Guess What I Did Today?

So, the battery tender arrived today and I was anxious to get it installed. Went out, opened the driver seat ready to install the dongle for the tender only to realize it already had one. Was that an accessory I didn't see mentioned anywhere or did I just get lucky? Connected the dongle to the charger, plugged it into the wall and subsequently found a pair of T-Rex Racing swingarm spools, so they were next to install. On the final stroke of luck for the day had a Woodcraft rear stand laying around, so guess what? With that, grabbed a can of Plexus and did the first of many, lifetime cleanings of the bike. This is where we sit now.

Mine didn’t have one.
I know my Ducati dealership added one on my Scrambler for the long winters here.

I ran mine into the rear cowl area.

Haven't know too many dealerships to give much away, so I will just take it and smile. Ran it right down the side of the tail section next to the battery as I have on all my other bikes.

It’s Alaska. Many of the dealerships also store bikes for the winter (for a monthly fee of course) , they said it’s easier to put them on all of their bikes when they put the batteries in- easier than doing it after for storage charging. Can’t see it being more than a few bucks wholesale.

Probably right. Saved me a few minutes of time doing the install anyway.
 
She looks fast just sitting there even with that big fender in place. That kit plus some ProGrip 761 grips should be here this week and are the next install.

PrpGrip 761's
best grip ever
I put them on all my bikes, and have 2 or 3 pairs on shelf now, lol.

and
The bike needs a rug to park on.
Garage is a blank(a good thing).
I normally could care less...but that's a $20k+ motorcycle...get a fancy rug

You know I never thought about a rug. I've only been in the house for a few months, so still trying to get things organized. Might be something I get to one of these days.

I have the same grips on all my bikes, as well.
 
Updating this thread, received the single seat cowl from the dealer, as well as, the Yosh Fender Eliminator, T-Rex frame sliders and ProGrip 761 grips. Awaiting some MC Motoparts footpegs, Bagster tank protector, Quadlock smartphone mount, TPX radar detector mount and Zero Gravity double bubble windscreen.

The burnt gold color is better in person, but still not sure about it. Thinking, thinking, thinking. Probably should just go and ride.

Anyway, here she is in current form.
