Bike is in the shop currently getting the last bit of some basic recall work done. I really don't like the local Yamaha dealer in the 'Burg, but gotta do what you gotta do. When the first question they ask when you drop it off for warranty work is "did you buy it here?" just anticipate it'll be there for the long haul.
Rear shock has yet to be installed, mainly because I'm lazy and working insane overtime right now. I think I've worked nearly everyday for the past 4 months to take advantage of quarantine hazard pay and....really what else are you gonna do? In that time though, I installed the cruise control unit which works great and will make long distant travelling much easier in the future.
Only thing left is to send off my seat pan and upgrade my front shocks which is pricey but needed. After that, the REAL work begins on becoming a better rider and getting comfortable with mountain runs and trail braking. It's fun throwing parts at a thing but I really need to invest time in getting better.
I have another trip set up for Georgia the week of July 4th and want to take my time a bit than just super-slabbing it like I did back in February. Maybe make it a two day trip down and do some overnight camping or something. Hopefully the service work will be done by then.
