Just topped up with 10w40, put a few lbs in the tires, checked coolant level, adjusted chain slack, lubed (on my back on the floor) chain with 80w90 and gave whole bike a wash.

Planning on getting 1000kms in this weekend ... weather forecast is good ... prolly not too many warm ones left this year ... taking camera so might have some pics posted next week ...

Cheers!

Bought a K&N air filter cleaner/oil kit today and put her to some good use. Then I decided to change the sparkplugs. Sooooo....now I'm trying to figure out why the socket is stuck in the hole and how I'm gonna get it the heII out. Damn, I even have a Honda sparkplug socket in my toolbox. Just didn't use it.
