Default Oh YA.............

Its like 60 here ... I took all morning and finished my painted inner fairing install then i went for a shake down ride... I shoulda kept going but its so damn nice im cleaning the garage.... Inner fairing looks good although it doesnt quite match but its gonna stay .. Im taking pics but im taking a break for a cocktail right now .... Ill post pics soon on the dash thread.... Bike runs good and no problems with the chrome 9 spokes i got on the bay and installed... took my hands off the bars and everything was fine... too bad its only march..

Posted em on the dashboard thread... Its not a bad job but very time consuming... The fact that I painted mine myself added 3 days to the equation but if you were going to just buy the inner and switch cap and change them out you could do it in a day. I think it would take that long just being careful not to loose any of the small pieces or mess anything up... Im sure thats longer than needed but its gonna take what it takes depending on your mechanical abilities . It definitely can be done in a day though. Oh ya it got up t0 65 yesterday so i had to go for another ride for about an hour...
