My pretty girl went to the Range today, but as an observer. She watched as students learned to ride.
We rode home in a rather spirited fashion which she really enjoyed.
She's in bed now, night night.

I,,,,,,,,,, tried hard to see how far she'd go before runnin out gas,,,
Beautiful day for riding,, About 65-70 miles from home, about 3/16th - 1/8th of a tank on the Gauge,,,, I pulled into the station,,, No billfold,,,Left it at home,,,
Called the Mrs,,, "SOS!!!!" (Stupid Old Shiet done left his wallet at home!) LOL!!!
Couldn't even buy me a Dr Pepper,,,
So,,, I slow-putted back,,, (just under 2500 rpm) She met me at a station about 13 miles from the house. Light was on for 20+, Never did run out. Almost a full needle in the red. 6.1 gallons to fill.
(Hey, it was better than last time!!! She had to wire me cash that day!)
Ain't gonna be a next time,,, This stupid old shiet stashed some cash on the bike,,,
Been there! That's why I also have a key hidden on the bike along with some cash.Originally Posted by Scotrod

I put my throttlemister on the bike. Let me clarify that. When I opened my garage door headed to the airport UPS just pulled up. He handed me the package and I put it on the seat. :'-(
Okay, I actually installed my Throttle Miester today. Very easy to install and works well. I'd still prefer my old thumb lock one but not available for the heated grips.
Also got ride of my temp plates. That makes me smile.

[QUOTE=bigbird;43237]Here's my report:
You might be interested in my observations of my first oil change.
First, if you have a centre stand which I don't have but am getting, the job will definitely be easier. With my bike on the side stand, my oil drain pan barely fit under the belly pan. I couldn't remove both the drain bolt and the filter at the same time. There was zero clearance for my hand or tools.
Harley makes a very long an low about 3" high plastic drain pan, if you can fit it under a Hawg should work fine on the Honda.

I washed her with Dawn dishwashing liquid to get old wax off as best I could. Then coated her with Maguier's Swirl X. Then finished off with her first (of many) coat of Liquid Glass. I am impressed. She really shines. I look forward to get about 10 more coats on her.
1012 miles door to hotel.
She does NOT like to go slow on the highway.
This could be problematic....
Cheers,
Steve
