And then installed new china-cheapie turn signals (..also due to last week's lowside).

How's the brightness on those?

Changed the coolant. Think I'll change it again before winter storage. Hope to change oil tomorrow.

Just basic, boring stuff to keep riding the bike as boring as possible.

Rode to work to clean and lube and check/adjust the chain. Put bike on stand, cleaned chain with kerosene and looked up to see it start pouring outside.

finally tightened my chain. waited way too long and now I need a full sprocket and chain switchout.

i swear i'm gonna get to the TPS adjustment tomorrow. I swear.

I doubt waiting too long to tighten your chain killed your sprockets and chain.

i dunno. it was pretty bad. the difference between the tight spots and loose spots is pretty drastic.

Haven't gotten around to wiring the pinch bolts yet?

 

[picowatt]

Started to swap my shock for a zx14. Then realized I need a different shock bolt. Fail

Haha, no, but I keep thinking about it.

EDIT: Just did it! Nice boring Labor Day project.

I'm not doubting that your chain is toast. I'm just saying that having your chain too loose isn't what ate your chain and sprockets.

If he waited a year, and didn't lube it either in that period, it's quite possible it munched the sprockets. Especially if they're Aluminum instead of Steel.

Certainly. In that case, it wouldn't be the chain being too loose that killed the chain and sprockets; it would be lack of chain maintenance.

 

[JaySV6]

that's awesome!

Thanks Bro ;D

 

[MMM]

Finally put on 2.5" svrp clip ons. Of course it's not cooperating. So I ordered a new start stop switch so I can go back to naked cables, ordered new bar end mirrors because I broke one over tightening it, and a motion pro throttle tube for fun.

well, i've only had the bike two months, so I don't know what happened to it before that. I just know the chain is toast, and have always been told to change the sprockets with the chain. everything else is gravy.
