Default Picked my bike up...
Well, I made it to U.S. soil yesterday and picked my bike up on the way home from the airport.

Man, what a ride. I had a few more little things done to her, nothing major, but sometimes just the small details make a huge difference.

Thanks guys. Most here know that I'm a non-military contractor working overseas. I don't want to take credit from the soldiers.

bosoken, I just did some small stuff...most of the big stuff has already been done. I had them replace some bolts with chrome ones and had the fuel crossover changed to braided/stainless. I think if I do anything else at this point it's going to be some performance mods. We'll see....
