Previously I had Heli-Bars on my bike and I was not that crazy about them. I did not like the way they looked and they actually raised things...
As Arnsinator already noticed, I painted the radiator screens white. I did this with my first bike and I personally think it looks fantastic on...
Yes and good eye! I am hoping that I will have the bodywork all waxed and put back on the bike this weekend so that I can take some "after"...
On my first bike, I added a pinstripe to the windscreen and liked the way it looked. This time around, I wanted to do the same thing but went...
I tried something new with the front rim when it was powder coated. I had them tape around the hub area on both sides so that it would remain...
I have gotten the rims back from being powder coated and am pleased with the results regarding the removal of the raised lettering. For...

Thanks for exploring this for us. Like your previous bike, I have a 6th Gen and can take the fairing off in my sleep. I have found that on the...
Careful ... I might take you up on that :) That is a great to hear. I've busted both ankles in the past due to MX injuries and even to this...

Here in NY, I start riding in late March and can go all the way through early November. I stop after the first snowfall when the salt has hit the...
Let's hope this excursion doesn't have the "excitement" of the last one. I'm looking forward to the ride reports. Keep it on 2 wheels!!!
Great looking bike. Congratulations and welcome to the forum.
I would have driven to TN myself to get that for $1500. What a great find. Before my 6th Gen, I bought a brand new '99 and loved it. It was a...
Today I got the brake fluid changed along with getting the entire linked braking system bled. I do have the service manual and it is covered on...
It does seem antiquated doesn't it? I've done online banking with Chase since the late 90's, but there are some things that you still need to...
The hard cases are a nice addition. Have you gotten them installed yet? Pictures?
