My latest toy SOLD $1500

Yes I knew that but it would be an expensive deal to covert the US model to that switch by the time the harness was gathered along with the switch assy and the shipping from Europe.

New pictures for those who like pictures. These first ones ended up in reverse order so bear with me.The ugly brown paint was carefully scraped / chipped off with the sharp edge of a credit card then the blue was lightly buffed.

The latest pictures. These show the addition of bags, a temporary volt meter, new gas cap and a few other minor renovations that don't show.

looks good.

could i ask what are you using to clean the bike? The whole thing is so shiny

[wingman]

IF I wash it I use S100. Mostly I wipe it down with Lemon Pledge (not on the leather). The shield is cleaned with a bath towel soaked in warm water and laid over the shield for a few minutes, wiped dry with a 2d clean towel and if needed polished with Plexeus plastic cleaner (expensive but worth it). The seat and bags get a simple wash and an occasional wipe with Back-to-Black when needed. From time to time I go over painted surfaces with Liquid Glass. This is also expensive but a pint can supplying 2 bikes has lasted for about 2 years and appears to be still about half full. I would attribute some of the shine to good lighting and a great camera.

Looks like you spent a lot of time on cleaning that engine.

I have just installed a 17 tooth front sprocket and am very pleased with the result. I find it much smoother to control on take off and more in the correct rpm range for getting around town. Not so peaky. It will still go like crazy. Maybe the weather will soon be suitable for a ride on the slab for a high speed test.
