I aminlove with thisbuell. wish it had the hp of the 1125 or rc but the sound is amazing?

The nightster is GTG

The ultra
-make a new exhaust bracket for the cross over pipe
-finish installing the rest of the exhaust & heat shields
- pull fairing and wire up heated grips
- re-install the fairing with the new windshield

I also need to put the garage into summer mode and kick the wife's car out.

Rode the KLR in the AM and the CBR in the PM.

KLR feels different with new tires, tires that are not flat in the center. The bike now feels tippy and a little easier to throw into corners.

The CBR needs a new battery? Again? Damnit. I put one in last year. I rode it maybe a dozen times this winter, went through 3 tanks of gas, but the voltmeter was showing 11.9v this afternoon. It stays on the charger when not in use so I'm a little pissed. This is the 4th year I've had the bike, and the 3rd battery I have put in it in the spring. Hmmmm.....

Problems with the voltage regulator?

Stop being Jewish and buy a decent battery

No i dpointy think so, I started it and let it run for 20 mins in the garage last month and didn't actually use the bike, i think that killed the battery

Jumper mod, what is that?

For me th ebuell needs an oil change and gotta bleed the front brake and is good to go.

Triumph is up and going, I need an adapter so I can wire up the gps.
