    Learned how to service the GPR steering stabilizer from the CBR600rrrrr.
    Basically take out the 2 flat head screws, activate stabilizer to flush out the old oil and install fresh 15w fork oil. I only had 10 but it is better than nothing. Added new orings since it had leaked onto the top triple.

    Unique perspective my friend took after a ride. He's in from out of town and I gave him the RC26 for the day.

    Nice rides Capt!

    My buddy rode Big Red and said she was too slow. I told him he is too fat. We no longer talk. JK

    I'm pretty sure (most) people who complain about a VFR being too slow are riding it wrong. Keep that fucker spun up in the higher RPMS, wring it's godamn neck and launch off the apex. You can do that all day if you want, a VFR really doesn’t care.

    Or they are not good in corners and just like to go fast in a straight line on their Busa or ZX14.

    DEE628CF-6648-424F-AF17-F7D712E55CC6.jpeg image.jpg Extended service completed. Bodywork is a Beeotch! Added turn signals to the lame LED tail light. Made some brackets and custom wiring but they flash at a decent rate and way more visible from behind. Little concerned about the distance to the muffler. Time for a test ride!

    Thanks Bazza!
    Whoa, new tires, new SS brake lines, fresh oil, new air filter, and softening of the suspension changed that bike a LOT! Fast as all get out. The most satisfying of all…. Cleaning and lubing the turn signal switch housing.

    nah, I pull the switch apart and pull the switch lever and sliding gear out. Clean off the factory lube (which is now nearly solid) and add a tiny bit of trilube (silicone spray pen). Seems to hold up and not make a mess. I could be doing it wrong, but it works for me. :)

    Nah you did it the right way. Whenever I run into an electrical related issue I start off trying to just get some cleaner in there. It's amazing how many times that resolves the issue.
