^^^^^^ Looking good.....Q3's or +'s?
Last couple of weeks I put new rubber on, changed the bearings, cleaned up the front rotor and replaced the front rotor mounting screws. Today I took it out and got rid of all the little nubbies that were on the tires.

Big fan of those Q3+'s. Just put another 400 miles of ludicrous speed on them today
The winter project is progressing:
Disassembly

Reassembly

Fork tubes painted matte black
Tail, hand rails and luggage accents painted blue
Header and muffler ceramic coated matte black
Steble Air horn
Skene lights front and rear
Double take mirrors (The bike is stored on a lift and the mirrors need to be easily moved so they don't hit the ceiling. The lift is mounted on the wall - see in picture. The bike is on the roll-able 4x8 platform.)
Maintenance: plugs, wires, bulbs, oils, filters
WD-40 on Black engine casings
I had an XB9R four bikes ago and I'm looking forward to a vtwin again. My last three bikes were BMW GS's. I couldn't justify the price of the last one ($20K) while only riding a few thousand miles (depreciating asset). This XB12XT only cost $4,300 with 9K miles from the original owner with no molestation (mostly depreciated, no worries if I don't ride it a lot).
More photos to come.
Thank you to all the contributors to the forum! The engine drop to R&R the header was easy.
Impressive!!!
Looking forward to additional pictures
