Default Mods done - DXR, Suspension, Brakes

Got the winter mods done:

- ME880's
- Drag Bar and 7" pullback risers
- Powdercoat lowers
- Had the rear exhaust bracket welded to add diagonal support and box in the back of the brace
- Front suspension dropped 1" with RaceTech fork springs and emulsifiers
- Rear shocks, 300mm YSS Z-366TRL
- HogPro/Lyndall floating rotors with Z-plus pads
- Alloy Art DXR stabilizer

Don't have a full suspension review. Just finished the tire break-in period. Definitely rides and brakes better. Also steers straight around the sweepers. Happy with the results so far.

The brakes are a lug type full floaters


Here is the DXR looking from the back


And looking from the front


Finally, a couple of the latest shots of the bike.

Completely different. The True TracK and Sputhe are both similar. The Alloy Art DXR triangulates the motor from the rear isolator only.

Mud posted some more info and pics here.

Great looking work. Love to see guys moding for the sake of improving the ride. Always been a fan of you and your bikes. The dual speedo/tach set up looks great.

looks awesome ice. Questions, is that a "dual" blinker setup you are running? And, in the attached picture, what's in the circle? Is it a scrape of some sort?

Nice work. So did you decide to ditch the crash bar and spoiler? And what risers and gauge mount are you using? I've thought about going a similar route, but I have a short reach and don't want to be too far forward.
