after i backed my kat into a wall and busted my taillight, i know go ahead and make fun, my wife did it too, i bought one off a KR member. then long story short, gently dropped my bike on the high side backing out of a parking space at work. my right ankle is the one i broke 2 months ago and so i don't have my full strength quite yet so i couldn't support all the weight plus i was on a hill and my balance was off. my front brake lever broke off so i had to finish the day with rear brakes only. that sucked hardcore. i ordered new brake lever and a clutch lever carbon fiber to match my mirrors and rear tail lights and they came in the mail yesterday. i attached my my new levers and my new rear tail light and it looks better than it did. plus, my wife said she really liked the way the carbon fiber looks. plus it works better than ever... or is it my imagine?

Went for a nice ride up Rt. 2 here in MA and then replaced my headlight (low beams FTW).
Then I made the mistake of reading the forums and found like $300 worth of stuff I want to buy. I really need to find a full-time job, graduating now sucks.sigpic

Degreased the engine to find oil leak (slight seepage from one head bolt), replaced cracked tail light with eBay score ($15!), replaced rusty exhaust header hardware with new stainless internal wrenching bolts and scrubbed the pillion seat back to a nice light grey colour!
This weekend it's getting new rubber (if the tires arrive in time).1980 GS1100E, 2002 748S, 2010 ZX14, 2013 Bonneville T-100

well, i have had these blue decals on the bike since i bought it. i'll throw a pic up.. just says suzuki on both sides and 750 on the back. i pulled the decals off except for the "750". so now its just all black.
the fog lights are great! they're aimed good and arent bad, but, i have a 10000k hid bixenon kit for the headlight and these pale lookin lights on the fogs.. so i ordered an h3 8000k kit for the fog lights for 52.50 from ebay. hopefully i can hook everything up good. i'll get some pics up tomorrow of it. i NEED a bike cover!! recommend me something cheap..
i also got a new set of tires installed a few weeks ago, and i took off the license plate light and rewired it to work for my brake lights. then installed a red LED bulb w/ 360 degrees of leds so when i hit the brakes, it lights up the underside of my kat red. also there's an LED strip above my brake light that acts as a 3rd brake light would in u'r car but shines straight back, 60 degrees left and right, and 45 degrees left and right.. it's pretty tight! the GF says i'm much more visable at nite.
those pics were just to show the decals that USED to be on there.. the "750" on the back is still there, all the rest are gone.. the "suzuki" on the tank is still there tho.. i didnt understand those damn "Racing" decals.. they were the first to go like 2 days after i bought it.my garage:
