Yeah...that is a nice looking rack.
Just changed the oil and cleaned the air filter on the Feej after work. She is one dirty bitch. I may have to clean her.

Pulled the Ohlins shock to try to compress the spring so I could back out some of the fixed preload on the hydraulic collar. My $30 spring compressor is not up to the task tho, so off to the shop tomorrow to have it done properly.

I'm not the mechanical type, but I reconnected the stock horn that was disconnected by the previous owner before I acquired my bike one year ago. I ignored it for a year because I thought the lose connection was somewhere underneath the tank. It was by the actual horn down by the radiator.
My bike is now horny.
Now, I just need to figure out how to turn my SV650 into a VFR800.
