New Avon 90/90 installed. Transmission oil changed. Cleanup in progress. Also ordered an 11MM master cylinder for a little more brake feel.

Previous paint job on Economy Cycle chrome headlight bucket peeled off due to my lousy prep work. So I bead blasted the chrome off today and shot some Chevy engine enamel orange.Gonna let it cure till next break and put it back together, Do some more cleaning and it will be Dragon ready.

Brakes are over rated Tim, they just slow you down.

Thought I was done. Just ordered a set of FZR clutch fibers and a gasket from John at Economy Cycle. Frank B and me did 80 miles of shenanigans today and the clutch decided it would slip.
