The bike went from no wheels, suspension, bodywork and really most of the accy wires all over… to something looking ready to go.   

Today I got a shitload done on the bike after work.

•  Installed the new suspension
•  lubed the bushings and bearings on the rear suspension
• installed the wheels
• Installed the brakes, flushed and bled them
• Installed new spark plugs
• Installed the controls
• Installed the tank and tested the engine, throttle, clutch, and brakes
• Checked torque on any critical bits of hardware I’ve worked on in the last couple weeks.

The problems though…  

• The new bars set as I want them hit the fairing, something easily fixed by a different set of risers, already ordered.
• Clutch cable seems a bit too long, but that may not be an issue with the new risers
• I broke a mounting tab off the inside of the front fairing… some Q-Bond to the rescue on that tomorrow.

All I have left now is:

• Change the oil (you can see the jug of Motul 300V Double Synthetic and Wix high cap filter in the pic)
• Mount the GPS (waiting on a new bar mount for it)
• put the rest of the body work on
• Figure out if I am going to do the VFR mirror upgrade now or wait… I am thinking I may wait… I am ready to be done working on the bike and start riding it.
• getting some 7/8th alloy inserts for the bars to see if I can get the throttle meisters to go back on.
