I was sick and tired of broken turn signals (horrible design, Triumph), so today I installed an integrated taillight and undertail. Later tonight I'll be installing the flushmount front turn signals. Also threw on the Ram mount while I was out there. If the USB socket shows up today I'll be throwing that on as well. Ready for the next trip. Where are we heading @cmh_sprint? ?

Installed fuzeblock with new wiring to Garmin Zumo and heated gear port. Took off my bags and put on my lowered seat.

I am planning on taking it for a test ride.  This will be the first time that I have ridden it since ACL surgery 2 months ago.

Road to work on a beautiful 36 degree morning. Need to find some cool weather gear. Now sitting at work debating on which fender eliminator I want to put on this winter. Thinking about the new rage one but not sure how I feel about taking the rear fender off completely.

The Graves fender eliminator doesn't look bad IMO.

Yeah I was looking at that one too. Then just need to get some better looking turn signals for the front and back. I don't mind the taillight as much as some people do.

Quality led marker and signal easy install. Nice and bright just tuck under or over bottom clamp on forks.

Cool, I'll check them out. I saw your post on 83. I grew up in Cambridge my whole life until joining the service. I miss the roads down there. Roads up here are so different, straight and flat.

Put on a new chain and sprockets. First time I did a rivet style master link. Went pretty well. I flared it to DID specs so I'm hoping I have no issues. I also flushed the front brake fluid. They felt spongey. I hope the flush cures it. Hopefully I can at least get out for a short ride tomorrow to test everything out.

Front and rear brake pads, and new Dunlop RoadSmarts on the '02. Checked and topped off fluids, etc. Rode it 950 miles to Florida. That's its new home. New Michelin Pilot Road 4 on the '07, and riding it down this week.

Cleaned the bike up a bit this morning,checked fluids and pressure. After just shy of 300miles of twisty asphalt today to be sure the tire pressure was to my liking I then needed to cinch up my chain. Running hard and especially engine brake really seem to stretch that joker.
