Making progress

Here's the latest updates as of today.  4-piston calipers and Bazzaz fuel-control/quick-shifter are the last major items to complete before my first track day.  If I can make it out to MSRH on February 3rd, I can give everything a shakedown and then have 3 or 4 weeks to make any changes before the next trackdays on 3/9-10 and 3/15.

Updates and changed information in bold

Quick turn throttle tube - Complete
520 chain and sprockets - Complete. test ride successful.
