Wife's best friend was the mgr @ BLORA (Belton) dock, and usually go 2-3x /wk to Dana Peak (northshore park of Stillhouse lake) for hiking and running. Went to school @ K-State so the topography was pretty similar (Flint Hills vs. Hill Country) so I didn't mind it at all.

Since I was married the whole time, didn't go to 6th St. that much. A couple of times, I suppose, and had fun.

What part of Alabama you in? I will be going to Benning in July.

Alright guys, my turn. Here's my baby. Lets see. I'm lowered 2 1/4 inches, mirrors, grip, int tail light, rear turn signals, mesh inserts, pink rim stripes and what I'm most proud of....the M109 risers and bars. I really want to do something to the rear fender. Blue Reaper your fender is really cool. How did you make it so snug against the rear fender, did you removed the support for the passenger seat?
My latest pic is the first one and it kinda sucks.....

Most recent black forks. Black levers, drag bar, and mirrors will be in friday. Just did the pwrcmdr3, HIGHLY recommended for any engine mods you ever do.....

And yes I got married ON the M50 at a ride up window in las vegas! Trailered bike from GA to LV 4200miles there and back 70hours..........I was secretly marring the 50, just don't tell the woman in the pic.......she gets half now....

Very Nice! Did the 109 risers pull the bars back further than stock? Was a direct bolt on without any modifications?

The risers and bars made alot of difference. I'm not sure of the exact number. Search on my posts and you will see where I gave some info. I'm not sure without looking back what I said though...LOL I did have to reroute the cables and my dad had to drill the triple tree holes larger for the larger bolts that the 109 needed. I love the 109 and actually have a hybrid now with a little 109 in my M50...

I have a 3" lowering kit on my bike and I removed the old rear fender with the supports when I put the new fendre on my bike.
