    More from Yesterdays riding. On the road in the dark this morning with 100 km in before breakfast. Very glad for the extra driving lights. And hand covers. Electric grips on the to do list.

    Those are all done. Now on to the fork seals and rotors. Oh, and I need to pull the carbs and change some jets. And fix the fairing. And mount a tire.

    The handling is amazing when these run on the 17s. Tire availability really helps

    Nothing but admire its performance
    1800 km in two days without a single hiccup.
    Well except for coming up 10 km short in fuel range and having to get rescued. On the plus side I now know the exact distance I can go on a tank and that I can trust my fuel gauge

    Put another 175 miles on the bike today but it might be the last for the year, need to pull the carbs off and address a runaway idle issue that creeped up. Overall the bike was feeling somewhat lean so I think it's time to go thru them, two years without any major carb problems is nothing to complain about.

    Time to get Zestfully clean
