Today was pre-trip inspection we ride Thanksgiving Day and hope Friday not real far but still out about. Plan on riding until salt (liquid) is sprayed on roads. Can't wait it has bee a while. ride safely fearless

 

Yep, winter can get.... tedious.

Rocker Lockers will get rid of the top end ticking that comes from the rocker shafts banging into the rocker plate bolts.

Check out this vid to see how they work-

 

Had some light pinstriping done to the front fairing, fender and trunk door. When I bought my 2013 used, it had a large deep scratch on the fairing. I was able to get a local pinstriper to fill the scratch and cover it with stripes. Much cheaper than having the fairing painted. FYI the scratch is under the left point of the striping

 

Not much into the skull part, but really like the pin striping itself. Can you post a pic of the truck door also? Good job.

 

Took advantage of Black Friday deals at my local dealership. Believe it or not, it was the wife's idea for the fairing and who am I to disagree.

That looks nice, been thinking about the chrome dash trim myself. One question though, have you noticed any sunlight glare back in your eyes?

 

I've heard of that happening but it was so cloudy on the ride yesterday that I wasn't able to see any glare.

 

Looks good. When I had the chrome on the gauges I didn't have any problem with glare.

 

I use to feel the same way about salt. Then I was told about S100 Corrosion Protectant. I've been using it for about 10 years now - works like a miracle. Spray it on all metal parts (except rotors) and fittings etc. Then wash it off in April = nice shiny bike with no rust or corrosion. I don't even buff it out, just leave it raw - who cares what it looks like in the winter.
Go to the dealer and get a couple cans and give it a try - IF - you still WANT to ride over the winter.

I figure I'm not spending over $32K on a bike and then store it in a garage for 6 months. S100 and heated gear and I'm good to go all winter.
I put on Sunday brunch rides every week - if the roads are dry. If they are wet we don't ride(safety reasons).

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to all you PC'ers

 

Everyone noticed the chrome but I see the Chrome and a painted inner fairing , looks awesome Shrubbs ! Ebert
