Lubed the chain and rode her out to Starved Rock National Park along with 11 other members of a local forum here in Chicago. Had a blast and rode some technical back roads. Rode about 230 miles on her today alone. About time for a new front tire though. Anybody have one for sell?

My Kat got a workout today.
1) Installed halogen bulbs in my Competition Werks eliminator turn signals... much brighter.
2) Completed the wiring on my LED integrated tail light.
3) Drilled out the bolts on my front brake reservoir, retapped the holes and instaled new bolts.
4) Filled and bled all brakes.
5) Adjusted my clutch lever, brake lever and throttle.
6) Adjusted the idle speed.
7) Raised my head lights and changed their location so I can see better at night.
8) Eventually killed my battery.2005 Suzuki Katana GSX 600

Went out to practice some very low speed maneuvering. Then rode into the city centre to put my skills to the test. Stopped for a nice cappuchino and got a free Karmeliet with it.
(Karmeliet is a well known and exceptionally good Belgian beer.)
Open your mind, freedom's a state.

When in doubt, lean more.

Well, i just got a 2002 600 Katana as my first bike about a week ago. But, today I did my first oil change. Went pretty smoothly. I'm looking to change out the spark plugs...Is there a sticky or a forum for that? I am pretty mechanically savy but being my first bike I kinda want to know what I am getting into.Manny

Allow me to give you the hand I needed when I first got on this forum a year ago.

today i made a sissy bar for my girlfriend out of a headrest from an old Saturn , she was so afraid of falling off the back she would lean on me and it felt like 300lbs on my wrists when i had to stop...hopefully now she can lean back and relax and enjoy the ride more..

Moved my naked bike in the garage to a better location. Too bad all that plastic doesn't weigh anything cause it was DAMN heavy without a seat or being able to touch too much without snagging my pants some something important.2005 Suzuki Katana GSX 600
