Upgrade Report
New fork springs, fork brace and braided steel lines make a big difference. Cornering is much more precise, forks don't top out on rebound any more and stopping is much more stable. Brake lever travel is about half what it was before and much less front end dive.
New windshield is much easier to see through (and over), but still has some buffeting. I think I just don't like windshields so nothing will be that great to me. Skeleton mirrors just make me laugh but they do show more of the road than my old ones. And my Captain Itch gadget holder didn't move at 70 mph. At lunch I'm going to try out the new earphones.

 My windshield comes off when the temps go over 40. That's why I stuck with the convertible shield.
