I took off my passenger pegs tonight. It looks so clean. Really makes me want to get a seat cowl and be done with it. For some reason I just can't let go of the ability to have a passenger, even though I'm solo 95% of the time I'm on the bike. It's just that what if kinda thing. Tell me I'm retarded and that I should get a cowl please.

Also, I thought one of my front rotor bolts fell out, but it actually snapped off and is stuck in the wheel. Not very happy about that.

To make things worse, the bike is still running like shit. I thought it was just bad gas from the painting and everything, who knows what was in there. I seafoamed it, and it periodically ran better. Today I put a gallon of 100 octane and then topped it off with 93 and it ran better at first but back to the shit. Just intermittently running well amongst a sea of shit. Under 4k RPM it breaks up/bogs down on me. Idling at 1500 if I give it gas it'll drop to like 500 first, then go start going. If I stay in a gear and "even out" on the tach so to speak, it'll start to break up. If I give it gas after it bogs like it does when it idles for a second. If I'm accelerating it runs like a champ. If it's fucked 75% of the time it runs great 25% currently. Probably fouling out my sparkplugs like a motherfucker, I've got a brand new set to put in but I'm feeling mighty lazy. Ugh.
