Hey SP, I know some fancy batteries need just a bit of exercise before cranking when cold.  I've heard that turning the headlight on for 30-seconds or a minute before cranking will actually make them work better in cold weather.  Haven't used one myself yet though - the bikes I have and am worried about weight have no batteries at all.  Eventually maybe I'll try and knock some lbs off the street machines though:)

As for what I did - last night I hung the H1 from the garage door track bracket to remove the front wheel, which is off at MFI getting fresh rubber installed right now [evil]

Had a little chat with a guy about welding an exaust for Bianca.
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.

New shower system came in, time to cut some drywall and sweat some copper :) (oh, and pray that the distance between valves is the same so I don't have to cut tile... :-\ )

likely to be whatever stock exhaust are made of. :-[

This is still phase 1 for me, IE: get the pregnant dog running asap. So I plan to have him adapt either a stock 748/996 or S2r exhaust for my needs.

I might know a guy with an s2r exhaust if you don't have one already. ;)
