Default The winter mod process begins!!!!

It's winter, I got cash and I'm spending it! Here's my list so far.

1. Supertrapp Mean Mothers II drag pipes (ordered - M&M Cycle)
2. Arlen Ness Big Sucker Stage 1 AC kit (ordered - M&M Cycle)
3. Power Commander V (odered - Fuel Moto)
4. True Track (EDIT ordered on 12/3)
5. C&C Sport Tour Seat (Ordering next week)
6. Bullet Headllamp (need suggestions here - HD or Kury, or someone else?)

I'm also looking into new wheels. I want to see what these black bolted legend wheels will look like so I'm going to have to visit our friends in the photoshop section soon. http://www.xtrememachineusa.com/cust...achine_060.htm If I go with these wheels (or ones similar) I may go with blacked out lower forks. Again, the photoshop pics will determine whether I do or not.

Other than that I'll be doing some smaller mods, primary cover, ac cover, pegs/grips/levers and maybe a tank lift.

It may be a little while before I get everything done but I'll post photos as it's coming along. Any suggestions, thoughts or comments would be appreciated.

Yeah it is quite a list. I've waited a long time though and I'm glad I did. What I had in mind 10 months ago isn't even an option now. This forum has given me a lot of great ideas. I'm pretty excited about this. I've been watching you guys have all the fun for the past year or so, now it's my turn. LOL
