Default Update....

47mpg out of this tank of gas. And this motherfucking bike handles like a dream on a twisty road. And, uh, yes...that 47mpg was twisty thrashing. Back to you.

The seat is hidden nicely under the cowl.


That pic is a month or two old...I have since polished the headers...and they look awesome.

How much of a pain is it to remove and replace your pass pegs? I use to just swap 'em out whenever I took her for a ride. Only took 5-10 minutes.

Two bolts each, 5/16" allen wrench... I think. Not hard after the first time you break the thread locker. Of course, I only took mine off... 10 minute job.
