I have decided to not Maintenance updates to my "blog" since I haven't done any 2-up riding since the latest child was a fairly big bump.

26,500 miles (Approx)

Replace Chain and Sprockets with DID ZVM2 chain and steel sprockets (stock ratio)

Apparantly the original chain on the bike, owned since just under 14K miles. Chain showed significant streching, but no link issues. The link I cut to get the chain off showed surface rust on the inner roller, but the z-rings were intact. Maintenance on the chain was limited to 2 cleanings by me, and 4 lubrications in 12K miles.

26.500 miles (approx)

Changed headlights to use all 4 high beam filaments when the high beam selection is made. Developed a "Plug and Play" modifcation harness at the request of other VFR owners.

27,000 miles

Installed Speed Bleeder valve for bleeding the clutch. Worked well...precursor to installing Speed Bleeders for the brakes. Brake Pads have arrived, just need installed.

27,300 miles

Replaced Rear Tire with Bridgestone BT021. Previous Pirelli Diablo got poor mileage...approx 2500 miles maybe, Dallas sucks as it contains no curves. Old tire was showing cords all the way around, and wasn't far from blowing out.

27,500 miles

Installed LEDs in my JCWhitney trunk, under the "Reflector"...discovered my tail-lights have a LOT of voltage drop...I only get 9.5 volts at the brakelight...more tests needed to see if this is voltage drop across the bulb, or if there is a problem. LEDs come on for Brake Light, and each side for Turn Signals.....cheap LEDs were used as a test, and they are not very bright...doesn't help that they have to be installed sideways...LEDs are designed to be view straight on.
