maintenance and elec. done

I took advantage of this wet weather this weekend, and did the maintenance work that needed to be done, and added to the HD fairing.
I say "I" but without my friend Jerry, the bike might still be apart.
Thanks Jerry!!! you're the best.
I can't say enough about the new lift table and the Idaho jack adapter. Sure makes the hard jobs easier when you have the right tools!! The wheel dropped out so sweetly without effort Jerry and I almost cried :'( Not really but it was nice not to have to wrestle with it like I did the last time.
I/we pulled the swingarm, drive shaft, and of course the rear wheel. We did the full service, a big job done. The huge most exciting thing for me was that we..... no! Jerry, installed an instrument light bezel into the fairing. A lot of know how went into the elec. wiring. So now, instead of the idiot lights and turn signals being on the fuel tank consul, they are now up on the fairing. The pics showing the lights in the bezel,... don't do them justice. The far right and left are green arrows for the turn signals, then there is a blue high beam icon, green neutral " N ", red oil can for oil pressure, FI, and water temp. Oh and a little more chrome around the bezel, can't be bad thing can it?
