Default working on the bike some pics

Got the bike up on the lift and been pecking away at it before work, got the tank lift on cpl days ago and went ahead today and removed the tank so i can run my amp and speaker wiring under the tank and get the tank cleaned up really good. Tomorrow the front and back rims come off new tire in the back and new rotors and brakes front and back. While i have all that off going to get the bike washed down and cleaned up in all those places you cant get to like under the fenders and frame areas etc and the rockers etc. Ill keep pics coming and if anyone wants any pick of a certian area let me know here are the pics for the day. Oh and just a note for all the guys that have thought about a tank bra look close at my tank and you will see how much dirt and debris collects under a console and the leather that comes down from the console one reason i would never consider a tank bra.

Good luck with all that. With the tank lift, make sure you pull the tank as far back as possible so the forks don't hit it in full left/right lock.
