I just borrowed this from an HD forum I'm also on... interesting.
I'll go first... I did absolutely nothing on or to the bike today. Our son from Alabama was in Florida this week and since I had a great ride on Mothers Day (my wife was in Georgia), I wanted to spend Fathers Day with him, our oldest daughter who lives here, and my wife... of course guess who paid for lunch? Still a good day! By the way... Happy Father's Day to the fathers out there.
Spent about 8hrs undoing everthing I did over the last year.
I had forgotten how nice the stock red is and how sporty the '13 tank looks compared to mine or the '14's tanks.
Oops... Looks like there's already a thread out there just like this one. Guess this is one for Guth or Ferret to delete. Sorry guys...
Lets start a fresh one, should be no big deal. Removed the front fork side reflectors and cut off the rear and side ones.
Removed all the the stickers from the fuel tank, swing-arm and frame. Next up, getting ready to sand and paint the side covers satin black.
Spent ten minutes riding up and down a stretch of road looking for the Blackhawks pennant that my three year old dropped out of our van window. Any excuse for a ride
I went to the annual Fenders on Front Street antique show in Issaquah, in the foothills of the Cascades. The CB1000 Deluxe got lots of approving looks from the antique auto crowd. I then got caught in an almighty deluge on the way home. Oh, well, I guess there is a reason they call this the Evergreen State.

Find it?
Turns out it never left the van - we found it later behind her seat
Not today, but yesterday with the kids at a friend's house and the wife studying for another tech certification (RHCE) I went about town and got about 100 miles of riding in. Today I got my battery tender lead installed (the fuse box on the lead fit in the little gap between the terminals on the battery nicely) and routed it through that hole that Ferret found, and put my silver side covers back on. The right side was a little loose with the red ones and I missed the exposed frame and contrast the stock panels exhibit.
