Less than expected, but good



Well, the freaking tire took forever to get mounted, so I didn't get everything done I would have like to, but I still made some good progress today. I got both mufflers clamped and mounted and the rear tire and tube mounted and re-installed on the bike.


It's starting to look pretty good. I should have my brake by Friday and hooooopefully my front tire by Saturday. I'll be ticked if I don't, though, because that means I won't get a chance to ride the bike around until next Thursday at the earliest. I still need to re-do the fuel lines with the brass splitter and my new filter.

The bike sounds really really good with the shorty mufflers installed. It's not a whole lot quieter, but it sounds much smoother, which I think is perfect. I'm going with the Honda Civic motto: If you can't be fast, at least be loud.
