Finally got my Rizomas working after I ordered some stock plugs from eastern beaver! Great company btw. Also installed Steve's ATRe which I must say it only took about 10 min. And I definitely notice the difference as I don't feel like some ******* when suddenly I bomb the throttle in 1st lol

Nudist does put the odd work of SV art together. Here is another SV he built shown here at the 2009 SV Rally. I think some of this red nekkid is now this race bike.

Oil change, cleaned and lubed the chain and reconnected a breather hose that apparently didn't get connected properly last time I had the air-box off (and cleaned a bunch of oily residue off that side of the motor) :oops:
 
Dropped the bike off to get new tires mounted and balanced. Picking up tomorrow (had to drop it off like 20 min before the shop closed but i can't wait to ride this weekend)
 
Broke in the new front tire with a 460 mile ride today :)

Glad i had some fresh tread on there. Got caught in a nasty rain storm on a two lane highway with nowhere to pull off to the side for miles. Could only see about 50' down the road. Was still soaked when I got home even though the last 180 miles were clear skies.
 
Technically yesterday, installed my SVRP 3.5" risers on my 650S. Wasn't as smooth as I initially thought. Had to fashion a home made bracket for the brake fluid reservoir out of pressed tin. Overall I wasn't impressed but it works for now until I come up with a more permanent solution that isn't such an eye sore.

The engine that went into the red bike came from the frame thats now the race bike lol
 
I put a new Spiegler line on my wife's bike today. Probably going to bleed them tonight or tomorrow.
