Congratulations! Great looking bike and the brown seat looks great! I test rode an M8 RK last Oct and I'm smitten. Enjoy the hell out of that thing!

Hoping to avoid that with my hands slightly lower.
Bought the same bike in the same color Figure the silver is going to be the limited one you see around and they just look damn good. Far as the bars try the stock ones for a while, more I ride with mine the more I like them. Doubt I upgrade at this point.

Nice. I'm loving mine. In the process of installing 16 inch LA Choppers. So far, i'm finding it to be much easier then my old 2011 SG. The connectors are smaller and for the TBW, harley rolled up some excess from the factory so it doesn't have to be extended.

Good looking scoot, congrats. That seat is perfect and really sets it off.

All I can say is once you get to put some miles on that M8 you will love it

So I removed the saddle bag guards and added a brown leather windshield bag to match the seat yesterday after work.
