Well, the o ring in my clutch cable was leaking so I figured I'd snug it up a bit. Apparently there's a fine line between snug and snapped! So my 99 cent o-ring turned into a $40 clutch cable replacement. While the pipes are off I swapped out the stock baffles for the quiet ones. Took the wheels off to polish them up real good. Installed a set of Jaybrake forward controls. Picked up a set of saddlebag guards. Picked up a Lindby Multibar and changed the oils and plugs. Also, put on the Kury curved license plate holder. (Thought that the chrome cover was a bit bold so I'm not using it. Ended up spending $60 for a bracket I could have built!) Currently in the process of doing some lighting in the back.

I still want to install some HD auxillary lights but that will depend on how much OT comes my way. Next year will be bars and paint. The following year will be motor work. Just wondering though, why do some guys tear their motors down right away?

All the projects are looking good. I'm trying to figure out what rear fender I want to go with. I have Milwaukee Bagger Bags to get painted and as long as that's being painted, I thought I would get a new back fender and exhaust.
