So I am getting plans together to go visit my sisters down at Haines city, Florida for Thanksgiving week, its about 13 hours and 850 miles from St.Mary's county, MD, to there. I am getting a few things done on the bike before I leave just to make sure I don't end up on the side of I-95 wishing I had not been so careless.
The things high on the list are thus:
-Changed lower cowl lights to LED's, which saves around 22W of power, BTW, very nice bulbs, I brought up the subject a month or so ago on the General forum for the link to them.
-Change timing belts, I have it stripped down and ready to go, I have the Gates T275 belts, just need to find the torque values of the tensioners and pulse generators.... anyone know?
-Change out OEM grips for Kuryakyn ISO Prems with wrist rest
-Install DIY bluetooth audio upgrade
-pump up front suspension to 5 Lbs.
-Install LED spot lights and trim lights->>
I just did the carb synch that is said to be due every 25k (ish) miles, and it was right on spec!
anything I missed that should be done before I leave besides the usual tire pressure, oil, general maintenance?
oh, here is a pic of the LED's in the lower cowl, sorry for the glare.
