Speed Bleed everything. That is the number one modification I make to any vehicle I own.Brake fluid and clutch fluid changed and speed bleeders installed.

So what’s the advantage of Kineo wheels ?I just got my Kineo wheels!
Well done!I guess this counts. I finished building my toolbox organizers and toolbox dolly that holds my tools for working on the Super Tenere. The dolly began life as a furniture dolly from Harbor Freight.
Three 2x4's, one 1x4, and a glued up shelf from Lowe's formed most of the dolly. I wanted it to be small enough to tuck into a corner, and all the tool carts I found were too big. The socket organizer was made from a piece of half inch plywood, and a bunch of 1/2", 3/8" and 1/4" dowel rods. The ratchet organizer is another piece of half inch plywood; I traced the outlines of my ratchets, extensions, etc onto the plywood, then cut them out with a coping saw.
I put an LED light under the tabletop, so it would illuminate the lower tool box and make it easier to see the contents. There's enough clearance to be able to open the lid on the lower box without having to remove it from the dolly.
I made holders for my breaker bars from 1/8" aluminum angle and pieces cut out from a discarded cutting board.
In its new home in the garage.
Looks good. Waiting for installed pics.Purely cosmetic.
My oem disks went out of spec at 26k miles. Nothing wrong with Galfers but I replaced mine with PFMs which are quite a bit better. Paired with SBS pads. This is the setup I use on both my bikes along with Hel brake and clutch lines and a refreshed master cylinder piston and seals on brake and clutch. All of these changes make a considerable difference to braking performanceI have never found a bike that at 45,000 needed a new rear disk. I ride with EBC HH pads and ride through twisty roads aggressively using both brakes and engine braking. Yamaha must have used a very soft steel for these rotors as this is the 2nd post I have seen on this subject. If so it will be aftermarket rotors for me. I'm interested to see if others are watching out for this during routine maintenance.

Arrow headers are nice but the end can is the game changer. Huge reduction in weight and compliments the headersThey may ‘not be needed’ but then none of it is… it works ok as it is. I just don’t want the pollution control bollocks on there. Standard can with arrow headers and a flash is my end game.
