Spent almost 2 hours engineering some bar risers to help bring the bars up and back slightly. No companies currently offer anything so I get to take it upon myself to engineer and fabricate something. Once I do, I already have a ton of people that want them… Hopefully going to go in to my work tomorrow and use the lathe to make a ‘prototype’ ---

Replace front and rear brake pads and man, so much better. With the 15 tooth sprocket I had installed yesterday and the improved EBC pads over stock…this bike is amazing all over again. ---

Put her all back together just in time for Indy (leaving Wednesday night). Upgrades include: New hand-made bar risers, powder-coated bars, powder-coated upper and lower triple tree, re-mounted GPS (for a cleaner look), and re-routed cables to clean up the front end a bit. Another big thumbs up to Mike at CRC. Once again, awesome powder-coating work!
