I got 65cm. Since the fender is on I measured rim lip to rim lip(44cm) then outside of tire to rim lip(10.5cm). So 44 + 10.5 X 2=65. I hope that helps.

Anyone seen any picts with bags on it besides the swing arm bags? I've seen some kits but all of them require the moving of the turn signals.. I kind of like the signals where they are..

I don't have a Slim, but I hope I can chime in here. You are gonna have a hard time finding any that won't require moving the signals with the way they are on the Slim. I always thought a cool idea would be to get some exhaust like these:


... and then throw on a 5" wide Garage Leathers swingarm bag on both the left and right side of the bike. Never seen it, but I bet it would look bad ***.

Picked mine up two weeks ago and am extremely happy with it. The ride is smooth and planted. Here's a pick... Oh and the crotch rocket in the background was my trade-in.

Here's mine with a few freebee mods. Relocated tag mount from what was an ugly location to me (too high) to the swing arm. Removed stickers and reflectors.
