A tiny drop of oil on the core before installation really helps prevent leaking. We used to install and leak check literally millions of them at work. The seal ring on the outside of the core body can sometime wrinkle when you torque them. Always use a good cap to keep junk out of there, too.

 

Well after a year of putting off replacing the battery I final had to. Bike is always on a tender but was done. Road to work and parking in the parking garage. Mind you it is 30 deg out. Bike started great etc. But when it was time to leave. Well I though i was going to need a jump. after riding for a while it was back to normal would start up but just didn't want to push it. Bought a HD battery since I want to ride some more this week before the Rain, and Snow come.

 

Received an interesting purchase offer on the bike today; pondering it...

 

Hmmm, do I want to go out to the shop tonight to work on the Dyna or go over to my mothers house for homemade dinner...I was invited...

...I think I'll ride over to moms!

 

I think you made the right choice.

 

Yup. It's all too easy to let life get in the way of family...amd when they're gone you (I) regret some of those selfish choices.

 

You seemed to enjoy building it, so you can sell it, and do it all over again. Won't be as big of a surprise as the last build was for us though. Perhaps a sidehack build this time... dd50 tp

 

Can't think of anything more to do to it so considering selling? I look forward to seeing what you do with the next monster if you do.

 

Well picked up wheels from powder and got new pirelli night dragons put on. Never tried the tires but they get good enough reviews and gotta be better than the stock Michelin they are replacing performance wise. Forgot to pick up new pulley and rotor bolts so off to the dealer in the morning. All in all pleased with the color it's different from typical black most do.

 

That's super sharp. Good choice. Metallic?
