What did you do to your bagger today?

Let's see: Swapped the old tour-pak rack for the new Air Wing rack with LED light. Swapped the original tour-pak light for the LED one. Swapped the original turns for, yes, you guessed it, the LED ones. I already had the LED tail light. I can definitely been seen from behind. I had the front end done a while back.
I didn't like the Dyno tune when I had all the work done awhile back. 28MPG and lot's of soot. I have complained several times. Dealer agreed to retune it so they kept it for a couple of days and did the light work above and when I asked them about the Tune I got several different stories and no paperwork. They didn't change me for it and it was truly awful. It did pick the mileage up to 38mpg, but it literally stalled on occasion between 1,900 and 2,300. The 1st time I was at a stop and turned right and did a sharp 90 degree and while it was leaned over it just stopped pulling:-( It did it pretty consistently. Other than that it ran OK. I took it into an Indy today and it's running well again. A few more HP and Torq. and just runs smoother. It also runs much quieter? My wife didn't hear me come home:-) I only got 33mpg coming home, but it was into a 30 - 35+ headwind.
Mike, the guy that tuned it showed me a bunch of Dyno's that he'd save with the different cams etc. It's obvious that I bought the wrong cam. The T-Man 555 Torqster is a good cam, just not for the way I ride. 2 up touring. The power comes on at 3K and runs strong from there to 6.2k. I need something that comes on a little over 2K:-( An expensive mistake on my part.

today? mocked up the new bars on my RKC. figured why not...its not even close to ready-to-ride again just yet.
I screwed up though. grabbed new riser bushings...forgot that I cant replace those while the bike is strapped into the lift. oh well, it'll get finished up, and I'll swap the bushings once I get it back together enough to get it off the lift
bars are WildOnes 14" chubby apes

revisited inside the fairing to find the front ABS sensor connection that somehow came off when I reinstalled the fairing DOH and took her for a ride.
Ahhhhhhh! feel better now!
