Default the memory game

so the fiance and i were discussing my new helmet that i want to purchase before laughlin, and we got onto the discussion of spending money on the bike, dont get me wrong she doesnt bash the bike, but she does like to talk trash to me. "I bet you cant even remember all the things you have bought/changed for you bike without looking at it! and you have only had this one for 3 months". so i fired back thinkin ha! you dont stand a chance, i can name everything i have done to it.......................i was wrong.....i fired of a bunch of stuff off the top of my head..........she fired back about five more things....i hate when shes right!hahaha

so that leads to the "game", without looking at your bike, off the top of your head how many mods can you remember. (parts, pieces, fab. work) anything different than the day you brought it home. i know this will be to hard for some guys, the list would be two pages but, its funny how many things you do to your bike and dont even think about down the road.

heres my list
front wheel/tire, front rotors, lower fork legs, cowbells, rineharts,ness AC, PCIII,hogtunes, powered/hidden antenae, powdercoating (headlight ring, shifter, clutch lever, brake leverand rear grab bar w/trim), grips,curved license frame, shaved rear fender, tri-bar to brake light conversion, saddle bag liners,solo seat, removed reflectors, removed whip antenae, smoked signals, "timing" cover, removed crash bar, removed seat strap (for 2 up seat), removed heal shifter, spun aluminum gauges, shift linkage.......and thats all i can remember for now..oh! black oil filter!..haha

give it a shot if your bored....its trickier than you think!

I get home about 10 minutes before the wife. I can always get the UPS off the front porch before she gets home!
