I hope to keep the mice from building any nests in it, while it is stored in the shed.

If time permits, finalize my Harley Air Ride Police Seat mod, and paint and install a Road King 5 gal Tank. I'm starting a new job next week so we'll see if I have time on the weekends to get this done . Here is my mockup of the Police Seat install

Seat ! looks more like a couch to me.
Personally I find nothing wrong with the savage seat,and at my age the old a$$ is getting a bit boney,never had a problem.

Up to 100 miles I really have no issues with the stock seat either. I picked up the air ride seat at a great price and I've been working on a quick change system from stock to air ride & back. It certainly is a big seat, but remember that it was designed for a policeman who spends 2 hrs a day eating donuts

removing the savage engine and putting in a 406cc diesel engine and converting to run on waste veggie oil. To do that I need to go chain drive. As long as Im doing that Im switching to cast wheels from a gs450. Anyone interested in the diesel/wvoproject go to
http://diesel-bike.com/Diesel_Bike/Suzuki.html
Im essentially doing this very same thing with the savage and then taking it one step further. Luckily I don't think I'll have to cut up the frame like Crazy Jerry did.

I'm going to start my project to SuperMoto my 2007 S40.
Longer rear shocks, fork boots, hand guards, maybe raise the front fender add a small windshield.

In the process of re-doing the bondo on my tak. Taking my time this time with the sanding and I must admit, it looks better already.

Unfortunately, the same project started last winter: make a brand new Daisy.
1) Remove the oil leak
2) New belt
3) New throttle cable
4) New tires
5) New rear fender & taillight
6) New tank (mine tank has many dents)
7) New paint
I need too much money to invest in this project, money that currently I do not have! Without forgetting that in Italy the parts are sold only through Suzuki dealers and they cost a lot.
So i think that this project will be the next winter project!
Another summer without Daisy...
