Tires are original, maybe 1.5-2k miles left in them. Never dropped/crashed. Bike runs & functions perfectly.

Oil changes done as scheduled using Motul 10w-40 synthetic.

Complaints: A few light scratches from normal dual sport riding. Some of the paint on the perimeter of the rear rim was rubbed off when I was changing the tire using the "No-mar" tire changer.

A rear tire puncture was repaired with a worm-type plug about 600 miles ago.

I replaced the passenger seat with a piece of black cutting board material (cut to shape), planning to use it as a place to permanently mount a tool kit. I have the original foam and cover for the pax seat, and can return it back to stock if desired.

Today we tackled the rear wall with its intimidating roof curve...yikes!

First step is to attach 1/4" x 4' x 8' Birch plywood panel (trimmed down a bit, so actually about 7.5') to the lower 4' of the wall.

Next we measured the distance from the top of the 4' x 8' to the roof -- repeating every 2". We then transferred these measurements to a large piece of cardboard and connected the resulting dots with a best-fit curve. The results were 95% right from the start -- only some minor trimming with sandpaper was required.
To add support to the upper edge of the 1/8" plywood, we attached scraps of 1" x 3" to the wall. These provided an extra nailing surface for panel attachment.
We traced the contour from the cardboard template; I got jiggy with the jigsaw and the results were pretty good!

The wiring harness poking out of the upper right corner of the wall are the wires for the brake lights, rear turn signals, reverse lights and license plate light. We'll chuck these into some conduit at some point, probably run along the wall on the 1" x 6" pine board.
