I'm glad you got your regulator problem all take care of, does this mean the new bike is on hold for a while? Not that there is anything wrong with starting a fleet.

Glad you can ride Jack again sunny!

plates in texas have to be lit. so that becomes a problem with those side plate holders...

i'm thinking of a plate holder to match the battery case. made of barbeque grill... painted flat black, of course.

the newer bike went on hold when the guy wouldn't let me ride while paying it off. the new bike? no credit for me.

Kurakyn makes those LED bolts which I need to order, though the locals don't give me much grief for night riding at the moment.

But even a small bulb can be worked out. hehe....ok going to think of a design for ya later just for sh#*s and giggles.

Congrats, riding to work is just slightly better than going to work at all, but it is better.

I try to ride to work as much as possible.

Of course you could save up for the possible Blue Ridge parkway run that Outlaw is conjuring up.
