More gasoline.

I've now actually spent about as much on gasoline for the bike as the price of the bike was.

PhilB

If we assume an average price of gasoline per gallon at $2.5 over the past 2 decades, and mpg averaging maybe 40... that means you spent 12375 for your bike new... probably if adjusted for inflation...  ;D

Looking at the pics of the screws and nails in tires reminds me of a conversation we had at the NEDOC ride.Almost everyone has picked up something in their rear tire vs. the front.My theory is it happens because the rear tire is under power,so maybe the front tire just glides over it.I dread the thought of getting a flat front (knock on wood).

New ebay shorty levers (I'm inpressed with the quality for under $40)
Universial bar-end weights (from the local Honda dealer)
New bar-end mirror (doesn't fit but will go with Dual-STar mirror now)
Used (new to me) Motowheel clip on with riser (wrist and back getting use to it now)
New Arai Profile (Italian flag) helmet for me  ;D
2001 Supersport 900 Yellow!!! (she's just so much fun)
2000 Monster 750 Carb Dark!!! (Sold and still full of regrets)

I paid $10,200.  But I get closer to 50mpg, so that works out about even.

A set of BT-016's. 120/60 front and a 170/60 rear. Now I just need to figure out how to get them on without spending a small fortune.

Bought a set of gloves to replace the four year old Helds that got a little beat up a while back.

Get in touch with Artful.  He lives in Parkville (I think) and has all the gear to mount/dismount.
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.

Just installed the Sport 100 body art kit, the Ducati short tail kit and a pair of CRG Arrow mirrors. I bought it all over the past few months but waited to install them all at the same time so I could really see a change in the look of the bike.  I'm real happy with the results.

Here's a picture of it before any mods were applied...
