Getting it sorted

Did an oil n filter change ( rotella T 6) .Becauase of the front wheel issue , I just put 4.8 quarts in it.Which will read at the bottomm of the dipstick shaded area when on the level.( I’m sure with the stock rim , it would be at mid point). I pumped 12 psi into the rear shocks and it feels a little harsh.Maybe I’ll reduce it.( there was no air in them at all). It’s 93degs here today, with a “feel like factor” of 105.The bike temp ran at 3/4 whilst moving.Imhoping it’ll be better when I get it “Ivanised” next week. Got caught in a thunderstorm coming home, but no big deal( the bike ran cooler lol).Meanstreak kickstand next week.With the 21” front wheel it’s a bit of a pig to sit upright( the apes don’t help my short ass neither)

Vet,

How are you coming on this to-do list? Did the IVAN's happen? Which bars are you considering?

Keep us posted...

Ride safe,
Smokier

Got the “Flash” done, was very happy.Ill keep the 10” bars that are on it.Once I’ve done the daymakers, I’ll be happy.I put a slightly larger screen on, and it improved the radio quality
