garage so that the car can be parked there again

 

[Bigham]

Some TLC-clean and wax, chain lube and a nice ride to clean out the cobwebs

 

[dry_humor]

swapped the blown engine for an 04 replacement since thats what i could afford. runs like a champ. total project probably took less than a day.

win.

 

[zabrow187]

I went though my bike and made sure all my nuts and bolts were tight and secure. Gave it a bath, cleaned and lubed the chain, and chopped my muffler. Next weekend is an oil change.

 

[marlonjb007]

Put gas in the tank. I had my bike painted so the tank was empty. I gave it a few cranks and fired it up. She's ready for spring.

 

[608svs-06]

^^Liking the black on black frame.

 

[PainfullySlow]

Finished buttoning up the motor, all set to put it into the frame and hopefully fire it up for the first time tomorrow.

 

[FezDaForeigner]

Noticed I still have a leak at the valve cover.
Rode it to a big group ride
Tightened the brake lever mounting bolts.

 

[pjed]

Finally finished with my track bike and put the SV on the platform. Started taking the back end apart.

Got an F3 wheel I'm swapping out with a brand new Driven sprocket and a nice BT-016. Goodbye Shinko (put on by PO)...you will not be missed!

I noticed that the rear brake dragged when the bike was on a stand. Here is the rear caliper. Apparently the PO wasn't into changing brake pads.:sbmfacepalm:

 

[pjed]

Here's a better pic of the "pads".

 

[BKK Jack]

Those look like they have a couple thousand mile left in them. ;D Seriously, who uses their back brake that much?
