What did you do to your bike today?
- Thread starter Diluted
- Start date
I worked on the cl a little bit, cleaned up the side covers, resealed the head lamp, got all the oxidation off the chrome bezel, removed and cleaned up the front fender! Slowly but surely making progress.
I dont want it to be perfect, i want it to show some age, but that doesnt mean i want it looking crapy lol

How do you like the R6 throttle tube?
I find the stock throttle tube touchy and my first inclination is that this would make it worse, so I'm curious.

I am not sure I would trust it with 200-300 lbs of weight...
Lol I didn't break it. The person who had it prior had tightened a bolt in it till it snapped. I just bought the bike so I'm going through it fixing it up.
Btw I dunno who your putting on the back of your bike that weighs 200-300lbs but... You may wanna upgrade your suspension.. lol

I weighed 210 at my peak weight... I know guys and girls that are bigger...
I feel ya. I just know I read somewhere (maybe the manual) that these bikes are rated for something like 400lbs. So if your 210 and ur partner is the same or more. It certainly would be putting the bike at its limit. Not to mention geared up you'll be heavier.
My issue is I'm tiny and my girl is about 4" taller than me. So when we ride (not to mention if I tuck) it's like having a sail on the back of my bike. Lol

I took the duc out for a ride, took a moment to reflect at a very sobering place, Quantico National Cemetary.
For those of you that dont know me, i paid my respects to my mother and my littlest brother. All around a good ride.

Well if it's smaller stuff that you can ship. Perhaps I can help u out. It's become a lil side hobby of mine. Among the many others. Lol But Ive gotten pretty good at it. I don't have really expensive equipment so multi stage colors can be a lil difficult but I've done three stage and they've come out pretty good.
Did my buddies R6 rims just last week. But rims are a bit of as PITA. So I really only do those for me or close friends. Just to time consuming for a hobby guy. But hit me up lemme know what you got in mind
