Did the airbox mod tonight. Checked over the entire bike... only issue found was that the bolt that the clutch lever pivots on was loose.

Bike is ready for next weekend. It might rain during the week. If it rains too much, I may be forced to work Sat.

:cry:

Lower bolt is Honda, upper one is Grade 8.8 Hardware store.

As for as the airbox and boot, I have no idea...

I've had the bike out 3 x now.... with the exception of the airbox snorkel,not 1 single issue.

I'm going to strip it down before the '08 HoonFEST at Terence's place to add the battery and wireing for the lights and double check everything.

If anybody needs detailed photos of any part of the bike, say so now.

I may be assisting Danny Graves on building a sister to mine...

Its getting me excitied all over again!

ya, when I put my foot down about my expectations out of the deal, he backed out, even though it was a kick-ass deal. Oh well, I am keeping my eyes open for another gen-3 or 4 to do soon!
