Winter projects/to dos?
#1
Install a cruise control, Rostra from Murphs kits. http://www.murphskits.com/product_info.p...cts_id=369

Install a gel pad in my seat. I installed one on my 2001 CBR. What a blessing to my skinny butt.

Valve adjust.

Clean up wiring for my Nautilus horn, a mess under my seat.

Install shorty Emgo reverse meg muffler. Not a big fan of noise but it needs some growl.

Most important! New steering head bearing. somethings very wrong up there.
Noticed my front end seemed loose last spring. Ended up have a tank slapper at 95 mph one day while passing on I-94. Checked rotor runout, checked wheel runout, checked tire and checked fork tube alignment and tightness. Every thing within spec. pulled top tree, lock nut only finger tight. It took 3/4 turn of adjustment nut to get back in spec. Rode out to Colorado and back with no problem but noticed that it's starting to get loose again.
