272.7 lbs with 2/3 of a tank of gas -at least that is what the math said after I subtracted the weight of the board the bike was sitting on.
I’m not bragging and my goal was not go to great lengths to try to lighten the bike. This was merely a labor of love of tinkering and aesthetics. This is...

Shift Light Installation
Has anyone installed a Heal Technology Shift Light Pro? I am about to install a Rottweiler fairing stay, drop my instrument panel to a lower position, and mount a lap timer. This will put my shift light and tach below my peripheral vision so I am thinking about a shift...
Looking for opinions. Shouldn't be hard to scare some up :D
If I spend three hours a week of hard riding on the track and this is all I do...
when should I?
change the fluids?
oil
forks
brakes
lube the chain
lube the major bearings
etc...thoughts?
I have decided to only ride on the track and would like to remove my headlights. Short of completely removing the instrument cluster bracket or using my angle grinder; does anyone know the secret trick to removing the headlights or is it major front end surgery?
Thought everyone might like these links to the PDFs with the exploded parts diagrams. I have a 2015 so I posted these specific links. The link at the bottom will help navigate to other PDFs.

I am considering a 120/70 Bridgestone RS10 front tire. The tire guy has indicated that he supplies many racers with 120's for 200's, 250's, 300's and RC 390's. He said that the RC 390 owners prefer this to the 110's and it should not change the bike geometry.
The same applies for the Dunlop...

I have a blown countershaft seal. Got very lucky. I spotted it before I took a corner with oily tires. Any other reports of blown countershaft seals? My chain was not over tightened, in fact it had started to loosen up a bit after the 600 mile service. Bike has 2000 miles on it.
