Well it’s winter and I’ve been getting the itch (herpes is a hell of an STD) so I thought I’d begin the winter projects for the bike.

As of now my plans are:

-Pazzo Levers (brake and clutch, shorty)  
-HID Retro-Fit Bi-Xeon housings  
-Powdercoat wheels  
-New bearings all around  
-CCT adjustment  
-Valve adjustment  
-LED swap for the cluster  
-Coolant flush/Oil Change (most likely not till spring)  
-Heated Hand Grips (depending on $ situation after everything else)

I’ll keep updating this as I go along, with pictures of progress as well.

Right now, I need a number for powdercoating, preferably local and quality finishing, Clarence Metal Finishing on Wehrle doesn’t have a number posted so if anyone knows it that would be awesome, thanks!

I still stand by Hot Shots, he did great work, it just took a while. Didn’t matter though because it was over winter.

HID Retro-Fit kit (Thanks to Tim):

Click and Roll Levers (Decided against buying Pazzo, not worth the money IMO):

_In Silver_

Now I just need to wait for the temperature to go up a bit, 14 degrees in an unheated garage is untolerable for me, plus I’m not risking breaking any tabs/whatnot.

Yeah but for $125 a side it’s not worth it in my opinion, I’d just buy Pazzo for another $50.

The ones I bought were $89.99 a side

nice mods for your to do list, after you have projector hid’s and levers its a lot more comfortable ride because you can see so much further and your not grabbing those bulky oem pos levers. one more suggestion thou, …rear sets make a world of difference in the comfort of the ride as well just an fyi
