Replaced the rear tire, also shined it up the rim, lubed it up, and got a chance to inspect the brakes and belt. Also trying balance beads instead of stick on weights, took it up to a reasonable speed on the 70mph highway, wheel didn't come off so seems like I did ok.

Checked the battery as my tender isn't showing green lights after being in for a 2 day soak.
13.1 and 14.5 running so I guess it's ok.
Gonna ride the tank down tomorrow in prep for the tank lift and rockout/breather install as well as a thorough check of the intake and exhaust connections and a readjust of the pushrods.

Ordered up 11 spools of wire, crimpers, connectors etc for the harness rebuild, went to a swap meet and picked up a passenger backrest, front fender bumper and reflectors. Came home and began stringing antenna cable, rerouting wiring and planning the route for the new wiring for the J&M radio system. No wonder I'm tired.
