Completed the re-assembly of the rear of the bike. Tomorrow we pull the forks and install the new fork springs and reset the oil level in the forks with the recommended fork oil (Maxima Racing Fork Oil 5W).

 
Rode to work, then got board & went for another ride for a hour or so, then back to my shop & thought Nah it's to good a day to work lets go for another ride,

well it;s not every day i get out for a ride so why not. The weather was 34 & clear blue sky.

 
Got the bits back from the paint shop. Now to get them fitted.[img=[URL="https://i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s522/hopetoun/null_zps7c1fddf8.jpg%5D"]https://i1304.photobucket.com/albums/s522/hopetoun/null_zps7c1fddf8.jpg][/URL]
What was the cost to get this painted if you do not mind me asking looks nice & clean
Brill job. Cost £120. Done by a firm that do professional racing bikes over here. Cheaper than some competitors too. Got the hand guards fitted this morning. Foot shields will take me a bit longer.

 
"It's the little things..."
The former Miss Lucy Liu had an exciting and well-traveled life in her first ten years. Now that she's entered the Witness Protection Program and relocated from the desert to the coast, she's beginning a new life. Her WitSec handlers get a bit nervous when folks look at her 'face' and recognize her!

All those stickers - memories of some of her previous exploits - belong in an album (or a drawer) at Don's. So after the little breakfast ride on Saturday I went down in the garage with a hairdryer and did a little "cosmetic" surgery on Lucille's face.

After heating and peeling, then it was a careful scrub with Goo Gone, a rinse with Windex and a polish with Lemon Pledge.

For a gal with her... experience, she looks pretty darn good!

Yeah, good job there. You'd have to be a bit of a poofter to ride around with someone else's stickers on your bike.

Tony,
Is that the "short bus" version FJR?

(The aspect ratio of your picture is wrong)

This would be the 2up version FJR.. . least until the wife learns how to pack

I was making fun of the picture, Tony, not your bike. It isn't displaying right for some reason. THe aspect ratio isn't fixed so depending on the window size it looks horizontally squashed down

She may not know it right now but I think you just made her list, rh.

Unpacked my new to me Rifle screen with angulator thingy. That makes 4 screens I have for this bike. Designing a rack so I can carry them all with me in case a change is warranted due to different conditions. Is there a 12 step program for this?
