I got it from Ebay. It came right off on my trip. Nothing sticks to that weird plastic. Maybe I'll get a metal one and bolt it to the fender. I mainly got it as a joke. I don't think most drivers know what it means.

Good idea.

Oil change day. .7 liters, works out to 23.7 ounces. I put that in, and might have overfilled it by just a scunch. I'll go with 23.5 next time. I found just a few shavings.
For those that haven't done it yet, it's a 17mm socket for the oil plug, torqued to 18ft/lbs. I replaced the OEM plug with a magnetic plug. Didn't spill a drop of oil this time. When I owned my airplane, I could change the oil and filter without getting a drop on the floor. With motorcycles, it's usually the Exxon Valdez.
I'm going to change the spark plug to the Iridium tomorrow, and take it for a spin.

I installed the NKG Iridium plug today. 16mm socket and 12ft/lbs torque. The Denso OEM plug was burning fine. I took it out for a few errands and grabbed lunch to bring home. After 200 miles, I think it's running smoother, and getting up to speed quicker. I'm going to lop off the heel shifter, the next time it's on the rack. I haven't used it.

I received my Wolfman Medium Expedition Duffles WP. All the camping gear fit, and I was able to get 3 good rolls on it. I'm not sure I want it riding this high, so I will probably remove the box, for camping adventures. I'm going to work something out so I can still put a Rotopax on the rack. I have an idea that might work.
Looks like you have entire garage to your self...I'm jealous...

Yep. Just me and the cat. Scooter never comes out to visit. My old cat Sammy hung out with me in the garage all the time. He liked to pee on the BMW F800GT. He left the Honda's alone.

Tonight, I installed the Diablo tail light guard, Hard Racing shift shaft support, and a SKA, K&N type air filter. The installations all went very smoothly. The markings on the OEM filter and the aftermarket filter are exact. Interesting.
