    ok, so i did all of the mods and took my bike for its first good workout today, I hit a jump I usually hit full throttle in third gear, only this time i ended up 10 feet further(thank you mods) unfortunately 10 feet further means i was swimming in my pond! I drained the engine and transmission oils and replaced the oil filter and I cleaned the airbox and the filter thoroughly. I also drained the carb. Am I forgetting anything?

    What about the fish? :) Sounds like you covered it pretty well. It may also be a good time to check your steering and pivot/swingarm bearings if you haven't done it yet. Honda tends to skimp on the grease anyway.

    I would pull the plug before I tried to turn it over.
