Oddly enough I like the orange one. Just needs a few chavvy bits like the washing machine door on the clutch & the daft breather off the filter cap slinging over the hedge.

I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Today ready to move out for a week, builders in to reno bathroom. Bike all chained up, might slow them for 5 minutes. We'll be at the beach, mini holiday. No cooking this week, lots of food places within short walk and of course my Mates bar might get visited. 😂 Looking forward to it.

Local Auto-Sparky came out today.

He extended the leads on my B-Kings MOSFET Reg/Rec so I can refit it under the swingarm and not on the footpeg hanger mount where I'd had it.

He also fitted my loud horn the the Hilux, it drains a bit of power so we gave it a heavy duty feed from the battery and used the existing horn to trigger the relay. Sparky took a few steps back and fingers in his ears when I demonstrated it.

Removed the grab rail and rear pegs from the Gen-2 and packed them away. Waiting now for the seat hump and new screen to turn up.

Went through my spares pile and found a pair of Gen-2 / B-King wheels. Might get them painted or powder coated, gold. There was a factory blue Gen-2 with gold wheels although I like the brighter B-King gold wheels.

It's much narrower and twisty than it looks on TV isn't it?

Got a Gen-2 single seat hump. Colours not right but I can fix that. Bike now has cheaper single seat rego and somewhere to put numbers when it go's to the drags.



The Gen-3 is still dual seat rego, even thoughts wearing a single seat cowl. As the Mrs only been on the bikes twice in 13 years I might single seat rego that too.

(In Qld bike road tax includes third party person insurance, if the bike is registered as 1 seat then there's no pillion at risk and the insurance part of the road tax drops considerably, my 14, B-King, Gen-1, GSXR11, are all registered as 1 seat, I couldn't afford not too. There's no fee or inspection, just sign a stat-dec to say it's one seat and no pillion pegs.  There's no Dept of transport near me so the local cop did it)
