The Way

Hello I am from oxnard ca and am currently serving in the desert. I ride a 2007 25th anni edition and am looking for upgrades I can do myself when I get back. I look forward to riding with a lot of you when I get back. Thanks for any information you might have to share.

Are you looking more for performance upgrades or cosmetic upgrades? How mechanically inclined are you?

Regards,
Rollin

out of the box, i put the Sargent seat and Heli bars on...
probably the best money spent... and there's been plenty.

I am mostly looking for performance upgrades but adding a little style woujdnt hurt either. I am usually not able to respond right away because of my location so please be patient with my responses. I am really excited about getting back to the state and riding. I miss the breakfast at the rock store.

How handy are you with a toolset? Do you consider yourself to be pretty mechanically inclined or do you usually end up with a box full of extra parts when putting something together?

Regards,
Rollin

Welcome, Slappy! If you plan on taking longer rides (over a couple of hours), I think the sargent seat is a great upgrade. The bike won't perform better, but you will . Be safe!

I am very inclined with the tools and do not mind doing the work to my bike. Thanks for taking the time to give your knowledge and a little conversation about bikes.
