Did a few more steps of my early 5k miles service. Inspected spokes, A/C filter, electricals, fuel lines and battery. Fixed issue with throttle response which required removal of the tank. Not difficult but I was doing it for the first time so learned something new that you only get a few drops of oil spill even if the fuel tank is full.

Also tucked the front brake line and throttle and idle cables for a cleaner look.

In progress ....


all cleaned up


Next steps:
- Complete remaining steps of 5k service
- install the Nation Cycle aux lights bar (this one is overdue)

 

Replaced my Short Shots and Fuel Pak with the V&H Competition Series 2 into 1 exhaust and a Power Commander V. It's just as loud as the short shots, but has a deeper and meaner tone. My butt dyno says that it added a few more ponies and a whole lot more torque as well.

 

Your bike is rad man! Really nice exhaust.

 

Thanks TF9030!

 

Changed out the spark plugs. Pre- gap'd my a**

 

Installed the Swingarm bag and cleaned up the bike from this past week's riding.

 

Added extra MSR fuel canisters & Agri containers to the QD HD aero rack.

 

Finally got around to doing the ignition and coil relocation. I didn't relocate my cowbell. I didn't like the options I had so I just tucked the wire if I decide to replace the horn later. For now I'll run without it. I bought a 7" bucket, lamp, and bulb off of eBay but I'll need to make some modifications to the mounting block so I decided to save it for another day. Glad I finally got it all cleaned up.

 

Got a new Mikuni carb installed and tuned.

 

I have that same sissy bar but didn't realize I could add a rack to the back of it. Which one did you use and how does it attach?

I have the standard HD quick connect detachable luggage rack but of course can't use it and the sissy bar at the same time.
Thanks.
