Nigh-Thawk Day 17

Fixed that fork seal and she is back in good running order. I've been riding the shit out of it since I fixed it about a week and a half ago. Its getting pretty cold and she's been spending a lot of time in the garage on the Battery Tender. I've been fighting through the cold with a full faced mask that's been weirding people out as I ride past or pull up behind them. I've been enjoying that quite a bit. I also found a side cover! On a random ride to Quakertown I stopped in at Larry's motorcycle salvage and dug through their 5 bins of side covers for over and hour. I really felt like I accomplished something in the end. I talked to the painter at my shop and he is going to walk me through paint prep and paint and I'll be getting started on the cosmetic end of the project very soon! I guess I should name drop him for those of you in the SE Pa area. WWW.VisualImpact2.COM  I'd be using him if I didn't want to do everything myself so bad. He does awesome work.
