The harley has about 75hm, 95lb/ft torque. It is what it is. Its fun. But I was on sportbikes so much, I miss the power.

Hoping to start to bring my TL back to life, and a rear shock on the priller.

I have a 99TLS that I took apart and am powdercoating the frame, subframe, rims, swingarm and a few other bits. Also got a clear clutch cover and some other goodies. I also need to replace the clutch since that was on its way out. Also can get in and seal up the clutch pushrod and countershaft seals since I had them leaking on me. I also had weisco TLR pistons put in and a thinner head gasket. And the funny thing was after that my mileage improved.

My futura is my daily commuter and weekend bike for now, needs a bit of maintenance but is otherwise running well.

I also have a 2000 gsxr 750 track bike but will be doing one or 2 days this year and selling it for something newer at the end of the season.

Nothing planned for the R1's... but money allowing, we'll hopefully get the TTR running and upgraded this fall.

Sigh..

I am incredibly house poor, as I just bought the place I've been living in for the last couple years.

I was just at the dealer, talking to the service manager. He mentions he has a brand new K&N he's going to install in a couple weeks. Of course, I had to ask "Wanna sell it and order yourself another?"

$85 later, I'm down one "off season" mod. And I'll be eating Ramen for a few days..
