Ask and you shall receive!

Side view, once the fender was cut, I drilled holes to fit my license plate on.


Normal


Left turn signal


And right turn signal


You all know how the brake light looks.
Does anyone know how to make the bulbs brighter?

Clocks For Bikes?

Is the left one a Temp?

It kinda looks like you have the clock with light. If so, how well does it light up when you push the button?

Right on. That's where to get 'em. Bight enough to read at night. I've been very happy with them.
My other bike has factory clip-ons, so I don't know where I'm going to put a clock. Yes - the other one is a thermometer. It looked too naked with just the clock.

You're right. I should put the clock on the stem for "Junior" that has the factory clip-ons. I didn't realize that was an option until you suggested it and I went back to their site to see the options. The thermometer isn't as important for Junior. "Suzi" looks better with both.

New bars/grips....I like them so far...... Superbike bars from MSS.

Adjusted preload on the shock......feels so much better.....thanks to whomever on the screwdriver trick.  Worked like a champ.  Pretty easy.

Adjusted the chain that had a surprising amount of slack in it.  I am assuming it was after shock change......May be common knowledge....but I didn't expect it.

Idle is still too low, but she runs like a dream.

I had also tried the Renntec luggage rack. Unfortunately, it totally blocks access to the tool kit so I bought the MoTech to see how it works. Doesn't look as cool as the Renntec but it does not block access to the tool kit. And we know the storage space under the seat is not very much.

Put on a Zero Gravity windscreen last week.
Saturday I put on the European clip-ons on my 2009 GS500F. Coooooooooolllllll! Turns a GS500F into a junior GSXR!

Fixed the float needle for the third time in the left bowl this time I took the thing all the way apart and did a little massaging with fine emery clothe and a buffer. The woes of a fixxer upper.
Common sense, So rare it's a **** super power.

My life is not a journey with the intent of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather I will skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out loudly proclaiming... WOW WHAT A RIDE!!!

Moved my 12V outlet from under the seat to up front near the fairing. Also extended my crank case breather and moved my play-doh catch can to the frame near the horn. Tired of oil all over the carbs and engine.

This was over the weekend but....

Exhaust Can-Check
Buddah Jet Kit-Check
Ditch the full lock right rev-Check

Low and Midrange power difference is unreal compared to before.  Haven't tested on highway but it will pull in 3rd or 4th from say 40 mph with no lug at All! 

Diggin it a LOT!
