Farkle-fest?

So...
I've ordered/received the new Riser Plate (thanks, MCL!) for the ST...
I've got some generic "driving lamps" to add to the front forks, just to make myself stand out more from all the cagers who can't seem to "see" us...
I'd like to upgrade to a Stebel horn or some other option to make myself heard, for those times when the driving lights and day-glo yellow reflective vest are not sufficient...
I'd also like to remove the (dealer option) HONDA AM/FM radio that is mounted to the bars, and perhaps add heated grips and a throttle lock.
But I'm not a patient person..and get frustrated when things don't go well....and hate the idea of taking the cycle apart and not being able to put it back together, thus losing precious riding time.
We need another "Farkle-fest"!
Well, maybe, "I" need another one, to start/finish some of these things I've been considering.

Might have to...thought I'd throw out the idea and see what interest it generates.
I have all the basic tools...metric/english wrenches, air compressor, etc....and a driveway big enough to work on...and patio furniture to contemplate the next steps from...and a 'fridge for beverages...and a grille for brats and burgers....and...and...and....
Any interest?
Or we could just ride..that works, too!

I hear Denny is having a Farkle Mania open house sometime in June with food and free tire change...just have to get on the list and there's probably a food donation in there somewhere.
I'm changing my VFR tires after scrubbing them off at TWiSTAR.
Just an idea if you can wait.

But it would be great to have two of them...I've got plenty of projects which are unfinished.
I think you are in Wisconsin somewhere??? Denny is in Zion.

T'would be hard to have a handle like "Cheddarhead" if I were not in America's Dairyland...
I'm in Pewaukee...about 20 miles west of Milwaukee...just off I-94.
If I don't "farkle" locally, Denny will probably get the ST for a week or so while I'm tour with the Drum Corps later in July. I could then do both a Spenser update on the seat and the other stuff at the same time...
Too many options!

When in doubt, throw a party. Even if nobody shows up, you'll have a fridge full of beer and your house has never been cleaner.

Hi Guys n Gals
Since Chuck kind of let the cat outa the bag, I might as well clue you in. June 14, Tech Day, my shop. Broad strokes is cough up a few bucks for burgers n pop n shop supplies n stuff. More on that later, once we know how many are coming.
Shop time, Bring your wheels down for tire changes or we can pull them here. I have one rack, so let me know what you have in mind and we can set things up.
Thanks,
Denny

Denny, thanks for changing my tires today on the VFR. The shock adjustment is perfect.
I think for Farkle-Fest I'll change the rear tire on the Valk.
See you then!
