Worth it! I really don't mind the payment, it's a drop in the bucket in the long run. Would it be nice to not have one? Sure, but then I'd still be riding my old basket case...

 

yeah no doubt. Although I got a few miles in the other day before it started raining again.

 

I think I have finally narrowed down by camera mounting plan. Use a harness with shoulder mounts. You cannot mount an action cam on your bike as the vibration will cause blurry video. Decided against using any kind of suction cup or adhesive mount to the helmet--not too keen on the possibility of a $400 camera blowing off.

 

New shocks on. Progressive 970's. My first set of decent shocks and holy crap what a difference...

 

Nice job. It does not get any better than the 970s.

 

How are they different?

 

About .5" taller, sprung more for my weight than the stock shocks, adjustability, just overall better. Bike feels so much more smooth and responsive IMO...need to take it thru the twisties this weekend to really feel the difference though...

 

Man the more you do to your bike Dynakid the better it looks. You are improving on a already good looking bike.

 

Thanks man. Trying to mostly only make modifications that look tasteful and improve some aspect of the bike - performance, safety, comfort, etc. If i'm honest though, making it look cool is half the reason we do anything...lol

 

Wheres that ohlins hook up. What alley do i meet him in?
