2 months to go

It's been a month since I did a 2 day track day at Thunderhill in Northern California.

Chris my riding partner for Spa came down from Portland and we each had a day's instruction from ex AMA champion Doug Chandler. I was beginning to think I had bitten off more than I could chew with Spa but the track time, instruction from Doug and very helpful suspension set up from Catalyst Reaction have given me a whole new confidence.

The bike ran great and the changes to the bike worked.

A bit louder

It's a bit loud

Final stretch

Almost done. Which it should be considering I have a trackday in a week and a half.

Astralite painted and mounted. Now if I can only figure out why it won't keep air pressure up......

This rat's nest is the wiring harness awaiting final routing and wrapping.

Checking wheel alignment.

Should be room in there for a cup holder

Muffler that doesn't.

Going round the bend

I've been unsuccessfully practicing my Uri Geller skills figuring if I stared at the pipes long enough they would bend into an exhaust system. Unfortunately that hasn't happened and I'll have to use my much stronger phone skills and call Ralph.

Notice the ever present hammer.

I actually have a bike lift but you'd never know......

Battery mounted.
