Too hot to ride


Well it's too hot to ride so time to do some work on the bike.
I will be moving some of the items on the dash, re doing the aux wiring harness and adding a power commander V,with the auto tune O2 kit and the LCD display in the dash.
I know, like I need more things on my bike.
As I go along I will blogg my way thru.
Prior to the GBU rally I installed a set of D&D slip on's and a K&N air filter. My fuel mileage went from an average of 38 mpg to 43 mpg this was figured on my entire 5670 mile ride!
Nice increase for little cash and just a few hours work.
I am excited to see what happens with the power commander installed. With the LCD option I will be able to switch fuel map settings on the fly. I hope to pick up a few more MPG at cruise speed and switch it over to power when I am in the twists.
More later

It is only 3 miles from the house , I love the MERA No BS just Ride Logo so why not have it put on for "EVER" Rudy was  waiting when I showed up and ready to help me.
