Vroooooom.

Accomplishing goals feels so great. After getting the bike running last week, I figured I’d need to do some fine tuning, but after cruising around for a bit and putting the velocity stack on, Rocky is running great. No stutters, no hiccups, nada. What does that mean? That means its time to get going on making the bike look better and older and cooler and faster. Below you’ll find photos of how I added a K&N filter element to velocity stack, some photos of how it looks on the bike and a video of the bike during the first startup after the filter install.
Grips came in today and handle bars and bullet blinkers for the rear are on the way. Also, ordered a new rear tire (Maxxis 150/90 15 White Wall), front tire (Avon AM26 Roadrider 90/90 18), new tubes for both, a rim strip and a new chain (DID 520ERM2-120 GOLD). Now, im just waiting. Hmph.
