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)

go SLLLLLOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW
the slower the better -- plan on a while. i think mine took me almost 2 hrs to put on
. give the rims a solid cleaning w/ soap and water or brake-dust remover, and then right before you put them on, grab a sock or cotton t-shirt or something and some pure isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and rub down the side bits (where the stripes go). let it evaporate 100% and then go to down .and post pics when you're done
the first 2-3 stripes will look like ****, lol. the last one will go on amazingly straight.

Yesterday, M4 carbon high mount. And of course a ride for a couple hours.
It sounds so good now.

adjusted the chain and installed the gpr on my gixxah
Rode her yesterday on the Cherohala Skyway, and today rode 129 down to 74, then east to 28, then south to Franklin, then came back on 1310 (Wayah Rd) through the Nantahala and around Wayah Bald, back to 74, thenup 129 to Robbinsville. LEOs are already out on the Dragon, so we blew it off. Saw one ranger on the Cherohala, and a local LEO in Tellico Plains while we were eating lunch.
It was a good weekend.
Wayah Road has some very tight switchbacks. Unfortunately, we were stuck behind five couples on HDs from Florida. Either they'd never seen a twisty before or they were totally new riders. 15 mph on the switchbacks was almost dangerous. I stayed back from them praying that they didn't go down from going so slow. Took us a good 10 miles to finally get around them. I want to do it again without the slow riders. Think it'll be a blast.

Yesterday - Checked valve clearances (ALL OUT OF SPEC ) so now I have to wait until Tuesday to get my dealer to order up some shims.
And I installed a 2007 636 rear shock.
Today I rode to work, enjoying the new rear shock and trying to feel it out to see what needs to be adjusted.
The list of things to do seems to be growing instead of shrinking...
