I lubed my chain with my new Grease Ninja, all I can say is WOW!

No lube spraying on the bike or on the floor of the garage, and I used a fraction of the lube I normally need to completely lube the chain. Wish I had bought this years ago.......

Those little Ninja's work great don't they? Iv'e been using them for a couple years now. 

2019 Tracer 900 GT. 2022 MT-09SP. 2002 Buell S3T Thunderbolt. 2016 FJ-09 SOLD. 2019 XSR900 SOLD.

I installed new suspension. Wilbers fork springs with appropriate spring rate for my weight, and oil with higher viscosity.

And at the back Wilbers 640 shock with hydraulic preload adjuster.

Regardless of the brand - Ohlins, Nitron, Penske, K-Tech, Wilbers etc. YES. it makes one hell of a noticeable difference!  Suspension - in my opinion - is the best and most significant 'upgrade' you can make to any motorcycle.

totaled my 2019, not even 5000 miles 

some lady pulled out in front of me, admitted fault. 

broken thumb and bones in both hands. looks like it time to go shopping

 

the tow truck did more damage than the actual accident. but she did crack my triple tree in half

Dang, that sucks. At least you're most;y okay. Still vertical and breathing, anyway. Sorry.

@GroggyWeenis - Well damn... that sucks.  Happy to hear that you’re going to be ok, but sorry about the injuries (and the totaled bike).  

I commend you for your attitude!  You seem to be handling it well and staying positive.    Bad situation, but so glad it wasn’t worse.

This is a little different for a post on what did you do with your FJ/Tracer today? Looks like she did more with it than you did. Glad your OK for the most part and a good attitude. Oh yeah, OUCH!!!
