Gonna order up some much needed maintenance parts for the motorcycle today or tomorrow. My fuel mileage really dropped off the last couple years. I think it is the 02 sensor mostly but also due for air and fuel filter changes. They get $33 just for the air filter for this dang thing...

Geez Jay! I hope for that price the mileage goes up! haha A guy needs to do the maintenance or you coule end up with bigger problems! What do you normally got for mileage with the bike?

Edit: Could you get one of the 6637 filters on there? Lot bigger filter and cheaper! LOL

40-45 is fairly normal but I have been only getting 35 or less for a while now.

No chance of that Troy. The one that is on there barely fits! It sits under the gas tank.

I could maybe mod a big long snorkal and build a box and have the 6637 sit on the little rack on the back fender. Or leave the hard cases on and put it in there I suppose...

Well you can't complain about that mileage once you get it back up there. Hey I like the big snorkel idea! Go for it!!

All is good here! I have new parts showing up like the new 5" exhaust and the 6" tip showed up today. The turbo rebulid kit also showed up yesterday. It is kinda like x-mas around here for me!
