Weekend ideas?!
Hey guys, supposed to be super crappy out this weekend and I'm looking for something small to do on my bike. Fender Elim is done and integrated tail light won't be here for another week or two. Anyone have any fun mods I could amazon prime for this weekend?!
Completely stock bike aside from the fender elim |

shim the carbs needles
cbr rear hugger DIY rim tape fancy bar ends new levers stainless lines adjust fork preload spacers some of those can be done pretty cheap, the stainless lines and levers r about the only things that would cost much.

Clean your room.
If you're living at your parents; they'll be thrilled! If you're married; your partner will be thrilled! If you're on your own; you can invite someone over without embarrassment! Trust me: there's bonus points you can't imagine for all of the above! Ok; I'm sitting waiting for my order and I'm bored!

Get a countershaft sprocket that's one tooth larger, and get yourself some bike luggage. You won't regret either.

Fixed it for ya.
Then sit on it, practice body position and make "vroom vroom" noises. If you can park your bike where there's a TV, bonus... watch some racing.

Wire up a battery tender, use the BT leads for a cell phone charger.
OR you could just buy some wet weather riding gear and practice riding in the rain. |

Get a solid secure stand that can lock the rear wheel in place, then watch videos on proper body position and mimic said videos.

Depending on your weight, you'll probably need to install stiffer springs before you can adjust your preload to get proper sag numbers. Springs of the wrong rate won't let you get both the static and free sag measurements right at the same time.
I bought my RaceTech springs from Amazon for about $90.

-throttle zip tie mod
-slip on/exhaust (rejet) -air filter replacement -snorkle delete -KLEEN air system delete with block off plate -HID conversion on the low beam -http://www.mo-door.com/ install or modify your garage door opener to work off your high-beams... -Knee grip pads like stomp grips or snake skin (I prefer snake skin for a street bike). -Rear brake reservoir delete (with some proper tygon tubing) -flush mount turn signals -bar-end mirror conversion (TRG is just the best and make your own stock mirror block off plates). If you need more, let me know!

Go old school, leave the bike in the garage for a while and experience other things in life.
Might I suggest... Or go scare some fainting goats Get video so we ALL can laugh too.

Snipe hunting is super fun!!! You will need a net and 2 sausages, put them in the woods by a large tree and wait. You will need to wear as much yellow as possible too, the snipes can't see yellow.
Let me know if you catch any.
