Oh No Been a rough 2 weeks for Piccolo

Welp. It's been an interesting 2 weeks.
1) The ignition key locked up.
2) A flat almost new rear tire.
3) The new R/R I replaced December last year died.

What did I learn?
1) After spraying a bunch of WD I found I needed to hold the key in a special way to work.
2) You can safely run.... 22 ounces of Slime tire sealant in a motorcycle tire and hit freeway speeds. Never found the puncture.
3) You get what you pay for and I'll buy another 20 dollar R/R assy.

For now I have a second battery on the bitch seat parallel with the first to give me the amp hours to do a days commute and errands and then charge at night. Still had the mods packed away from last year.
For now the rear is holding air just fine for days. The leak was so bad it could go from aired up to flat in 10 to 15 minutes. That Slime is something isn't it?
