It's Mardi Gras here in South Louisiana so had a day off. I installed the SpeedoDRD speedometer calibrator. This device is awesome. Speedometer was 17.2% off and I got it dead on accurate. I put 138 miles on it today. The engine is starting to loosen up. I hit 73mph and still had a little throttle to go. I only have about 335 miles on her. I also swapped from a 110 to 108 main. I was getting a slight miss around 7000 rpm's. With the 108 I hit the rev limiter at around 8000. 75 to 80 mph should be no problem. I'll put some more miles on her this weekend and try to do a top speed run. When I got home I decided to do a partial fender delete. That was way too long for my liking. Also relocated the reflector because the local PD are anal about it. Easy fix with my Wen rotary tool.;)

We had our Mardi Gras parades on Saturday, so no day off for Texas Cajuns. It was a beautiful day, none the less.
- You jetted down from 110 to 108 after ditching the exhaust baffle? |

I ordered a set of Plate lights like these to get rid of that huge light hanging out the rear.

the wires are very thin and takes a surgeon to splice them. you wont think they will conduct electricity bc they are so thin, but they will work. the only catch to them is either install quick disconnects or plan on cutting them every time you change the plates or relocating the plate mount. that's in case you were actually using them to mount the plate. some peeps use these on the body paneling too. |

I finished up the partial fender delete. I removed the existing licence plate light and installed the two LED lights. Looks much better.

I also installed a helmet lock. One from a M-07 fits perfect.

I like that, I need to install a lock on my bike, some of the places I park, I don't trust my helmet outside hanging on the bike... lol I bring it in the stores with me.

BTW, do you know if we're required to have a light on the plate in Louisiana during the day? I know it's not likely it will be noticed and I don't ride at night much, but if it's a problem I need to get one on the RXB-250L... One less reason to get stopped, and right now the only thing that won't pass if they do. I imagine some of the local cops would be happy to have a reason to write a ticket and make the stop worth their while... ;) I'll eventually put a couple of those lighted bolts on the plate like that, just haven't ordered them yet.
That said, I had a full tail delete on my GSX-R and ran it like this for a couple of years and never got stopped. I didn't even have rear blinkers, they were integrated in the tail light and definitely not DOT... lol |
Keep the ideas coming, Jerry! I just ordered that helmet lock and I plan to emulate your mods just about step for step. :cheers:
