    I would like your opinions before i get started.

    Sync Gauges

    1200 center stand mod.

    Mobil 1 synthetic 10W40 i have 66k miles on it this is only my first real season on it i had a heart attack last year shortly after i purchased it. i always react by pulling the clutch back in just a natural reaction i think almost feels like it comes from the back but hard to tell.
