I quite like my overly expensive dry cell battery. The catch is it's not so great in the cold. But, it is a lot smaller, letting me hide my Powercommander in the battery box, a lot lighter and it came with some free quick disconnects which is niece when I'm workin' on it.

But, yeah - they aint cheap.
-Throttle's on the right, so are the brakes.  Good luck.

Time for a Shorai!  ;D

Yeah I was trying to get one of those but all Coleman has was the Yarusa.....She fired up but it took some time.  Plan on checking her again in a bit to make sure she starts.  Good thing I have an appointment at Battley's tomorrow AM.  :-\

The last farkles are being added to the Duc.....Evo clutch slave cycliner, rear sprocket and they're going to make sure nothing is seriously wrong with the bike.  Don't want to get stranded anywhere....

You really went to town on that thing.  I remember seeing it before all these projects.  I'm curious to check out now after all your mods.

Speaking of getting stranded somewhere....I put all my powdercoated bits back on my bike recently.  Then I took it down the street to Teaism to grab some chai.  When I got back I decided to do a couple more things and I noticed that all three of my screws that secure the top triple to the forks had not been tightened at all!  :o  Good thing I wasn't going far or fast when I took it for a spin, lol.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

 ;D  It was a good reminder to take my time and check over my work when taking stuff apart and putting it back together.  I imagined what it would be like to have them come off the forks while riding; that would be fun...

finished boxing up the swingarm and related bits and started backing up my laptop for the fist clean linux install in over a year.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Frame sliders and clear alternatives integrated tail light for the Daytona:



Didn't take a pic of the tail light since it's not fully integrated yet. I'm waiting on the right connectors so I don't have to cut the harness or the stock blinkersignal wires.

spent the morning at Battley Cycles.  After everything was said and done it was the fuel pump that was fouled up.
