I noticed we didn't have one of these, and figured I'd make one. I mod on some car forums, and they are usually pretty interesting topics.

So did you mod, maintain, fix something?

Today
- I changed and bled the rear brakes (now its very very stiff hmmm)
- Relocated the rear signal to the shock mounts using a kit (required pulling the shock tops, rear fender, under-fender, cutting the under fender, and extending the wires)
- Installed the side-mount from Killervrod.... had to cut my plate smaller, but looks good. I didn't install the LED yet.
- Removed the Screaming Chicken exhaust and packed them up, getting TAB's this week

Got my sundowner in the mail today, so I threw it on tonight :)
Hoooooly crap was I missing out, its like a cradle for your ass. I got it to try and make the old lady more cozy but I love this thing, she on the other hand is not impressed with her seating area :( she doesn't like how it curves up. ugh guess I gotta go custom. But we never took it out yet (20* temps is a bit too much for me). I don't know why people think it looks too big, I think it looks perfect. But I do have a bit of a bagger style going so that's probably why it works well on mine.

Finished replacing the left side radiator hose assembly and went for a 35 mile test ride. I wasn't feeling very confident about that shrink clamp business, but no leaks so far...
If you haven't tossed your "p-clamp" yet, I recommend checking it and/or chucking it asap! It can create an unnecessary and expensive repair.

Very nice. Too bad your picture is surrounded by all of that ugly white stuff.

Yea. I rode today and didn't even need a face mask. Tragically, we are forecasted for snow on thursday.
