So i was able to go home this weekend for less than 24 hours. I spent the majority of the time working on the bike. Here is what I got done:

1) I shimmed the needles to 3 washers, It runs great I notice a significant increase in power, especially in the mid range, I don't really have to keep it in the high rpm range to get power out of it. However, with this performance increase, there is a trade-off. I got about 42 MPG today, traveling on about 95 miles from my home to school, the whole time i was goin about 85, just to give you all an idea of the rpm range it was around 10k the whole time.

2) I also got to put on flush mounts .

3) I did a fender eliminator and bought license plate light bolts to use as my license plate lights.

The bike runs great, and is beautiful, I'll post pics when I get a chance. Thanks for all your help everyone who contributed to the forums.
