Well, my bike's finally repaired after the crash of 13 Oct 2021! Cost? About $9K! It's being delivered back home next Thursday...pics posted shortly thereafter. Added more custom STUFF during the repair! (of course)

LOL! Good idea. All I hafta do is WATCH THE ROAD instead of staring down at the tach! In order to accomplish this difficult (for me) task I swapped speedos for the KOSO HD-05 multimeter with oversize tachometer shown here:

I looked at this on their website and the video shows a pretty easy, straightforward replacement. Hmmmmmmm, maybe a good February mod to do. I'm going to look into it again.

Getting the beauty cover off to access the slave cylinder is the biggest PITA! You have to loosen the header pipe, muffler, and brackets to have clearance.
