I purchased a house with my girlfriend. So, we’ve been spending a lot of time doing some upgrades on the house, painting, moving stuff, etc. Being a homeowner is a great feeling. :)

The Festiva is sitting out behind the new house. The Tenzo seats were mounted a few months ago and they’re great! I can’t wait to see how they work for autoX. I ordered a new set of tires for the 13′s that I got from the Cabela’s meet. They’re 175/50′s and they are the same tire I ran on the Pimptiva when I had air suspension. Hopefully they’ll hold up to the abuse I’ve got in store for them.

The bike is torn apart for a few mods. I removed the airbox and put a cone filter on, rejetted the carb. I’m moving the battery into a bigger set of saddlebags, changing to a set of 10″ mini apes (I think), and a new straight pipe exhaust. It should open it up, be a little beefier, and it’s certainly louder. :)

Pics of all the new stuff to come!
