I don't have a list of thing to get done before the "riding season"...pretty much the only thing I really want to do at some point is replace my speedometer. I should probably get new (matching) tires at some point too.

Oh and get a truck and trailer since the guy who I was hoping would transport me to my first track day is bikeless and moving to Colorado.

I just got a new jacket and pants are on the way.

I need hard bags (Jesse?) for the GS but the Duc is pretty set up.

I want a new Arai but don't really need one.

I'd talk to Odie at Special OPS... I talked to him back when you first got your bike and he said he was looking to get his hands on an 1125 setup so he could hack it.

I've already got most of the stuff I needed to get.

Still need to get ohlins valves and springs rebuilt into my forks.

Need to get the ohlins damper and the custom under-triple mount I want.

The rest is just work, not anything I need to get... put on the new chain, wire up an ignition switch, sell some more parts, put the whole back back together and clean 'er up, learn how to not ride it like a gaping vagina, etc...
