I figured since I have everything now i should take some pictures of what i’ve been doing so far this winter. I planned on upgrading wheels and going with the 05-06 wheels and ditching the 3spoke orange ones.

I also wanted a steering damper so i picked up a brand new GPR

Will told me i had to get Pilot Powers, so i did :walter:

I picked up some Vortex adjustable rear sets and some shorty pazzo levers as well. I had to get new bearings for the wheels along with a spacer kit for the wheels to work with my swing arm. Mirror block off plates. Did my gauges in a white instead of the orange it was before. Also took some pictures of the exhaust i customized into a GP style.

I know the pictures suck but its all i have at the moment. :tup:

Hex tools are pretty cheap. For my bike it happens to be the right size that I just put a 5/8 spark plug socket on a 3 inch extension backwards and use the nut end of it.
