G, do you already install the control arms etc?

I usually do Front axles and wheel bearings at that time on those also...

I should go back I suppose
 
Not worth it at this point as then they will have to redo a lot of the work they just did. It's just one of those things that makes sense to do while you have the other stuff apart.
If it's good enough for now don't worry about it till it goes bad
 
The old rear wheel on my BMW ST got bent a tiny bit hitting a pothole some time in the last few years; the wheel was slightly out of true but one would not notice it riding it.

Got a new used one for an incredible $96 that was straight and true so what to do with the old one?

Made an outdoor table for some friends that have a sitting area overlooking Franz Valley and it will sit outside of their massive barn.

They aren't motorcyclists but i think they'll like it.

$50 table from Amazon and $50 thick glass top from Home Depot.

New Bridgestone T33 for the rear of the FZ:

And one of these!

I'm actually upset I've never purchased these 90' valve stems before. Makes checking air wayyyyyyy easier and life it better :cool:
 
Not the stand, the extended handle. Getting Tatanka (XR1200) onto the stand was damn near impossible, plus SWMBO was tired of coming out to the garage every time I needed to install or remove the stand under the bike.

Nice, I put some Yokohama ADVAN A052s on the 94 Miata in 195/50-15 size and they have ridiculous grip for the street.

Chances of kicking out the rear in the dry are exactly zero.
 
I have the same helmet but wishing I had known about the GT-Air II at that time, would have gotten that instead.
The RF1400 is still a nice helmet though.

How does that dark shield with night time riding?

I have only ever run a mirrored shield, which has a smoke tint from the inside for my 24/7 365 30+ years of riding and commuting in SF and the Bay Area.

Yeah, it's darker at night
:dunno

Some are ok with that, some not.

Going to be dark at night. I have both the clear and dark shield. Ride a S1000XR with bags and top box, so have room to carry both.

I tried on the 1400, the Air-3 and the X15. I like the fit of the 1400 the best.

I think when I have some extra cash I'm going to spring for a photochromic visor

I have worn photochromic glasses until I was 65 and had my cataracts done. Thought about a photochromic but they do take some time to change. So both the dark and photo would have to be lifted if I went into a tunnel. Most of the time I have a shield on bikes I ride so not a problem. May try one in the future, they have come down in price.
