    I was riding home from work and this dude on a GS500 in front of me noticed me and gave me the signal that he wanted to "race". I respectfully obliged and put the hammer down :)

    He followed me down the next street to my house to talk and said "man you took off from me like I was standing still!"

    Loving this bike...

    A-mode is too much fun if that's even a thing o_O

    Ticking over 900 miles soon, haven't had much time to ride lately but trying to get the bike out some more

    Detailed the bike, cleaned/lubed chain, and went for about a 40 mile ride today since I only worked a half-day. Amazing weather.

    Do you think you'll delete the rear fendor?

    Maybe at some point but the rear tire hugger is honestly growing on me a little bit. I took the OEM reflectors off and trimmed the piece below the license plate so it is a little less bulky right now.

    I'm enjoying riding it more than doing any mods on it :)

    1000 mile oil change done, Mobil 1 R4T 10W-40 synthetic and K&N 204 filter.

    Need to check/adjust chain tension soon as well. Next oil change is 4000.

    Went for a ride yesterday. Also did some figure 8 drills in a parking lot for a bit. I like to do them every so often since very slow speed tight turns is probably my weakest point riding.

    Ticked over 1000 finally.
