Um.... why? Why would you want your phone to be visible to you while you are riding?

Michael

i wanted to see who will be calling me especially when its a long ride, especially if its emergency.
then i'll stop over to talk on the phone

easier also when you are using GPS

but i didn't put it there so i could talk on the phone. NO NO NO 

but once i get my Interphone, then that's going to be a totally different story 

Put on a new gauge cover to replace my cracked one, cleaned up a bunch of wiring while I was in the area.

Installed a Gxsr 750 front fender
Swapped out the stock brake and clutch lever
picked out my exhaust
and decided on a Koso RX1N Speedo

Gave the bike a service, then went for a cruise and spent allot of time push starting a GSX400.

At least it wasn't Ducatis 

It's been 2500k since I got her so I changed the oil/filter, cleaned and lubes the chain and the front brake lever since it was sticking. Well now I know it was sticking move cuz it was bent and that oil changes do actually make a difference. When she was leaking oil out the sidecover I topped her off with conventional car motor oil. I got a deal from the Suzuki dealer on their synth oil and she shifts much smoother. Plus surprisingly on the way to the dealer to pick up the oil and filter she kicked out of gear twice on the freeway when I accelerated. She's never done that before and she didn't do it again on the way back home. I'm thinking she was feelin under the weather since we got rearended on the onramp for the 110 fwy in highland park los Angeles. No damage just a bump but still scared the shaZam! outta me. But she feels much better now.

Just swapped out the front brake fluid myself.
Although it really didnt seem neccessary. it wasnt black or anything.. it just LOOKED black through the stupid reservoir window.

Good job anyway 

cleaned the cob webs off my bike....

its been 3 weeks since ive taken it for a ride. ive torn the rib cartilage on my second rib right hand side.

Yes well... When someone tells you they charged the "NEW" battery in bike ask for how long. If they say less the 4 hours don't let them ride.

I just got back from retrieving my bike from when I crashed...1600kms round trip... ...now I get to start cleaning and digging in to see what I broke... 

Later.

Replaced heel guards and foot levers & bolts with black. Took warning sticker off of swing arm. Will re-paint another set with better prepping. The chrome coatings on those parts are hard to get paint to stick to.

Painted and mounted a National Cycle Flyscreen to my '91.

Installed aftermarket grips and reinstalled my rear tire (just replaced the stock rear tire)

Washed it a few days ago. Boy I love this bike even though it's my first bike and I've only ridden it for a total of maybe five minutes

Now I need to replace the fork seals and replace the front tire (I have the new one, just need to get it mounted at the Suzuki dealer)

Also, time to check the oil... The PO had the fuel petcock in the PRI position while he owned it... Good thing he only put a few hundred miles on it and changed the oil shortly before selling it to me.

I'm awaiting an order of red LEDs for the speedo and tach, and a bike cover

Changed out my rear wheel bearings before arvo shift, I only replaced them a few months back, but the last few days the bike didn't wanna turn in and when it did it would nearly fall from under me. My Haynes pointed to worn bearings. Glad I did the 'old' ones were stiff to turn. Needless to say bike feels much more stable while cornering now.

I washed and detailed my GS, a much needed project! Also removed stock headlight and in the process of mounting a stock headlight and flashers from a DRZ SM. <pix when complete>

Since I had put in a European headlight into Trey, he had a running light in it. So I changed the bulb to a T-10 LED running light, just to keep myself busy.
Also installed a relay to cut the headlight when starter button pressed. Not that Trey needed it (with the LiFe Shorai battery) I took all of a minute to do it, just to see how to do it. I've heard some people wonder about it so I was bored and did it. In reality, it took longer to stuff all the crap back into the headlight bucket (like stuffing a 300 pound woman into a size 6 shoe, as Al Bundy would say) than it did to install a relay to cut the headlight.
FYI: the "F" models cut the headlight automatically. You only need this with older models.

Sand the chrome off. Otherwise it will just flake off later.

Dusted it off.  Yesterday I ran out of gas, had valve set to RES ! got to gas station on PRIME !! Oops..
