Well I'm back in business. Got my new ABS model today and as it turns out between the deal I made and the insurance pay off, I actually made $300. However full coverage insurance for me may no longer an option. I guess I'd better not crash this one, eh? It's really nice to be back on the C-14, What a sweet machine. Three weeks and three days was way too long to go without, but it made me appreciate it all the more. I'll be pulling the flies and putting on all my mods from the wrecked one in the next few days.
Outstanding!!
Glad you are back in buisness. Crap, you have to break it in again. Oh well.

Not a problem. I break all my bikes in hard. This one saw 10k rpm two or three times and a lot of engine braking before it saw 20 miles. Changed the oil and filter at 40 miles. I'll be sure to vary the rpm for the first 1000 miles, other than that I break em in like I ride em and I've never had a problem.

And I'll tell you it was a blast feeling the difference after pulling the flies on the first bike. After riding it about 6K without them I guess I was pretty used to it. This new one, with the flies in..... Holey Crap! Where's that screwdriver?
