That would make you one of 2 people. Was the Rekluse new or used?

Installed new plastics. Worked on airbox, re-routed carb vent hoses, patched some paintwork on the frame (red Hammerite works wonders, by the way).

Default Shop time

I began prepping a couple of 2014 EC300s. Step # 1...apply dielectric grease to every electrical connection.

Default preseason prep

Today if finally got my mits on the GG for the first time this year (it's almost bike season for "me"). I removed the shock for a freshening and cleaned, greased the linkage seals and bearings. I'll try the JD blue needle after the ice takes a hike. Everything looked good so far.

I finally started the alum sub swap on my '12 300. Looks like it fits well. Have to figure out the battery situation. Need some hardware too.

Pulled the shock and swapped the stock 5.2 spring back on. While I had the shock off I installed an emperor racing link skid. Tomorrow will be an ironman rear sprocket, Millville 2 rear and a washougal sticky front. Need to swap fork springs too, lost about 20lbs so I'm going to try the stockers again.

Last ride on Sunday saw my bike being shot to the sky by my son (who is actually mostly riding it anyway). Result - some broken plastic, bent gear lever, fork not straight in the triple clamps, broken brake lever, but also a few aching limbs, a lot of bruises, torn riding gear and a hole or two in wrong places in the human body. In short - nothing too bad but there is a week or so with no ride.
So we had quite a to-do list today . As there is a Cervantes replica plastic kit waiting to be installed we removed all plastics, airbox, subframe etc and cleaned thoroughly everyting we could - frame, subframe, airbox, shock.... you name it. Tomorrow will see some more cleaning , probably also paint fixes on the frame.

What brand are those radiators?

And why won't your guards fit? Guessing radiators are too wide?
