Vulcan 750

Here's a photo of my Vulcan before she went off to the dealership, she looks naked without her saddlebags. I yanked them since they gotta yank the back wheel to replace the seal on the splines, and regrease the splines. New drive shaft fluid, full 4000 mile oil change is coming. Some mods you might notice (all cosmetic), accessories like the tank bib, tool bag, and the sheepskin seat cover. The tank decals/badges have been yanked, and the turn signals relocated for the saddlebags. She looks like such a small bike when I look at her in these photos.

I tinted the truck windows, and I like it. But I am gonna have them redone by a professional next month if I can afford it.

Busy, Busy, Busy

I gotta go to bed, but I've been staying busy with friends, and tonight was the first night I've been able to actually clean house in a week it seems.

• The Vulcan goes to the dealership for servicing and to have that seal replaced. They said it might be two to three weeks before I get it back since it's the busy season.
• Dad goes to the hospital tomorrow, there is the real possibility they may hospitalize him. Thanks for all your prayers, I appreciate it.
• I tried tinting my own windows, hah. You warned me Rob that I should get extra tinting material, and I figured it out that I should have bought two rolls. Nevermind, the one I bought wasn't dark enough for my taste. So I'll be buying another couple rolls on the way home tomorrow and hopefully installing it tomorrow night!
• Got my truck serviced by a friend of my dad's, they did a great job. Oil and filter, and Lucas Oil engine treatment. (I provided the materials, normally do that myself), transmission fluid change (with Lucas Oil Transmission treatment added), checked the brake pads, belts, hoses, installed an anti-theft bracket on my tailgate I had bought (sweet), new fuel filter, and the truck drives really good. No hard shifts, etc... There were no metal shavings or anything in the transmission pan. We're thinking it may have shifted rough due to the fuel filter needing replacing. I'll be tracking the mileage to see if it improves.

Hey-ya!

Got my yard mowed, trimmed a holly tree/hedge (I'm so putting Christmas lights on that this December!) in my flowerbed, planted my two new hydrangeas, festuca grass, and hostas (eBurgess sent me 8 to replace the 3 that never came up! How cool is that!). Oh, and I planted the Royal Empress trees! It's hot out there today! I'm gonna try and stay out of that heat! I appreciate all the prayers for my dad! :-) Hope you're all having a great weekend.
