Hopped a couple curbs, dodged several stinky hippies on skateboards, slalomed some pedi-cabs, parked on the sidewalk, almost got hit by a stupid Duck Truck. Standard day commuting in downtown Seattle.

Washed it. Had to use polishing compound and a buffer to remove some of the bug guts on the fairing.

Just one thump. Then it spun off my ankle and did a backspin into the ditch.

Rode it then washed it. Yes that's right, I washed it for the second time this year. I even squirted some oily stuff on the chain before I left.

Noticed the chain on the KLR was getting a bit dry, So I kicked it on it's side and lubed her up.
OK so I had to "lay her down" softly on the driveway and sprayed oil on her.
