MY bio says Alpine, UT. His doesn't but the pic looks like a typical house in Mexico, that's why I ask.

At all......i have nothing against mexis but id hate to live up there. Im in Colombia, MedellĂ­n to be precise. And i work inside cuz sun is heavy these days

installed my gsxr speedo sensor using a ghetto bracket xD but cant test it until this upcoming morning so im going to sleep NOW
Also i put the r6 throttle tube and adjusting those cables was a real PITA. I needed to pull off the TB so i could adjust those nuts.
 
Wow, can't wait to see that bike put together!
 
Changed the oil, tested out the new powerstands econo rear stand, installed carbon fiber look tank pad, carbon fiber look belly pan, and carbon fiber fender extender. Still have to do my front tire, wheel bearings, and zx-14 shock.
 
Today I tried to replace my shortened (and way too loud) Leo Vince cans with some stock mufflers from a local, very nice guy. Unfortunately they did not fit, maybe they were off a TL? Who knows. Anyway, the search continues.
 
i have my stock muffler sitting in my garage if you want it. its cut off without the midpipe though :-\. you can have it for shipping just cause its taking up too much space.

today i bought a new to me cylinder head for the front cyclinder. all because of a broken exhaust bolt.
 
checked sprockets and adjusted my chain for the first time.
just got done with a new diy paint job. i used black truck bed liner on the gas tank and rear body assembly. should toughen it up to my belt and other metallness. plus with the recent addition of the delkevic mini it needed to look a little more like the devil and a little less like the cookie monster. though i was considering googly eyes.
 
Installed my new tank cover.
 
Rode it!!! it feels nice the r6 throttle tube after last nite nightmare installing throttle cables. Still, i cant figure how or what should i adjust to get the proper play as it is now is like .8mm instead of 2-4. Any tips will be appreciated.
 
Installed a shiny new black hugger on my naked Blue. Hope that it will protect the Hotbodies FE which has gotten chewed up a little bit. I bought a few SS washers to use as spacers as well as to cover the big mounting holes in the hugger. Didn't want the fiberglass to crack on the first ride this evening.
 
payed a dude on here for my k&n air filter. tomorrow im going to cycle gear to get some fluids. mostly just fork oil and watter wetter if they have either of those.
