There's a local dude named Roberto who does fantastic work. My buddy's got some sort of deal with him, so he grabs all our suits at track days and takes them to Roberto, then brings them all to the next track days all done.

If you need some repairs you could do the shipping thing though, I'd have to hook you up with his contact info.

Me either... I've got it all done pretty much... just waiting on the painter.

It's a big worm-drive hose clamp, you just tighten the shit out of it. It shouldn't slide off.

Rather, the slider itself IS a hose clamp, sortof.










A couple little updates.

Received and installed the woodcraft 3 piece brake lever that was backordered



Threw a Puig black double bubble windscreen on the stock front cowling. Have a clear oem for the race plastics. No switching necessary now.



Threw on the new pazzo clutch lever, will keep the rashed one as a spare



Threw on a fresh set of stompgrips



Put most of the stock fairings and lights back on... now I'm just waiting for some things to come back from paint and I'm good to go. The painter has been really busy...




He has both my fenders... would anyone ride without one? I am thinking sand/rocks/debris would put lots of little nicks in the fork tubes which would then degrade and eventually ruin the fork seals. Thoughts? It seems like a silly thing to keep me from riding, but I'm not in a terrible rush and don't want to fuck up my forks...

One thing's for sure... for the next set of trackdays... she's gonna be looking sick
