Dumb things I gotta do

I'm just trying to take stock here of unfinished business on the bike...

First and foremost, I need to pass inspection, which means getting the horn functional again. It mysteriously stopped working when I did the suspension swap, and I haven't taken the time to track down exactly what's broken.

Second, I need to solve the ABS and grip heater switch problem. Both switches mount to a plate that screws to the bolts holding the handlebars to the triple tree. Unfortunately, with the new setup, the spacing is different. I think I'll do something that mounts to just the right hand side, a small piece of aluminum or something. Either that, or I'll put together something that mounts to the handlebar crosspiece.

Next, I have to address the steering lock situation. I managed to get the ignition lock subtly misplaced, and the lock isn't working. I can't even turn on the parking lights... Although this might save my battery.

The sidestand is also too short now, and leaves the bike at an awkward angle. I'm thinking of just welding a short piece of steel into place near the end to lengthen it.

My wiring for the auxiliary fog light is still in place, but I have no mount made up for it. I'd really like to get that take care of. I don't feel right without extra light out front.

Handlebar risers would be a good, no, a GREAT idea. I may try to make do with the 25 mm risers in the tool box next time I have the handlebars removed. I'll probably have to fabricate some spacers to get the longer screws from the 35 mm risers to seat properly.

What else, what else? Oh yes, I want to make a mounting plate for the 'Dakar' tool kit, so that I can carry it on the tail of the bike without needing any other luggage.
