Getting naked last night...




Fortunately, I got an After pic just before midnight. :P As a bonus, I finally got that dang number out from behind the windscreen and removed the dead-end wiring for whatever neon ground lights (I'm guessing) the PO yanked before trading it in.

Fender. Off. Now. :P

And some high-mounted aftermarket exhausts would be nice too.

See that black case on the right side?

The coolant drain plug is on the top of that. So to drain the coolant, you pull the plug, hold the bucket underneath, and pull the bike over on its right side while opening the radiator filler plug to let the coolant drain out. Like a porn movie ejaculation, the initial spurt came way out over on the right where the paper towel is sitting. But I've switched it to water (that's the dribble under the bike), so in the future I don't have to care about mopping it up.

I've gotten spam promising me results like that with many fewer acrobatics.
