Wed - road down to USC in Columbia is see one of the former youth group kids. LOVE IT when I can integrate the bike into work. Meandered back through Camden and Lancaster. 10 hours, 250 miles, sunny skies!! Bike needs washing.

shotsailor · 10-23-2009, 02:53 AM

Nice black headlight..and very nice bar spainbiker...I like the other black accents.
Your licencenseplate is as big as the ones here...in the Netherlands.
Those american guys are lucky with the small plates....but we don't have that silly reflectors at the side of the bike...

spainbiker · 10-23-2009, 08:00 AM

Yes , its a big plate...
here, any bikers fix a small one, but it is illegal. Well , not everything can be perfect

.

Regards to the Netherlands!

TNM50 · 10-23-2009, 08:06 AM

Hey, I don't have reflectors! Previous owner took them off.

RAddiction · 10-23-2009, 08:44 AM

Spainbiker, what are the vents on the sides of the radiator? And where can I get them?

Johnnie · 10-24-2009, 05:45 PM

Weather crappy so I polished it up.

onemilmhz · 10-25-2009, 12:05 AM

Removed the hideous stock turn signals and installed el cheapo low profile LED's. WAY better looking for around 25 bucks. Still waiting on my custom speedo face and black mirrors.

onemilmhz · 10-25-2009, 12:09 AM

Some pics of the rear...

KTSSU · 10-25-2009, 01:55 PM

Made the M sit still for a couple of photographs.

onemilmhz · 10-25-2009, 06:56 PM

Finally got the 2.5" drop kit installed. Love the look but the lower ride is AWESOME!!!

TNM50 · 10-25-2009, 07:57 PM

KTSSU, M50 looking good. Used to live in VA but glad TN doesn't have inspection. I would hate to have to ride around with that sticker on my bike.

nativenyerintexas · 10-26-2009, 02:45 AM

Road to a BACA meeting today and when I got home I put my horns upside don't so they down catch water when I wash the bike.

Waiting on my BackOff XP to come in the mail and my Biker's Choice dual filament Mini Bullets so I can get more light back there.

Nice video Gerogia! I really like the helmet cam setup, makes the person watching it actually feel like their on the bike. I like those mirrors as well. Are they hard to see out of? I've been wanting some new ones for my bike but I worry I won't be able to see very well with them. I have broad shoulders and even with the stockers after adjustment my shoulders still block a little bit of them.

Man you must be a big dude!!! LOL

I love the looks of my mirrors but in your case you probably wouldn't like them from a functionality standpoint. They are much smaller and teardrop shaped so you see alot less than the stock mirrors.

I'm used to them now (took me awhile) and they don't bother me and I can see enough so that their safe and I always check my blind spot before I lane change anyway.

You might want to consider the C90 or C50 stock mirrors which are more rounded and look nicer but still allow for good rear viewing. Thanks for the compliment on the video.
