Just rolled over to 20k yesterday.
If history repeats itself the 250 will get run over and totaled within the next several months. The other one was killed not long after it made it to 20k. The salvage bike I bought had 32k on it, so maybe I have a little while longer.
Just make sure you are not on it when the steam roller comes by

Mounted a new Angel ST on the front, changed oil, synced the throttle bodies, washed and waxed.
Loaded up the panniers, strapped on my camping gear, leaving for Indy in about 30 hrs.

That's the messed up thing. My bike has been hit twice while parked. The boy's car has been hit 3 times. All in different locations. Only once was when the car was parked on the street, the rest have been when the vehicle was in it's own parking spot. I just can't win.

Easy solution= park in someone else's spot and you will only have a one in three chance of being flattened

Seized a bearing race in a swingarm that I thought was clean of powder coat.
Now the race has been cut out, the powder coat has been stripped and new bearing are on their way: another one of life's little character building experiences.

Didn't do anything with the bike this past weekend (just rode it) because I was busy doing this to the STi.

Installed the bi xenons from kryptonbulbs.com.
Low Beams
Before on left, After on right:
No before and after on the high beams because I didn't have a before pic (without the aux lights).
Too tired to wire the aux lights today, hopefully tomorrow or Friday.

Washed off all the splattered bugs from last weekend's trip. Tomarrow I'll go out and reapply some new bugs.

Very little - have been gone on the road for business for the last two weeks.
But got in town Friday and my wife and I spent a relaxing weekend at the Beachhouse in Ensenada.
So, getting home to CA today, I went out and checked out my Commut-a-Saurus and made sure it'll be ready for tomorrow morning.
