Finally got around to installing the new rear tire on my S3. The front will have to wait for another day.

:D i-ve been in Switzerland for 3 weeks and bought a lot of stuff for my XB12R there...
first I changed the rear wheel bearings.. then I installed the hidden Brembo brake kit, got new Handlebar ends and a set of new Diablo Tires, EBC Brake Pads, Alpinestar Boots and some more helpful things... [up][up]

Just installed my right side scoop. Took a couple weeks to get in from Surdyke.com but installed perfect in about 5 minutes. Like many others I'm not crazy about the non-symmetrical look but I knew that when I bought it so...
 
Well what haven't I done, ordered some new NGK spark plugs, she will love me for that and I ordered the header pipe heat shield from the Uly comfort Kit. I will love her for that!
 
I just got the side stand pivot pin yesterday evening. This evening I removed the side stand and extracted the old broken pin. I then drilled out the threads and put a 0.502 inch reamer through both sides of the side stand to fit the new, bigger, better pivot pin. Tomorrow I put an E-Clip on there and I am going for a ride!
 
Took the LightingBolt(2007XBCityX w/ Firebolt tail and fairing) To Summit Point Jefferson for a track day with NESBA, fast is GOOD!
 
Jerry C. I use to spend alot of time out there. My grandparents live on that road right past Tuscawalla Hills on the really sharp turn! Over the years they have had a few people run into their pool!
 
Rebuilt my front forks (Amsoil Shock Therapy mid weight) and put on a new Hawk pipe! I can't believe I waited even a few months before swapping out the stock exhaust! She is MEAN now!
 
The devils in the details........

Replaced the front brake clamp as well, but looks just the same!
 
I want a hidden brembo! I like the cable holder! [up]

I am woking on my Lightning tail now, I have

Both rails, the battery bracket, the lock and cable, and the bracket that holds the lock.

I need the under tray, the cheesegrater, and then the rails and the tail go to powdercoat.
 
Netty, didnt you get that one from me? If so great that you got a cable line for it and it looks awesome!

Thanks brotha! I bet you can't wait to get that S tail finished. You've been at it for awhile now! I haven't seen an undertray ad here before. Maybe throw a post up and see what you come up with?

I did Loki! Thank you! I had some trouble with it originally because the brake line was too short due to the left side banjo. So I had a line custom made by Speigler, added 3 inches to the line in a smoke/titanium combo. Hooked it up, bled the line and we're back in business. As I was doing all this, I realized how ugly and rudimentary the line clamp was, and I remembered seeing one on the Precision Engineering Site.

Subtleties go a long way some times!

And thanks Loki!
 
Installed different grips and was going to put underglow lights on but my switch broke. Also rode her pretty hard.
