Cleaned and lubed the chain on the ZX6R, lubed chain on the 250R. Really surprised and satisfied by how effective Motul Chain Clean was on the chain and dirt/grime.

Removed the rim tape that came with the bike from the rear wheel of the 250. That was a horrible pain in the ass, mostly due to the adhesive, and I haven't even touched the front wheel yet

I have 1/4" on my bike. One set will do both wheels with 2 extra strips if you mess one up or something.

Got matching orange bulbs for my AC style turn signals.. The seller sent it with two clear bulbs and only one orange one?

I also tried installing my aftermarket mirrors but the bolts were too short

Hmm, well over the weekend I installed a rebuilt cylinder head and adjusted the valves on my '89 Ninja 250. I'm now awaiting new coolant hoses (a hose split on me last tuesday) and mine will be back on the road.

No. The exhausts are not interchangeable. Different engines, different bikes, different requirements for an exhaust system in terms of pipe diameter/whatever.

Haven't ridden in like a week. It's been rainy, I had stress fractures in my legs and then I got dumped.

I feel like all I want to do is ride but in a poor mental state I know it's the last thing I should do.

I loved my bike today, I guess. All I need between my legs for a long, long time.
