Picked up my 81 GPz550 seat from the upholsterer. Thought I'd take a chance on a reproduction seat cover from Thailand. I'm pretty happy with it.
Shiney seat is an original.

Put a new chain and sprockets on the DRZ-S and rode it to work every day this week. The ZRX is getting jealous.

Don't think I like those stock signals on there. Needs something a little smaller

I picked up a used set of CBR600 F4i Nissin calipers. After rebuilding them, my intention is to replace the OE front brakes of the V Strom which are currently wimpy 2 pot stoppers

Re: What did you do to your OTHER BIKE today?
Rode an untagged 2 stroke dirt bike to work for a week due to the car being in the shop, and the other 2 bikes being still down.... No tickets somehow.

Re: What did you do to your OTHER BIKE today?
Just loaded the V on my trailer for the first time. I had at least 2 inches to spare!!! Headed to the twisty country for 4 days.
It's a longer bike than the Rex.

Re: What did you do to your OTHER BIKE today?
You might need to keep an eye on the bike for a while. I tried a lot of ways to keep the straps on with the straps on the bike like that. When it hits a bump, the suspension compresses and the straps go slack until it rebounds. I finally gave up and went to the rear tire so the back of the bike could bob up and down all it wanted.
I got a strap thingy to go over the rear tire and down to the trailer frame, and that was the end of that.
I hope you have a great time!

From my experience with dirt bikes on trailers, this is my thought as well. Originally Posted by Cadman
