Did you break your header? Looks like its wearing a cast..
PLasti-dip wont hurt the fiberglass I guess?

Theres a much better fitting heat shield for it, nowchew ditched that chrome trash can of a muffler. YOu can get the better clamps on it when youre swapping the shield out. IDK, if its working now, will it keep working? I seriously dont have a clue about exhausts, if its holding today, does that mean its gonna be holding in 2 years?

the old muffler heat shield is there mainly cuz that's where the crappy clamp I used is and it covers it, its also exactly where my leg goes when im stopped lol, the plasti dip is on the helmet not the exhaust. the cast is the exhaust wrap lol

If you post up the engine guard, I'm sure someone here will buy it from you...it's a Wingerline that is quite hard to come by. Put some more $$$ back in your bike-mod fund 8-)

Worked on my full sized toys... trucks and tractors, although I did back the bike out of the barn (it was in the way). Spent several hours working in the garden. Planting season is here, the trucks are more useful than the bike, and can't waste good weather on it either.

The wife and I went on our first Poker Run in 7 years!! Although it was a Pikes Peak Ladies of Harley run, they were quite nice to us! Yep, we really enjoy being RIDERS again! ;D

EJID thanks for the heads up, I didn't realize what I had as it came with the bike. just have to figure out how I would pack it up and still keep shipping down if someone wanted it shipped

Little bit of work on the front end of my cafe conversion (really need to start a build thread :-X), unpacked the new metal lathe, and took the "other" bike out for a quick jaunt. Weather was beautiful!

I was lazy all weekend and spent most of my time in bed watching movies. ::)

I ended up paying for my laziness though as one of my CC numbers got stolen and they managed to rack up almost $600 in online buys today before I caught on, :'( So I've been on the phone all day dealing with that, instead of being able to work on a Top Secrete project I'm helping Verslagen out with.
