Just got home. Tomorrow you can have pics. It's dark out there. Or even later, as I'm going to ride the thing.

First impressions: Quality-all the best stuff on it. Sex on wheels. The seat is quite hard. The exhaust is ugly. Handles like a dream. The gear change lever hurts when I change gear.

Did I mention that the exhaust is ugly?

Pulled the forks on the DR to install the Ricor Intiminators.  But there's not a drop of 5W fork oil in the place and none to be found for sale anywhere today.   :(

Didn't do anything to the bike today; just packed up the old spoke wheels for shipping to the buyer. Snowing...  :facepalm:

Rear wheel bearings (3 of the f*ckers), new front brake line, filled and bled the front brake, new rear sprocket, made some front indicator brackets,  assembled some various bits and parts.

Ordered a set of tires.

I've been known to pull the muffler off the Viffer. A glorious sound.

Slipped on a new pair of shoes no my "Cinnamon Girl" and road her around the block in the rain.
