41 ft. !!  That's a yacht!  You're supposed to have someone else wash it for you.   [laugh]
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

I had my initial service done at SSC  [thumbsup] Btw, anyone experience having Eddie service your bike  ??? I'm just wondering because I have a feeling my oil was overfilled... Also they cleaned and lubed my chain, but the chain lube they used splattered all over the place, including my wheels... I don't think they wiped down the chain after lubing it....:-\

What does the oil level in the sight glass look like?

Last time they changed my oil (600 mi svc) it was overfilled a bit.  Looked liked they just emptied a four litre jug into the crankcase, versus the required 3.7 litres...been doing my own oil changes since.

I see.... I'll go take a picture of the sight glass later. From what I understand, the oil level in the sight glass should be between the high mark and the low mark while its cold right?

Always the best options.  Just did so on the KTM.  I swear that bike sure would more pleasure to own if it wasn't so F'ing difficult to work on.
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.

It's OK even if the level is at the high mark.

Darn, I really wanted to check it but I got called into work last-minute  :'( I'll post a pic later, anyways still kinda disappointed at the quality of their chain cleaning procedure..... >:( If I had known I would've asked them not to clean my chain....

Dropped off the bike at SS for the initial maintenance and for the Termi slip-ons install

That bike is not exactly quiet with the stock pipes on. You'll have to come ride with us so we can hear the Termi's.  [evil]

Took the SF down to SSD for an ECU swap.  Out with the Redline Performance flashed stock ecu and in with the Houston Superbikes DP ecu, the Houston SBKs' ecu seems to work better this time around...don't know why but it does...

Are you trying to match the number of ECU swaps to the number of fuel tank exchanges?   [cheeky]
