Wishing I was doing this:

That's alright though as I'm thinking about putting a Baker Attitude Adjuster chain tensioner in the primary while I'm in there. Anybody using them and/or have an opinion on them?

They are worth the money as I keep seeing over tight primary chains on later bikes and that puts a lot of strain on the output bearing in the tranny and it can eat them in no time...like 30K miles.

I run the baker compensator with the armored attitude adjuster, se vpc, and the Andrews 30 tooth power pulley. I love the hole set-up! 2012 wg

Tried my hands at learning to paint with some i custom mixed. 3 coats of paint and 3 of clear. Waiting to dry for wet sanding. Eager to see this thing in sunlight it has a lot of small metallic in the paint.

Just a spare chopped fender I had laying around.

I took a nice ride along Lake Michigan on Sunday afternoon and snapped this photo just south of Algoma, WI.

Got the crossover o-ring for my rear today so I assembled it and bled the brakes, front and rear.

My bike is supposed to have DOT5 in the brakes so I flushed them with a quart of denatured alcohol before bleeding with DOT4.

Rears are hard as a rock with very little free play...unlike stock...should be a nice improvement.

Fronts are from a Fat Bob and seem kinda spongy. The master creaks a little, too. I may tear it down and look at it...
