Looking a lot better now. spent about 12 hours rubbing down and spraying. Done the wheels (not as perfect as i would like, but okay for now), discs (in gold), exhaust heat sheilds topbox base plate and grab rail . Also replaced both headlight bulbs as one had blown. Removed clocks and trims to gain access. Took it out for a shakedown, after 7pm. All was good. look forward to some daylight riding.

I finally got around to trimming the rear fender down to size. It isn't a full under tail kit like the newer bikes can get, but it sure looks better to me. I also removed the 90's tank bra. Looking for a nice Honda or CBR tank pad to replace it.

New chain on yesterday afternoon to replace the original (and I mean original......23 frigging years old) which had developed a seized link. Donk, donk, donk..... enough to make a man poop himself.
The ride was so good I decided to give work a miss and get home early to give her a good clean and polish.
Also found a better way to secure my new tail pack on the seat.
I'm happy as a pig in its own excrement now.
Can't wait to ride in the morning.
