You're rivalling adidas in dropping $$ on the bike ... he he ... not quite, but if parts from finland and switzerland start showing up @ your door then you know you're in the same league.

V&H exhaust ... hope you like taking it off sanding and painting that turkey ... every year. Those things rust like mad. On the bright side, it drops a few oz every year in weight.

Cool.

I actually proactively went ahead and put some extra layers of exhaust paint and some clear coat on it to delay the rusting.

Exhaust paint is cured by heat. Its better to paint it just before you put it on the bike.
And even their factory paint isn't fully cured. Expect it to smoke like hell.

Finished the forks. New seals, new dust seals, new seal retainer clips, .85kg/mm sonic springs with spacers cut flush, 20w fork oil set with the recommended air gap of 115mm, and a nice black paint job.

Well this is shitty, someone decided they needed the boxes I was painting my parts in so they dumped my parts onto the concrete ruining all my work and took the boxes... unfortunately the metal pegs for my frame sliders where still in the boxes when they took them. So now I have to repaint a shaZam! ton of parts and buy a whole new set of frame sliders. Is it wrong that I hate most of humanity?

What ... you live in some sort of shared box community ... didn't you keep these boxes in your house/office/garage "domain" ?

Cool.

I live in an apartment complex, we have a shared garage... but they were well within my allocated space.

People just don't use there heads sometimes good luck that sucks pretty bad I would take one thing that looks important away from everyone else's stuff there and see how they like it
