AIS GONE!! 1 Year, 4 Months ago

Well guys I finally took the plunge today and removed the AIS on my 07. Keep in mind I have NEVER worked on a bike and I was completely scared to death to tear into it. Especially since I went all the way and removed the tank to access the top of the intake to cap that off. I Finished it but ran into another problem when I checked my plugs

See my other thread for that issue. Also I didnt have any loctite but I tightened the livin heck out of em so hopefully they hold. I may end up going back to loctite those bolts anyway. Here's some pics:
