To make sure I leave a battery-tender on whichever bike I don't ride very much! Its alot easier to unplug a battery tender connection than having to jumpstart!

I am planning on doing a few things here and there...

Before she gets garaged:
-coolant flush and switch to engine ice..
-get the fork seals replaced
-get a fresh oil change.

After the Garaging:
-HID
-BMC Filter
-Flapper Mod
-Finally install the flasher relay

so just a couple things to do..

New brake pads and throttle body sync today, yay! Bike sounds *really* nice now. And that whole actually stopping in time thing is nice too.

Swap out the water w/water wetter coolant back to engine ice since the race season will be over in two weeks.
Clean the radiator fins and build a radiator guard to reduce bent fins.
Buy a new set of race plastics and get them ready for next season.
Motion Pro quick turn throttle.
Get the PCIII mapped for Sunoco GT Plus racing fuel.
Possibly get a new suspension. Traxxion Dynamics internals and a Penske shock.
