Thanks for all the help Seb!

I'm going to have to ride over for a 'sag session' sometime soon! Maybe once you get back from TMAC and get settled?

Masking tape and a sharpie are your friends!

Every single hose is marked. Makes putting it back together a little easier!

I haven't been able to get back down to the workshop :(

We had a double birthday party for 2/3rds of my children this weekend so I had to bake cakes, decorate them, make chocolates, host the party, (this is Friday and Saturday), and Sunday was clean up day.

I hoping to get back to the man-cave this week. I have to pull the rest of the fairings, drain the fuel, check the valves and change the fork oil. Oh, and I have a garage door opener mod, as well as rewire my heated grips and find a better place for my stebel compressor.

I found aluminum rivets, but no stainless rivets. I should probably go to a real HW store rather than home desperate...

I like the mig - how it came out. Looks much better did any of the carbon weave come apart?

Nope, the carbon is untouched. The scotchbrite took off most of the flaky lacquer. The 600 wet paper scuffed up the stuff that was still ok.

I use the VFR for a commuter (much better mileage than the pickup, and heck of a lot more fun too), so it sits in the sun all day. When i got it it was already starting to delaminate. It was time to do it. Easy enough to do, and the flakes really were an eye sore.

I had a little reservation about doing it, but thought since I have the stock exhaust, if everything goes south, I could just put the stocker back on.

Running off to look in HowTo now...

HS:

I can't even begin to imagine. It's on my list, but I'm a bit timid to do the forks. Just doing the brakes was a huge leap for me!

That has always bugged me.

If I see someone fondling my baby I usually ask where their car is, so I can go and sit in it.

I usually get the 'wtf'? look. I'm not a big fan of stickers, but I will have one soon that alerts the passer-by to not sit on the vehicle...

:pissed: Pix????

I'm glad my wife doesn't read this forum ... I think I'm in love, again.

:goofy:

Sorry I missed wdgah!

HS: I buy the superTech2000 filter at Wallyworld, from what I've read, it's better than the fram, and less $$$ than the honda filter...

Now where did I put the part number for that...
