i love the jokes haha!

i worked all day today. coworker is parting out his SV, and i'll be buying his power commander, k&n filter, smaller l.e.d. front blinkers, and a battery tender cord.

 

Arafat goes to see a psychic. Says he wants to know ahead of time the day he will die.

The psychic says she sees a Jewish holiday....

 

Rode 50 miles on canyon roads.

Changed out the valve cores (trying to stop losing so much air out of my tires).

I'll pitch in...

A horse walks into a bar.
The bartender looks up and says: "Hey, why the long face?"

Rode to work, rode home, ate lunch, rode to work, rode home!

Ahhhh, what the heck!.......


A guy walks into a bar and orders 15 shots of whiskey in a row, as quick as the bartender lines 'em up, he downs the drinks.

"Boy, you sure can drink fast!" the bartender says.

"You would to, if you only had two dollars"

 

rode 100 miles to relax after work

 

there is already a lame joke thread.

it's called "the LAME joke thread"

 

;D

Forgot to mention that yesterday I checked to make sure the preload screws were all the way in on the forks. They wern't, so I put them in. What a difference, If making that little change was such an improvement, then I can't wait till i get new springs, just moved to the top of my mod list.

 

Replaced the front brake pads.

 

Repaired and repacked my M4 muffler. I cut about 4" off of the end to get rid of the crash damaged part. Heat cycled the motor a few more times. I should be ready to take the first post-rebuild test ride tonight.

 

Washed and waxed it and cleaned and lubed the chain so I can ride it to work tonight.

 

Unfortunately, loaded the SV into the new owner's pickup and waved goodbye. Being responsible and paying tuition for family members is much less fun than riding. Hopefully get another SV in a year or two.

 

i have taken off my stock exhaust to make way for my new leo vince full system. finally got the rear header bolts off which claimed a u-joint and an adapter. i also just installed some no-cut motosliders for the fully faired sv. And today i took my gsxr forks to the mechanic to get them checked and the seals replaced before i start my front end swap.

 

Installed an SW motech rack on a k8 ABS and promptly took it off after discovering that the rear shovel is different than 04-06. I re-installed it on my k6 650s, install was a breeze and everything fits perfectly.

Long term solution is to install k6 shovel onto k8 ABS and hope it fits.

 

got my bike running again. she blew a main 30 amp fuse. thankfully it was something simple.

 

Nothing, more rain in my neighborhood.

 

Ordered my FE and seat cowl and looking forward to doing the installs. Rode to Quaker Steak and Lube for Bike Night with Hubby and Told him for the millionth time how much I love my SV.

 

nothing yet *insert evil laugh*

 

Picked it up out of the dirt and took inventory of the schitte I have to replace.

 

chain lube, that is it

 

Been riding for a little over a month. Let the dog out this morning, SNOW!

Not the nice kind, that melts when it hits the road either. Drove the cage to work, yuck!

 

Rode it work for the first time with the new Sargent seat. Initial impressions are:

1. WOW! It is slick - as in my ass almost slid off the thing when I went to put a foot on a peg.

2. I doesn't have the hard edges of the stocker, so should be easier on the bum for longer rides.

3. No issues with scooting up close to the tank, or sliding backwards under acceleration.

4. The coarse "weave" of the cover will be problematic when it gets rained on. It will be impossible to get the water off it with a swipe of the hand, and will result in a wet bottom.

Executive Summary: :thumbsup:

Also, traffic sucked today, and I ended up lanesplitting almost the entire way from home to work. Why is this not legal in every state?

I did not know it was legal in this state?!

 

Got a ticket on it. I just found out the 4 lanes that leads to my hood is a 50kph, not a 60. Sigh. Dude knocked it down to no points, but still a conviction.

Lets hope my insurance company is sleeping next year.

Just brought home front (120/60) and rear (170/60) dual compound dunlop tires and I am thinking of a secluded place to go to make smoke signals with the existing rear before the new ones are mounted!!! All I need is a camera!

 

Did an Oil and Filter change, and installed some snazzy new grips...

Also went for a 350 mile ride last Sunday through the canyons of Central and Eastern Oregon. It was my first real ride and it was amazing. Here are our beasts, with mine in the way back.

The older guys on the Duc and the Triumph were extremely fast, the Vstrom and I could barely keep up.

 

Took bike out from garage and put on rear stand. Put my boots on and sat on bike.

Modified my knee / shin guards so I can still have knee protection with my new boots.



Broke the shears handle when cutting the guard, had to use a saw.



Success! ;D

Returned the gloves that didn't fit and mailed my A* boots to A* so they can figure out why the shifter wore through it, not sure if A* will repair or replace them, have to wait and see.

There is a Triumph demo day at OTD in Santa Ana tomorrow, I will go - that's where I bought my SV. I will still go to the demo day in Brea as well, will take pictures.

 

Add broke scissors trying to cut the armor off

 

I bought it! First ride home was a rush. I haven't ridden in two years and boy am I rusty.

Time to send that odometer number a little higher.
