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)

Since it might possibly rain (or at least sprinkle) for the first time in about 9 months, I decided to set up my SV for winter riding comfort. Because, well, the temperatures might drop into the low 50s.

1966 vintage Bates 700A touring fairing. Now I scoff at the cold, and flip the bird to threatening skies.

Hey, if it was good enough for an R60/2, it's good enough for my SV!

Will this visual torture even end?
Not exactly today, but a couple of nights ago I got a replacement right rear seat fairing in to replace the damaged one that came on the bike. This was the last thing still remaining on the bike that looked ugly.
When I went to install it, I saw that I had easy access to the rear brake reservoir and decided to bleed the rear brake. I also had easy access to a spot of rust on the seat subframe that I had bee meaning to take care of so I hit that with some rust converter. More work than I had set out to do that night, but knocked a couple things off my todo list.

Nope and nope. Of course, I'll be checking the bike over a little more carefully over the weekend.

The guy who hit me is actually a close friend who was following me at the time. He's also a rider himself. He feels terrible about it. I told him I'll let him know if I find any damage that I missed on my roadside inspection. I have no doubts that he'll take responsibility and pay if I find more damage.

I put Hippo Hands on a couple of days ago so I could ride for a couple of days while the weather is "nice". We're going to have highs in the low 20's for most of next week, so riding is over for a while.
Oh yea, I washed the bike after the rides to get the salt off. Winter: it sucks.
