Love this time of year as the weather is finally getting warm enough to ride often, but I forget all the expenses that come along with it, I should really start doing stuff over the winter lol. Yesterday I picked up new battery, all the stuff for a full service, about to order a new tire, then get it inspected and pay the taxes to renew the tag. So there goes $500 bucks on top of the money I'm putting back for bike week in less than 2 months!
Now that Spring has sprung, my garage door is busted and I won't be riding either bike for about 3 weeks, or until the door comes in and is installed....

If it ain't one thing it is another. You are sidelined by a door and I am sidelined by surgery. Another 3 weeks before I can ride.
First proper ride of the year yesterday - to Wales and back: just over 230 miles; just over six and a half hours in the saddle. Everything from fast highways to single track mountain roads. Brilliant fun.

Everyone is offering rebates on motorcycle tires right now. They do this every year at this time. Pick up 2. (I usually pick up 5 as I get an add'l 15% off by doing so.)
Battery? www.batterymart.com
Oils/filters? eBay is your friend
Inspected? I'd leave any State that pulled that crap.
New tag? Everyone pays this one, no matter where you are.
Bike Week? No thanks, I'd rather have a paper cut on my eye ball. That's just a cash grab by a greedy promoter.
Did get the shocks on tonight. Hope Sunday weather permitting will be able to put some miles on them.
Looks good. I have always debated upgrading my stock shocks, which seem to me to be fine. I weigh 180 and never ride two up. Lets us know how big an improvement in ride quality the new shocks are.

Crazy Bunderbike Build Looks Amazing, But Is It Impossible to Ride?
