My sporty is locked up!!
Hey guys,
Today was a sad day.......I have just finished with all my winter mods, I got a little anxious and started them early. Sad news is that with exams coming up and then a cruise in early december I won't have any time to ride so I bit the bullet and put the sporty into hibernation.
The first picture is the before, then second one is after all the mods, and the sad looking one is it in its resting spot for the next 2-3 months.
I put in stabil, put a damprid package under it and covered it with a vented cover...... By the way its in the back of a 40' cargo container....
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving

You really didn't need to go through this hassle. You could've sent her over here to California and I would've kept her warm for you, free of charge.
BTW..........good work on the bike. Looks good. I was toying around with the idea of putting Nightster tins on my Custom, including the fenders.

Thanks for the kind words guys,
The weather isn't that bad but Im in the last leg of graduate school and I have exams coming up for the next 2 weeks or so and I don't want to be tempted with the bike! I am also going on a cruise for 7 days right after I get finished with exams so I won't have time to ride until early January so I decided to go ahead and put her up.
As far as putting it in the back of the storage container nothing else is going in it so I don't have to worry about getting it out when I need it. I also turned it sideways so I could put the jack under it and take the load off of the tires (the jack and handle wouldn't fit the otherway) I just took the picture before that
