Replaced rear shocks with 12.6" Progressive 412's and removed forks for an oil change to 10wt. Currently hanging upside down to drain overnight. Hope that will compliment the Progressive coils.

Reconditioned another $50 hub.

I didn't get a before pic but it was typical. Heavy black deposits covering powdery white corrosion with a few bright bits showing thru at the high points.



Wish me luck. Getting ready to cut the center out of this little aluminum trim piece. I'm trying to simulate the look of a stock caliper on a Wilwood GP310.

Last week I installed my gauntlet fairing (for long distance rides) and mustang wide tripper solo seat and took it for a test ride. Then today I assembled and used my J&S jack for the first time.... was scared s***less but once she was in the air she was solid! Hopefully it will turn out to be a great investment.

Damn. Broke my last Dremel disc about 1/4 way thru the task. Figures.

The finished trim piece is only a ring .100" wide X .062 thick, so it's pretty fragile.

I got mine up for the first time on the new J&S. I am going to love this lift!

I'm interested in how they turn out.

Got my riser 2" extensions installed. Under $50, 20 minute installation and should do the trick for my shoulders.

I can see that I'm not the only one who received a J&S jack today...

Didn't really want to ruin the lines of my bobber so Installed my radio inside of a tool bag. Now just to get Mom to make me a little leather flap to cover the controls when I'm not using it and I think it'll be done. I knew if I save those little brass grommets eventually one day I'd find a use for them.....haha. Pretty happy with the way it turned out.

Doing a mental checklist of how I put the front end back together. I'll do a real check list later. I'm waiting for an adapter so I can torque some things. I'll probably triple check the torque on some things. Charge the battery. Put air and Ride On in the tires and it is ready to ride. should be anyway. Gotta check over everything!


Took a picture of it:
