I had to replace my chain and sprockets after my alaska trip last season. I had close to 20,000 miles on them. Yes, I babied my chain.
I just installed a chain oiler (scott oiler) will see if i can squeeze more miles out of my new chain.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I upgraded my seat to the Russell day long.
The seat sits higher about 1".

I read the instructions that koako had and the bar weight did not come out.
Used the so called GODZILLA method. Big hammer and a pair of big pliers.
About 2 to 4 whacks and it popped out.
Installation of the koako was easy. Just a matter of a few minutes.
*hardest part...
I purchased the kaoko throttle lock and it came in today.

I called two honda authorized shops for 8k miles service. First shop says I need a valve adjust. Second shop I called say I don't need it till 16k miles.
So I went with the second shop.
I have experienced only one issue, but thats my fault for not warming up the bike a little.
besides that.... nothing ever happened. Have 8k miles on her and still going strong. Shifts fine.
