What did you do to your bagger today?
No photos, but I installed the heavy duty cable to the battery for my new Noco Boost X GBX45 jump starter in the new (to me) 2017 Road King. With an adapter, this is also supports the Noco Genius 10 battery tender/charger. :-) Works great!

It's a nice unit, and not crazy expensive. I'm running an AGM battery in mine currently. When I installed the cable, it was nice that the previous owner wrote the install date on top of the battery! It is just over two years old! He took really good care of the old girl...
Installed a DIY external breather kit, did a fluid drain and fill on all 3 holes, lubed the clutch cable, adjusted the clutch, cleaned and waxed the bike.

Hbd68 I’m looking on getting this noco GBC007 so I can put the clamps on this and be able to plug this in the X connector that’s hard wired to battery and if I ever need a jump lol they can hook to the clamps .
I think this kit has a male / female adapter coupling that will work I can’t get a 100% video on explaining if if can be done.

Finished the 400 grit wet sand on my second fork… finally! That’s the hard part out of the way. Now I’m going to do 1000 grit and then 2000. Then polish. Then fork rebuild and Pro-Action kit install.
If I left the rough cast areas alone it would have taken maybe 4 hours total to complete the entire polish process. I think I have 4 hours into each fork, just to complete the 400 grit. Learning what to do with the rough cast areas took some time and patience.
Between holiday travel, a car wreck, work, and a never ending honey-do list, this project has taken way too long.

Buttoned up a few straggling projects today.
Improved the front camera mount by using a 3/4” AN hose clamp as a bracket.
The new configuration offers significantly more adjustment in all directions and is all metal.
Reinstalled the backlit tank bezel after wrapping it to match the seat.
Lowered my camera remote w/ a new bracket.
Little **** that helps finish the project.

I routed the tubing up above the throttle body and under the tank and back to the area behind the right side cover where I use a filter that sits in as small rubber made bowl. I checked it this week and cleaned it. I may go to a catch can but this seems to be working well so far.
