    Front wheel swap went just fine today. That was my first time removing the front wheel and just like when I did the rear wheel I learned a lot. Knowledge which will serve me well going forward!

    Still SO MUCH to learn. I'm only on Chapter One! But I'm really enjoying it.

    I rode her over to my storage unit after stopping at my mechanic's to show it to him. He was REALLY impressed with Joe Nelson's carb work!

    And as I pulled up to my storage unit it dawned on me I left the keys at home so went back home and then back to the storage unit and the bike ran perfect both trips. There's still more work to do but I needed to get it off my driveway for now and will try to do the same with the White RC26 that is currently sitting on my trailer. Will work on that tomorrow.

    Also, I have a decent chain guard for her but need to find the two M6 fasteners the right length.

    It was really nice that both rebuilt brake calipers slid right off the rotors and then right back on. I'm proud of that! ;)

    Those styrafoam boogie boards are fantastic to kneel down on, BTW! People throw them away here all the time so I usually have a few in the garage to use.
