I procrastinated from doing a lot of needed things to the SV over the fall largely because I wasn't riding.. I was putting $ together to move, and I didn't want to get frustrated with it and be moving with my bike in a million pieces. But now I'm relocated.. and my procrastination is now coming in the form of "why don't you just buy your roomie's bike, then deal with the SV later?"

My garage had a car and two bikes all winter(plus all the other stuff, like lawn mowers, garbage/recycle bins, etc), so there was no room.

lawnmowers not needed during winter time- to the shed!!! garbage can stink- to the outside!!! Car can take a little snow-Outside!!! Set up the bikes on a lift or jacks and do the work. I am fortunate enough to live in close proximity to Gas Man so I can use his garage. I could even put up his bike in my garage to make room in his and Uma could still park in the garage. Specially since she is goin down to the Fiesta this fall. That thing is tiny.

Default This winter 2010

Gas Man, this winter I would like to do the HID mod, the hog tunes mod, and the security this winter if you wouldn't mind helping with that. Prolly have to wait till early in the next year... Tax return money!!!!

So if I could reserve some lift space in advance? I will bring the beer or other adult beverage if you would like. And I can have Martha make some good Mexican food if you like.

Looks like I'll be changing the plugs in both bikes this weekend as well as air filters. Ordered a new set of Pilot Power 2CT's for the R6 and and the R1.

Man it looks like changing the plugs in these two bikes is a b!tch.

Speaking of 'procrastination'...I wasn't able to get this done last weekend so since the wife is out of town this coming weekend...looks like a great time to get to it. Guess I'll go ahead and change the oil while I'm at it too.
