Replaced the rear brake pad.... What fun, seized caliper pins.... lots of PB Blaster, heat and thumping...
Sore and tired, but done :)
Also replaced my broken mirror with a set of cheapies and replaced the bar ends( rubbers were toast)
Mirrors vibrate a bit more than I'd like... may look around for a stock one yet.,....
 
Cleaned, lubed, and adjusted the chain after getting home form work.
 
Installed new exhaust springs.
Did you use progressive or constant-rate springs?

I think my exhaust springs are too soft for my weight.
 
Washed and waxed the bike, then watched mail lady deliver my motoslider frame sliders. Promptly installed them and re waxed the bike lol!

Single rate. Progressive is dangerous for wheelies but I hear it helps for bunny hops.

Today I washed my car and SV. I haven't driven the car in a few years. There was a dead/partially decomped bird under it. I'm sure that's a sign of good luck.
