Those are on the list of mods. I just want it to get warm enough to ride

Me too. Snow is never gonna end. A March ride might be out of the question at this point.

Yeah, I can't imagine what you guys go through up there. But I'm used to getting at least some riding in in Feb.

I'm reading stuff about a triple threat over the next two weeks. Talking about massive snow fall...and we picked up over 3' in 4 days last week.

Me either. I just wanna ride. Got the bike out on March 15th last year. Don't see that happening this year.

I'll be doing SS lines before spring - I'd definitely be curious what you think of the total swap though. It may be next on my list of things to do.

Worth every penny. Especially if you don't have the $$ for the full front end swap. I got about an hour in this past Saturday. No more needing the rear brake to assist in quick stops.
