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.

I replaced the Exhaust hanger/passenger foot peg with the SV Racing parts black annodized standard height hanger bracket. Looks great to me, and looks far less bulky. SV Racing Parts was great to work with and provided a quality product.

Started the afternoon off with a throttle play adjustment and idle speed tweak. Then, I gave her a nice ride up US Rt. 19 to Waynesburg, back down I-79 to Kirby (construction was on that leg of 19), then Rt. 19 back into Morgantown. After that, a nice coat of wax with extra attention where a previous owner spilt gas on her tank and didn't clean it up. She's cooling down now so I can re-check her oil level later.

Adjusted my Valves :( and started putting stuff back togeather from painting it. Came out decent, ill see if I can stand the clear down so I can get rid of the tiny orange peelyness. But all and all, it looks pretty cool. Green tank (like kawi green), everything else black exept inside the upper fairing (2nd gen) where it divits in, thats green. It looks pretty cool like that.

Put one new front cowl, lower fairing, mirror, 2 turn signals, shifter, clutch lever, and rear set from a low side. Also put one leo vince slip on, r & g sliders, pair valve eliminator, conti road attacks and gipro. Ready to ride again!

Added an R6 throttle tube and got the throttle play in the lower end of in spec. Feels MUCH better now. After that, I got a new cover for it, just a cheap double sided tarp. Would've bought a nicer one, but I think I'm going to be moving...maybe into a house with a garage... soon.
