Hurl The DR still has some dirt on it.  Too cold to wash it off.

Got some various bits from Bike Bandit.  Replaced some fasteners and brackets.

Began the teardown on the Bandit.  New fork oil, new rear bearings, new tires, Busa shock, valve check, and she'll be good for another 40K.  She looks so sad on the table with no wheel draining fork oil...

Thanks for the comments.

It sounds much nicer than stock, that's for sure.  I'll leave the baffles in, it's too loud for touring with them out.  The nice thing is the new cans shaved nearly 15 pounds off the bike!

Last night I ordered a new face shield for my helmet to replace the one that took a hard shot on the concrete garage floor and got scratched to hell!  I went  Crazy as I was clicking the payment, $45 for a face shield!  I am a cheap bastard!

Next up, new chain and sprocket, I think I'll end up crying as I place that order.

 Lol  I'm surprised we went this long before someone said something about this.  

My wife travels a lot with her show dogs.  She, like me, doesn't like sticks or magnets on our cars.  But, when it's a dog show weekend, those magnets are taken off the air compressor and placed on the back of her SUV (by her, not me).

Put a MPPct 2 on the front and some grip puppies, then pushed it back in the shed, waiting for the rain to quit.
