What did you do to your M50 today? - Page 8 - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Danthedawgfan · 07-21-2008, 09:18 AM

Rode to work at 5:30 this morning, almost got creamed by an idiot in a Suburban. Now I'm sitting at work staring out at my M.

Danthedawgfan · 07-21-2008, 09:28 AM

Typo, stareing not staring...

GeorgiaRoller · 07-21-2008, 09:37 AM

Removed all the bug guts off the front of it this morning since I was to lazy to do it after my ride last night.

Bama27 · 07-21-2008, 06:12 PM

Debaffled my pipes. Thanks to this site for showing me the way on that.

You had it right the first time; there isn't an "e" in staring.

I waited for my JB Weld to set up so I can put on my new integrated taillight. JB Weld you say? Abso-freggin-lutly. And no, I don't own a hot glue gun. My goal it so look in my rear view mirror at a stoplight and see the person behind me squint as I apply the brakes.

No pics yet.

Rode to work, was stopped by a guy on a tow truck who warned me of a severe thunderstorm with 70 mph winds that was 10 minutes away, made it to work in record time, and parked my bike, worried about it most of the day, and then rode home where my risers were waiting, then it started to POUR again... boo I have no garage.

DroopyDroors · 07-21-2008, 11:52 PM

Cleaned her to perfection!! Used the S100 engine cleaner for the first time. Works like a charm and would suggest it to anyone.

hidn45 · 07-22-2008, 07:26 AM

Well, had to leave her in the garage this morning - thunderstorm, hi wind - <pout>. Am going to order a Saddleman Explorer seat & some saddlebags today, tho. The little woman decreed this after Roar on the Shore Rally this past weekend -- her first real riding on the awful 'band-aid' pillion. Much prefer that response to "I'm never riding on that thing again...."

Got my Baron's Bullet Grip Ends (weighted) for my Kury Iso grips in the mail and put them on. Looks good. Nice product.

CentIllRider · 07-22-2008, 10:12 AM

Took that annoying Suzuki sticker off the rear fender last night and waxed it up nice. Next is a good washing and some pics...

tsaia · 07-22-2008, 04:47 PM

She just sits at home today.. Thunderstorm and unstable weather..

vhmike73 · 07-22-2008, 05:21 PM

I longed to ride mine...however, I'm on Mobilization for OIF and out in Fort Sill, OK instead of home, so I can only hope my buddy back home is taking the M out for a rip now and then to keep 'er happy. Besides, mine's got a bunch of added items that he wants to add to his own M50, so he's getting a good preview of what the pieces will do for his bike (pipes, PCIII, Corbin seat set, rack/sissy bar).

I hate all the people on this post who ride by me...yes, I'm extremely jealous of them!!

Michigunman · 07-22-2008, 07:28 PM

Rode to work, dodged the rain, oh and ordered a new seat!

Pinhead78 · 07-22-2008, 10:28 PM

Got back from work, put on the integrated taillight since the JB Weld dried. Not too much traffic, so no one squinted when I hit the brakes.

Trigger1985 · 07-23-2008, 12:25 AM

Got my M-Class. Installed The MJ Limited Risers

Mario · 07-23-2008, 07:55 AM

Yesterday got wet today getting wet, tomorrow..........get wet

BigInjun · 07-23-2008, 09:10 AM

Went to the dealer and lovingly drooled over the M50 I am likely going to get today or tomorrow.. if I can get my wife to a) not kill me and b) get her to not to cut me off from all benefits of marriage for the next 10 years

GeorgiaRoller · 07-23-2008, 09:37 AM

Pulled off my headlight & front turn signals. Sanded & primed them. Going to paint them gloss black tonight.

CentIllRider · 07-23-2008, 10:04 AM

Beautiful day for a ride in Central Illinois. Wrung the M out on I-74 and laughed at the commuters in the used sub-compacts, f-r-e-e that spells free, credit report dot com ba-be. Sorry, I have had that song stuck in my head all morning. Congrats Trigger!
