Let me try again. I don't know what happened to it.

Got new fork springs! Hopefully I can get more sag without bottoming out while braking when the season starts in march/april...

Side stand hard standing.
I previously would put a small piece of plywood on the grass so the side stand would not dig in on the soft ground and risk the beast falling over. Got sick of moving it around with my foot when I got home to line up with the side stand.
Finally took the time to put down some nice pavers. Perfectly level (easy when you are only doing six) and sealed. In the photo to the right you can see the crappy bit of wood I used before. $30 worth of pavers from the hardware store and some left over sealer.

Next on the list was a little wooden ramp I made to get over the bump at the entrance to the garage. Made from scrap wood with a thin layer of steel over the top and some left over white paint. The steel was the most expensive $29 at the hardware store.

Here is a pic of my new bike stand which makes life so much easier. My hint would be if you know you are getting one of these and building a shed then make a pit for it so it can be level with the floor. That would make it so easy to get the bike on. The advantage leaving it at floor level is that you can move it around. I purchased some little wheels and a handle with this one that make it easy to move around.

Saw this thread on a day when I actually did something to my bike. I put new brake pads on Monday. I put on the EBC HH pads. Thanks to a thread on this forum I knew what to look for and it was a simple and fast job.
I then went to start the bike and the battery did not have enough charge. The bike is five years old with about 19,000 miles on it so I certainly can't complain. I did put a charger on it and started it, but decided to order a new battery. I have a Shorai Lithuim on the way. I just put one on my S1000R a couple of months ago and am very happy with it so far.

New Ducati Anniversario
Simply started and allowed the engine to run up to temperature to circulate oil. Wanted to ride but it is 36.0F and there is too much salt / slush on the road.
By the way, when using the "quick up" and "quick down" function switches, they seem to have no effect on the instrument display when operated. Must a specific mode be selected for the "up" / "down" switched to be effective?

You need to be in Race mode.

Replaced tires with Metzeler K3's instead of SC V2's. Love them.

Yes thats exactly what said when I open the boxes. Ultra light and there is no comparison with other brands period.

Amazing quality and super light.
