thanks everyone. it's a blast for sure.

The tiregate on the truck normally holds my spare oversized hummer rim/tire that doesnt fit in the OE location underneath. It's also usually reversed so the tire is facing out and the whole unit sits inside the lines of the bed. it's real convienent to use and fits the bike(s) well.

I'd normally carry the tire just in the bed when i have a bike in, but i hauled up alot of gear from NC, just hoping i wouldnt have to resort to the OEM spare underneath.

My dad is also on a suzuki (intruder) and i had to head to BP to show him the hangout/meet there. I was itching to ride the bike back and hopefully out to wherever, but i was already on borrowed 'familytime' to make it to the beach meet.

Lots of plans still for the SV, mostly cosmetic free/cheap mods for now as money is tight with the new baby.

Still waiting on the photographer pics of the track day, they said they saw sparks flying from my Ti laced pucks
